I think it was for a bit, then it calmed down.

She bought me a couples massage for my bday, redeemed it yesterday.

We banged in the massage room after the massage. Things are back to normal but i'm of course keeping an eye.

Today this bitch I used to fuck with texted me: "Hey! I just saw this movie and you would like it if you haven't already seen it Smile"

We used to fuck regularly but about 2 months ago she flaked on me and that shit pissed me off. The next day she blew up my phone but I didn't answer or text back. I hit her back up a week later but the vibe didn't feel the same so I just went radio silence til now.

I wanna hit a couple more times and then do some shit to piss her off and dip. Possibly get into her social circle and fuck one of her friends or something just because I'm childish like that. What should I text back?

Arrange a meet?

"I'm gonna be at X place at X time" for example

If she declines maybe reply: 'pfft'.

Hi players, urgen help needed trying to set up something tonight.

Background:

Went out with OKC girl a while back, first time in a date with 6 and was stunned. No escalation. After the date texted her again and got no response.
----------------
Been mass texting her few months.

Finally got response today. It's clear she deleted my number and doesn't remember me.

Her: yupp who is you???
Me: I have you as "drunken sex story she told me about on our last date" let's grab a drink at X
Her:Gahahah oh great. well I have work later and like 3 diff places I need to be tonight, but let's make it four
Her:Can we do Y? It's a bar by my place
Her:Just so I have time to sit for like 10 minutes between work and party time
--------
Not sure if I should play into her frame (but she did mention its a bar by her place) or otherwise...

Unless she asks me a question that requires an immediate answer, I wait at least 12 hours before replying to a text or IM. 36 hours on average. Sometimes as long as a week. It gives me plenty of time to think of the perfect answer, and makes it clear that I'm not needy or desperate.

Maybe it's time to stop being "childish." Sounds like you're going to burn a lot of energy and time for truly marginal results. It also sounds like she's living rent free in your head.

IMHO, that type of energy could be better spent on other pursuits and other women. No reason not to keep in touch with this one if you want her in your harem. But becoming spiteful because she did what women do - flake - is losing YOUR frame.

YMMV.

I set up a date for tonight with some chick

Sounds like she wasn't into my choice because she mentioned eating some sushi.

I told her I would of already eaten by then and she responds with,'we'll you can still drink while I eat."

Told her we can reschedule for another day.

Anything I could of text differently? Only reason I totally didn't ignore her is because she is 21.

I'd reply with, "Make it 11 minutes and you're on"

She's already set up an escape clause saying she has limited time, and partying to do, but she's giving you a chance, and if it goes well she may end up partying with you. PLUS, this is an internet chick, don't put much stock into what happens/doesn't happen.

I'm not trying to be a dick, but this is awful advice. You should try to match your response time to hers, and occasionally respond much slower or faster to see how she reacts. If you wait 12-36 hours to respond to every message, she will likely lose interest.

Ha, that's kind of weird, maybe she just doesn't like eating alone, or was just hoping you'd pay for her to eat sushi. I might've said something like "Oh OK, I didn't think of that." Then waited to see how she responded to a text that really gave her nothing to work with, mainly to see if she still pushed for a time to meet, etc. Might've still ended up rescheduling in the end though.

replied to her around 10pm, no reply. oh well I don't need to be her pregame of the night

10pm was probably too late... again though - internet chick, so I wouldn't put any stock into the results here.

Go with your hunch.

Her response: Hahaha not really trying to make anything work

Same chick restarted me last night. She's been upstate working during the summer.

Her: I'll be around next weekend. Are you doing anything interesting?


Prior to this, she sent another strange text last week.

Her: So are we going to pretend text some more?
Me: ?

I'm talking to a girl on OKC and I open her with:

me: "How curvy?"

Her: I don't know how to answer that and that's kinda rude soooooooo Wink

I'm not sure if she's closing me out, how to continue. Thanks bros.

