trying to make good...

It took me days to return a call from GO--the friend of friend--who asked me out. I mean, it took me two days to call, and he said had to call back, which he did but left a message. Then, it took me like 4 days to call him back, because I didn't know how to say no. Hoping that the delay would be a hint, I thought I could escape the awkwardness, but alas no. We chatted, I said I'd been busy, he said would you like to get together again. I hummed hawed hummed. And said, I had fun, really I did, but I'm sort of dating someone, I think. Which, is the truth.
