So there this girl I've gone on like three dates with. We're both in our final years of school so are very busy and we haven't been able to see each other in the past two weeks, but we agreed about a week ago to me up next weekend because we both weren't busy, but we didn't set an exact time and date at that point.

 

So on Friday afternoon I sent her a message asking how she was just because I felt like talking. She responses a couple minutes later, we talk for literally another few minutes before she just stops responding. Then the next morning I get a message from her saying she was sorry she didn't reply because she'd left her phone in the car.

 

So we chat for a bit more and then without even hinting that the conservation was over, she didn't reply to my message, again!24 hours later, still hasn't replied.

 

She's done stuff like this before, always saying she was busy and apologising for it ,but I mean this is just rude. When we've got out she's been really nice and I thought it was going well, I've even met her parents. She just doesn't seem like the type of person to do this. So I wondering if anyone knows whats going on? Should I message her again later and ask about going out again?

Sounds like she isn't much of a texter.

 

 

So why haven't you tried calling her? If you like her, you would be calling her and setting up a date.

She sounds like me.

 

I'm a horrible texter, mainly because I'm just so forgetful.

 

Call her!

 

I'm so much better with phone calls. We get everything we need to talk about out in a minutes as opposed to long drawn out texts.

 

If she wasn't interested she wouldn't be responding and definitely wouldn't try and apologize for not responding. Just pick up the phone :)

Maybe she's got something better to do than texting.

 

There are many better things to do.

Good Lord! Are you kidding me? Who has time to text back and forth all day about nothing? I have news for you. Once anyone has a job or a full schedule, all that texting back and forth is over. What's rude is initiating a texting thread and THEN not wrapping it up with something like "OK, holler at you in a couple of days" to let them off the hook. How many different ways does she have to tell you "I'm busy"?

Ok, kinda sounds like I'm in the wrong here. I didn't think of it that way, sorry about that, I'm probably worrying over nothing, i tend to do that. I'll give her a call later then.

Exactly! And unless you're in a relationship with said person, it's really hard to keep up a conversation in text. Eventually all the things that have already been said will become one long regurgitation. I mean how many times can you text " Hey, how are you?" or "Hey, what's up?"

 

 

And all they'll say is "I'm fine", or "I'm okay", or "I'm good".

This. So much.

Last Tuesday a guy sent me a message online, asked me if I had XYZ texting app. I said that I didn't text and here is my phone number. He said " Well, I'll call you through the app". I told him I didn't use it.

He never called.

 

I'm 38, I have a job, I take classes and I don't want to get to know someone by text so he can have a texting buddy without ever trying to meet up.

 

Phone calls don't have to be long. If she doesn't respond to actual calls then she might not be interested. But stop with the texting :)

Yeah thanks I will, I didn't realise I was being rude.

Right. And if you say it all in text, what's left to talk about in person? Hold some back!

When two people click and connect, there are *always* things to say.

 

There isn't some sort of maximum limit you reach before you run out of conversation... Lol

 

There are always new things to learn, discover and discuss not only about yourselves, but about the world around you in general!

 

That said, I find long protracted texting back and forth exhausting! And would much rather spend my energy with someone in person!

Yes, there should be more things to talk about when there's more intimacy- ie. relationship.

 

 

However, I've been on the receiving end of a 6 month long "texting" relationship and after 3 dates the guy ghosted me. So, hold something back if you must. Only have long texting conversations when you're in a relationship and you must check up with your gf/bf.
