Hey guys,
I'm sort of in a bind.
A month ago, I n-closed and texted for a bit a HB9 online that recently moved to town then she went MIA. I never went out with her. Today, a month later, I re-opened and received positive response. Apparently, she quit the online dating scene.
The gist of the texting was:
Opener
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Me: Goodmorning, this is ___, haven't heard from you in a while - did you get thrown in jail or something?
Her: Hi ___! , How are you? I've definitely been in jail aka work! Haha, hope you've been well.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I then DHV by stating:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Me: Doing great. Currently in Las vegas at a business event (jealous yet?)
Her: Very jealous
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Then there was other filler text messages where she stated today was her longest day of the week of work.
I then proceed to set up the date:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Me: I have a "get out of jail card" for you. Coffee or dinner when I get back this weekend. I just have this feeling that you're a great person and I'd like to get to know you better. Omw to dinner, i'll have a glass of wine for you.
Her: Coffee would be great
Her: Please do!!
Her: I'm off the dating website and can you send me a photo
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I then send her multiple photos and she immediately responds with 4 text messages
Her: Very handsome
Her: what is your last name
Her: I've never been golfing
Her: How old are you again?
Me: I turn ____ in Mar ___ , My swing sucks, I'm going to stick to fishing
Her: Wow, I'll be ___ in ____
Me: My last name is ______, yours?
Me: When works for you Friday or Saturday?
Her: I've never been fishing but I would go. I prefer movies, museums, arts.
Her: last name is ____
Me: I'm an amazing fisherman - sorry to brag. i.e. Good instructor
Me: well pleasure to finally have a conversation with you ____ ______
Her: Saturday during the day?
Me: Night better? I'm having lunch with two students I'm mentoring
Her: Evening?
Me: Evening 6 or 7ish
Me Up to you - fri or sat 6 and onwards works best
Then I didn't hear anything back
Conversation RFR went back and forth at 7:00 pm.I didn't text her back because I don't want to come across as needy.
However, I do know she works 10 hrs a day . I was thinking of texting her tomorrow morning not even bringing up the date logistics anymore saying something like : "Goodmorning, Hopefully you rested well and didn't stay up late watching Tom & Jerry or the Golden Girls last night" . She does have a humorous side to her. Or I can proceed to just say "Saturday afternoon works for me". I originally wanted to continue to DHV by not automatically obliging to Sat during the day.
Thoughts?
