I Dont Know What to Do Know!!! Posted: 04-04-07 00:44am
Here goes, im 22 and have never had a gf
before, I have always liked girls but have
always been too focused on school and I
have always been kinda overweight so I
never really went after anyone, I have
recently lost alot of weight and everyone
tells me about how good I look now. Well
just recently in December I got a new job
and I met this girl there that just
floored me. I dont know if it was love at
first sight but from the moment I met her
I told myself I have to have this girl.
The bad part was she only worked in my
office once a week and when I would go
into work it was almost time for her to go
so we would never really get a chance to
talk or anything. On a few occasions I did
get to talk to her for about an hour
though, but most of the time it was only
for about 10 minutes at the most.
On valentines day I said, f it and I sent
her flowers to her office with a secret
admirer poem and an email adress in case
she wanted to contact me. Well she started
contacting me and we exchanged a few good
emails, she was just dying to find out who
I was and really had no clue who sent the
flowers to her. about 1 week and a half
later I showed up to work and she was
there, the whole time we were in the
supply room talking alot more than we had
ever talked before. All of a sudden she
said I gotta go and she left work really
fast at about 5pm.
I got out of work at about 9pm, got home
and checked my email and I got an email
from her at about 5:10 pm. The email said,
" I think I know who you are now, I think
I saw you at work today, when will you let
me know who this is?" So then I replied to
her and confirmed it was me. The next day
I showed up to work and all of a sudden
started recieving text messages from
someone and I was like who the heck is
messaging me. Well it was her and she told
me that she got my cell number from the
roster at work. Out of nowhere she texted
me a pic of her where she looked
absolutely gorgeous, she then told me she
wanted a pic of me and to go take one in
front of a mirror. So I went and took one
and sent it to her and she said it was
cute. Basically after that we started
texting eachother alot the rest of the
week. I was excited because we were both
going to be working in the office alone on
friday of that week.
Well friday came and I showed up to work
with a couple of roses, I guessed which
car she drove was and left a rose on her
winshield and then gave her a rose when i
went into the office. She was really
excited to see that I brought her a rose
and got up and gave me a huge hug. That
whole time at work everything seemed to be
going to great, we were both getting to
know eachother alot better, we started
asking eachother alot more personal
questions and basically we both had so
many things in common. A client came into
the office for some services that only an
employee that was showing up a half hour
later was going to be able to help him
with. Normally we just tell people like
that to wait in the lobby, but she tried
to get him to leave and come back in about
half an hour but he stayed there and
waited. We both looked at eachother and
asked ourselves, why the heck did he have
to come in.
Eventually the other employee showed up
and took this man into his own office. Me
and her talked for a few minutes more. She
had to leave because she was going to go
pick up her little brother but kept asking
me, should I stay longer, I just told her,
you dont have to ask me that, you know
what im going to say. Well eventually a
couple of minutes later she left, she gave
me a huge hug goodbye and started walking
out of the office, she then wanted me to
walk her out but I couldnt leave the
office unnatended so I was not able to go
walk her out, honestly I dont know if that
was a mistake or not, but ohh well. When
she got to her car she saw her flower and
sent me a text saying that I made her feel
so special and that no guy had ever done
these things for her. The rest of the
night we kept texting each other and
everything seemed to be great, i asked her
if we were going to see eachother again
soon and she said yes we would.
So then 2 days later I sent her a text
saying Hi, so then she just asks me, "can
I ask you something" and basically told me
that if im looking for a relationship with
her that she didnt want to hurt my
feelings or get her feelings hurt and she
was just really too focused on school and
work right now and wasnt looking for a
relationship with anyone. I really dont
know what the heck happened but perhaps it
had to do with her being 18 and me being
22 years old. I never really told her that
I wanted a relationship or wanted to be
her boyfriend or anything either. So then
basically we agreed that we wanted to get
to know eachother alot better and would
like to be friends and didnt want anything
to change between us. Now her mom also
works for the company and she is one of
the higher ups and was going around
checking some of the different offices in
the district. She went to my office and
basically introduced herself to me and
said "hi nice to meet you, im "womans
name" girls name here's mom. I have a
coworker in the office and she is really
good friends with her mom and she told me
that the only reason she went to the
office was because she was dying to meet
me and that she thought that I looked very
handsome. I really dont know if that
really means anything but I just wanted to
include that.
A few days later some dumb drama happened
in my office where some lady was saying
some dumb stuff about her and basically
she isnt going to work in my office at all
anymore so there went all my chances of at
least talking to her or seeing her at
least once a week. We kept texting
eachother for the next couple of weeks and
everything seemed to be going cool. When
we first started talking I had asked her
if she ever wanted to go to a Lakers game
and she said yes for sure. Around the
middle of march i texted her and asked if
she wanted to go to a laker game, she
texted me back asking when, then I told
her sunday and she never replied to me. I
felt kinda dissapointed and didnt text her
like for a week.
I know she liked basketball because she
told me shes all into the NCAA Tourny and
played bball in high school, I then texted
her a week later on a friday and asked her
if she wanted to come over and watch some
of the NCAA sweet 16 basketball games and
she replied to me saying that she couldnt
because she was at her friends house. I
then stopped texting her for another week,
when i finallly texted her I said hi and
she was just like "hey" I said hows work
and she was just like "good i guess." I
felt like she was a bit unresponsive so I
was just like man im wasting my time now.
A couple of days later one of my girl
cousins told me to just call her. So i
called her on a saturday night but it was
kinda late, it was almost 11pm she didnt
answer so i left a voicemail just saying
whats up and wanting to know how she was
doing, she didnt call me back. On sunday
night I called her at about 9pm and once
again no answer, thats basically where I
stand right now. I dont know whether I
should keep trying to even talk to her or
anything, I dont know if I messed up at
some point by not doing things right, I
never had a girlfriend so I didnt really
know how to do things. Perhaps I messed up
by not calling her up until a couple of
days ago, and also by waiting about 1 week
in between text messages. I truly believe
there was something there between us and I
dont want to just cut her off. That last
day we spent in the office together was
just too good for me to think that there
was never anything there, the way she
would look at me that day was just
something else. Anyone with some advice as
to what i can do, right now I just want to
see if I can restore things back to
normality where she is at least more
responsive to me. If I cant do that I will
perhaps see her one more time this year at
some banquet/dance we are going to have
for work in about a month. Sometimes I
feel like I will never see her again and
it just kills me. Help!!!!!

