I am chatting to a really great guy. We chat, text, facebook and are even thinking about meeting in the future...What troubles me is that I told him I bet he looked good in a suit because he just got an office job...His response was, " Yeah, I do. I really look good in a suit." No thank you or modest answer... Should I be turned off by that or let it go?

WG, maybe he was trying to peak your interest? Don't you want to see for yourself now?

no, there's nothing wrong with that. Would you feel better if he said, ..
no, I'm fat and ugly and I look like crap in a bathing suit?? Maybe he is just confident..better than beating himself up. Besides when they say that they probably don't look as good as they think they do...

Nothing a (very large) can of Mace and a .357Magnum in your purse couldn't handle.

I wouldn't personally be interested in meeting anybody off of the Internet, but that's me.

What kind of tone did he use? Perhaps he meant it in a playful manner. It's hard to say.

Wow, he actually did say he looked like crap in a bathing suit ...He is neither fat or ugly....Well, I don't think so anyway
(thanx for the help people's )

He told me the same thing before he broke up with me

Stop thinking so hard! You'll find out what he is really like when you meet! It is only a sentence traveling through electronic wires!



He was smart enough to break up with the monkey!!

Maybe he does look good in a suit....?

I mean, what's wrong with someone acknowledging a positive?

People are always saying to me, "Hey, you're a really good writer, but you look terrible in a suit."

And I say, "Yeah, that's true, I'm a good writer."

I don't know about the suit part, since I never wear them, but you know how people like to extrapolate....

Confidence is good! If he was a conceited prick about everything you'd know by now.

That my dear, is your first red flag. Now, pay attention to them. Maybe even write them down for reference.

I would let it go maybe he just got the job is excited over it ..
Good Luck

He's simply encouraging you in a flirty way to think that thought some more... i.e. "looks" are part of the dating game, so he is just playing... It might be you are the one he needs to run from because you have this mis-trust/dis-trust issue going already... that would make me run for the border for sure...

why would he respond "I'm ugly as hell, run like a rabid dog, baby, I'm nothing but problems..." (??)

What kind of person tries to read things into every little minor comment?

Jeesh...

People are the sum of all parts, NOT the falsely projected abstract view of one single ten word statement... give me a break... I would be asking myself why I wanted to hang out with you, since you are seemingly too paranoid to even deal/cope with such a minor thing... yikes...

Sorry, but he has a brain, and might just reply in a million different ways, and not necessarily in the extremely limited, pointed and projected way that you already determine that he should respond to you... ick...

Maybe he is jst a confident guy who takes pride in his appearance and you did ask him "i bet you look good in a suit" what would your reaction have been if he had said NO i look terrible? Anna x

I've had women tell me I look good in my birthday suit! be seeing you

soooooooooo MODEST Anna x

yes...but your Mother doesn't count

I've always had a huge...ego,it comes with being a genius. be seeing you

You have to ask??? A guy definitely should let go for that. In fact, I've seen guys hanged quartered and drawn for asking a girl "what's your favourite color?"

The nerve of this guy... how does he expect to go through a lifetime of bliss, devotion and marital squabbles if he says things like this?

JFC...

See, that kind of thing only makes me like a guy more. If I already like him. Now if a stranger said that, I'd be like "pfft, arrogant much?" but if I'm already enamored of him, I'm like squeeeee!
