You sound very clear in your in your mind that you like her. Did the holidays help?

Hey, I could be totally wrong. But, from a girl's perspective I can tell you that she would not be commenting on your photos and wanting to go to places with you if she wasn't at least interested in spending time with you. Now, she may just see you as a friend or she may see you as more. No one can really tell you that except for her. So, just keep hanging out and see what happens. Her wanting to continue hanging out is a good sign. Good luck!

In a way they did. What it told me is that I want to continue getting to know her. As I've mentioned, but biggest issue is getting her to open up... or just talk more I suppose. Time can do this, I hope. But yeah, she's a very nice person with a genuinely good heart, I think.

 

hellp12234, I hope that by now she knows that I'm interested in her for more than just friends. I'm hoping our last date made that clear enough. For me, the telling thing will be if she now agrees to hang out... since that must mean she's at least willing to give it a chance.

Okay, is this a thread, or a blog?

 

Good for you, bud, but give this a rest, will ya? You are also acting like a woman going on and on and on. No offense.

 

Change the channel there Tonto. When we want your opinion, we'll give it to you. In the mean time, inquiring minds wanna know!:p

I update it because I don't like it when people ask for advice or have a question.... and then never return to let the people who helped them know how things ended up.

so I haven't heard a response from her. :( Maybe I'll try phoning... I don't know. She's never taken more than 24 hrs to respond to my msg's... now it's been a few days.

You had to send her a message online because your phone wasn't working. Quit relying on messages and texts and pick up the phone. :)

well most of our non in-person communication was through facebook private messages. Anyway, so I tried phoning just now when I saw I didn't have a response... but I just got her answering machine. I don't ever leave voice messages. So I posted something on her facebook wall (she can't miss that surely) and also mentioned to check her inbox (incase she somehow missed the msg). We'll see what happens.

ok. So I got a response. Turns out she didn't get my New Years cell msg (not enough memory space on her phone). She took a while to answer because apparently she's been going crazy trying to organize her schedule for work and also for school. she mentioned a few other things as well.

 

her last line was this: "I don’t really know if I’ll be able to this week, as it's a bit hard for me to make projections right now, but I’ll let you know when things settle down a bit.

 

Happy New Year!

(insert name)"

 

 

dammit. I HATE things left out in the open to waffle around like this... but then that's just my nature, to organize things. Anyway, I'm gonna let her be for this week... if I don't hear from her (and I'm not counting on it), I'll phone/contact her next week... see what's up. If that isn't good then I'll know she isn't interested at all I guess. :confused:

what an odd coincidence. She came over to me (she saw me) at a metro stop that we just happened to be at at the same time. She greeted me with kisses (cheek kisses... but we had never greeted this way before). It was a very brief meeting (just about 5 min) as I got off at the next stop. I donèt know if this is good or not (especially the cheek kisses)....

 

Yeah, I know I said I would not post without a question, but what the hell.

alrighty. So after msg'ing her again on Monday...

 

so I went out with her today from 5 to 12:30.... she seemed to want to keep it going, which is good to me.

 

We went out to eat, then were going to go to a Burlesque show... would have been fun. Sadly, near the end of our meal I started to feel a bit queezy. I don't know what the hell was wrong with me. Anyway, I hope she understood (she said she did)... so we just went to a local pub for drinks (well, I just had water... considering how I was feeling). Thankfully I started feeling better, but it was too late to go to the show... so we just talked. Hell, we spent the whole time talking, which to me is good. It didn't feel quite so forced this time... tried to get her to open up more. Brought her back to show her my work in my studio... after that it was late, and she needed to be getting back (she lives far enough away). Just brief cheek kisses at the end, which is fine by me, since we were standing in -30 Celsius weather and she was all bundled up so that I could barely see her lol. Sent her a brief humorous text msg when I got home that she'd see while riding back... got a quick response.

 

so it went well, considering it could have been a near disaster with me not feeling well in the middle. It's a shame we didn't get to the show. She was looking forward to it... it would have been fun.

 

(oh and I know this isn't a blog. But what the hell. Some people who posted here to help me out deserve to know)

k. So this will be my last post in this thread, since I want to update for ya'll but not to the point of stupdity (although i may already be there ha!)

ok so I can probably close this thread now... but for a good reason. the objective of the thread, so to speak, has been achieved. (I know I posted almost the same message in my other thread.. but it applied equally to both now)

 

It's definitely at the dating stage now. I saw her last night at 5:30... was with her till 10 am this morning. She stayed over at my place (didn't sleep together or anything.. we both like to take things slow). The whole damned "kissing barrier" has been broken (more like shattered) at least ;)... we discussed a few things such as where we see things being right now... and we seem to be on a similar page. So guys there's your update... thanks all for the kind words and advice along the way :)

I suppose I just thought I'd let those who were encouraging me or advising me throughout the way on this that my relationship with this girl is still going strong, we're definitely exclusive bf/gf... all bases have been covered, etc. Everything's really good :)

 

thanks guys ;)
