I don't get it. I approached these two women at a social event / fundraiser this weekend. My friend got them to go to a gay club with us to meet some of our friends. We actually had a blast.
The girl I was into was actually very shy and reserved upon meeting her, but I spent a bit of time talking to her and she opened up to me. She went from not talking as much and not dancing to dancing, playfully touching me (pushing me to do something, making jokes, etc and laughing more.
I walked her to her car but her friend wanted to go eat. She offered to drive us to the place to eat so I was OK. I spent time talking to her outside alone and we talked a bit and seemed to connect.
It got a bit weird about 30 min into eating because another guy invited her to go to this bar but he was extremely forward. She had no interest in him other than a friend. I kinda zoned out of the conversation and she briefly apologized for it all.
I texted her later that I had a great time and we should spend some time together going hiking. She said 'Sounds good. Goodnight'. I know she was very tired so I get that it was a bit short.
I texted her this afternoon about her trip today to New Orleans and told her that her mom and her should hit up Cafe Du Monde. She replies "Will do".
It is utterly confusing that I thought we made a connection or at least there was some level of interest to very brief messages. Some girls are naturally introverted and that's her. I've had some girls that showed me minimum interest that I didn't know were into me until the last minute. Her friend seemed to really like me but I think I made the right choice in going after the girl I was more attracted to.
Nothing is wrong with them but I guess I like gauging interest and it seems weird that she went from being more engaging conversation than to be very short with me.

Like I said, I don't see anything wrong with her texts. If you want to gauge her interest, why not just ask her out?

What are your thoughts on this guys?
This is the problem with texting.........cold at times, too brief, disconnect, LIT
One woman I am dating is like this at times so when we need clarity we talk on the phone or we text and I get extra emojis

Yeah - I don't understand why people attempt to have serious or long conversations through texting. You don't get inflection, mood, and just general feelings through texts.

I do with some women tend to exaggerate my emotions with emojis, exclamation marks, etc to be more expressive.
Texts can be flat and of course you can take them at your leisure. I didn't call her because texting is somewhat passive and I assume she was busy with whatever.

It's 2015 people don't phone haha. Actually I had an ex gf that got mad at me when I texted but didn't call her even though we used both lines extensively and I saw her quite often.
Nah I will call in a few days.

I get it. I am a very communicative person so I guess that is something I need in my personality and words help me gauge interest. I have to accept some people aren't all about it as much as I am and that's OK.
What I have found myself doing........and with her back to me.........is almost compensating for the cold, short texting with 3 !!! and 3 emojis it's gets silly and cute at the same time.
