Calling out a "Maybe" Response
So basically gamed this girl for a bit. Got a maybe response and was told to call her out on it. This is where it ended/left off. Not sure where to go from here other than to potentially freeze out for 2ish weeks. Then re-game? Could use some insight.
I'll start the convo in the middle close to me asking. The stuff before is just banter.
Her: That sounds weird hahaha
Me: Keep that daredevil lifestyle up and that'll be you! :P
Her: Not even !!
Me: When are you free next? There's beers going flat waiting for us
Her: LOL oh jeez. Well I work every day till Saturday and then that day I'm supposed to be going out but idk if I am
Me: I think I got this day long hike on Saturday.. So that wouldn't work. Why don't we aim for the following weekend?
Her: Yaa maybee
Me: Gotta be a yes or no, Missy! My schedule's a little hectic for "maybe"s :P
Her: I have a friend's bday thing that day idk when I'll be there till
Me: I'm not sure what day you're talking about tbh (No clue what day she was referring to as I said weekend lol)
Her: U said the following weekend so not this weekend but next lol
Me: You had a specific day in mind though? At least that's what I read haha
Her: I'd assume Saturday. Friday I'm busy lol
Me: Saturday's usually work best. We could try for then but I think the following Sat is best.
Me: I mean the one after next weeks lol so confusing (I should just used specifc numbered dates lol)
So no response? Nothing inherently wrong here, she's apparently invested.
Yeah that was late last night, well 12am, she takes muscle relaxers before bed though (was in car accident) so when they hit her she's out pretty fast. No reply though, so I figure it's not exactly bad but could be better. Not sure where to go from here. This week is swamped with my last 2 midterms and then a busy weekend. Plus she might be busy next weekend.
She does however seem somewhat invested. If she wanted to say "no", she would've?
Considering waiting a week or so to re-engage with just some value as opposed to pushing for a meet up for when I know we both might be busy.
Any ideas?
Yeah I imagine she'll hit you back or you could just send her something inane yet funny to reengage. Like some sort of joke on midterms slaying you or you doing a bunch of coke to study for your midterms. Something like that. Then you need to actually work on nailing down what fucking day you guys are both talking about lol. And just remember to keep the actual vision of the date sounding super awesome. You sorta got stuck on a boring sounding logistical debate.
Okay, I'll give it like until Friday and then hit her with some value if I haven't heard anything. Probably something funny, then banter back and forth a bit then dip out. Maybe keep a cycle like that going until I can pin a day for sure.
Yeah the initial date is supposed to be beers at a pub dt, then maybe hit up the beach or something. I'll have to spice it up a bit as well.
I was suggested to sort of tell her as opposed to ask her when she's free, 2 weeks from now. Since she seems luke-warm/maybe-ish.
I.e. - "Saturday night, 7:30, City's best beers and best company you could ask for ;)"
Hit her up with some value text cause I saw a funny pic that reminded me of her. I will prob re-engage her next week once or twice.
Me: *Insert pic of parent trying to be cool* Hahahahaha I have no idea why but I feel like this is you
Her: HAHAHAHAH might happen once or twice
Her: I wouldn't put it past me if we're being honest here
Me: LOL I dunno if I should be worried for the kids or laugh at them *laughing emoji*
Her: Hahahahhahahaha
I think it went well. I didn't bother replying. I'd say a repeat once next week followed up by a short convo, then the following week press for the date. Will update each re-engagement to make sure I got this down.
Any critiques are welcomed and appreciated.
Bit of an update - Went for a value text situation, but it somewhat turned into a mini-convo... then a long one. Could use some critiquing and suggestions.
Me: Walking out to set up my target at the firing range and all I could think was "Thank fuck I'm not (her name) right now.. with luck like that, I'd probably get a bullet in the ass" :P
Her: HAHAHAHAHA WOW thanks !!!! Hahahah
Me: Just conveniently popping into my head :P hahaha
Her: Hahaha jeeez
Me: Hey now, a bullet in the ass is better than in the head ;)
Her: Hahaha I guess
Me: What sorta trouble are you getting into today?
