Yeah that definately was wuss behavior, LoL.
It's okay though, you can recover. Stop making a mountain out of a mole hill. So she didn't answer a text. Is that going to stop you from pursuing your interest??? Turn it up a notch, fella. You just have to step your game up a bit.. you have to pique her interest.. you know.. be more interesting/exciting/mysterious.. *most* girls don't like the "Are you okay? Is everything alright? I'm really sorry I didn't know you hate green peppers... I'll be sure to burn the rest.. oh your thumb hurts?? You can have mine, give me a second to get my knife.." timid/scared guys that pretty much just bow down in front of a woman..
How is your confidence around her? And tell me again, is all this over the fact she didn't answer your text?? What's the problem besides the text she didn't answer??
Not just because of one text no. The weirdness kinda started after a work night out over 3 weeks ago now. She stopped coming to see me in my department at work (although our shifts changed which didn't help), wasn't as fun on MSN as she was, started returning my texts as one word answers and so on. I did phone her at the time and she explained she'd just stopped seeing someone (was the shittest phone convo ever!).
You think she wanted me to make more effort to make things interesting? It's hard when you leave in a small place like mine to do stuff, especially when the only real way to get to her place is by car, and apparently her dad is quite a strict fella (even though I met him at the work night out - he actually told me not to upset his daughter which kinda freaked me out!). And now I possibly have!!
Here's the rub, I'm 23, and have not had a 'girlfriend' as such. I'm not a virgin but any girl I've seen has only lasted a month at most, either because she or I got bored. It's all about confidence, and being comfortable with yourself I know!! It was cool when we were friends, and the convo was flowing, but now I feel awkward. It's not as easy as it looks to just pretend you're friends and talk to her like that!
I feel like such a freakin failure!
