TheRock Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 1st a brief RECAP... Dating girl for 1 month 1-2 times\week. Things going great, then no dates after I sent her an email, in which I made a possibly offensive joke on Wednesday the 4th... On Wednesday the 4th, she was calling me mid day to say hi and talk, emailng me, etc. throughout the day and discussed going out Friday night the 6th. My one email that day may have been sexually offensive. Might've been too soon to joke about sex. By Friday I hadn't heard from her, called and apologized for the joke. She texted me that she became sick with the flu and couldn't go out. I called again Sun. to see how she felt and left a VM. She sent me an text on Mon. the 9th thanking me and said she was feeling a little better. I said glad to hear you're feeling better. On Tuesday the 10th, Lisa sent me a text saying "Hi, Sorry I haven't called. Just been very busy. Will call U tonight after work." (SHE IS A VERY BUSY PERSON, A Workaholic who works 7a-7p and goes to a side job a few nights and on the weekend, but it only takes a minute for an email or call.) By Thursday I still hadn't heard from her, so I sent an email titled "My Last E-mail". I was giving her a last chance to come clean on what was going on OR bow out easily... In brief, it said I said I hadn't heard from her. I apologized for the joke, breifly explained I was having a crappy week and it bled over into the email. I told her how I felt about the times we went out and how I liked her, felt a connection and thought we had a lot in common. (Last Wednesday she was looking foward to Snowboarding with me and teaching me how to play guitar, etc...she was excited and interested...) I also said that I don't date people who are late for dates (which she was) or don't return calls\emails, etc. within 24-48 hours. Told her I thought it was rude and it's one of my rules, but I had given her a chance and had gone out with her again anyway and hoped she'd do the same. I said I haven't heard from u and can't tell if you're really busy, playing hard to get or just not interested. Lastly, I said I hope I hear from you. If not, I guess we'll just be friends and go our separate ways. I'll just assume you're not interested, don't want to bother you and won't attempt to contact you again. Good Luck in the future. This gave her an easy out if she wanted... HERE'S THE KICKER!!!! She E-mailed me back instantly:: "WOW....my sincere apologies for not getting back to you...seriously, my life is soo hectic....lately business has become first- I cant help that..I am the most determined person you will ever know..pls dont be mad or hurt- yes I want to see you...just be patient- pls. we will have time- i will make time...i just get pulled left and right.. I cant really talk much while at work nor comment on everything you wrote to me, but I will call you.. I sooo promise!" HER REPLY SOUNDED GOOD... But...I was with a mutual friend today and he said he talked to her LAST week (when she was calling & emailing me and wanting to be with me) and she said there wasn't any chemistry. (I still think my joke offended her) (Hard to be yourself and have chemistry when you're mad someone is late for a date without calling and you try not to show it). Our friend had tried to date Lisa a few years ago and they just remained friends. I don't know who to believe... She could have not answered my email at all (BUT DID INSTANTLY AND CONVINCINGLY), or could have just said she wanted to be friends and didn't feel any chemistry. IS SHE REALLY INTERESTED, BUT BUSY? IS MY FRIEND JUST JEALOUS AND MAKING IT UP? OR IS SHE LEADING ME ON???
