My coworker had been making innuendo all day and it's driving me crazy. She's like 12 years older than me but I'd wreck that.
"Would you like to stand close to me outside of work? ;OOOOOOOO"Is it always a bad idea to ask someone out at their work?
Last week, I got fitted for contacts and the optometrist's assistant showed me how to put them in. I've never been great at picking up signals, but she had a big smile when she called my name when I was up, and then during the procedure she stood close, put her foot on the bottom part of my chair when sitting to my left, and some other stuff. She also handles the front desk, so I'll get a chance to talk to her on my way out on my next visit tomorrow.
Normally, I wouldn't even consider something like this, but the signs seemed pretty strong. And if she says no, I probably won't see her until my next appointment in a year.
She knows you, so it doesn't sound creepy to message her.
"Hey I remember seeing you a couple days ago at so & so place but didn't really get a chance to talk to you. I would like to get to know you better, want to grab coffee this weekend?" or something to that effect.

Hello everyone, I am kind of new to the whole idea of online dating websites and a bit green when it comes to dating as a whole so I was wondering if I could ask for some advice and a quick critique of my profile over at OKC. The only thing I can think that could be improve is the lack of pictures "not much of a photo person" the link is below, thanks.

Im so lonely i am actually contemplating doing the cupid thing again. Last time i did it was your typical demoralizing nightmare. Only thing stopping me is i dont have any good pictures. Funny how you look back on the old photos you used and realize how creepy you looked. 31 years of solitude does crazy things to you.
Just my own opinion. If you ever feel like you're "bugging" a girl, take some time off from messaging her. Remember, people can say the opposite of what they really think. And honestly, who's going to have the guts to tell you you're bugging them? I feel like its not a bad idea to be casual when you're in the first stages of dating. Again, just my opinion.I wish this girl would text more, because she's hard to read over text and makes you feel like you're bugging her when she says you're not. Well, says I'm not.

As expected she saw the message and didn't reply. Bummer.![]()

idk I just thought that was what people did. i've pretty much never had a gf, just fuck buddies and one night stands. this is uncharted territory for me. by this point, me and the girl have either had sex or or just friends. I mean I figure we are exclusive as well,b ut isn't there a point that comes when that talk needs to be had?
Ok GAF, how often do chat up a girl, ask her out for coffee, get her number, text her; and then have her tell you via text she has a bf?
Because that's what happened to me yesterday when I tried to get someones number in real life for the first time ever, at my university.
Yeah, that's a possibility. But why even answer my texts (Plural, because we chatted back and forth for a while before she casually mentioned the boyfriend) then?Sounds like she didn't really want to give you her number and is now just making excuses.
People like attention.Yeah, that's a possibility. But why even answer my texts (Plural, because we chatted back and forth for a while before she casually mentioned the boyfriend) then?
I wish that I was a mind reader who could see the future, as well. Or, at least one of the two.
Reason: I want to know what the girl I'm dating is thinking. She's very tough to read via text, but not in person.
I've already regaled you with the synopsis of the date, so I won't write that again. But she mentioned coming here (15 minutes away in a different town than she's from) to spend the day, maybe go for food. That'd be Saturday when she's off.
I was hoping she'd be excited and want to do something one night before that, and that I could go to her place or something and watch a movie or game. Nothing special. Then we could do that on date 3, but she doesn't seem to be someone who really likes to do much after work. It worries me going forward.
Then again, we've only been on one date.
I spoke to her today, but didn't bring up my feelings. I just asked if she would like to do something again soon, and she said Saturday would work best. She's not sure if she'll come out here or not, but isn't sure of how long she would for. Though she'd mentioned spending the day before, it'll depend on how long she sleeps because it's her only day off. But I brought up going for a movie and she wants to do that.
I think I'm jumping ahead too much mentally, because I'm new to this and really want a relationship where I see the other person a lot.
If you ever think that you're overthinking things, then you probably are. Just let things flow, you're gonna see each other Saturday, it's gonna be fun, all of the relationship stuff comes with time and patience. Just because she isn't jumping to do something a night before that doesn't mean she's not excited, you just can't rush things.

Went on date #5 yesterday and we're supposed to meet up again later today, so I guess I can probably stop counting dates now.
Not to sound like a broken record or anything, but this girl is absolutely amazing. Way better than I deserve in many ways, yet she seems totally crazy about me (as I am about her). It's almost like a dream. If she was trying to steal my kidneys, I'm sure she probably would have done so by now, so I think it's safe to say she legit likes me. Woo!
is asking someone out twice and getting the "i'm busy or have plans" response without an alternate a good sign to move on? i feel like she's interested since she still messaged me after the date, and still responds to all my messages. i haven't talked to her since she said she had plans already. i just wanted to see if she would initiate anything, but it's been silence.

Time to move along to the next girl.
My gf broke up with me 4 weeks ago, I posted about it a bit here. Long story short I thought we would get married someday, so did she, but she had some personal issues resurface and she felt she couldn't be in a relationship and had to deal with them on her own. Two weeks later we talked things over, I asked her out again, she said she wasn't ready. Then we had sex all night.
Today I texted her just to see how she's doing and told her I missed her. She said she misses me too. We chatted for a bit. At the end I said we should go for a run together sometime this summer (which we used to do all the time). She said she would really like that. She also wants to go hiking and rafting with me.
I still want her back and I know she has feelings for me too. I'm not getting my hopes up, but the fact that I may get to see her again just gives me a little light that I sorely needed.
I know, I know. Move on. Don't worry, I'm taking care of myself. I am content as a single person. I'm also naive, and I accept that about myself. I like my naive self better than my cynical self.
Anyways, we may never even meet at all but just know that she thinks about me feels good.
Bunch o text
I'm no longer single! After almost thirty years, the drought is over! Haha
The girl I went to the restaurant with on Monday texted me today to tell me she had the day off. We had planned to spend time together and see a movie tomorrow, but she wanted to know if I'd like to do that today. I wasn't doing anything, so she took the bus out here and I picked her up at the stop.
Although it wasn't planned, she met my family and spent time here for a little while. She wanted to watch me play video games while reading manga (I guess that's how a lot of her dates have gone and she finds it comfortable that someone she's with can do that and keep a conversation going). Then, we went out for Chinese food, came back, and went back out later to see Unfriended.
Before we went to the movie theatre, I had to sit with my handicapped sister at a retirement home she was singing at, because family had to bring another family member in a wheelchair and our van only holds one. She came, put up with it and was nice about it, then we went to the movies. But she met some family/friends there, and told me in the theatre that she almost introduced herself as my girlfriend to them. So that started us talking about it.
She seemed really giddy after saying yes, and quickly changed her Facebook status.

My lesson of the night, can't be reserved past a certain point if at all. Gotta break out of it.
Care to elaborate some more on this or at least do a nutshell version as to what happened?
