Met a girl at a party. K close, could've been F close but didn't have rubber and I'm pretty strict about this sort of thing. Stayed the night.
A week later I set up a date through text, had lunch, went to the park, walked through the streets, great date, heaps of fun, etc. She basically said that "she's just waiting for me to ask her out again, etc.". Heaps of hints at how she's gonna "cook for me", that her car was still not "broken in" despite being 6 years old, etc.
She texted me a few times during that week. Friday a week after, I ask her out on a last minute date. She's already got plans, but says she's available Sunday. I said keep sunday free but didn't lock it down. Saturday comes around and I text her and she calls me back saying that she's not up to it on Sunday, some lame excuse, etc. She says she's busy the two weekends after but she's not fobbing me off and she might be able to meet during the week... but I was busy (i'm usually busy during the week).
I left it there for a couple of weeks. Then the other day I was free on a weekday and ask her out, last minute. She declines, but offers the same day the week after or the week after that. I said to keep it free and i'd get back to her on it.
This week comes around and I text her and ask if she's free and she says she's got plans that she's made months ago and accidentally made plans with me. She says she's sorry and she def wants to meet up. Suggests that we meet tomorrow or next week.
So I've just plainly ignored her now.
One problem with this girl is that she never answers her phone. She always keeps her phone in her bag which isn't always with her and I can't really call her. So my game is limited to text.
She's not completely blank flaked me given that she's offering alternatives, but attraction's clearly gone. What the hell do you think went wrong? Should I lock down tomorrow? Should I say, "Hey, i'm meeting up with friends tomorrow but given both of us seem to be so busy, i can reschedule them for you, but you gotta promise that you won't change your mind"....or is that too needy?
Or just forget about her? Ignore her?
She's not flaking, she's genuinely busy, as are you, and you both have issues sorting out your schedules. In addition, it might help if you told her when YOU"RE available and then try to work towards locking down a date. Do this IN ADVANCE, and no more last minute invites.
