Rylan's Thread of Personal Committed Relationships

Women do weird ****. You will get used to it.

[MRandall25]

Oh, believe me, I know. This is just one of the weirder situations I've been in, lately.

I think MRandall got a wrong number.

[MRandall25]

I definitely did not.

[Gaucho]

Kidding.

[Factorial]

Women are weird.

[Orlando Penguin]

Did you talk to her face-to-face after you sent the first 2 texts? If so, did you confront her about receiving the texts? I'd have at least asked about that directly if I had that chance.

(If you had done that, I'm a poor reading comprehender)

[MRandall25]

I did not have the opportunity, given that it was finals week.

[Orlando Penguin]

Copy that. Then I go with the rest of the group -- women are nuts sometimes.

[newarenanow]

Her boyfriend might have been there and she didn't respond.

I even went as far to say "If you don't want to, just say no. It's not a big deal, I'll understand" but nope, no response.

[MRandall25]

She's single.

[columbia]

It seems like you misread the situation. It happens.

Dude if you talked to her a lot you should have asked in person OR just tell her you put her number in your phone wrong.

[MRandall25]

I haven't actually seen her in person since our physiology final. Hence why I was trying to set something up via text.

And I still don't really see what was wrong with what I said there, slappy. She hadn't answered. I prefer honesty over dodging. Didn't think that THAT would be the thing everyone got hung up on. All I wanted was a yes/no instead of silence.

Nah sending that just makes you seem pathetic if indeed she was getting texts... I guess you could always try facebook instead. Either way you're what in your early 20's? Lots of girls out there, tons even. Go get one or two or however many you want.

[columbia]

If you have to badger someone for an answer, they are not interested.

[slappybrown]

Because it comes off as weak and that you have a lot of emotions. She doesn't owe you closure. You sent her a message, she ignored it. You sent a second, she ignored it. The third text makes me cringe and feel awkward for you.

[Crankshaft]

This is some high school level stuff.

Are you sure you have the right number? If you're positive, then the silence is the no. Take the hint and move on. She doesn't owe you a verbal answer. Take the social cue and move on.

Or, instead of sending texts, you could just call her. That is what the phone's main purpose is for.

i think what he did saved them both from something pretty awkward.

[Troy Loney]

The conclusion here is completely unambiguous.

Confused by the prolonged discourse.
