So, I've been asking my friend for advice with the dating process.

 

I took a screen shot of the convo with the girl I've been dating. It showed me saying "Hey! You owe me a kiss! ;P" since we left tonight without a kiss or hug (we were with a group of friends).

 

She responded "haha I'm sorry!" ;)"

 

That's fine, but I took the screen shot and, like an idiot, sent it to the girl I'm seeing. I kinda panicked once I realized it. I said "Ugh, I'm so lame. I'm so embarrassed right now. I messaged my friend to see if he thought me saying you owe me a kiss was the silliest thing ever and ugh! I'm really sorry. I don't usually do this. This is so embarrassing! But anyway! UGH! lol" and just replied to the conversation that was going on.

 

I haven't heard back yet. It's been like 10 min. AHHHH!

Don't worry man.

 

Just wait it out. If a few days go by and she says nothing, then just message her and start over.

 

If she says something about it just say "What?" and if she presses it, just say, "what? no idea.." and then change the topic "So how about them Lions?"

 

like a boss...

I dont know how, but I think I dodged a bullet.

 

She replied "haha don't worry! What did Tom (the friend I meant to send it to) say?"

 

I replied "haha he was like 'dude, you're bad a tthis. Could you be any more corny?"

 

She responded "hahahaha I love it. Everything you say makes me smile. Every corny, sweet thing."

 

Either she's playing cool so she can smack me next time we're together, or I'm an extremely lucky guy because she:

A) Doesn't think it's a big deal and forgave me for it

B) Likes me. I think some girls would've been like "what? is he your little coach? I don't want a guy who can't think for themselves"

 

I learned a huge lesson tonight about taking screen shots and sending them to a friend for input/advice. HUUUUUGE lesson. :lmao:

I'm sorry, I can't help but laugh at this. I've worried about doing this myself on multiple occasions. At least she was cool about it.

Relax dude, I think she thought it was charming. But you reeeeaaaaallly need to stop over analyzing.

Don't know how old you are, but she may have found it cute or endearing. However, if you go into this self-deprecating mode, what originally seemed cute can quickly become off-putting. It's out there, you can't retract it, so go with the flow now and stop with all the "I'm so lame, I'm embarrassed," and for god sake, don't tell her you showed your conversation to your buddy and asked his opinion. That's weak and unattractive.

It's all about spin and marketing.

 

Example - You accidentally send the screen shot. But then you send a quick second text saying "A reminder so you'll know what to expect when I see you next time. ;)" Something like that would be funny and confident.

 

But apologizing for it and then saying you're a gossip as well doesn't make you come off great. It's actually kind of feminine, because women are the ones that compare notes with their girlfriends. However, based on her response it seems like it's no big deal. In the future though, don't make unnecessary apologies for things and always put a humorous spin on it.
