You need to chill out about this. Imagine if she is under huge pressure at work and they are laying people off and she might lose her job or something?

Being confident enough to let her go if she isn't into that you and in the meantime having your own life and other options is the key IMO.

A "Like" on facebook obviously means she had time to read what people were saying, so why not take a few more simple/facebook/cyberspace seconds to clear things up with the OP?

Okay, I have not contacted her since November 10th.

I was thinking of contacting her next Sunday?

Why? There obviously isn't interest there. People who are interested are never too busy to make contact.

And also, I'd remove her from your FB. She's not your "friend", and you don't need to keep tabs on her that way.

I have the feeling that the initial rush of dating someone younger than herself (depending on which thread to believe, she's either 30 or 40) has only made her realize that the "boy" in "toy boy" has won out and turned her off.

Sorry to say, but it sounds like this thing is over and has been over for awhile.

When she said she needs space but it has nothing to do with you...that was quite clearly her attempt to let you down easy. It is hard to reject people.

If someone is interested in you, then they show it. If you are dating someone and you are crazy about them, you keep contacting them and moving in closer. You don't say you want space. She was just telling you that she isn't interested in dating you.

PLEASE don't try to contact her again. She will just just be a little irritated and wonder why you can't get the hint. I hope I don't sound rude, but you need to let this one go.

^^ Agreed.

Truth is this one is over and done. Time to move on.

Since when did "seeing someone" consist of 2 dates, 3 texts and a "like" on FB? Man, I have been working way too hard at relationships :-D

If you feel like texting the woman, then text her for the love of God...we are not in grade school, anymore.

However, if she does not respond, then please let it go and find a more responsive person to date.

I texted her the following:

"Hi [name]. I am sorry if I came across too eager upon first meeting you. If you can forgive me, i'd like to you see you again sometime. If you'd rather go our separate ways, I understand that, too.

Got a reply a minute later:

"Of course I'd like to see you again. Lets plan for something after Thanksgiving. I'd love to hear from you then."
