Bit of an update: She DID end up getting in touch with me, and we met up at a bar and had our second date and had a good time, got on really well, had a few drinks, and then I walked her to the train station and before she left we kissed for a minute or so, properly, not a crappy peck on the lips. I thought "okay, cool, this has gone even better than I thought!" but she didn't text me or call me on the way home. Found that a -little- strange, but just figured her phone might have died, or she was just really tired or something.
But she text me the next morning said "I don't want to lead you on, you're not the one for me.".
I was kind of crushed, but she WAS honest and I have to say, kudos to her and respect for being forthright, if something isn't right, it isn't right.
One thing it did teach me though was to trust my instincts a bit more. I think she already knew that she wasn't that interested in me before she met me, but was giving me a chance to change her mind. I guess I failed in the end.

Women are indirect; they don't like confrontation. Out in the wild, a cavewoman who rejected a man's advances could potentially have been raped or killed. So it's in their nature to be less direct. They also like to get male attention to improve their chances with other men and to get street cred from other women.
This is very clever, and true of most women though. Very good point.

Yes, and also, a woman doesn't KNOW for SURE if you're not the right guy yet. She's not just going to love you for a second, you need to PROVE it and that takes time and commitment. In other words, she hasn't made up her mind yet. She doesn't know herself, so she leaves that door open. Maybe you'll win the lottery....she never knows.
Yup. Guess she knows for sure now
I'll just have to keep buying those lottery tickets and one of them will finally be a winner. Starting this Saturday. For now though I am going to wallow in misery for a bit, not quite ready to get back out there, this one hit me pretty hard.
