A guy who I haven't spoken to in like two years, text messaged me and said he'd like to start over and try again. We never even dated, but he kept insisting that we now move on to that date he promised me two years ago. I asked him why did he decide that now was the best time to reach out. His response? He moved back to NY and was looking through his phone and remembered how beautiful I was. As I'm sitting there engaging via text with him, I can't stop thinking about how weird this is. I mean dude keeps on insisting that we meet for Mexican and then out of nowhere, tells me he only dates black girls. That's when I start getting scared. I feel like the news outlets have me thinking everyone means me harm. I'm thinking i'm gonna end up with a rapist, a terrorist, a racist, a sexist....the list goes on. It's like I can no longer spot a normal guy. Is this guy normal? Is his behavior normal? I mean all he keeps asking for is a date. But, I guess I'm nervous because of the insistence in which he keeps asking. Instead of saying lets get to know each other a little better, he's like lets go out. I mean it is just a date right?
Anyway, if anyone has advice or can help me look at things a bit more clearly I'd be extremely grateful. I'd hate to ward off this guy because my sense of judgement is off.
