I was thinking about some time, whether it took an hour or an hour-and-a-half to walk somewhere.

Then I figured it was confabulation, "I didn't have a phone back then so it's not like I could have known the time."

But I used to wear a watch. I could have checked the time on my watch.

I'd advocate stepping out there despite the fear.
Interesting how you assumed he was talking about a woman, or romance.

If you ask her and she says 'no,' how are you worse off than never asking?

If you try to make something of yourself and fail are you more greatly harmed than if you'd done nothing but watch things go by?
Also, if it's a woman she could disembowel him on the spot and all existence down to the horizon would implode to feast on his dust.
