Are you getting close to solving that problem or just going around in circles? There’s no shame in seeking advice. You could use some guidance.
Expect to be invited, disinvited, and then invited again, but don’t be offended by the off-again on-again dance. Obviously someone’s nervous about meeting you.
You feigned disinterest to protect your feelings but now see that you sent the wrong message. Rectify the situation ASAP!
Don’t turn up your nose at an offer that seems beneath you. Within every humble acorn resides a mighty oak.
Don’t laugh at a friend’s sudden interest in reading Tolstoy’s War and Peace or desire to attend the ballet. You could benefit from getting a bit more culture too.
Charm and persuasion get you everywhere today. It may feel disingenuous, but there’s no disputing the results.
