The ... line was slightly off track here, spurred perhaps by the recent CH post?
I think your girl flaked because she wasn't quite sure about you and had a sort of a pre-buyer's remorse.
The "yeah I definitely don't feel good." was less about the hangover and more about her current feelings for you. She's essentially demeaning you. If you havent yet responded, here are some suggestions -
1- "alright"
2- "excellent"
3- "..." (the same thing again)
4- (a thumbs up smiley)

Yes my bad.
Haha no worries. I'll hit her back in a few days.
She was Indian so I want to text her "just made Indian food and thought of you. How's your week going?". Should get her laughing and warming back up
No.
Assuming she doesn't reply you just got blown out. Don't use a similar line.
Wait till Wednesday.
A fake wrong text "hahahah" or wink/smirk-smiley. Ignore her ??? text.
Tell her the next day that she's being a rude neighbour and owes you a chicken tikka.
Or better just talk to her in person

So let me get this straight:
Wednesday
Me: hahaha
Her: ????
No response
Thursday
Me: You're being a rude neighbor
Her: Blah blah blah
Okay I like it. While I think the fake message is a bit contrived, I think it 's effective in eliciting a response, so it gets my approval.
Thanks

RE: The "What should I text next?" thread (for when you get stuck)
A month ago I met totally randomly a cute French girl while I was having dinner in a common night at a common place, we stayed together for a week and she had to go back home
Yesterday she sent me an unexpected message:
Code:
Hey!
News from the cold and rainy france! I was glad to see my family again and enjoy the wonderfull autumn in france.
Hope you are fine wherever you are; and by the way, where are you?
I wanted to tell you that i will work in thailand this winter! Maybe we will meet again if you are around.
Enjoy
Bisous de france.
And my response:
Code:
Hi ***, great unexpected news, I don’t know how it’s the winter in northern France but I guess you will be more comfortable in Thai ! I’m still in *** for a bit, the weather is still great but with less people around, many French though you would feel almost home.
I’m curious to see how it is around your place, when you go to somewhere you really like, take a picture and send me?
I'm finishing to take my advanced diving license and in a while I will be going around, if you manage to come a few days before you start working we can go to explore some beautiful places. Do you know where are you going to stay?
I really liked to hear from you, you made my body reacts just with the thought of seeing you again, guess it likes you !
Besitos.
This is how I usually do, just posting to get some feedback of other experienced guys.
Thanks !

RE: The "What should I text next?" thread (for when you get stuck)
So this I sent this girl a text on Sunday evening, a simple 'hey what's up'
No reply.
Until today at 1:50pm.
At about 1:30pm, I walked through the campus library. Of course, dressed and groomed well (at least better than most students), confident walk that I can almost pride myself on (chin up, almost to the point of clear arrogance but not quite). I walked by her coincidentally, but did not make eye contact. It didn't appear as if I tried to avoid it, but rather that there are too many people walking around for me to look at her specifically. Of course I noticed her and avoided acknowledging her. I could see however through periphery that she noticed me, and she actually changed her direction a bit in an attempt to avoid a direct walk by me, I think.
Anyways, her text message 'Hey, I'm good hby?'
I'm going to give a quick recap of our exchanges before all this so you guys get an idea of how I'm not sure exactly where to go with this.
Met her a couple weeks ago day approach. Tried to set something up the initial week, she was busy and told me she was free the next week. Hit her up that following week, she was receptive, we agreed on a date two days later. When the day came around, I told her if she wants she can come over for a drink later. She suggested we meet on campus instead. I told her I was at home and if she wants to meet I can pick her up and we can hangout for an hour or so and then I can drive her home. She says 'to be honest..' I don't know you too well yet so I think we should hangout over a coffee or something so we can get to know each other better.
That day got complicated so I just said 'ok, we'll do something later in the week'. I didn't text her later that week and waited until Sunday to send a 'hey what up' at the beginning of this point.
Any ideas? I don't want a boring coffee date as I want to cut to the chase and escalate but at the same time I don't want to reattempt the exact same thing I already tried. I was thinking about experimenting with some different methods, such as just being really aloof with replies and not giving a shit.
Maybe I'll wait until tomorrow (at least, given her long reply time) and just answer 'good' or 'its complicated' or something nonchalant. I read some of Roissy this week and he suggests thinking the following before replying to a text message: 'how would you respond to her text if you currently had 3 girls in bed with you at the moment?' (or something to that effect).
Anyhow I'm open to ideas. I don't care if this doesn't go anywhere I'm too busy at the moment to set aside time for dates anyways.

