AloneinTexas Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 After nearing blowing it (in my last thread) with a lame attempt at humor with a girl Im slightly interested in, I think I pulled things back on track. (For those not knowing, I have been working out with a girl in a club of sorts and feel like there might be something, I have been engaging with her for roughly a month.) So after my apologetic text, her response was "Ha ha, thanks! I guess I'm used to good [sport we play] being serious. Lol have a great weekend and thanks for all the help the past few weeks!" She had a competition and did well over the weekend so I sent her a message saying "nice job! couldnt tell if you were being sarcastic or serious lol but after years of being "serious", i realized it doesnt work for me with [sport we play], im much better in a comedic/laizze faire attitude. to each their own lol. I'll be around for your next training phase but in the meantime, enjoy your next 2 weeks off drinking binge jk! She txted immediately responding " no, i like the comedy relief, believe me." a 2nd text after that said "and i really really appreciate you training with me." 3rd text said "how is your trip been going?" (i was out of town briefly.) I responded briefly mentioning I dont mind training with you for a while and went on to say I was still on my trip and what I was doing, also asking if anything newsworthy happened on her trip. She said "a lot news worthy actually! met the [semi celebrities in our sport] walking back from dinner. ill have to tell you about it. so cool." to wrap it up, i responded with "oh cool, ive read [celebrities'] blog and knew he was going for something great. i will want a book report, powerpoint presentaion and works cited when you tell me all about it." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Its hard to tell her interest level on these texts but at the very least she is friendly with me. Just having a hard time wonderiing if i am on the friends ladder or not. She seems quite playful flirty with a few other guys on her FB wall too, so who knows.
Lucky_One Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 How about just respond with "Why don't you tell me about it at dinner? How about one night this weekend - are you free?"
Lilmisus Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 How about just respond with "Why don't you tell me about it at dinner? How about one night this weekend - are you free?" I think I agree with this. But I'm kind of getting the friend vibe from the texts. Try boosting the flirting up just a bit and see how she responds from that. From there, try to ask her out, and hopefully she's interested in you as more than just friends
Author AloneinTexas Posted September 23, 2011 Author Posted September 23, 2011 Well here is more: This afternoon, I worked out with her friend. I forgot a necessary piece of equipment for working out but got thru it anyways. It was kinda funny though, nonetheless. It has been 72 hours since last txting the girl in my interest, so I decided to text her. Tried to keep it light, quick, and non-LOLing. I said "Hey, I have 2 q's. You know anyone in your network needing a last minute fill in for the competition this weekend? and ran with (her friend) today, we might workout Sunday, care to join? She replied "2 q's?" I responded "Questions!" She then said back "Im thinking but I dont know of anyone. Ill let you know tho. I heard, howd the hiking boots and polo shirt work out? you starting a new trend? and I prob wont be awake when you guys workout Sun. Hopefully celebrating with everyone after the {competition}. want to join? fun people. I wrote back "thats one thing thatll never change: girls like to talk! shoes were comfy (i wore the wrong shoes) as well as polo shirt. cant remember everything right? ya and i do enjoy nitelife and lager, i can arrange to join! 2 hours later, she replied : "your such a trooper {my name}! lol, ill let you know what we are doing after the competition." Good news is i kept out any hints of laughing. Bad news is I still get that friendly vibe. Am I probably correct? Or do you think her invite was significant of her interest. (Though she could be inviting me as well as a bunch of other, so probably no "extra" interest for me.)
Trovador Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 If she was interested, she would text you or would do something really substantial... as things are, she is only being nice but I think you are on the verge of pestering her... let go this one man and never forget the lesson brought by your past blunder... impress a woman being the best guy around, not being obnoxious...
karaoke Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 find out when you see her in person, texts can be tricky.
