So i went to this church party (not as lame as it sounds) with my one buddy last Saturday...
We partied, mingled etc. His Brothers wife introduces me to her one friend who's there with her friends (doesn't belong to the church).. I start talking to her and we hit it off pretty well. So the group decides to go to a local bar after the party and she offers to take me and my friend goes with somebody else..
We park and start making out in the parking lot, nothing major but enough to know she's into me. Go into the bar and talk. I'm talking to a few girls but this one seemed pretty different. I was actually really interested in the things she was saying and found her very interesting...
-Side story, i dated a girl for 2 years 2014-early 2016. One of my most disappointing moments in life and I to this day am regretting it because i feel bad i cheated on my girlfriend a few times. The last girl i tried getting with (named Brittany and I didn't know she knew my ex) knew my ex and eventually told my ex that "your b/f is a scum bag, etc" and hence we broke up..... (This side story has a point.....keep reading)
So talking to the girl i met at the church party at the bar, things going well... I eventually find out shes friends with this Brittany Girl..... Now I'm all like "fuck me, God damnit etc" in my head because it's only a matter of time that she talks to brittany and this girl talks shit about me too this girl. (rightfully so, i'd do the same thing, but i like to think i matured). I end up being honest and telling her the truth. She seems to understand and says "i dont care,i mean it was a long time ago.... are you still that way?". I just said i wasnt happy etc and im not proud of myself and i regret it deeply. She doesn't seem too bothered and tells me "im not even going to bring it up too britanny" and we agree to go to dinner this coming Friday.
That's a bald face lie. Women talk, even if they don't like each other, they talk.
She takes me and my buddy back to my house, (give a kiss goodbye) and im going too bed pretty happy.
So sunday i text her... and our convo goes like this
Sunday-
Me 2:04pm-Hi how are you today? I'm sorry about your lip. (i bruised her lip un-intentionally)
Her 2:45pm-Hi I'm a little hungover today. How are you? My lip looks awful!!! I also loved explaining to my mother why my lips are black.
(just small talked for few hours reminding eachother where we work etc....)
me later in the day... "I'd still like to take you out on Friday night. Does that still work for you?"
She replies 30 mintues later... "Yes we can go out friday"
I call her tuesday night to confirm dinner reservations.... and no answer around 6:00pm...
Confirm dinner reservations? If you're making plans to hangout with a girl always have a plan set before you ask. That way you just give them the details up front such as the time, how to dress etc.. and leave it.
Get a text Wednesday at 11:00am "Hey sorry i missed you call yesterday. How are you?
I reply at 12:30. "it's okay figured you were busy. Was calling to see if reservations for 6:30 worked for you. I'm good just good just running errands before work at 3!"
Again, Mr. Decisive would have set the time on the initial invite, and then make a reservation for a place to go for a reasonable time you think you could be there. From what I am reading you'd invited her out Sunday, let her know the time to be ready on Tuesday (for Friday), and now Thursday still nothing back yet. That's over 4 days that have lapsed when you should have just set the time to pick her up on Sunday and taken care of the logistics part yourself.
Strike when hot.
no reply.... and now its 8pm on thursday.
Tough to say where she's at, sometimes texts fall through the cracks, or she just lost interest, or is busy though it only takes but a moment to read and reply. Your invitation is just hanging out there in the wind now.
Just as an aside, don't add filler into a text when you're establishing a meet time. So I would have for example said "Does 630pm Friday work for you?" and left it there that way she won't possibly just skim the text and assume its idle conversation. She MIGHT have missed it (or not).
So whats your opinions, do i give up and move on?
I really wanted to go out with this girl but i feel like she's not interested anymore. (She is in the medical field so i understand if shes busy...but over a day seems ridiculous not to get back to someone)
Wondering if the brittany thing eventually did bother her
Honestly if I really liked the girl I'd sent out one more, or simply call her on the phone and tell her you've made resos for 7pm some place and that you need her address to grab her. "I've reservations for 7pm so I'll grab you at 630. Whats your addy?" sort of text. It couldn't hurt if you get no reply oh well you tried. don't get so hungup on it
.. Appreciate you guys reading this.
