Um, so what if she wasn't expecting it? If anything, that's a good reason to send the text because it shows you were thinking of her when you were off doing something fun.


Why do you make this so difficult? This is really basic.

Why would you think that? Don't most people use their phones to conduct their life wherever they happen to be? Isn't that the point of a "mobile" phone?

Your thought processes are perverse and baffling.

Put it this way - I’ve got an online guy I have yet to meet who went on a month long work trip to Asia (he doesn’t have standard hours). He wants to meet when he comes back. I have gotten basically daily texts at least to say good morning - in my time zone.

If you can’t figure out how to send a “I had fun tonight” text and a subsequent “hope you have a great day, let me know your schedule so we can reconvene this week” text, no one will ever understand you are interested.

You said you contacted her at around MIDNIGHT (which isn’t really the evening) to set something up, which is not really an acceptable time to call in my book. The whole point of a mobile phone is that it is mobile and you can send a text wherever you are. As long as you are stuck on this text every 3 days and call at midnight philosophy, I don’t think it is going to work out very well for you. Unless it is a situation where you are literally out of town on the other side of the globe and don’t want to send an international text at 3am (which seems unlikely for a weekly text), then it seems silly.

Well the truth came out tonight after I discovered she was nothing but a liar and sent a text telling her about herself. This was her message

"i didnt call you after we met. I did not answer your call. I made excuses to not meet again. So why the hell would you think it's ok to send me a rude message?"


So looks like I was right all along but so many of you on here actually believe she was sick and had a sick grandmother. lol


So I can this thread can be closed now

And what did telling her about herself do?

Nothing but make you look like the butt hurt jerk that every woman thinks of when they talk about bad dating experiences ....two wrongs don't make a right.

The result would've been the same regardless. Moral of this story, if you feel like someone is a liar and a snake, STOP FOOLING WITH THEM. Having some sort of vendetta or sending petty childish texts is not how normal adults deal with these issues. I wonder about people sometimes......

Just want to tell you that you saw the BS all along and was right. The truth came out after 2 weeks because I forced it to come out tonight when I noticed she was in my area. lol

I know to do that now. That was my first time ever getting a sick text after a 1st date and now know what it means
