Take deep breaths. Don’t let these thoughts get to you. If he calls,let it ring but don’t answer.
Let him know after your interview that you were away on an important family call/ in the restroom (make something up).
Best of luck!!

As opposed to doing what?

Yes, phone on silent in another room. Out of sight and out of mind as much as possible. If your boss is the type that you need to give an excuse, there are plenty of valid ones. Bathroom, phone battery low and on charge, accidentally silenced.

Good luck!!

been talking to this girl since a year. Different cities, met on a trip.
Both are text person so talking happens over chats. No calls.
But I am not sure if she's into me.
Few things which make me believe that she's into me-
-everyday good morning goodnight texts, sharing posts about relationships throughout the day
-sharing her childhood memories, pics
Things which make me feel otherwise-
-she casually mentioned 'find a girl first' over a Convo about fantasies.

Maybe I’m biased due to having poor luck, but why is dating so hard? Everyone just wants the next best thing and no one is ever satisfied. One argument and people sprint for the door instead of reconciling as they have “options.”

I honestly don’t think true love is a real thing.
