nyr81 Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 There's this girl that i've been trying to go out with. We met a few weeks ago and I got her number. We tried to go out one night but she had plans with her roommate from college. When that fell through she texted me to find out if I could go out. Unfortunately, I had already made plans to work that night. We then met coincidentally at a baseball game (she just happened to have tickets to the same game). We flirted a bit and she kissed me goodbye (on the cheek) before going back to her friends. Further attempts to score a date with her have been unsuccessful (she has either been working or going out with friends). Then I decided to visit her at work a last week. When I went to kiss her goodbye she blushed. When I texted her the next day so did not return my message. Three days went by and no contact. Then yesterday I received a text from her that she had to get stitches after falling. I dont know what to make of this. I thought things had been going well but then when she didnt contact me for three days I just figured she decided to move on. But then if she didnt want to have anything to do with me anymore why would she have texted me to tell me she got stitches? Wouldnt she just not have told me? Did she need some time to think about the relationship that was developing? Thoughts/comments?
Gemini0525 Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 I wouldn't get too worried about it yet. If she had to have stitches, it could have been a pretty nasty fall! Maybe the stitches are visible and she's embarrassed.
Author nyr81 Posted August 11, 2008 Author Posted August 11, 2008 Ok but why did she not contact me for 3 days? And under the circumstances for why she eventually did contact me seems hard to gauge her interest.
JohnnyBlaze Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 Given that the cut from the fall required stitches, I doubt she was in much shape to talk. She may well have been in hospital, suffering a concussion at the time...a valid excuse for not answering any message! As to why it took her so long, Gemini's probably right. When I'm wounded/sick, I generally go on radio silence until I'm back up and running again. There's a chance that she does like you, and that's why she texted you at all. She didn't want you thinking that she had blown you off (which, ironically enough, is what happened because of it!). I wouldn't read too much into things at this point in time. Just pick up where you left off and go with it. Whether she does want to see you again or not, you'll find out soon enough.
Mako482 Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 In my experience forget it. Move on and if she contacts you play it from there. I am going through the same thing with a woman who said and did all the right things and everything was moving great then she just stopped contact. Seems to happen way too much, getting extremely cynical when it comes to this dating thing. Tough to be optimistic with anyone anymore when something seems to be headed in the right direction.
Author nyr81 Posted August 13, 2008 Author Posted August 13, 2008 I understand what you're saying Johnny but then again she didnt talk to me for several days before she got hurt. Wonder if she's playing the sympathy card at this time? When I asked if I could see her she said maybe in a few days when she's off the painkillers. Maybe usually isnt a good sign right?
jadedone Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 It's funny. When you are a kid and your parents say MAYBE it means yes. When a woman you are interested in romantically says MAYBE it usually means no.
