Sivok Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 Last Fall I briefly dated a girl for two or so weeks before we more or less drifted apart. During that time, I felt a powerful magnetic attraction to this woman and judging by the way the brief period we had together progressed, it was mutual. Honestly, I don't exactly remember what happened to cause us to drift apart, and for the most part I did forget about her - I went on to date another woman for 6 months - until recently. Anyway, I've been single for 2 or 3 months now, and that one particular girl kept entering my mind. I do still have her contact information. Now I don't usually dig in the past for dates... but I can't help but keep thinking about the one that got away. Question is, should I give it a shot? My mentality is what's the worst that could happen... I'd still be single
DollWelch Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 Yes, you should, Sivok! Too much time hasn't passed for her to forget about you. Perhaps she feels the same way, but is hesitant or hasn't had the opportunity to approach you. Talk to her, say that you'd like to catch up. Meet up and then take it from there! I don't think it's ever too late for second chances.
Confusedalways Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 Sivok, heck yes! I have reached out in the past to old friends and flames and it always ends literally well, or ends well in the sense that I didn't have to question "what if?" Definitely do it- you regret more things you don't do than things you do! Let us know how it turns out
Author Sivok Posted June 7, 2010 Author Posted June 7, 2010 I tossed her an email as that's all the contact info I have left from her. Now I wait in limbo!
ADF Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 I suspect you memory of your relationship with this woman may be colred in some way. If there was such a "magnetic" attraction between you, why would you have drifted apart? And why wouldn't you now remember why?
Author Sivok Posted June 7, 2010 Author Posted June 7, 2010 There wasn't really much closure involved. All I remember was we both ended up traveling during thanksgiving break and didn't get in touch when we got back. A failure in communication really, I didn't take the step to get back in touch.. Neither did she
Author Sivok Posted June 10, 2010 Author Posted June 10, 2010 So I got in touch with her and asked her out. She gave me the response "Absolutely"... but she said she's been seeing a guy for the past two weeks but isn't really sure where it was going. It was cool she was transparent about it, but I've never 'double dated' before. Not gonna lie, I love competition though but if I pursue this, I'm going to tread very slowly on the emotional level. Any thoughts about this?
