Soooo...Can I call?

I was ready to hang up on Brian. Really. I was a little disheartened, but ready to move on and forget about him. (But always hanging onto the hope my friend gave me when another friend of hers didn't hear from an online suitor for over 3 weeks--then they re-hooked up and he was totally smitten and regretted ever acting like a typical guy.)

But I digress. (And if you don't know me--I really do talk like this in real life--I think ADD is contagious and I caught it from my students!)

I had a notice on my webmail--because my Earthlink account hasn't worked right for well over a week--that someone on the same personals site sent me an e-mail. I checked it out--not my type but I've decided to date beyond my type--especially when they are buff and manly. While there, I decided to check out Brian's profile. Guess what…he hasn’t been active online since last week! That would have been the same time he sent me that last e-mail telling me he is out of town on the west coast.

So, does that mean I can call him? Make the move so he knows I am still interested? Cuz I am! I really, really am! Or, is that the move of desperation?

Anyone?
