Even though i feel that i have moved on, there are still some instance when everytime her picture pop up on facebook or instagram, i'd get a bit uneasy, like i still have a bit of feelings for her. Is that normal ?

Btw its a girl i used to really love, not an ex gf though.
Yes
 
Well I've been talking to a girl lately. Seems lovely but it's only early days and we seem to be on the same wavelength on things.

I must admit I thought I had confidence issues when talking to girls or asking them on dates etc. But after seeing some people post in this thread, I've realised I'm nowhere near as bad as I thought.

Didn't you just call it off with a girl because you haven't got over your ex? What changed?

Nothings changed, I'm just talking to some new people. I'm just seeing what happens at the moment. I'm not wanting a serious relationship, if I meet someone who I really connect with and feel happy and content around then I'll probably pursue it, but I'd have to really connect them more than I did with the previous girl I was seeing. I've seen my ex a couple of times and I'm taking more steps to get over her, last weekend was a real step forward in doing so.
 
Well, I haven't heard from the girl I like back home... I do wish I had spare time here on my voyage to chat with the locals (and stuff). After all I wouldn't feel guilty.

I kinda wish I knew how to get free from my trip mates without specifically explaining my plans... Maybe I'll tell them "I would like to speak French with the locals..."
 
Ignored. Twice in a week.



Not like her at all...

Maybe she's busy...If I were you I wouldn't worry, she is close to your family so there's no way she would simply ignore you like that. I know some girls who love to talk to people but they aren't big fans of messaging, so maybe your girl is like them.


Anyone else out there- if you have any relationship issues, I can help. I am a good listener, and I give decent advice :P. I've been through a lot of drama in most of my relationships so I have a good idea of what girls could or could not do. PM me if you want to talk :)
 
I tried texting her yesterday and it happened. Usually as answers within 10 minutes and if she doesn't then she isn't answering. Its just not like her to do that. Not lately anyways. She's one to talk in person, not a huge texter. Once in a while I might get something a bit long but she has no problem talking I me in person. Just like when I spent time with her alone las week. Best few moments of my life.

That's the thing, maybe she need some space. This one girl I used to talk to was like this, but if you don't reply to her for a while (say a week), then she'll miss the attention and come back.
 
She's not one to text anybody outright unless they text her first, doesn't matter who it is. I know she's not ready to dive into anything yet but I stopped pressing her a while ago. I'm just trying to let it happen. Its about the only thing I look forward to these days.

Yes, forcing it will not work. If she sees you not pressing her anymore, then she should be more inclined to talk to you.

Maybe she needs a little space. If you're texting her every day and constantly smothering her, it's no surprise she doesn't text you at all first

The thing is I don't text her everyday, its usually once , maybe twice a week. Sometimes 3 times if I'm feeling lucky.
 
Not a whole lot anymore since we all graduated. I used to text 24/7. She's really the only person I talk to for the most part other than GTP. Most of my friends I just go hang out with which isn't too often these days. Usually its once or twice a week. Once a conversation gets going it usually lasts most of the day. I know I sound like a whiny little bitch but with everything going on in my life its the only thing I can honestly say keeps me going other than 1 other thing. I got a lot of garbage on my plate right now.
 
You need to get out more. Plain and simple. If you can get other things going in your life and have some fun, she'll see that and probably want to join in

That's what I have been doing lately. I'm actually at my buddies house right now. I've been trying to get her to hang out more. She's just very hard to read.

Truth. Because when you get out more, you realize "holy crap! I have wasted my whole budding adult life trying to find the wrong girl!"


I need a redhead :lol: I counted all of the redheads in Québec city (I'm here for a trip) and I saw 28 exceedingly beautiful (10 out of 10) women here alone.


I so badly want to date a redhead...


---------------
Things might not be going well with car girl. She hasn't messaged me since before my trip on Monday. :( I hope she doesn't hate me for something. I messaged her on Tuesday. She's a redhead car girl; my idea of perfect.


I also found out, her birthday is the same as my best friend's birthday... Dec. 30th. This makes that impossible to forget.

Hey either way, life moves on. I respect a committed person because that's very noble, but at the same time, committing for life at a young age is like leaving the party at 8:30 to me
 
Some of you guys may remember that I liked this girl I work with and I asked her out face to face after a month of trying to find the courage. She said yes, and I also got her phone number. A few days later I asked her by text message if she wanted to hang out on Thursday once she finished college, and she said she was "busy". I set her a message a few days after that, asking how her day had been etc. and she didn't reply back.

Since then, when we were both in work together I felt a little awkward about the whole situation as I was under the impression she wasn't interested, and may even a little annoyed with me(because she didn't get back to me).

Well, a few days ago she started talking to me again in person when we were working in the same area of the shop, and she was still giggling at nearly everything I said, and seemed interested about me, such as asking what I was studying at school and things of that nature.

Then, the next day she text me first for the first time (I was always the one who initiated the conversation), because she said she saw me walking back from the gym. From then, we text each other back and forth for about an hour twice that day (a lot longer than before). I said to her I was sorry if I annoyed her when she didn't reply to my text a few weeks ago, and that was why I didn't talk to her much because I thought she was annoyed with me. She said she was sorry but she forgot to get back to me, and then said that she felt horrible about it.

The day after that, I came into work and this girl I'm friends with (Lauren) said the girl I was texting was talking about me, but Lauren was then interrupted so I didn't ask her about what she said. But Lauren is in work later, so I'll ask her tonight if I can. Hopefully it was something positive 👍.

She's on holiday in Spain now for four weeks, so hopefully I'll get to speak to her again soon. Maybe I'll ask her out on a date one last time when she gets back to England, but maybe to somewhere we can get to know each other a bit better, like at a bowling alley or something, and not the cinema which I suggested to her before :)



I apologise if this saga is clogging up the thread by the way :P
 
Women; they want what's right in front of their face, looks good and is nice, fun and charismatic.

Men; they want what looks good.

----------------------
She was probably interested in a different guy then... @Ryanswannell

Good luck this time, though. :)
