don't get me wrong i don't contact her at all or nothing and talk to other girls still. the only time i ever contacted this girl was before the first date to tell her where to meet and after saying i had a good time. then i just wait till the date happens etc. it's only been one date anyway, i guess after a few dates with me she will start making more time to see me. i don't expect her to be over my place or anything after the first few dates. this one feels like a keeper. beautiful sweet girl... but i won't keep this goin if she eventually doesn't make more time for us. btw, i am looking for a relationship with a nice girl, not just sex and those nice sweet down to earth girls are hard to find.
Yo Tony-Montana,
Yes, the fact that you want to be a "stand up guy" is good. There's NOTHING wrong with being with a nice, sweet, down to earth girl. And when it happens----it's great. But I'd advise you to pay close attention to what I said earlier about NOT crossing the line when you're pursuing a girl.
KNOW when you've reached the point where you're doing things to stay on this girls radar that compromise your self-respect. If you can manage to do this, you should be able to adequately "self-regulate" your maneuvers towards her.
ON THE SUBJECT OF BUSY WOMEN:
You say that this chick is just naturally really, REALLY "busy", and I believe you. But there'll come a point when you have to ask yourself:
Am "I" getting the kind of time, the quality of interactions with this girl that "I" want? You have to make sure that your wants and needs are being reciprocated by ANY woman that you get with. I know that you're not actually in a relationship with her at this point, but still. Even if you DID officially get with her, is this woman actually AVAILABLE to be in a relationship with you???
Never forget that in the end it doesn't really matter whether or not it's another "guy" taking up her time or her other legit priorities are taking up her time, if YOU are not getting the kind of time you want with a girl------YOU LOSE.
Make no mistake----you'll lose NOT becausse you're a "loser", FAR FROM IT. You'll lose because you would have knowingly signed up for LESS than you want from a relationship.
And one more thing, a lot of women (especially mid-twenties and younger) can "like you" one minute and "like someone else" the next. Many are flighty and flaky and see no duplicity in "changing their minds" about some guy at the drop of a hat-------and WITHOUT WARNING or EXPLANATION.
I'm not saying that this is what has happened, BUT-------I stand by my earlier assessment when I said that women who are REALLY interested in you WILL find the time to get with you. And they'll MAKE it happen with very little effort exerted on YOUR part.
Keep this girl in your peripheral vision and SOLDIER ON until she chooses to "un-busy" herself.
Soldier on.
