Hey Guys,

Got a quick text convo I'd like to have looked at.

Theres a girl I work with (and have done for a while- 3/4 months). I'm very alpha male around her, and I'm always getting looks at from other girls which is scoring me points I guess...

Anyway, I've been casually suggesting that we hang out sometime- and shes been positive about it.

Now, I've text her today telling her exactly when I want to hang out and below is the conversation.

Me: HB, I've decided me and you are going out this week. "Insert quip about a pic from a funny staff night out"

Her: Haha... Oh Dear. So when do you want to hang out? X

Me: I'm really busy doing super cool design related stuff, so I'm thinking Sat.

Her: Ooh you should design something vintage! X

Is it, me or did she ignore me about hanging out in the last text. Also, she never replies straight away (probably because I have a nasty habit of not texting back for at least 24 hours lol).

Anyway, any tips on what I should text back? Or shall I leave it for a bit and remind her that were supposed to be hanging out? Don't want to come across as needy by asking her to hang out all the time.

Cheers
I am sorry, but I fail to see the need for inserting the whole " really busy doing super cool design related stuff" crap that you inserted there. What was that? A pathetic attempt at DHV? It definitely made me cringe here. Why don't you read it to yourself and see how it makes you feel.

The girl asks when do you want to hang out with her. You're supposed to give her a day, a time and a plan, so that she can absorb it. Not semi-answer it in a way that you did there. How hard is it to take the lead, Mr. Alpha Male?

And if you really want to get her to invest more, drop the "nasty habit". Texting 24 hours late, is just not advisable.
Cheers mate, your the Don! You're right, after reading it again I'm not entirely sure why I said what I said :roll: .

I text her today telling her exactly when I want to meet and what were doing. I've not had a text back which surely isn't a good thing. However, we'll cross paths at the weekend (at work)- so if I don't get a reply, you think I should call her or just leave it until the weekend when I'll see her?

There's a lot of sexual tension between us at work (constant innuendos), so that last thing I want to do is completely change my frame with her. Unless you think I should. Thoughts?

Girl I been talking to. I managed to KC + almost fucked her but I was too drunk so I told her not to.
She texts me after we have lunch together, "This mirror isnt big enough for the two of us"

Well, you just cannot spring a date on her, without an prior framework. Atleast, exchange a message or three before you lay down the groundwork for asking her out. Wait for her reply. Don't message her again.

Also, if you see her at the weekend, just be your normal self but a bit more restrained, as if you're not completely 'okay' with her ignoring your offer. And if she asks what's up, just say nothing and get busy with your work. She should get the idea that you don't take it too kindly when she turns down your offers even after initially agreeing to going out with you. Change of frame? To an extent, not completely. Don't want to send out the message that you're a sourpuss.

That's a line from the song "Honey, This Mirror Isn't Big Enough For The Two Of Us."

If I were in your place, I'd just quote her back a few bold lyrics from the same song added with a "P.S. Love Chemical Brothers.." at the bottom.

Getting the reference, Flipping it on her, Sharing similarities.. all in one message.

I have a couple of questions for you don.

At what point does waiting to reply to a text become stupid and clunky? For example, a girl i'm texting at the moment takes a long time to reply, usually anywhere between 6-18 hours because she's busy at work during the day and with other commitments, as am i. Now i know that you're 'supposed' to wait around the same amount of time she took to text you, but in a scenario such as this you only exchange a couple of texts a day which draws conversations out over 2-3 days. To me this seems like it could be a hinderance. Thoughts?

Also, when texting to arrange a meet up, what can you do if she responds negatively or not at all? Haven't got a response from one yet and just wanting to pre-empt a follow-up message.

Yes, it could be a problem.

But, first, there is no supposition related to wait around the same amount of time that a woman takes to text you, this isn't a watch and match competition going on here. She might have free time when she's texting you, but if you wait for hours and then reply back, that's gone and then, the same cycle repeats leading to 2-3 days long conversations with a low number of overall messages exchanged.

