alexlakeman Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 I got a woman's # friday a.m. off of Match and told her I would call her Friday after work but didn't.. Today is Sunday.. should I bother calling her, or did I burn my bridge by not calling her Fri or Sat? Thoughts?
Art_Critic Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 Can I ask why you didn't call her when you said you would ? If you call her now it will look like you had something else more pressing or better to do than call her.. If that is what you want to do then call her.. it can't hurt and worst that can happen is she blows you off.
carhill Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 Thoughts? Assuming this is an online stranger, up to you. I doubt she's worried about it. If you do call, and she answers, IMO, after identifying yourself, apologize for not calling on Friday. No excuses. Just 'My apologies for not calling you on Friday like I said I would'. Then, move on.
jadedone Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 For future reference, just say you will call this weekend.
zengirl Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 If you still want to call her, call her. There are girls who will still go out with you if you give a sincere apology (carhill was on the money about no excuses, unless you have some kind of great reason like a major accident, which it sounds like you don't!). I wouldn't go out with anyone who demonstrated that early on they couldn't do what they said they would, but that's one of my things. A lot of my friends would consider that too rigid a philosophy. I think one of the main secrets to success in life is Do What You Say You Will.
Gallaxia Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 It's still the same weekend, I think it'd fair better for you if/when you called her you said what Carhill suggested- "like I said I would"- if you're still interested in her. But remember, some people have self-respect and hold people to their word. This could go any number of ways...
Author alexlakeman Posted August 9, 2010 Author Posted August 9, 2010 I ended up not calling her... I just texted her that I'd call her mon ... I guess it's like some womene complain on here that guys get their #'s then don't call ... It was just one of those weekends. I felt like being alone , chill out at home, didn't have the motivation to call; almost thought as a courtesy just text her "not ready to start dating right now, sorry".. or some crap like that...but no, I texted her "I apologize, blah, blah, blah.. I'll call u mon" .. lol I was analyzing myself this wknd and came to the conclusion that if my ex gf, which we broke up in late March, early april (4 months) would come back into the picture, I'd dump whoever I was with and go back to her... so not as over her as I would like to think, lol... She dumped me, I cheated on her.. Oh well, I'll keep on dating and push myself to call this one Mon..
BobSacamento Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 Don't you realize that if you do call her Monday she will look so pathetic if she actually takes your call. But why even debate it, you won't even call her lol