RE: The "What should I text next?" thread (for when you get stuck)
Met this girl this past weekend at a day party. Immediate attraction, some dancing and we made out a little before I left.
Got her number and texted her my name...
Me: Spider
... a few hours later
Her: Hii Sarah
Me: Haha I know
Her: Sorry ha it was fun chilling with you tonight hopefully see you around
Me: You wanna get lunch this week? (in college and deal with a ton of freshman so I usually meet them for lunch, then invite them over later or on the weekend if lunch/coffee went well)
Her: Absolutely
Me: I'll text you
Her: Sounds good
... 3 days later
Me: Hey, you free tomorrow afternoon?
...no response for 2 hours
Me: ?
Probably shouldn't have thrown in the question mark, as that might be seen as 'needy' but I have another girl who wants to grab lunch so I want a quick response.
I'm posting this 10 minutes after sending the ?...so it's possible she's busy or some shit, just surprised she hasn't hit me back considering she seemed pretty enthusiastic about chilling.

Maybe instead of the "hey.....etc" you cudve just asked "are we on for today"...
If she hadn't replied you shudve just gone ahead and planned with the other chick.
Quite decent the overall exchange tho, maybe she's busy or something. Don't see much u did wrong imho
yeah thanks, didn't think I did much wrong either...
she responded saying 'got classes all day tomorrow and a test thurs sorry :/
I'm not down to play games so I'll give her another chance this coming weekend to come over and pre-game at my spot or hit up a bar together.
If she makes another excuse I doubt I'll hit her up again
...For a girl that seemed really interested when you 1st met her, how many times do guys you try to set something up before giving up?
I tend to text twice, but think maybe I should be more persistent.

I'm in the vortex of texting hell right now.
I've been trying to set up a date with this girl.
12 hour response times. She purposely waits 12 hours to respond.
It's always at night when I don't want to respond, so I wait until the next morning. Then she waits 12 hours to respond.
Literally got the tip in, so she knows what will happen next time we meet.
I see two things happening:
A) She finally gives in to my persistence. We meet up and smash.
B) She stops responding.
I don't care either way beyond the fact that her games annoy the shit out of me.

Met her at a bar on Halloween. We hung out twice. The last time I saw her was on Saturday.
Tried to set up a date, here are the last two texts:
Her: "But Sundays are bad for me"
Me: "What is a good day for you?"
She was doing the whole 12 hour response time thing, so I was just frustrated and wanted to get to the point.
All I know is I'm going to the hipster bar tonight. I went there on Sunday on Labor day weekend, and that was when I met the first girl I hooked up with from the bars. Maybe Veteran's Day will be the same.

RE: The "What should I text next?" thread (for when you get stuck)
If someone replies in time I will be thankful I have about an hour of time.
Backstory:
Picked up a great looking blonde at a club for a SNL last week. The SNL happened at my place, she has already smoked weed with me at my place, she loves getting high.
We texted this Thursday night and I asked her what her weekend looked like. She responded Friday around noon:
"No plans really"
"Sorry for responding so late. just seeing your text now."
2PM
Me: "may be going out later, come over and let's smoke a bowl @6 and hangout for abit"
9PM
Her: "I am with my girl tonight, I think we maybe going out. I'll let you know."
Radio Silence
Today 2PM
Her: "I didn't run into you this weekend. Did you go out at all?"
Me: "yeah I have been, i am out right now haha what are you doing?"
Her: "I am at a coffe shop working on a few things I need to get done before 12.. I'm the biggest procrastinator espeically when high. Lol"
Me: "haha sounds fun being stoned"
Her: "Well I delayed my studies because my friends picked me up and surprised me with a blunt. So probably not for a few hours. :-)"
5PM:
Me: "tell me wheb you're done"
8PM
Me: "done soon? we should hang out tonight otherwise i am goin out a little later haha i have off tomorrow do you"
9PM
Her: "I will be done in about an hour and a half"
Her: "Or less"
So she soft flaked on me on Friday, we had no plans in stone, but she never got back to me. She re-initiates today.
Now it is sort of in the balance - Call her to set plans on meeting tonight? Text her around when she should be done? Preempt it with a place to meet/have her come over?
Or just go out, and if she texts great if not I am hitting on new girls?
I definitely want to bang this girl again and harem her if possible.
