rorschach007 Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 I met this girl for the first time during my grad school job at a dinning court. We talked for some time and exchanged school emails. After that, any time we met, it would be the usual hi hellos. Nothing beyond that. Cut to the present, 2 years after university, I find her on linkedin, see that she's currently staying about 3 hrs from my city. I add her to my network and she accepts me as a connection. Now, I felt that may be I can date her. So I ask a mutual friend (guy) to hook me up. But he refuses to do so and tells me to directly contact her. I have no other choice left and add her as a friend on facebook to atleast get in touch. The friend request is still pending and I am running out of ideas to move forward. Let me know what could be my next possible (successful!) steps.
ja123 Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 I wouldn't say there's much more you can do, but wait to see if she accepts your FB friend request. Even if she does, it's still not certain she would be interested, so tread with caution. If she doesn't accept, then you have your answer and should move on. 1
d0nnivain Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 If you have her linked in profile, it should contain contact info. Call her. You aren't some random guy off the street. It will be fine. Even if she has a BF or says no, you aren't being invasive or inappropriate by contacting her. As for asking your mutual friend to "hook you up" bear in mind junior high school is long over; your friend was right to stay out of the middle of this. 1
Author rorschach007 Posted November 28, 2013 Author Posted November 28, 2013 thanks guys @d0nnivain - you were bang right. Got her contact details. 1
Author rorschach007 Posted November 29, 2013 Author Posted November 29, 2013 Update: Texted her about 10 hrs ago, letting her know who I am. Got no reply. I guess, that's it folks.
Knightosphere Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 Hey relax, there will always be another girl when the time comes. Don't give up hope or anything and plus it's way better than the chance of getting your heart broken or something.
haribogumsnickers Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 Slow it down keynosabi. She could be busy, maybe. Play it cool and do your thing. For now, all you can do is wait it out. You'll meet someone at Barnes and nobles. Remember, you're money. 1
Author rorschach007 Posted November 29, 2013 Author Posted November 29, 2013 hahaha haribogumsnickers......that I surely am
Author rorschach007 Posted December 1, 2013 Author Posted December 1, 2013 After receiving no reply to my first text, I sent her a second one saying that I found on linkedin that she is living in the same state and got her number there (to take out the creepiness factor). Just want to catch up with her. Still no reply after a day.
