So, I called the girl I had gone out on a walk with a few weekends ago. We had talked on the phone for a bit on Saturday. I called her last night. We were having decent phone conversation but her phone was breaking up (we were both on cells). She said she would call back later that night.......no call. Why say you'll call and not?

Maybe she feel asleep. Maybe she did not feel like talking later. Could be many things. But if you really feel this makes ladies confusing your doom as its no big deal. Happens all the time with some girls, don’t take it personally.

Her cell might have been dead.
Maybe a friend dropped by.
Maybe someone else called her.
Maybe she passed out.
Maybe an alien abducted her.....
Relax man...give her another call the next day.

Just kidding M way to put yourself out there, be the man, be the one and all that jazz. I'm proud of you, as the saying goes...."you've come a long way baby" it only gets better from here.
As far as women are confusing....no s..t you just now figuring that out? No means yes unless it mean no then again it may mean maybe....no wonder I keep ending up in jail, going to stick with drugging them so I don't have to ask em <just kidding girls back off, and put those handcuffs away unless..........>
I really should work some today.

LOL. I figure what have I got to lose being a pest. If she hasn't told me she's not interested, then maybe she doesn't know herself then. She's certainly not going to be interested if I don't show an interest in her. Ultimately, I'm separated and down the path to a divorce. The worst thing that could possibly happen to me in life has already happened (well, I guess there are some worse things) but I figure rejection from a stranger is a cakewalk at this point.

so are men! j/k
i'm glad you called her. from my standpoint as a woman (but not a dating one, so take this for what it's worth). some of us still like to keep it old-fashioned in the beginning stages and have the man do the asking. give her a chance. you never know.

Hey,as long as she is interested in you,and it sounds like she is,you are the one who has just be yourself,have fun,and don't sweat it.
If you are looking for a relationship,then,dude its gonna be hard.
It will find you and it will be better,hopefully.
I have meet many women who are just looking for a friend and someone to fill in the empty spaces.

I read in a book somewhere that we're supposed to "forget" to call you back, that way you will go crazy thinking about us-bet she read the same book. I think it was in "He's Not That Into You" So I think it means she really likes you. Or it could mean she just fell asleep.
Have fun on your date.

You never didn't return a call you said you would ?
Geesh dude - you really need to step back and gather yourself. This sounds like a real quandry ! For a 14 yr. old. Pick up the phone and call and ask. (no rolling eyes doohicky ?)

Way to go Markie, Our baby boy is growing in leaps and bounds.
Slick back your eyebrows, chest out, and let the charming begin. Hey, take a note pad so that you can fill us in on
all the juicy or boring details. Either way it goes it's all good.

I decided it's not worth my time. I'll let her start calling the shots. I called her and left a VM and sent another text message and haven't heard back. We were going to go play mini golf tonight but I'm not going to spend my time chasing her down. Her loss. :-) There are a lot of other women out there that I've been talking too as well.

Patience,,,,
Yea, don't get too attached right away. Now is the time to let her call, if she ever does.
Then ask yourself, was there any instant chemistry? was there any common interests or personality? The thing with dating, is to handle the rejection. Keep in mind, it's gonna happen, could happen. Key is not to give up. Broaden those horizons, be more honest about yourself and what you're looking for.
Its like fishing, sometimes you might as well throw it back and cast your reel again.

Oh yeah. Don't worry. I'm not giving up. I've thrown several lines out into the pond. I'm not going to take it personally if she doesn't call back. Her loss. Was there chemistry? Well, we only met for an hour in person. We had a few nice phone conversations. We do have things in common. I figured if we got together a few more times we could see if there was chemistry or not but like I said, no skin off my back. Plenty of other wonderful women out there more deserving. :-)

Don't let her get you down mfergel. Dating has to be a numbers game-the more people you meet, the better your chances of finding a good one.

M -- YEP!! Women are very confusing (my situation that I thought cleared up, may not of), but man they are amazing! While their confusing nature is frustrating, it also makes them so worth the desire and chase!
I will keep the head spinning confusion as long as women stay wonderful.

I don't know. When I asked her, I offered the choice of mini golf or bowling. She said mini golf. I then asked (well texted) if there was one close to her and she said yes. If she didn't want to do mini golf, she could have said, "I don't care for either but I'd love to XYZ".

a little input.
i didnt realize i had a 'no fly zone' kind of deal but i do,
and no way a guy could know what it was since i didnt even know.
but, turns out i have an aversion to certain statements and comments even very friendly ones, at the start of a dating senario.
through one of those out there and 'click'....good bye.
and, its NOTHING really! just not what i want to hear or deal with at this stage of the game.
so, it could be some goofy things that shut down a potential relationship! from not liking guys who dont wear socks with loafers, a guy who knocks back one to many during dinner, or the state of cleanliness of a guys car.
NONE of these even really matter! (and none are what makes me shut things down) BUT everyone has some goofy "no fly zone" items that another person wouldnt even put on the radar.
so...who knows, maybe she didnt like the font of your text. LOL.
so...mfergel...'click' and move on to date potential #4!
and it was NOT the mini golf! even if it was! try it on the next girl. it's a cute idea!

Hey Ferg, I'd go mini-golfing with you(or bowling or both) but I think the plane ticket would be a little on the excessive side!!! BUMMER!!
