Jeff never came on Sunday or Monday for that matter, but Tuesday morning around 7:30am he calls me.
"Hi Dating Diva, it's Jeff. Will you be around this morning so I can finish fixing the furnace?"
"It depends. Are you bringing anyone with you?" I say with a laugh.
"My Uncle?" Oh, he already forgot who I was talking about.
"Oh no. I just meant..."
"Oh! Did he call you on Sunday?"
"No, did you say anything to him?"
"Yeah, I told him 'You should call her,' and he told me, 'I just might do that.'"
HUGE smile on my face.
He continued, "But I think he's waiting to get paid before he does."
"Oh no, I don't mean I want him to call me to fix anything in my house. I mean when I saw him, I was like wow. I want him to ask me on a date."
He laughs and I feel stupid for revealing that Nick wowed me. "That's what I mean, he was going to call you to go out. He's just waiting to get paid from this lady he is doing work for. You know, so that he has some cash flow."
Ok I understand not asking a girl out until you have money, but why can't you call her to get to know her before you actually ask her out? Guys help me out here.
Still, the fact that he said he may call shows there is some interest on his part, right?

Oh, I totally did that last week. Altough for a girl-date but anyways. You don't wanna be suggested for "the day after tomorrow" and have to decline because you got no cash at all. Better to wait just a little and woo you the right way!
I'm sure it's because he wants to go out with you and not just linger on the phone for days.
I kind of like this guy! Putting all his ducks in a row before he asks you :) It's perfectly understandable for him to want to know he can take you out if he wants to. Would be embarassing to call and then say he has to wait for money! Or skirt around the subject, blah blah. I love that you have Jeff to be the go-between!

If he called and didn't ask you out, you'd be like "why didn't he ask me out??"..
i've never had a money issue but i'd think there are plenty of date ideas that don't cost much.. so that is a bit of a red flag i suppose if he really lives so week to week with money.
Ok so it is about to be Thursday and no phone call. Really why would a guy wait this long? Obviously I am talking to other guys in the meantime, but when it comes down to it, I REALLY want to go out with Nick. It's making me have the urge to text him for no good reason. Trying to have restraint!