So, here's my advice. As soon as you get a text from her, reply to it. If she replies back, well.. you have a conversation with her. If she doesn't, who cares? Get busy with something more important, it will come eventually.

Well, negative responses aren't good news. A no-response just means you need to have a greater amount of comfort equation with her, than you do currently. If she's not comfortable and doesn't have a general good feeling associated with you, she wouldn't want to meet you. It's that simple.

Thanks for the advice man. As for the no-response girl, i've already known her for 2-3 months and oral closed with her just before christmas so... i'm guessing the drawn out text conversations aren't helping there. I'll work on it. The text i sent her was :":P when you're back in [city] i'm taking you out. we'll go on an adventure".

Last question: Haven't texted a girl in about 4 months, have seen her the couple of times i've been into where she works, bit of quick chat, that's all. 4 months ago i was trying to get a day 2 with her through text, but was ULTRA AFC about it and it never went anywhere so i gave up. So i'm sat here waiting for something to cook and decide to text her out of the blue with "made you look." She replies just two minutes later with "made you look lol that's funny. you ok x" So i guess my question is, how do i go about restarting things here after such a long break? Just build a bit of comfort/rapport over the next couple of weeks, escalate, tell (not ask her this time...) her we're going on a day2 is what i'm thinking. I'm determined not to make the same mistake again.

Hey Don,
Sorry this is an online/text game question, idk to ask you or JSmooth. I recently number closed a chick on facebook. I texted her to save my number, but i told her i would text her the following day because I was busy. She said that was fine. I texted her the following day. No answer. I texted her a few hours later 'Hello, again'. No answer. I decided to message her on fb the next day 'answer me bro'. Nothing. Should I just stop texting her? Wait a few days? Text her with something funny?
ps this is some random cute girl I rarely see around my school

Hey Mr. Draper

This is a question in regards to texting/online:

Im taking to a girl via text/twitter/BBM (Known eachother for atleast 3 months, havent seen her in about 2 weeks). When we first started texting each other there would be a 1:1 ratio in regards of texting. Im noticing Im having to start off the convos with her. Plus she has a knack for not responding all together sometimes.

I called her out on it playfully, without making it seem like im upset or angry (She tweeted "I hate people who dont respond to texts", I simply replied with "Hmmmm". She then says quit catching feelings and how she doesnt want to talk to me sometimes.

With that being said, I figure I move on to someone else. But…She then texts me that same day at 3AM with a lengthy text about how sorry she was for what she said earlier. Apparently, her and her mom were getting into it and wasnt responding to her text, causing her reaction towards me.

I was very upfront with her about how I felt about her in the past, Ive told her I was attracted to her and have been nothing but honest. In response to the text..I told her I wasnt mad with her and she should make it up to me.

Since then, she has yet to initiate conversation with me through text/BMM/Twitter

Is she still interested? If she isnt, then why would she apologize?

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

I need help..

I met this girl off Facebook by saying we should do lunch when she posted on my wall something about me being a stranger.

Well now We've had two -okay- dates, but the last one was a week ago, we've been texting since then but her texts seem less enthusiastic, (Monday we were fighting over text who won the tickle fight, and now it feels like we're less than friends)

I saw the Movie Sticky and I guess I'll ask her to a movie date, but how do I do that? I think I just need some tips to get us in the right direction again..

-
Also, I have a hottub at my house, and I was thinking it might be a good idea for a hottub/wine date, even though I've never done such. Last time I asked her she said it would be bad for her new tattoo, what should I do?

Hello Don, here's my question:

I met this girl recently, we kissed while we were drunk (I'm not sure she remembers that (!) ); we were on two dates since then, but I didn't close shit.
The thing is she studies now for her exams, she said she won't be going out for quite a while (a month or so).
So, I'm wondering what are my options here:

1) If I text her, it might come off as a distraction to her studying, especially since she told me she's ''in isolation''. :?:

2) If i don't text her she might just forget about me, or chill off or something.

So, I'm not really sure what to do.

P.S. On this dates we were, we had a great time and laughs, and I think we really had something going on. :!:

Thanks in advance,
love your advices, great work ;).
