So G, you are getting the turtle? Hey, I didn't believe you were head over heels about the guy...I picked up your concern was the same as mine, he was assuming an intimacy that wasn't yet there. When he wouldn't let you off the phone even though you tried, that concerned me. It says he's not respectful of your needs and the sexual texts don't surprise me! I think you were trying to give him a fair chance and he did, on the surface, have some good points. Just don't let this guy stop you from trying again. I've had times too where I've had enough of the sh!t that people pull...had one a month or so ago...a friend of a friend. So, lick your wounds and look at how you might have handled this differently e.g. pulling the plug when you first felt uncomfortable. I've learned that in dating, online or off, to go with my gut. If something makes me uncomfortable then I pay attention now...mostly. Every bad experience I've had is because I've ignored my gut (and in the last experience I ignored something that seemed not right...because she was a friend of a friend). I'm not desperate and neither are you...but then I have a turtle!
