Well, had you called her as normal grown-up people do when inviting somebody somewhere, you wouldn't have to wonder what the stupid text means or who sent it, would you?! For the record, I doubt she sent it.
I should think when you next see her at the park you frequent that her attitude having said that (or not) should give you some clue as to whether the message came from her. My guess would be it was likely her 6'5" 275 lb ex husband that used to be a nose tackle and just got out of prison on a technicality after the brutal torture and subsequent slaying of a man who texted his (then) wife.

Good point, how ridiculous that he texted her in the first place.
I actually work with a couple of people that have this type of personality. One guy that I thought was normal until you talk with him about women; then he goes wacko. Guy number two walks around with a scowl and you never know how he's going to react. When guy number one starts dating a new woman I feel like warning her. They both acted normal for the first 6 months on the job.
I have a feeling there's more than one person here that exhibits similar traits.
I decided to ask out this women I've chatted with and shared some laughs and dog appreciation at the dog park several times (having her email from a social group).
I ask her to a dog fundraiser event where you bring your dogs and compete in fun competitions like races and dress-ups. I say "thought you might like to hang out at this fun event, etc."
She responds in bold letters that she finds me repulsive and no way in hell would she ever hang out with me! [Um, OK, that would be a no...]
Now, I'm a good-looking, fit, albeit aging guy, who she's seen interacting pleasantly with people of all stripes (and their dogs). So why she would choose to respond in an ugly, hostile manner does not compute (she's probably just about 5 years younger). I take it as her having big issues (self-esteem or past-abuse from men, or drug or psychological problems, or who knows?).
Anyone else have any horror story "dating" encounters?
I'm sorry but this whole approach comes off as very awkward.
I probably wouldn't have used to term "repulsive" but you know...

What in the world is awkward? Has everybody lost any sense of what constitutes a normal interaction in real life?!
