Here's my interpretation of what happened:
So I met this girl online. I wasted a lot of time chatting on Snapchat, which turned her off and made me look like I didn't have much of a life. She started to get bored and disrespectful, even ignoring my texts, but when the day of our date came she didn't have anything else to do so she decided that she might as well go and have a free meal with sucker number #1018 so she texted me to cash in her free meal voucher.
The date was an EXTREME waste of time. She sat there flapping her lips (not the ones I like) for three hours whilst sucking down everything on the menu. She made sure that she stayed far away from me by sitting on the opposite side of a big wide table in a place surrounded by onlookers so that I couldn't even touch her hand.
Instead of taking her somewhere more suitable where I could get her alone, get close to her and escalate, I just sat there and listened her her drone on whilst agreeing with everything she said until she got bored of spending my money and wanted to go and meet the next sucker on her list. I tried to set up another free meal session but she gave me some bull**** excuse about her work schedule needing to be updated. Then she went back to ignoring me.
Is only calling you when they want free food and attention something women do to seem like they’re not interested, or should I assume she’s genuinely not interested and move on?
Conclusion: this biatch only met up with you because she wanted a free meal and someone to listen to her yap. She probably does it every weekend.
Your mistakes:
- inviting a woman that you don't know out for a free dinner (next time take her for a walk in the park or to get an icecream by the river)
- not escalating by getting close and touching her to gauge her level of interest (which you made difficult for yourself by choosing an unsuitable location)
- believing her excuses instead of watching her actions
Next time, instead of dinner meet a girl at a subway station and take her for a walk in the park or along the river and make sure you touch her subtly as much as possible to see her reaction. If she's not cooperative or tries to steer you towards some expensive restaurant, tell her "it was nice meeting you. I have to go see a friend now" and then just walk off. That way you'll save yourself a lot of time and money. Also, if you can schedule 2-3 dates per day so that if one cancels you'll still have the others to look forward to and you won't even remember the biatch that texts you some bs excuse.
Women are using Snapchat and Tinder as a resource for endless free dinners, so if don't offer that and they still want to meet up you'll filter out most of the timewasters.
