minorsecond Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 So today I was thinking over the last week and I realized that this girl that I had been studying for midterms with had been flirting and giving me signs all week long and I had been too stupid to pick up on them. All week she was touching me, talking about how we should go to the park for a walk (never got to do that because of studying), etc... I really like how she remembers nearly every mundane fact I tell her about myself! Hell, Thursday night when we went to drink, I was a little put off because of the fact that she brought her roommate along. A friend of mine claims that she only brought her roommate to see if I'm "approved" or not. We had a good time together there. Due to the fact that I live a block away from the bar, I generally walk there and back. She kept insisting that she give me a ride to my apartment, so I accepted. I told her that she could just drop me off at the curb instead of having to drive into the complex, and she said "oh.. you just want me to drop you off?" I had one too many to drink, so I didn't realize what this implied, so I said "Yes." Now, she hasn't replied to either of the texts I sent her yesterday. She usually replies within five minutes! I'm afraid she assumes that I'm not interested and has given up. I think I should call her and just flat out say "I like you and I'd like to take you out on a date when you come back from spring break." Is that too forward? I don't want to call her tonight or tomorrow either... I don't really want to smother her. A friend suggested that I just text her tomorrow.. something like "Hey! I hope you had a good weekend... did you eat any more rotten bananas?" (She texted me before class the other day, telling me about how she just bit into a banana that was almost completely black.
Titania22 Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 I think you should go with the call idea. If everything happened as you say, she probably was interested, and has probably gone into rejection mode now. Being direct, will surely do more then pussy footing around.
Author minorsecond Posted March 13, 2011 Author Posted March 13, 2011 When would you say is a good time to call her? The last I texted her was Friday night.
Titania22 Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 When would you say is a good time to call her? The last I texted her was Friday night. I am not sure I am the one to answer this, but I don't see what's wrong with sunday afternoon. I mean if she is upset with you, she has been upset since thursday night. If she really does like you, I don't suppose calling sunday night or on monday or tuesday would be that bad either. If you had realised earlier, I would have suggested calling earlier, not missing a minute so to speak. I am sure the others here, can give you better advice on this.
Author minorsecond Posted March 13, 2011 Author Posted March 13, 2011 Dang. All of that sounded like a good idea last night, but now I'm just extremely nervous and anxious about calling her and saying that! I'm never that forward, haha. Any tips?
runner Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 who knows if she's feeling rejected, but it could be the case. and if so, you gotta call and try to get her to go out with you, amp up the flirting to get her in the mood and let her know you like her. and quit the texting. " ."
Cee Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Call her and ask her out. Sunday isn't too soon. This sounds like a promising opportunity. Personally, I'd be delighted to get a phone call. Texting has gotten so generic that it's not a compliment to get one.
Author minorsecond Posted March 13, 2011 Author Posted March 13, 2011 Thank you all! I called her and told her that since she mentioned going to the park while we were studying but left me hanging, she owes it to me now.. and invited her to a picnic. She seemed excited! I then had to go have a beer to calm my nerves.
