sorry this is so high school me giving you guys the minute details of our interaction.
He replied straight away with Sure that sounds perfect. didn't even occur to me.

I am proud of this because......
a) I didn't fall into the bait of saying "of course I want to hang out with you. why would you think I wouldn't?" Because he either sense me detaching or he feels guilty ie I have a GF, W shouldn't still want to be my friend.
b) I didn't tell him what nights I was free. I didn't say what night works for you. I said how about Tuesday. done. Without telling him I was busy this day or free that day
c) I didn't tell him plans for tomorrow. I feel like in the past I've been so eager to prove that I'm GAL'ing that I give him a list of "look at me! look what I'm up to! I'm fun! I'm old Brit! Promise!"
d) I didn't ask about his weekend. I didn't react to anything in that comment. I just said cool. see you then. and I picked the date.

Please tell me this was successful DB'ing because I feel good. Oh and I didn't reply to his text.

Someone talked about "inviting heartbreak" on Verab's thread and it's true. I just invite heartbreak when I attempt to prolong a text convo.
