I met this girl online and we have been texting back and forth for a couple months. It is going well we seem to have some things in common the problem is that texting is all we have done. I have asked her to meet but she works two jobs and says she is to busy. I like her and would like to see where it goes but I am tired of just texting and not seeing her and I am not sure I can continue to do this. What should I do?

She should make time to meet you.Otherwise you need to venture to a person that will.

Sounds like you already have your answer from her - she doesn't have the time to take your connection to the next level.

If you're interested in more, you'll need to find someone else. If you are content with the level of your current acquaintance, then by all means keep it up. You can never have too many good friends.

People's actions speak louder than words. If she felt it was important to her to meet up with you, or that she really had a desire to, she would find the time. Instead, she is giving you excuses why she cannot.

Move on.

Probably too busy looking for someone IRL.

^^This.

OP, you said you've been texting for months. Have there been any phone calls at least? I can only speak for myself, but when I don't commit to something or someone and use the "I'm busy" line, it means I have no real interest.

I would only text message with someone local for maybe a week max.
Assuming they are local, if it's any longer than that, then they are not that into you, or have something to hide.

If you are doing long-distance, then you are just making your life difficult and asking for trouble (like this).

She is lying, and is probably married.

It's not about "having" time. It's about making time. If someone wants to be with you, then they'll never be too busy.

Sorry, I feel strongly about this. My last ex was a lying [female dog] who always had excuses as to why she couldn't do anything with me.
