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

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.
