I had a phone call tonight. A guy asking me what time we were supposed to bowl next. I told him and wondered why he called me, and not his team mates.
Well then he said he was going out of town shopping tommarow, and wondered if I wanted to go also. I told him I was working. Then we talked a while about kids and tuff. At the end of the convo, he said. Well now you have my number, call me if you ever want to do antyhing.


Was he basically asking me out or what?

Sounds like it. Ditch him and go out with me instead.

That was a feeler call.

Or he's trying the ol' "friendship" thing because he heard grrls like being friends.

Ha!

He'll call again. But first he'll say something in front of everyone at bowling.

When he does, pretend you didn't hear it.

He probably thought he was slick and smooth too.

Well if you like him go for it!

The beauty of his call is that it is totally open-ended. If you stick to friends-type signals (i.e. "hugz," kiss-on-the-cheek conversions, etc.) then he has the opportunity to reframe your relationship as "just friends." Or you can go the other way.

Regardless of that, every group dynamic is made up of pairs of people. As such, the strength of a group relationship is based on individual relationships. Which is to say, some time alone with group individuals can be a really good thing.

He is testing the waters

It seems to me that he is obviously testing the waters. Of course I can't tell what the inflection in his voice was but from what you wrote I can't think of any other explanation. If this had been normal for him to call it would be one thing but if he called out of the blue then he is definitely letting you know that he is interested but doing so in a way that saves him and you any embarrassment if you do not share his interest.

Dam, I must say that I'm jealous! How come my work never leads me to Iowa?!!

 

[sexy-girl]

if he has all his teeth and he's a good bowler why not meet him for coffee ?

you can't ask people out without it being a "date" then when you're having coffee maybe you'll both know if you should "date"


i don't know why im replying im rubbish at this sort of stuff

Of course he was, and you uncerimoniously blew him off. I'd be curious to know if he'll even look you in the eye on the next league night ... or will he drown his shame in beer from bottles shaped like bowling pins and buffalo wings.

 

[modest mouse]

Seems like a perfectly fine way of seeing if you wanted to do soemthign together. if you think you might enjoy spending time with him check it out. if it doesnt go anywhere, no biggie.

I think the guy probably knows that the two of you have interactions that might be harmed if he flatout asked you out and you said no. Hes opening the door tot he two of you spending time togehter separate from your circels of friends/bowlers, etc.

Nothing wrong with that.

They make beer bottles shaped like buffalo wings? That just seems weird.