For background, this is the girl I met at the supermarket last week http://www.rooshvforum.com/thread-14130-...#pid789053

Quote:<last week>Me: Is this the girl who makes impulse purchases totally inappropriate for her car?
<today>Me: Hey <girl's name>, it's RockHard
<2 hours later>Her: Hello. I'm sorry I didn't text back earlier. I realized that I probably led you on ("snookered"?!) you without meaning to... I'm in a very happy relationship and felt bad that I didn't communicate that when I gave you my number, but I also didn't want to make assumptions about your intentions, so I wasn't sure what to say. Regardless, I am still extremely thankful for your help the other day and I will be sure to pay forward your kindness when I have the opportunity.

Now she's clearly trying to brush me off. I've had this happen before but never had any success recovering. Is there a good recovery here, should I embrace the friend zone and play long game, or should I just forget it?

Any suggestions? I'm not stuck on her and there's more where she came from, but I'd like to see if anyone has a solution. Also, if it makes a difference, I'm also in an LTR, so a side piece with an interest in discretion is ideal.

CJ 路 2014-07-28 17:43:00 路 #868
^ I don't like that strategy here. Going direct via text on a day game pick-up is going to work less than 1% of the time... if that.

Your chances of recovery are super slim regardless though. I know plenty of girls that have lied about being in relationships before, because they were scared to say they weren't interested. Doesn't look like the case here. If you must follow up, go with a:

"No worries, let me know if you ever want to hang out (as friends)."

Yes you're lying, yes she knows that, but it gives her plausible deniability in her head and may make her think it's ok to hang out.

Personally, I wouldn't even bother, because the amount of work that will likely go into this could be better focused on other girls.

Yeah, as I saw it, it was
1. Ignore the text completely, next!
2. Hey, I'm in an LTR too, it's cool. (tried this a couple times before, never worked)
3. don't treat her objection seriously.

I went with option 3 and texted back "here I thought you'd given me a number that would spam me with "you've won the lottery!" texts"

My main sticking point with daygame is building some attraction to bring up when I contact her again. I thought I had done OK with that, but apparently not.

You should re-frame and try and friendzone first if you really want to pursue.

"cool, I am sorry you misunderstood but perhaps we should just be pen-pals."

Let her hamster go crazy and don't respond again. Women remember this shit, if you ever see her again, the dynamic would have altered.

I got one.

Was out with my buddy this past Friday and this hot pair of chicks played pool next to our table. They asked us to play and the cute little readhead came right up to me and started touching me. Got her number and I text her today. Been going back and forth, a good interaction. For some reason she text me a link to a webpage of roosters. I said "wow, that's quite a collection of cocks there."
She text back "I see what you did there...there's a time and place for this nonsense." I told her "There is? Musta missed that memo." She said that's must've been what happened, then I asked for a rematch in pool tonight, 9pm. This was an hour ago (her longest time between texts before this was 5 minutes). Did I miss something?

Probably was busy or wasn't interested. What exactly was this "going back and forth" conversation you were having ?

You could throw a restart text later this week.
jbird669 路 2014-07-29 18:37:00 路 #874
Talked about a rematch at pool. Told me she wondered when she'd hear from me. Asked about my job, liked my response and said I was very interesting. Asked where I worked so she could promptly stalk me. Then the rooster link came.

I don't like option 1 that much, but that's if I just stop completely (even if it's the right move) I don't get to test anything new, and get more information.

Option 2 is kinda sleazy and may work on a girl that you picked up from the bar, is at your place now and is giving LMR, but otherwise I'm not doing that because most girls will think you're a creep.

Option 3 is ideal. Gonna guess this one didn't respond though. You could try a restart text, might even be worth it for the research aspect, but don't spend too much time on this and go into that approach knowing full well you're extremely unlikely to bang this girl. You're just gauging what does and doesn't have a chance to work with zero consequences.