Well my man, it looks like you didn't
close the deal quick enough in my
eyes...you made her feel special, but with
all the texting and emailing, you might
not have had enough actual voice and/or
face to face time...my meaning is, she
felt special and giddy, but then that
faded quickly and she may have figured
"Well, he hasn't asked me out or we
haven't had a lot of conversation,
so...."
I don't know if this is actually how she's
seeing things or not, just a shot in the
dark. Try talking to her more and more,
but don't get all pushy and start crying
and poo, be a man and show her you're
strong but available. Good luck!

To me it sounds like you did all the right
things. It sounds like there may have been
something there between you but she may be
running scared. Sounds like she is giving
you the cold shoulder by not answering
your calls and being short and sweet with
any txt replies. What you should do is
send her a txt stating that you would like
to be friends (maybe more than) and hang
out and that you leave the ball in her
court and let her make the decision. Let
her know but also dont go chasing after
her as if she is not wanting anything at
the moment that would be a turn off.
Unfortunately relationships can be a
fickle thing.
Good Luck

that you'd like to still be friends...

I didn't see any reason why you'd think
the girl is not into you. From what you
said, I think she is. But basically, like
what the girl said, she's not into
committing to someone yet because she
wants to focus more on school and work.
But obviously, there was a connection
there. But because you were away from each
other, her feelings probably went down.
You lost physical communication. My advice
is to let her know what you truly feel to
end the agony of waiting for any
developments. Tell her how much she means
to you and how much the talking during the
past few weeks have been .Tell her how
special she is. Women love those.
