'dating' round a busy schedule

how does a busy girl 'date'?

well, she practically doesn't.

so i'm beginning to think that this french guy that i met through the online dating site might be a lil too sensitive and sorta strange...

he texted me and sorta did a roundabout way of asking when we could meet up without actually really asking. he mentioned that he already had a lot of dates during the weekend thanks to the online dating site. i'm not sure if he was serious 'coz he then asked which weekend i wanted.

i gave him the next available weekend i had which was 8th july.

french guy: ok. let's forget then.

okay, understand this... i'm an immensely busy girl... and to prove it (even at the risk of being ridiculous), i will give a run down of my activities in the coming weeks...

15th june (fri): planned 2 weeks advance to meet my guy friend who i haven't seen in ages
16th june (sat): planned to meet up with my party girl for dinner
17th june (sun): planned to meet another guy friend to go to the museum

18th - 21st june (mon-thur): school twice a week. planned to meet a friend i haven't seen in over a year. busy with an event at work.
22nd june (fri): church group gathering
23rd june (sat): helping a friend choose her wedding gown. and then at night going for another friend's hen's night party
24th june (sun): personal appointments

25th - 27th june (mon-wed): school twice a week.
28th june - 01 july (thur-sun): overseas on company trip

02nd - 06th july (mon-fri): catching up on work. school twice a week.
07th july (sat): part of the bridal party at my friend's wedding

08th july (sun): next available weekend

i mean there was a reason why i suggested 8th july. i wasn't trying to be coy or difficult.

but apparently he couldn't seem to understand, despite me outlining my schedule.

french guy: i know what i told you but i finally came back to *insert name of online dating site*. maybe i will find someone who will really want to know me this time. bye bye.

well he did say hi to me later on IM and we had a chat. if he still wants to say goodbye, i can't and won't stop him. afterall it's not like i haven't already had to deal with a recent goodbye. and besides after this incidence, i'm really rethinking if he's suitable. he seems too sensitive. and we're not even together or anything and already he's assuming that i would be unhappy and wouldn't allow him to go drinking with his friends. goodness, i don't care at all. i understand the whole drinking to deal with some issues thing. so i mean go ahead and have fun with your friends.

he made some remark bout seeing me on 8th july... and then later he got sidetracked bout something and i'm not sure if it's confirmed. maybe i'll check in with him the next time we chat... if it's still a go, i'll meet him. but i'm still not sure if i'm liking this feeling i have that i have to walk on eggshells with him...

he texted me later while on the way out to drink with his friends...

french guy: thank you jo. sorry for what i told you. i can be complicated sometimes. you know what? you start to be special to me. good night.

and now he's making me feel worried that i might wind up hurting him without really meaning to just 'coz he's so sensitive...
