Pretty Much Done

[built4speed]

Well, I can only assume. Everything seemed to be going well. After out initial meeting, I only saw her once in person for about 45 minutes. It was at her daughter's 21st b-day gathering at a bar. So we didn't really have 1-on-1 time. I think my mistake was this: at one point she and her daughter started talking about their tatoos. She said, "B4S hasn't seen it yet, but it's way down on my lower back." I thought, hmmm, haven't seen it yet, huh? So whispered in her ear about that apparent Freudian slip, in a flirting way. She didn't really respond either way, just kept talking.

Then Monday (after I was out of the country for a week, and only texted her a few times during my trip) I get this huge three-message text saying she is not sure about this Tuesday outting - it seemed too much like a real date. Hmmm. I asked if I could call her, but she was at work and she just said talk after 5. So I called on my way home, no answer. Not good. morning of the show I called early before work and mentioned that I might be slightly later than we had planned and how about 7pm, and please call me. No ack.

So then after lunch I texted her saying dinner was at 7 and see you there, and she texted back that this was not going to work and to please stop! What???

So it went from we are definitely on to definitely off with no actually verbal discussion. At first I was just thinking this is just her, but thinking about it I can see what happened. But I thought I processed my emotions slow! Hers took 10 days from see you at the concert to don't call me again, with no additional contact between us!.

I totally understand that I was sending two messages and have learned form that. But I wish I could have had five minutes to straighten this out: I would have just said she was right that I was not acting enough like "just friends" and that I would do that better, because I really can't be in an R, the tanks are too low right now. But I didn't get the chance and I'm hardly into begging. That said, doesn't it seem a but un-adult-like to not even have the verbal discussion? That I will blame her for.
