So is the ball in her court now? she interested or not?
I met this girl at new job. Both 21, and I really like her, we just connect and share a lot of same interests. She seems to like me too and always makes excuses to talk to me, and goes out of her way to "help me out" with whatever I'm doing. She asked me to join her when we both had a break and compliments me. I shes always excited when talking to me she'll be like "hey come with me" we talked and I helped her carry some stuff home we said goodbye exchanged numbers and she texted me saying heyyyyyyyy :) and I was like heyyyy what's up? And now no response, I don't want to bother her by texting her but since I was the last one to send a text isn't the ball technically in her court, should I just not do anything unless she texts me back?
Men: Why do you put the ball in a woman's court?
I just met a guy and he seems like fun. We've talked a couple of times, he gave me his number, and he keeps putting the ball in my court with "feel free to call me", "if you want to meet up this weekend, just let me know." Is this lazy or something else? He's older than I am, so I figured he'd be more bold than that. It's not that I dislike it, I'm just not used to it. It seems like most guys I dated in the past were the initiators.
He's left the ball in my court? Does this mean he's not interested?
We met on Saturday for the first time & he invited me for a coffee. I had already told him I like to be friends with a guy first and then see if it goes well before entering into a relationship. To be honest it went great. We talked for 3 hours non stop about everything. So during the evening, he said to me 'let's go to a movie' another time. He also said that he wants us to go for dinner with another couple (best friend & wife). He's gentlemanly and reserved. So saying goodnight, he said 'we'll see each other again, we can text and make an arrangement, just think of what kind of movie you'd like to see!' I havn't heard anything yet..do you think he'll contact me? What do you think? Should I wait for him to contact me? I prefer if the man does this to be honest. Opinions please.
Should I be persistent or back off?
There's a woman in my building that I have been trying to pursue. I found her myspace page and sent her a very nice and non-aggressive message. She never read it (for whatever reason) so I decided to try again and make it clearer that I lived in her building (in case she didn't pick up on that in the first message) but that I meant no harm. I'm pretty sure I expressed my interest in her "tactfully". This time she read it but did not respond. In a last attempt to pursue her, I sent a "Happy Halloween" message in which all the message had was a cute picture of Garfield in some dracula outfit. Again, she read it but did not respond. I should also mention that we had spoken to each other in the past briefly (in the lobby). I really feel as if we could have a strong connection and possibly a future. Should I be persistent or just back off? I heard some women actually like a man to be persistent and pursue them.
She cancelled our first date. What should I do?
We scheduled a time to go out. She cancelled a few hours before when I asked her if she could still make it. She said that she didn't get to see her family yesterday, so she wants to see them that night, and that maybe we could do it another time.I simply replied with, "Okay." Later, she asks if I was mad. Verily, I am not. I have two jobs and going back to school, so she made it easy, but I can't tell if her cancellation was an excuse or a reason. I would like to take her out, but my time is very important because I haven't much to spare, so I need our scheduled times to be honored. So, I told her that I wasn't mad, and that I only ask once. After, she keeps replying, saying that she is sorry. I don't know if she isn't interested or if she is just playing games. What to do?
