    Re: Anyone try online dating sites?

    Yeah i know... I come off better in person too so I just need that initial ice breaker but it's so damn hard to even get a response from a girl that's just cute

      Re: Anyone try online dating sites?

      So...

      -Meet a girl for drinks, seems like it goes great, lots of laughs, spent about 3 hours together good rapport the whole time.

      -Text her when I got home nice meeting you, had a great time, etc. and then we exchange flirty texts for a little while longer, talk about meeting again, she just says tell her when and where

      -Next day we make plans for one week from then

      -Text her a few days later just to stay in touch and talk about our weekends

      -The day before our plans is her birthday so I text her happy birthday, and a little later she tells me she has to work late the next day and can't make it. I tell her that's cool, just let me know when you're free to reschedule. Doesn't get back to me for over a day and says she's not sure yet, and lets talk next week and figure it out.

      -I text her today about rescheduling and she says she's just too busy, it's not a good time to be dating, she took down her profile, doesn't want to lead me on

      Anywhere I went wrong here? BS or not? Since we started talking she has talked about how work is really busy, and she's also in the process of moving, so I get being busy, it just seemed to take a real sudden turn from her being really easy to schedule with and always wanting to talk to her having no free nights ever

        To be fair, she could have had her profile out there and been in a place to be dating for a couple of months. Timing just happened that things started to get hectic for her when you guys first met up. She just might feel like its overwhelming to her right now with everything going on and she's still trying to manage it all. I would just suggest that you keep in touch with her and give her the space she seems to be wanting to deal with this stuff and just see what happens. I would leave the door open, but wouldnt push too hard to see her again.......let her do that. Meanwhile, you should try and pursue other people, because you dont know how long.....if ever....she will be in a place to where shes ready to continue. Just my .02 from experience and making the same mistakes in the past.

Was able to find a girl with the perfect 3 things I need.......hawtness, Vol fan, and Eagles fan. Had to go through a mile of **** on that site to find it, but its out there.
          Still going strong at 9 months.........I lucked out

            Yea, I could just be being paranoid, because the last 2 girls I dated definitely were playing games and being dishonest.

            I just texted her that it was nice meeting her, I enjoyed making each other laugh, and we have a lot in common, don't be a stranger if you ever want to talk, and if your schedule opens up we can see where each other is at.

            This one just kinda sucks because she was really cool, really into sports and being active and stuff. The kind of girl I'd want to be friends with even if it didn't work out.

              Just keep rolling with the punches. If its meant to be she will reach out to you.

                Yeah that sucks, but you have to always keep yourself in a position that you are in as much control as possible. Trust me, for every girl that you think would be the perfect situation for you, there are a dozen right around the corner that may be a better fit. You probably dont see that right at the moment, but trust me from experience, they are there.

                  I know this isn't news, but females are so temperamental it's not even funny.

                  One minute they can't get enough of you, the next they are overwhelmed and shut down. Just gotta roll with the punches man. You'll find another chick who is just as fun and is just as active that will reciprocate interest.

                  Just gotta sift through all the bull**** first. It's a numbers game.

                    Yup, and if she doesnt reach out to you, she probably wasnt going to anyway, no matter how much you let her know you were open to it. Letting her come to you will result in the same thing, just that you wont have to spend your time and energy for naught

                        Yup, I won't text her again, unless she reaches out to me.

                        Got a different date planned tomorrow, and a few more girls I've been talking with and trying to schedule with so we'll see what happens.

                        This one just confused me more than anything, from the time I first messaged her until we scheduled our second date she was so into it. And then next time we talked just 3 days later the fade started.

                          The second that you think that you can actually understand women.............well nevermind, because that will never happen. Had a friend tell me once that you should fall in love with a woman's personality..................she has 10 that you can choose from.

                            So I matched with and exchanged a few messages with this girl on hinge, and then I went through her pictures more, and realized she has 3 pictures with the girl I talked about a few posts ago. In fact, now I think that girl actually talked about this girl on our date lol. Not sure if I should just stay away, bring it up, or just pursue as normal and not bring it up.

                              POF is where it's @. I've run thru that site like crazy. There are some really really "friendly" women on there.

                                I would move forward with her.....................have to keep this all in a perspective that its just dating and nothing more complicated.
