NM, you are SO right. And Mr. A is SUCH a player. I just tried to call him back and he let it go to voicemail.

On his message - which he FINALLY left on the third try to get me - he said this (paraphrased): Hey, I'm not calling you for any nefarious purpose tonight. I just wanted to see if we could go golfing sometime. Oh, and I wanted to tell you that I got a job today. It's a pretty big deal. Ok, well I hope you call me back. Bye!

Now that I write it down, it is so manipulative.
