gee, thanks.
gee, thanks.
At least she wasn't the Nigerian Princess wanting to make you rich....
Man! I was rooting for you too.
You never know. You might hear from her again in six months... And chances are you will have already found a nice woman and will have to tell her she missed her chance... I've seen it happen many times.
Keep meeting people. It will happen
Considering my wife was a "wrong number" - I was trying to find another girl from a University physics class - and it has lasted over 46 years.
Sometimes it works.....
Go now and pour yourself a hot one...
You did things exactly right, and avoided any cynical or smartass reply. Not all dates work out, even dates with someone else, and you might hear from her again. OK, maybe she just wanted to enliven one Sunday, or maybe she put a lot of thinking into whether she ought to get involved, and decided against. She is entitled to do that, just like anybody else. But there is no benefit in trying to work off past grudges against women on her, or letting others persuade you into working off their grudges by proxy.
A pretty good principle is to convince yourself that if you let yourself fall into a cynical view of female motivation, they can see it. Very often they can.
I fondly recall one fellow who went to a students dance at U in 1970. He picked up a gorgeous lady at the dance and had a great time, dancing, joking laughing, and finally brought her up to his room in mens residence. This was the first year that women other than mothers or sisters were allowed in past the lounge (lobby and common room) and a fellow and girl could retire to a dorm room for privacy. There was a 2 hour window every day between 7 and 9 pm for this to happen. Sometimes a lady would stay later and leave discretely - no one tattled.
Those of us who were less than attractive to women had already left the dance and were watching television while "Bob" and his new lady friend walked through on the way to his room.
The lady was remarkably beautiful and we were all envious of "Bob".
In less than ten minutes we heard "bob" scream and seconds later the lady ran through the lounge and down the stairs (Sixth floor of a ten story high rise residence).
We rushed to see if bob was ok and he was sitting on his bed, pants off, crying and mumbling.
Apparently "Bob", while necking, had slide a hand into home base and discovered equipment of an unexpected gender.
In defense of Bob, every one of us would have made that mistake until we figured out "BoB was mumbling "she's a guy...." over and over
No one laughed at the time.
Go now and pour yourself a hot one...
