Vero Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I got a girl's phone number after talking to her for a short bit at my high school's Blood Drive, and I waited to text her to make sure I didn't seem too desperate. I texted her this 3 days later at 7:21PM: "Hey [Her name] , it's [My name]. We talked a bit at that Blood Drive. However, she responded the next day at 8:19PM with: "Hey(:" I responded and hour later (I was genuinely busy) with: "How has your day went?" She hasn't responded and it's currently the morning after that night she sent that. Why is she doing this? Does she think I don't care enough or I'm not interested? Does she not care? I have no idea whatsoever. What do I do? Thanks!
thecrucible Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Can't tell. Maybe she just has other stuff going on. Maybe you could get to the point and ask her to meet up or something...hmm I'm not sure. How come you left it 3 days though? If it was me, I'd have preferred that 'cause that way the guy's still fresh in my mind and I know he's interested. Have you been talking like friends or flirting a little? I'm like that with friends. I get the text so I don't get back to them again for a few hours or days. No one minds because we all know we're busy with various things.
Author Vero Posted April 6, 2014 Author Posted April 6, 2014 I'm hoping 3 days wasn't too long of a time to go without responding. And no, we having been able to talk or flirt or anything like that because I don't have any classes or club associations with her at my school. My school was just hosting a Blood Drive, so after we both donated, I saw her in the lobby eating some of the complimentary food so I went up and talked to her for a little bit. It may have been pretty stale conversation (I don't know; I've never approached a random girl for a conversation), but I asked her for her number after about 10 minutes of talking and she said "I don't know.." with a sort of strange smile. I told her that it's just a phone number and it's no big deal; we could just text if she liked, and she ended up giving me her number.
saltyfishhead666 Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Why did you wait 3 days?? Surely you'd want to get in there quickly while the attraction is there. Women know about this 3 day rule you know, and if she does, she's probably assumed your playing games. Just be straight 1
Author Vero Posted April 6, 2014 Author Posted April 6, 2014 Ughh I knew it wasn't a good idea. What do yo suggest I do now? I texted her back and she hasn't responded. Do I hope for a response? Hopefully this isn't a lost cause.

Hopefully this isn't a lost cause. Don't just take my word for it...see what everyone else here says, but I don't see the harm of calling her and seeing if you can set up a casual hangout...Are you likely to see her again in person?
Author Vero Posted April 6, 2014 Author Posted April 6, 2014 Not likely as we don't share any classes or clubs at school. I'd be lucky to see her in the hallways. I was kinda thinking of just texting as my main means of communication between us for now. I was hoping to text a bit before actually calling her and setting up something. We've barely been able to communicate after I met with her that one time. Calling her seems too much like a bold step assuming we haven't even texted. I'm not so much worried on my part about doing it, but more worried about how she's going to perceive me if I do it.

saltyfishhead666 Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Just call her up and ask her out. The worst she can say is no and if she says yes you can go out remind her of why she liked you to begin with and you've got a do over!
