Having a weird issue with texting this girl I met last night. The story:

I'm out with some friends last night and this girl opens me at the bar ("You're hot!"). We talk for a little while, she's being...pretty aggressive, to where I'm sure I'm going to close that night. I have to go suddenly and unexpectedly to deal with an issue at home, but before I go I hand the girl my phone to put her number in. She's eager and puts it in and calls herself right away (to get my number). She says she wants to hang out soon and I "better call" her.

Today around lunch I get a text from her saying "Hey stud". I don't see it til an hour after it arrives and I respond (admittedly without even really thinking) "hey! How are you?" Our convo as follows:
Her:doing good, you?
Me: can't complain. Hey why are you in a fireman's outfit? (Her FB pic is in a firemans outfit)
Her: halloween
Me: it "suits" you
Her: ha! You're too punny ;)
Me: what's your favorite holiday?
[long time gap]
Her: Presidents Day
[medium gap]
Me: oh you're being funny huh?
Her: maybe
Me: for what it's worth, I chuckled
Her: lol sure
Me: remind me again, what part of town do you live in?
No response from here at all, been 5 hours.

So, curious to feedback on if I messed up somewhere, if this is just one of those weird things, or what. Possibly relevant note: I'm 30, she's 21. Take that for what it's worth.


On an unrelated note, this is my first post. I've been trying to become more of a PUA the last year with muted success (I have "vibe" issues, mainly). I've read a couple books, but I know I need to get more feedback on what I'm doing. So I'm gonna start posting my field reports often now and am eager for your help. I look forward to you guys shaking your heads at my fuck-ups and then slowly see my learn and grow and improve! :D

Lol ^

Mate. What this being your normal self ? Of did you think your texting was "game"?

I'm guessing you are new to this..

Ok, let me help, this is what was needed:

(She is pursuing you remember, at this point all you have to do if not be weird and fuck it up which you probably have already lol)

Her- hey stud
You- hey, how are you?
Her- doing good, you?
You- will tell you about it in person. ;)
Her- haha when?
You- what is your week's schedule like?
Her- I'm free Wed and Thu.
You- I know a cool bar that you would like, 8pm Thu good for you?
Her- sounds good to me.
You- ok, see you soon, but you be on your best behaviour ok? ;)
Her- lol I will try x


KEEP IT SIMPLE AND NORMAL.

We can give all kinds of ideas of what to text, but really, if you suck at texting you should stop doing it.

Start calling girls instead. If you absolutely have to text, just use it to arrange meet ups.

But if you suck at something, isn't that a more of reason to get good at it?

If a juggler gave up after he dropped his balls he would never be a juggler in 1st place.

I know what you are saying but I think texting and calling are just as important as each other.

I used to be actually the worst texter in the world. It is a skill that you can get good at.

I have a speech problem so I always avoided calls when i can but I still do it because not every girl is a texter.

Stop texting so much. It is a favorite method of communication of tween girls. You are a man.

Each question asked over text is one less question than can be asked in person.

I only use texting to minimum. I use it to keep myself on a girls radar, to attract, and a bit of comfort. I mainly use my phone for dates and meetups. I don't have time to get into a conversation with someone over text. It is unnatural and it is boring for me.

I either for a meetup or to meetup to have sex. That's it.

You are asking worthless questions that spark no emotion or interest which explains the time gap. Think if you received that text what would be your first reaction? You probably wouldn't respond right away either.
