Ok I met a girl about two weeks ago for a first date. Things seemed to go well on the date and she immediately followed up the date with a few text messages that night and the next day. I responded, then it took two days for a response then three (although I was out of town for about a week following that date, so I wasn't in move fast mode and consequently not concerned). I figured either I didn't move fast enough after the date or she lost interest. I texted her this past monday - about a week after the date and didn't hear back. It was her birthday on Thursday, so I sent her a happy birthday text and heard back within minutes. I responded and heard back again within minutes. Is this girl interested or just playing nice with texts? 'Is it worth calling her for another date at tbis point or just let it go? She's currently out of town, but will likely get back tomorrow...I'm not a big text person- so I get a bit confused when someone's preferred mode of communication is texting...I don't know gow to interpret things...

 

Oh yeah - this is tbe position I'm currently in - no reason to say I should have called her a while ago...I'm aware of that...

I have rather harsh texting views that have been well documented on this forum. I'm not down with people who can't take a few minutes out of their day to respond to a message directed specifically to them. I lose interest very quickly.

 

This is assuming your texts are such that they require an answer. If it's a question, a set up for a date, etc, it demands a response. If it's a boring text, people may choose not to answer.

I sent her a happy birthday text

 

you say you dont text, yet to wish someone happy birthday, you text.

NO TACT AND PATHETIC!!! if you dont like text, then man up and call. then there are no mixed signals and she might take you seriously. I would ignore you too.

 

so I wasn't in move fast mode and consequently not concerned

 

Another problem is your whole attitude of keeping things moving. if she texts you right after a date then she was interested. you should have done your part to keep the momentum going. I usually text the girl with a good night flirty text if I want to continue with her. most woman want to be chased and courted. you playing cool/laid back and see what happens and how much she wants me attitude didnt work for you.

 

when my gf texts me and I see we are trying to explain our previous text because of misunderstanding, I call !!!
