Ok, just a little annoyed because the last while I’m back in the single scene and was glad to be gone from it while it lasted. I think Irish girls/women can be tough cookie’s to crack so have not been making too much of an effort the last while because it can be too dis-heartening. So I go out every weekend, go to gigs and…

I genuinely do that to give my number, i never thought of it in the fake number kind of way

Ha, sorry... I havent much faith in male's at the moment

Or I'm just far too suspicious for my own good

Maybe she had a boyfriend and enjoyed the conversation and didnt care to mention it!?

~Isn't it tragic how text messages have overwritten traditional means in getting romantically acquainted. Scary! I wish I lived 50 years ago would hae been hell of a lot simpler

Why dont you post up a pic and am sure someone will ask you out - You are in the ladies lounge after all..

Haven't read the whole thread, but isn't this just the same as if a guy takes a girls number and then doesn't contact her. It happens all the time! Not nice, but you have to take the rough with the smooth in the world of dating!!

I'm confused about something. What the hell is "too keen?" Why does this bother Irish women? You like guys that aren't that interested in you? Eh?

Use the phone and call her. If I didn't respond to your text and I didn't get a phone call, I'd assume you weren't that interested. And no more self depricating remarks. They are nauseating to women.

ringing the next day is cool - "too keen" is always ringing next after meeting up!
If twas me would call too but I think its setting yourself up for a let down- might clear the head though anyway general consenus seems nah - so I d go with them.

Homerun your very handsome - so I dont think you should worry about it at all.

'Too keen' is a step away from desperate... which is never attractive. It's not really a conscious thing, for me anyway - have you never picked up on someone's neediness and been a bit turned off? I think it's just an instinctive thing.
