Hell be pleased if I phone to ask him how he is.
It will make me look considerate and he likes considerate people.
Hell be reassured to see that I havent lost interest,
Which might make him happy and then Ill have done him a favour.
If I phone him right now Ill get to speak to him sooner
Than I will if I sit around waiting for him to phone me.
He might not want to phone me from work in case someone hears
And begins (or continues) to suspect that theres something
Between us.
If I want to and dont, arent I being a bit immature?
Were both adults. Does it matter, with adults, who makes the
First move?
But theres always the chance hell back off if I come on too strong.
The less keen I appear, the more keen hes likely to be,
And I phoned him twice on Thursday and once on Friday.
He must therefore be fully aware that its his turn, not mine.
If I make it too easy for him, hell assume Im too easy,
While if I make no effort, that leaves him with more of a challenge.
I should demonstrate that I have a sense of proportion.
His work must come first for a while and I shouldnt mind waiting.
For all I know he could have gone off me already
And if I dont phone I can always say, later, that I went off him first.
