I've dated so many jerks the past 6 months, I really deserved a good night with a guy...(I'm going to refer to him as 'Caleb')
Caleb and I were friends in high school. I liked him when he wasn't interested in me and he liked me when when I was no longer interested... we stayed friends but lost touch when I left for college. Almost 4 years later we started having short conversations via facebook... exchanged numbers and occasionally had lengthy text message conversations.
After not hearing from him for a few months I heard a song that reminded me of him from back in high school. So I texted him about it and he was amused. After another long texting conversation he asked me to go to this billiards place with he and his friends. I went and it turned out to be a great night.
When I got out of my car, this boy... or should I now say 'man' has gotten even more attractive over the years! He gave me a huge hug and told me that I smell and look good. He introduced me to his friends and bought me a drink. Caleb and his friends are so good at pool!
When I played Caleb he was giving me lots of pointers and of course found a reason to touch my waist while helping me play. I was still awful lol but I still had fun. Especially when I had 5 striped balls left and Caleb just needed to get the 8 ball in. He bet me a drink that he could get all of my stripe balls in AND the 8 ball before I could get just the 8 ball in--he did, and it was hot.
Four drinks later I had a really good buzz and Caleb was extra flirty. He would pull me into his lap, rub my neck & back, and kiss my shoulders. I'm typically not into pda but it actually didn't bother me for once. And whenever I'd move somewhere else Caleb would eventually follow me or come over and ask me to join him. The place closed at 2am and the night didn't end there.
We went to his place and the strangest thing... the power was out! So we lit a few candles and sat outside on the deck to talk. It was such a romantic environment... We had a lot of deep conversations... we started reminiscing about high school and how we missed out on each other, things we hated about high school, how and why his last relationship ended (1 month ago), discussed racism and interracial dating (he is white), and how he loves his mother and his little brother who is half black...
By 3am, we moved inside. Held hands while sitting on the couch. He told me for about the 3rd time that night that he thinks I'm absolutely gorgeous
. But I called him out by saying he was always a smooth talker, but he swore he wasn't just talking. He even said "I'll even pinky promise.." lol. He went on to say that he never has trouble getting girls and that he never has to try but with me he feels himself trying so hard... and then he stopped himself and said well, I'm not trying really hard but... I don't know, it's hard to explain---Um... say what?? 
We kissed a bit. I kept pulling away though. I didn't give him the opportunity to get into a heated make out session. And eventually I had to go. He walked me to the car and I gave him a short kiss goodbye after asking him to call me...He smiled and said "of course." He told me to call him if I get lost---and I did lol. When I called him we ended up talking on the phone all the way til I got home.
I told him how it was nice kissing someone who wasn't trying to get into my pants at the same time. He was shocked that I experience that all the time. He told me that if I wanted to, I could have driven back home in the morning... and that he would sleep on the couch and I could sleep in his bed. I was shocked by this. He told me to turn around so he could prove it to me because he would like to be able to see me in the morning... He also made a comment about how he can tell I don't just trust anyone... --I didn't realize I had my guard up that much.
When I made it home he asked me what my schedule was like so we could spend time together again. Then we got off the phone. I got home at 4am...
The next day, I got a text from him saying "Thanks for hanging out with us last night. Had fun." I texted him back saying "I had fun too. I'm glad you invited me." An hour later I asked him a question about the whole power outage situation... and he told me what he found out. But now TODAY... I haven't heard from him.
I don't get it! And it's driving me crazy because I keep thinking about how great last night was. I want to see him again.. real soon. I even thought about calling or texting him if I don't hear from him. Maybe that isn't a good idea. I don't know. Thoughts? I thought we really had something going on, especially since he seemed interested in seeing me again at the end of the night. SIGH.

You text him and make the reconnection and now you are waiting for his call.
I guess I don't see it as chasing him since we have always been platonic friends before that one night.
