I met this girl at 8am in the train station. I just asked her possibility to be my new neighbour as a girl who looks like her just moved in. Obviously it wasn't her. She is a comp. engineer so I teased her being an antisocial nerd. Meanwhile she wanted to get in the train but when she told me where she was going, I told her to wait with me as my train stops in her station. She was like "But I will be late to work" and I was like "Irrelevant it makes only 5 min difference. If you are gonna be late tell them that an idiot kidnapped you at the train station" lol... Then we got into the train at some point she didn't trust me again and I was like" You are done. I am gonna go and talk with this cutie (pointing a hot girl sitting two lines in front of me)" and at this point she hold me from my arm in order to stop me going (it was all playful but I wasn't expected her to hold me from my arm) Anyway at the end I got her number. On that day I was busy so I texted her the next day;

Me: Hey its hkmt. LEts see how good your memory is...
Her: Actually my memory is better than you think (30 min later)
Her: it seems like you lost interest very fast (30 min later. I was in the gym so couldnt reply for a bit
Me: Haha I was paying my whole attention to the equipments in the gym lol...
Me: YOu should learn how to keep my interest in you :)
Her: Xxx gym (she wrote my gym's name. I don't remember mentioning it though so I thought she saw me in the gym)
Me: Really?? How come I didn't see you?
Her: You didn't see me because I didn't go there (I didn't wanna ask how do you know my gym, maybe I told her, don't remember...)
Me: In fact there was a girl who looks similar to you but she seems a bit innocent comparing to you :)
Her: Lol what was that supposed to mean

I was out partying so the next day;

Me: Means I def. didn't see you :) did you have a fun eve?

No response. She seems to be interested in though. Don't really understand why she didn't respond. Critiques? How can I reengage her?

@hkmt:
This one is a comp. engineer and i made great fun with that calling her nerd etc. so today

Me: i need you more than ever right now!!
Me: my laptop is broken (2 min after)

I think rhis text was quite good. I feel second text makes it funny and playful. I thought about the things buddha told me yesterday, focused on the interaction and texted accordingly. No response so far we will see whats gonna happen..

Her: :) sorry for the late reply but Im in Barcelona
Her: Whats wrong with your laptop?

havent replied yet. I am planning to text "don't know you need to check it. Be careful it might require high math knowledge to fix it lol.." Basically she told me that she is shit in maths so it could be a funny/playful text. How should I lead it from here, Thoughts??

@hkmt:

yh, it's cause you didn't frame the joke well enough. Like if you said

"dammit, just spilled coffee over my laptop. Come over here and fix it computer wiz!!" she wouldn't take you so srsly

and with that porn line, sometimes it's better to fuck around a bit more and be risque.

"I can't watch anything now, especially my dwarf midget porn!" sure she'll think that's 'fucked up' but it's funnier than what you said lol

The last text didn't require a response, you've done well so far, it's time to go for the meetup and not say anything stupid that will kill it.

@Gogo:
What annoys me is when you start a frame and the doesnt get involved into it. Like after my last text she could have said anything; i cook well, i am lame cant do anything... whatever and we can carry on the interaction and create new frames. However she didnt respond and fuck the interaction. I guess she is still in barcelona. I will probably carry on by are you back with a bit of nice tan?? I am doing alright i guess (havent fuck it up yet). We will see how it goes


Gogo i have sent you a pm

@hkmt:

nawww i get what you mean about the lack of involvement and shit. It's just that you need to stop assuming that they'll latch onto whatever half assed thing u say over text, cause you usually have to bait them into replying with a clever 'trap' lmao.

Asking her if she's good at anything else leaves her too vulnerable. Be empathic enough to realize that she'll feel consciously too weak if she answered that and qualified herself to you. It's like a job interview where you feel too pressured to answer that kind of question and decide to avoid it.

You've got to half compliment them and not have such a negative vibe to a text like that, i.e. "Are you a woman of many talents?", the key word here is 'talent', it highlights her self worth, you're not obviously putting her down like in your original text.

Re: Bulgarian cutie from train station...
@Gogo: youre pushing buyer / seller frame too hard. Like you may think its a joke but shes taking you serious. Also youre not taking her into account when youre texting. Gogo touched on this. Youre just vomiting shit out without any real direction or purpose. Be mindful of how self conscious these girls are. Like shes saying stuff how shes unsure whether youre interested. Dont kick a dog while its down, or in this case showing vulnerability. Thats like a girl approaching you, telling you youre hot and then you proceed to ask her if her hairs real. I gave you advice before on just being chill without bantering until you got a feel for this in english, since its your second language. Actually, not just i but a good chunk of the regulars gave you essentially the same advice. Take our advice dude. Anyway ill say it again: Try just having a conversation without too many over the top texts. Just get a feel for texts so you can learn how to inject humor in English.

@Aequitas:
Thanks for the advice. I think my humour is not really understood because of the language bareer. I will try more normal convos but how can i initiate a normal convo? I gotto say hey whats up? kinda thing which ischode and boring.

Ive burned over 100 girls because of this texting. Have never been frustrated that much in my life. Never!!!
