Hey guys, I really need help with this.

 

There's this really cute girl that I've been out with a couple of times (4 to be exact). She texted me yesterday saying she wanted to hang out friday but I told her I was busy (which I am) and asked her if she's in town next week. She texted back like this:

 

Her: I'm going to my awesome home next week so no (she's not from here)

 

Me: Aww you try to so hard to make it sound cool..when u comin back?

 

Her: lol no need to try its a happenin place when im around. ill be back on the 28th

 

Me: soo many questions: leaving monday? whyy are u spending so much time there? ever heard of going postal? does ur phone get reception there even? im cocky because i have the singing voice of a young aretha franklin, whats your excuse?

 

Her: lol no i leave wednesday morning, this town just isnt good enough for me to spend xmas here. i be chillin with the family cuz thats how i fly homie... and i believe u about the aretha voice so please never try to prove that to me :). now about the cockiness, there s a difference between you and i. you see, im confident...whereas you're just plain cocky...no excuses are necessary to justify confidence :)

 

Me: don't hate on the aretha voice. i know you're jealous. and you try so hard to be witty...might be free monday or tuesday depending on how the weekend goes if u wana get ur dose of hanging out with me in before going home. trust me on this.

 

--------------------

 

And no answer and that was yesterday. Should I call or just forget her? Please guys, I need help with this one. Thanks

I'm in a similar situation right now. Same thing, she didn't answer back after us messing around on text. I deleted her number, the fact is guys can easily look like the weirdo by messaging too much, so if she didn't answer then she didn't want too. I have had a huge problem with this because I hate the silent treatment. It boils down to the simple fact that she didn't make the effort to respond. Let her contact you.

Nice job, Movingthrough. I hope she does contact you again, just so you can respond, "WTF is this?"

 

Sibernox, you took it too far. After the first couple jokes, it seems like you were trying too hard. You also seem to have forgotten that you had just turned her down. Should've offered a definite alternative and gotten her to agree, before being a douche(your comment about "trying to be witty", she probably took as you calling her stupid, and came off as very condescending at best).

I don't think there is anything wrong with your texts. You're obviously flirting with each other. You've gone out 4 times, this isn't some chick you're trying to get to date you. Plus SHE contacted you to do something.

 

I'm guessing she saw your "if u wana get ur dose of hanging out with me" and took that as the end of the conversation.

 

I would call her on Sunday/Monday and try and set something up. I don't think she's pissed at all.

Yeah, I think maybe I'll call her sunday/monday if I don't hear from her till then. Hopefully she answers.

 

If she does, should I mention the no text back?

 

And yeah, maybe I was a bit too much of a dick, but I mean, that's how we always are when we hang out... But I'm pretty sure she likes me. We've seen each other 4 times and slept together the last time. Besides, she initiated the wanting to hang out this time. So she obviously has a thing for me. I guess she's just giving me the cold shoulder so I 'lighten up' a bit?

 

Appreciate the replies guys.

DO NOT mention the lack of a text reply. It will only make you seem clingy.

 

Give her a call, tell her you'd like to see her next week. Done.

I like her text style. add a little funny to all that cocky, mate.

my only critique is if she's being witty or trying to make her place seem super cool, don't acknowledge it! instead either respond in kind or out exaggerate her.

 

e.g. awesome by who's standards, [insert relevant nickname]? yours, or the Dos Equis guy? ;)

 

she had you setup for some pretty good opportunities to make her laugh out loud. overall, you didn't lose any ground IMO.

 

she'll be back.

U slept with her last time.. Relationship has kinda changed. I say less cockiness! If a guy did that to me I would respond either. Just call her and set a definitive date. I know it'd fun to joke but just act a little more grown up next time and then if she starts to joke around then go ahead kinda gauge how the conversation is going to flow
