Quick background: extremely hot girl from high school (I am 25 now) who I used to hang with (but never kissed or banged) sends me a message on facebook in middle of may saying how buff I am and that I am looking really good (I gained 40lbs of muscle mass since high school), and asks me where I have been and why we haven't been hanging out since I moved back in 2008 (I recently moved back to the city I grew up in in order to attend med school).

I messeage her back (in mid may) saying that I will be extremely busy until late June, and that I would contact her then, and that we would hang out. She said she was looking forward to it.

Now: Its late june. I send her a text (first communication since mid may):

Me, texting to her: "Next week?".

Her response: "?".

Me: "You and I are going out next week".

(1 minute later)

Me: "I have a test on thurs so I am busy until then. Thurs night?"

This all happened 3 hours ago. I have not received a response. Did I **** something up? I am so confused.


My question is: Should I call her? Should I not even make any more attempts at contact until she does (i think this would be wiser). Or should I just wait until wed or thurs next week and shoot her a ring then (possibly wisest decision)? I can't tell if my messages were too eager or made me look too desperate.

Ah...thanks so much. You know...maybe she got a new phone and doesn't have my number in there. The last time I talked to her was june of last year, and i know she had my number then b/c she knew who i was right away. But she probably got a new phone within that time...who knows. For some reason I always thought texts were supreme...i've had such good luck with them in the past. I understand what you are saying about the non-confrontational stuff though...and how its different in this situation. I will call her next week. Thanks so much man.

mistake by the lake
your text messages where pretty vague.

i (personally) would have contacted her via phone call first or even facebook since thats a def. way of getting ahold of her.

whats done is done. so at this point i would make sure she knows who i am ..

" by the way this is Seth, get back to me so I may be able to leave that night open"

pretty simple. but dont assume to much. maybe shes out of town, dont know the person texting her, or just was busy at the moment.

It's not confusing... she's not interested in having this dialogue with you.

My guess is: Between mid May and late June she found other guys to be with.

Next time, don't put off a girl for a month and a half. Especially if she's anywhere near hot. Other guys will move in.

Agree.. she is not confused, she has lost interest or transferred it to another guy.
Even though your text was anonymous and a little vague, it contained enough info to trigger instant curiosity in a woman and, if I know woman like I think I do, she also has a magnificent memory.

The essential message from her is the absence of a reply .
That IS, in fact, her reply to your invite..

This is the reason why Text message ranks #2 to a phone call.

Men pick up the phone - boys use text.

there is NEVER a mixed up singal or an unknown with a phone call.

Did she give you her number in your facebook correspondence? If you just texted her with a number you had from 7 years ago, it could very well be someone else who sent you "?"
