Guys: This One Technique Will Have Women BEGGING You To Give Them Your Phone Number!
When you are dating someone with mild depression, is it okay to be the one who calls and invites them out?
I am dating a guy who is mildly depressed. I have never done this before. Usually the guy will ask me out on dates, etc. However, my boyfriend is shy and gets depressed. Is it okay to call him and invite him out? I love being with him. But I also don't want to come across as a nag or as someone who just wont leave him alone. What should I do?
The tactful way to handle this one is to pay him a visit in person. Call first and ask if it's cool to come by, and in the course of your visit with him, suggest that the two of you either go out later while you are there, or at some future time when you can both get together and have some fun together. If you can get comfortable on a short visit with him, it might just relax him enough to say a yes or a no to the idea of actually going out with you, or as a couple. Dropping in to say hi to him probably breaks some old rules, but in person like that, you could sort of read his mood and then you would know if you actually wanted to go further with him. The sooner you better understand his moods the better, as if you are with him, you will be on the other end of these moods, and you do not want them to be a bother to you. One person upset is enough. By being loving and supportive to him as a person first, you may find you want him to be more than a boyfriend to you. All of this takes time and maturity and lots of love and respect between the two of you. If he is too quiet and just makes you feel really awkward inside, then step back, wish him well, maybe tell him sometime you'll call him later in the week, and leave quietly. He needs to know he isn't going to throw you for a loop if his moods aren't right or if he's feeling down. The steadier you can be the quicker he can reset his compass on something besides his moods. Good luck to you getting to know him better. The better you know anyone, the quicker you will know exactly how to handle yourself in any circumstance. Have a great summer, no matter what, now, and sent with love from Chris, in South Portland, Maine, U.S.A. (I am 63 yrears old.)