Her: Paying for my car ! Ahaha
Me: Uh oh.. You behind the wheel again (hiding face emoji)
Her: LOL shutup
Me: *Insert funny meme of bad woman driver*
Her: LOL
Her: Yes
Me: So disappointed you didn't go with the monster truck:P it's so you
Her: Right!! To pricy
Me: Pfft for a driver like you... It should be encouraged (2 laughing emjois)
Her: Hahahahhaha not even
Me: Dw I totally hate it when old ladies walk where I'm driving too... The sidewalk (car with smoke emoji)
Her: ....... ur halarious !
Me: You wouldn't happen to know if (Manager) is going to be at work tmr would you? (Logical banter a bit here, had to find out if the manager would be at the store I used to work at years ago)
Her: Umm tmrw is Friday? She is! Why?
--- Bit of pointless logical convo shit about the manager I needed more info on, but she basically offered to go and check her schedule for me and send it to me herself, awesome LOL---
Me: Thanks, you're a doll! I'll stop by soon, maybe I'll catch you slavin' away
Her: Well when are u gonna come in?
Me: I might tmr night, Sunday or Monday... LOL, when ya in?
Her: Haha I'm 8-4:30 tmr then off Sat and Sun
Me: I might go Monday. Supposed to go out tmr night, so I'll be busy. Plus I gotta go to every place I worked at.
Her: Why do you need to do that?? and ok idk what I work Monday
Me: Let me know when you do. Just references I need for the Navy application. Going to be joinin'
Her: Oh jeez really? What made you do that?
Her: 4:15 - 9:15 Monday
Me: Ya I might be able to do Monday. I've always wanted to, I love the idea of serving your country and living for more than just yourself. A lot of people don't get it, but it's just who I am. I gotta do it for myself.
Her: Fair enough! Well good job and congrats !
Me: Thanks. It's a bit of a process though, lots to take care of first.
Her: Ya true enough (felt like the convo got a little too logical here, so I tried to quickly switch it up)
Me: I'm more excited to see you in your natural habitat (laughing emoji)
Her: Omg no ahahhahaha
Me: Just trekking the halls of the great (work place) jungle (tiger and monkey emoji)
Her: Hahahahaha ewwww
Me: Maybe I'll bring my rifle.. You never know when a wild (Former Co-Worker's name) might pop out and attack.. Hahahahah
Her: LOL what the hell
Me: That's mean, (her name), don't talk about (Former Co-Worker's name) like that
--------
Then haven't gotten a reply yet but I'm pretty sure the convo is over. Went on a lot longer than I planned for it too. I'm not used to keeping girls engaged for more than one week and with this girl I gotta do it for like 2+ weeks LOL... I hope I'm doing alright with this one. She seems invested and into it from the responses in most cases but I'd rather an opinion from someone more knowledgeable.
-Bump-
Couldnuse critiquing and maybe ideas on where to go from here. Will be going in most likely on Monday as well. So, will prob run into her.
Thought I'd shoot a re-engage since I'll prob be running into her when I go back into my old work tmr. Didn't really seem to go well, imo...
Me: Got serenaded to Lady Antebellum the whole night for my last bartending shit.. Best shift ever (laughing emoji)
Her: Hahahaha what the hell that sounds fucked
Me: Hahahaha it started with "Bartender", then ended off with "Neon Light" ... Girls nights :P (Boned last night btw, success lol)
Her: Sounds interesting haha
Me: Was cool. Think your weekend could compete with that :p
Her: Haha a tad. But I wont go into detail about it lol.
Me: Why's that
Her: To tired lol got like no sleep last night
Me: Pfft party animal.. Knew you had it in ya!
Her: Hahaa
Me: I'll catch ya later since you're dead, maybe I'll see you tmr
Her: Okkk what time ru going to (work place)?
Me: Sometime between 3:30-6
Her: Ohyaaaa
She didn`t really seem that responsive. So I left the convo there anyway.
Yeah you need to run some in-person game she doesn't have a lot of attraction for you at this point.
I tried to do that today, had a bit of a run in with her. Updated it in another thread.
