Viking Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Here recently, I've been able to get the numbers of girls I'm interested in and all. Only problem is I can't seem to get past that. I got the number of this girl last Thursday and all I've done so far is text her and leave a phone message (a healthy amount of texts, not creepy style). She has finals on Wednesday so I can understand her not being able to go out until then, but I offered her a study break lunch "date" and she said if she's not busy, she'll keep me posted. Anyways, she also texted me at 6 PM the other night and I didn't respond because I was talking to a friend. She sent me another text at 7 PM (one hour later almost to the exact minute-6:01 and 7:02) saying she wasn't blowing me off etc. She also works a fair bit so isn't able to talk on the phone much I guess. Anyways, what should I do to keep her interested and wanting to go out? She asked me for my last name and added me as a friend on facebook. Thanks.
jason83 Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Wednesday as in....tomorrow? Keep talking to her. Sounds like things are going well. I remember when I had finals week...it was rough. That on top of work leaves little play time. She's almost done and I think she does want to go out, she just can't until finals are over.
Author Viking Posted December 9, 2008 Author Posted December 9, 2008 Tuesday is her study day as she has finals on Wednesday so she can't go out Tuesday night, that's why I asked whether she'd like a study break and go to lunch. I've only talked with her at the bar for a brief few minutes. Before that, we were dancing together and she was having a really good time, and gave me the "ask me for my number" look. Anyways, she's local, so she won't be going anywhere over Christmas Break, and since I work, neither will I, aside from perhaps going home for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. She added me as a friend right away on facebook after texting me and asking what my last name was. I would assume that means she's interested?
jason83 Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Tomorrow is Wednesday, why are you stressing? Ask her out to celebrate when finals are over. She will be much more relaxed then! I'd say she seems interested.
Perry Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 She'll keep you posted? Who doesn't have time to eat? She has to eat, right? Try again. This time set up a time to have breakfast, lunch or dinner. Hell, you can do it for the next day. Tell her that she has to eat, you have to eat, so eat at the same table. If she can't give you a definite answer, well, then, there's your answer.

If she can't give you a definite answer, well, then, there's your answer. That's not true. During finals week and the days prior to it, I don't do anything at all except study. So maybe that's what's going on with her. I don't eat at the cafeteria, I don't eat out, I order take out, eat while studying. There's just no time for dates. Call her after her finals are over.
tanbark813 Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Ask her out to celebrate when finals are over. I agree with this.
alphamale Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Anyways, what should I do to keep her interested and wanting to go out? blow her off. don't contact her in any way. if she's interested she'll get a hold of you.
Author Viking Posted December 10, 2008 Author Posted December 10, 2008 Well, I should have read before acting. I sent her a text at 5:15ish and haven't gotten anything back. She's a nursing student and has her finals tomorrow (Wed). Soooo, I assume that she's studying for them as she has told me once that she's not trying to blow me off, she's just busy. Anyways, I work tomorrow and have a final Thursday in the morning, so Thursday is the earliest I can do anything really. Also, that will have been a week since we met. Maybe I'll invite her out with me and my friends? No friends? Just her and me? EDIT: Just got a text from her saying she thinks her brains are going to explode from studying. Nothing more...frustrating!
Perry Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 So you must have lost a lot of weight when you didn't eat, at all, during that week, huh, shylight200? Jason's reply sounds good. But, remember, if she still won't meet up for you, just for a one-hour bite to eat, there's your answer.
belladonna Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Nah I wouldn't take a lunch break with a guy in the middle of finals either, even if I was really interested. I'd be too stressed about the final, not to mention I wouldn't feel like prettying myself up for a date you know? That takes prep time haha when I'm studying I'm in my PJ's all day. Wait til she's done, ask her if she wants to do something. She might have plans to party with her friends, that's what I'm planning on doing tomorrow when I'm done my last final!

I called but didn't leave a message. She texted me back saying she was going out with her nursing classmates tonight, but I have a presentation at 8AM tomorrow (Thurs) so I didn't go. I texted her back asking when we'd get together and explained why I couldn't go out. Anyways, I'm just going to play it by ear. We'll see where it goes. I have Thursday and Friday off.
Perry Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 She texted me back saying she was going out with her nursing classmates tonight See what I mean? People, both men and women say they don't have the time, or they are "stressed out to go out," or whatever, but they will still go out, even if it is just for an hour for a bite to eat. Well, anyway, I hope it works out for you in the end.
Author Viking Posted December 12, 2008 Author Posted December 12, 2008 Called her today, but she didn't pick up. Maybe I'll see her at the club where I met her...if not, oh well, no big loss.
