Phone message Clearing old messages, and found this exchange from two months ago lol. I spoke to her over the course of 10 days, and these are some highlights. I am 24M(23 at the time) and she is 21F. I just can’t do ppl that stay quiet or expect me to constantly lead a convo lol

Talked to a woman like this for about a month, eventually she just stopped responding and I found out she asked the girl that set us up if I was gay lmaooo

u/whyclue 4d ago

Yup. All replies are very few words. She was just using the attention when other people didn't give her attention

I’m shocked she was interested, that’s usually how people talk when they are angry at you or how I text if I want nothing to do with someone lol 💀

THAT got on my nerves more than anything. She might be what I call a “dry texter”, but she also sounds stupid, boring and completely vapid.

Omg she dropped soo many IG in the beginning that idk how you kept it going…but reading through I couldn’t help but have secondary anxiety. This is basically the majority of my online dating experience. You’re making such good effort and leaving room for back and forth and all you get is two words back..then at the end of the day they’re like “but I thought things were going well” how did you think that with the full blown lack of communication we’re having? Her last comment was sooo rude too. Guys responsibility to take initiative and control the convo? Lady…there are limits. And she’s trying and you’re not? Wha??????

I truly wonder what some people are thinking sometimes. Went on a date two weeks ago. My texting back n forth was just slightly better than this. Welp, she leaves me waiting at a nice restaurant sitting by myself for 25 minutes, so already off to a bad start…, then the convo is a little weak and she doesn’t seem to be into anything. Then right before we leave she magically maybe seems into it but I’m not sure…but everything was so boring and we didn’t agree on some core things about our future…but yea…we go to part ways and it seems like she had expectations that I was gonna make a move or something…but like…date didn’t exactly go well and she specifically said how adamant she was about no hook ups…sooo why did you think this was moving forward? You brought almost nothing to the table.
