thanks, she has an even more adorable personality. I'm taking her out for ribs and improv tomorrow... The worst case scenario is that she rejects me and... I have ribs and see a show .. so, yeah, i don't need luck - i'm going to have a good time either way 😉
 
24 years old and you manage to "got for it" and hold her hand on the first date. SCORE! :roll:



( 😉 I'm just kidding you a bit, but you remind me of another poster... )
 
Pretty good attitude you have there on rejection. I got lucky when I met my gf. She initiated everything. We are still together... Been about 8 years now
 
I'm 5'11" and my wife is about 5'. I'm 27, she's 29, but she looks like she's 21, and I look like I'm 35, esp if I'm in work clothes.

People always think I'm older ( i suppose my weight contributes to it), but I really don't care much.

My wife loves me and that's the most important thing. 🙂

*UPDATE 2*
So she canceled today's date. She said she's not sure if she's ready for "this." I didn't ask her to define "this." I'm bummed, of course... But I removed her from my email address booked, deleted her number, and am moving on... There are plenty of girls out there, I'm just going to get drunk with the boys tonight... Sigh, yes i'm sad.. Yes she was pretty, yes she was a joy to be around. Life goes on though, right?

Firm closure prevents me from moping and thinking "Should I call her?" Because, guys, you shouldn't.. It'll just make you look more pathetic. It sounds melodramatic but I think it's best to briskly remove her from my life, be mopey for a day, get drunk with my boys, and start from scratch tomorrow refreshed.

I can't tell clearly from your picture, but you don't have one of those weird Islamic-suicide bomber beards going on, do you?


If so, that may be your problem.

No, if that was the case she would have called Homeland Security on him rather than cuddling with him.

I have a bunch of female friends and gay friends to boot, that's where I get most of my advice from. I don't want this girl as a friend, I have plenty of friends.
 
Yeah, you did the right thing. You can't chase her...you'll just look more pathetic. Its not like in all those romantic comedies that the girls eat up, where persistence pays off. IRL, persistence gets you pepper spray in the face and a restraining order.

Women do the choosing.
 
Sorry it didn't work out for you but as you said, there are other girls out there. However, I do think the whole "erase her from your life" thing is just a bit drastic. What if she leaves you a message tomorrow and says she wants to get together and you no longer have her number? (I'm assuming that you really have eliminated all traces of her from your PDAs, phone directories, email, etc.) 😛

 
Too bad it didn't work out. She does look cute but cute isn't everything...

Good luck with next time dude :beer:

I don't think she looks 12 either. I'd guess 18.

And cute of course. 🙂

You put a huge smile on my face. Listen, I'm a loser.. There's no way that you're not cooler than me... I just dont' fear rejection and this cute cool who I find has an adorable personality has at least let me watch a movie with her and cuddled with me... Maybe more will happen, maybe not... If I get rejected I'll just go right out there again and, maybe I'll succeed again. So just don't fear rejection and have fun. Rejection SUCKS but I surely learned from every rejection. Good luck 🙂

Hey now I AM NOT COOL!! I AM a loser and just to prove it, I have never been out on a date with ANY girl, attractive or not. Now that is due partly to my beliefs that dating isn't the greatest idea in the world, but still, I think I've proved my point.

And as for how you dealt with her rejection, I think it's up to you and only you know what is best for you so good luck. If it was me, I would have tried to contact her 1 more time in a week or so and see what the situation was then but you're not me.
