let me tell you people what happened. last night on my way home from a long night at work, I was coming up the street toward my apt building and spotted a young woman maybe in her mid to late 20s in the opposite way. our eyes connected for a moment and she smiled so I took this rare cue a hint to say hello. we chatted for about 5-10 minutes about the area, stuff like that before I asked to exchange info.

 

she agreed but claimed that she had gotten a new number and needed to go home and review it again, but would be happy to take mine. I thought maybe this was a cop out but since she seemed so interested in talking to me and wanted to know more about my profession in the funeral business because she actually considered going into it, I thought this was a chance for us to connect.

 

I gave her my info and she text me early the next day with this exactly:

 

"hi (insert my name) this is (insert her name) you have my number!"

 

"hey you :) staying cool?"

 

"yep of course!"

 

"I knew you would. are you free later tonite? we can meet in the park by us across the street"

 

"working today"

 

"alright, if you up to it later let me know or maybe tomorrow"

 

no reply, so I follow up later with this text:

 

"by the way, where are you from? I like the accent"

 

"france, thank you"

 

"I definitely wanna hear you speak french ;)"

 

no reply after that so I left it at that. maybe she's just busy and reallly cant talk or isn't as interested as I thought? did I suggest meeting again too soon. not sure, so Im letting some of you intelligent people here in LS make the call.

Look bro she was being nice. I can tell u really into her but I doubt she's feeling the same. She's prob a female playa lol. I've met some of those on my girl-hunts. I say drop her and see if she comes back to u.

a female player? I hope this isn't the case. not sure if I agree with you on this situation but thanks anyway. can some other people give me input?

Hm. I think the two texts you sent her that she didn't answer, she might not have felt like she HAD to answer. Or she's not that interested. Hard to tell.

 

I'd probably give it a couple days and shoot her another text with an invite to do something a day or two later (not that night) and see where that goes. Usually a person who is interested will give you an alternate date or suggestion if they can't make it, but not always. But two strikes is enough to be out, IMO.

I try to think positive on things and assume maybe she's busy with work. I remember her telling me that she's a waitress so those kinds of jobs do get demanding at times. if I dont hear from her in a few days I will try to text again to see what's up by asking her out somewhere simple to talk, and if I get resistance, excuses, or the worst, no reply. I will move on.

Sounds like she is involved with another man. I would move on, sorry.

 

where did you get that assumption? its possible but I doubt she would've text me so I can have her number. I will ask her though.

I'm very much optimist as well and think that maybe she may be a bit too busy with her job and life. You should text her a few days from now, maybe you'll have better luck...just don't put out a stalker vibe. ;)

I appreciate your opinion but I already made up my mind and decided not to bother with her. I feel like Im wasting my time here and always have to be the one to pursue. I'll just move on from this. thanks everyone ;)

Aww don't give up. Same type of thing's happening with me cept I'm the woman. And he's a police officer. She probably doesn't think she had to reply to that text. Text her again easyguy. At least give it a fighting chance. Would she really give you her number and respond more than once if she wasn't interested? I only give my digits to men I'm interested in. How do you know that shes not waiting for you to text her again? Didn't you say this happened last night? Doesn't reallly seem like that long of a wait yet.

yeah, i agree. you've made your attraction to her plain enough. if she texts you back you're good, if not, oh well. but there's nothing to figure out after a few texts and one conversation.

 

wait and see.

I think you're giving up too easily, too.

 

It interests me that the women in this thread want you to keep trying, and all the men are telling you to give up.

If someone asked me to meet up in a park I wouldn't respond either. You need to ask out formally on a real date.
