So today I saw an old friend and former roommate of mine for the first time in about 5 months. We talked for a while and caught up a little bit, and we started discussing relationships and the like.
He was extremely excited to tell me that he thinks he may have found a new girlfriend, so I began asking him about her. Story goes that he met this girl at a Starbucks about two weeks ago, and they talked very briefly. Few days later they run into each other outside his appartment, and he asks her if she'd like to go out to dinner.
They end up going to dinner, and THAT NIGHT they end up hooking up at his appartment. They've talked on the phone twice, and that's the only contact they've had since, and he said he was a bit distraught about that. He said he's called her everyday, however she doesn't return his calls.
He was absolutely convinced that she was the right girl for him and that he had to get with her, and I told him to be a bit cautious because it appeared to me to only be a fling, and that there was really nothing there. He seemed pretty dead set on the idea that they should be together, but to me it seems like there's really no chance. I told him that he needed to build a more solid foundation with this girl (ie something other than just sex), however he insisted that he had enough information and experience to tell that she was the right girl.
What do you think? Should I tell him to remain focused on this seemingly nonexistant relationship, or just tell him to let it go? :dunno:
