Hey all, Just a quick question for any pisces guys (or girls) with a little insight for me. I a cancer girl who recently met a pisces guy at school. we were in the same class at the university, and after chatting a couple times, I emailed him my number and told him if he was ever in my area to give me a call (we live 20 min away form each other). Two days later he called me so I could have his number, and this past thursday he asked me to lunch. The next day we met, went to lunch and had a nice time. He refused to let me pay and walked me a few blocks to my car and said he'd call sunday when he was in "my town" again. Im really into politics as is he, so we had a pretty decent conversation and he joked that I should make a list of issues to discuss the next time we get together...I told him he'd have to clear his whole night if I did that and he basically said that was his intention. My issue is that during lunch, I asked him how old he was and he said 24 (im just turning 26) but he has an online profile that says he graduated highschool (in another country) in 2000, which I would assume would make him around 30. I didn't push the issue, but I feel like he lied about it. I understand being at the university can be difficult for "older" people since an overwheling majority of the students are right around 20. But, if he lied about this, I feel like he'll lie about anything...so, was he interested in me and thought maybe his age would freak me out...or is that something that people lie about alot? Also, Friends told me what we had was a date, but I didn't want to assume since it was just lunch

well, Im 26 and tend to be one of the oldest students in any class I take out there. Ive talked to a lot of different people throughout my time there and he just came off as much more mature than the others, plus I had seen on his online profile that he graduated highschool in 200. I graduated in 2004 so I assumed he was older than me, but seeing as he comes from a different country I thought age of graduation there might be different than here. So, i asked him. Also, at this point in my life Im not really looking for a college fling - I have a daughter- and Ive found that most of the guys younger than me are (rightfully so) not interested in what Im looking for.

Well, Pisces men are very good for Cancer women so long as the following is in place:

1.) The Pisces man is 5-10 years older. A woman who is 5-10 years younger than her man is most likely on the same maturity level as he is. Dating someone exactly your age is always a bad idea, since Cancer is one of the more evolved signs in the Zodiac in terms of mental/emotional intelligence and perception.

2.) The Pisces has had a relationship before, and knows how to behave himself with someone else. Speaks for itself.

3.) Yes, he may tell a little lie every now and again about his age, because it may embarrass him to admit he is 31 and in the college. Maybe that doesn't make him feel well. To be honest, I am 34, and not a fan of saying that I am 34 sometimes. It's more fun to say that I am 30, so maybe that's what it is. I doubt he is a liar by default, since most people in their 30's fudge a little about the exact number that comes with the 30.

Do you like him a lot? Maybe you should ask him out to ice cream or a cup of coffee some time. Make things a little more personal, but not too serious. What do you think?

He may not be lying and graduated earlier. If it's such a big deal ask him when he graduated and/or about his high school years. Usually pisces are open books (well we do like to keep our secrets) if they like you.

If he did lie and he is older...is that really a bad thing? Like scorp said he may just be fudging his age. Yeah lying isn't good but meh...I dunno. I just say dig deeper if it's worth it to you.

P- angel, I know 20 minutes is 20 minutes but we are in completely different cities. 27 miles of cornfields in between us- which is why I said if he's in the area. I later found out he attends a church in my city so that worked out well.

tbird & scorpiofish- The difference in age wouldn't/bother me at all. like I said, I'm 26 with a child and most of the college guys I've met have been younger and pretty immature (relationship wise). But, I've been burned in the past by guys who lied ( though it was usually much bigger than age). So, when he said 24 it made me nervouse about the whole "if they lie about something small what else will they lie about" thing. I do enjoy his company quite a bit. I asked him if he would be interested in getting together again sometime in the near future and he replied, yes for sure. I just don't know how to bring up the subject again without sounding ilke a total creeper...

Just in that casual get to know stage. So for instance... Did you grow up here? Where did you go to school at? Did you like it? What extracircular activites did you do? So when did you graduate? Oh wow wait you said your 26 and you graduated in 2000? So what are you like a genuis or something?

Like that...no biggie....not all of these like in rapid fire but if you start on a path similar to this he wouldn't feel like it was the spanish inquisition especially if you state oh I went to school here, graduated at this time...blah, blah, blah.

BTW I never lied about my age. I totally get what you're saying. I don't trust liars either I would just be more inquisitive and not brand him a liar just yet...until you actually catch him in a lie. Then it's up to you to give him another shot or tell him to kiss off.

From one student and parent to another...good luck on your studies hun! College is so hard, but it's completly worth it in the end!!

P- angel, I know 20 minutes is 20 minutes but we are in completely different cities.







To an adult who has a car, a 20 minute drive is like a walk in the park ... you must be 12 years old if you would make a deal out of a 20 minute distance between you.

Surely, he picked up on that and is chuckling, wondering about your maturity level.

No that's just you, because you're a broken fish. No one else thought about that. Actually some of my friends don't drive that far, gas prices cost too much.

Do you have anything to say that isn't negative or slamming people? Seriously?!

You can't slam her for being cautious so you have to find a way to do it so you reduced yourself to bitching about miles? LMFAO!! Kudos.

I wasn't making a big deal about the miles and don't see how I implied I was- I told him if he was ever in my area to call and I told him that I would be in and out of "his area" throughout the summer. It's now our summer break, meaning I won't be spending nearly as much time there, unless given a good reason.

No, I havent gotten to talk to him about it yet. Our initial lunch was Friday. He called me on Sunday but I missed his call. He did leave me a voicemail telling me happy mothers day and he said that he was going to call me while he was still in my city (he goes to church here) but that things came up and he had just left and gotten home. Then he said he would talk to me another time. (I wasn't sure what to make of this). I was baking when I missed the call so I texted him shortly after to tell him thanks for the voicemail and that I was having a good day - he didn't respond. I texted him yesterday and asked if he would be interested in getting together sometime in the near future and he replied with, yes for sure. I told him then that I would be free this weekend and to let me know when he'll have free time and we can work something out. As of now I haven't heard from him and I haven't said anything else to him

So, as of now he hasn't responded to my last text. I' sure I'm just being weird about this, but can someone give me a little insight please. He called me on sunday like he said he would but I missed the call. I responded via text (realizingnow I should have called) and when I asked monday if he wanted to get together again he said, yes for sure. I responed that I'd be free this weekend an to let me know when he'd be free so we could work something out. I havent heard from him since. So, did he just decided he's not interested or is this something that guys (and/or pisces guys) do?
