Jeanea is going to Boston
Jeanea, 31, from Michigan, asks:
Hi, I hope you still remember me. You have advised me earlier on 15 and 18 Sept. I am going to Boston in 2 weeks. As my trip is short, only 5 days, I wish I can meet the "busy" guy. What is the best approach in your opinion so that he will make time for me? Should I contact him before leaving for Boston or contact him when I reach Boston. Thank you.
VictorM's advice:
I remember you. And I hope you keep us informed of how your trip turned out.
As I remember, part of the problem could have been a misunderstanding of what you meant when you turned him down to go to weddings as his date. You might have left him with the impression that you weren't interested in him.
I wouldn't bring any of that up, but I'd say contact him, tell him when you are going to be in Boston, say that you want to meet with him and in a light tone say you won't take no for an answer. Don't end the contact with a Yes or No answer, instead, just ask him to pick the date, time and place and you'll be there.
He sounds like a polite person, so there's a chance he won't turn you down if you're that forceful. Besides, I think his ego needs to hear that you are interested in him and that you're willing to go out of your way for him.
But I remind you, he may be seeing someone already (unless you know that's not the case).
