CARL45 Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 I have been dating this woman for a month and she works as a teacher. She is pretty busy most of the time so we couldn't have a date. I sent her a text in which I told we could just reschedule the date. At the end of the text I said by the way I like you and I think your a fascinating woman. The response I got was this " Thanks...that's very nice...although im not sure why..but thank you". Well I couldn't ask her what she meant because I had to turn off my phone I had to finish some work, but it came across like no man had ever communicated their feelings to her and she was a little stunned by what I told her. I'm new to this dating thing what do you think?
BobSacamento Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 I think she just doesn't understand why you think she's fascinating. Tell her.
BetterOffWithoutYou Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 she might have low self esteem or just think she isn't fascinating. telling her the things you enjoy about her will only help! be more specific she will enjoy the attention
craw Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 did you actually type out, "YOUR" or "YOU'RE" cause if she's a teacher, that's definitely a nice strike out.
BetterOffWithoutYou Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 She thinks dating is a game. i personally don't know any women who think dating is a game. i do know a lot of women with self esteem issues though.
jadepeony Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 She's probably just the type who lacks a bit self-esteem, and she might think you're just saying that for the heck of it (or maybe to get on her good side). Sometimes when you give compliments to women, you've got to be a little more specific--like compliment her on something that isn't generic and is truly unique to her.
westrock Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 did you actually type out, "YOUR" or "YOU'RE" cause if she's a teacher, that's definitely a nice strike out. If she rejects him for using the incorrect form of "you're" in a text message, then that speaks more about her than the OP. If she is so concerned about proper use of language then what about her typo? " Thanks...that's very nice...although im not sure why..but thank you" Wouldn't her missing apostrophe in "I'm" be even more damaging considering she is a teacher, not to mention the lack of capitalization and what about all those periods? Should he strike her out for her improper use of language? When texting, it's generally understood that grammar and spelling usually take a back seat. I agree with BobSacamento. Just tell her why you think she's fascinating.
RedRussian Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 You should have replied " Word up...that's was very manly of me...although you not sure why...I tell you in my next test in 5 min "
