Confused about girl

    Two days ago I was doing some temp work. When I arrived there was another girl who was also temping standing outside and neither of us could get in to the office. So we started to chat and eventually we got in and we ended up working together for the whole day. Neither of us had worked there together and we took breaks etc together. We were getting on really well and she was laughing at all my jokes etc and I thought that it was going really well. We even went for food afterwards because her bus was an hour away. Also about half way through the day she asked me for my number and I gave it to her and she gave me hers.

    She got a text from another guy afterwards and she said that she was sort of seeing him but they went on their first date a few days earlier and it had been a disaster as they weren't on the same wavelength and she was dreading him ringing her. So as we were so clearly on exactly the same wavelength I decided that I would ask her out. So just before we went our separate ways she said that we would see each other soon. I said well we probably won't be working again together because it was a once off and that maybe we could go on a date and that I promised that it wouldn't be as bad as her last date! She laughed again and said yeah that we should.

    So i sent her a text yesterday to say hi and nothing. No reply in 24 hours! I mean what the hell?! It's not a real big deal because I only just met her but I just don't understand it! I mean she asked me for my number! Is there a possibility she didn't get the text and should I send a second one? I highly doubt that and probably won't send another one. But if anyone can explain it to me I would be very grateful!!

    Its kind of hard to know whether or not she's interested in you or not from your description.

    Ring her and ask her. If she says yes - great, if she says no or dosent answer you know where you stand. You really don't have anything to lose.

    Don't send another text. The amount of times you hear of misinterpretions because of text is scary. It's a really poor way of communicating.

    Good luck mate!

    Ring her and say that you're thinking of doing something fun in the weekend and would she like to come?

    Probably the most unattractive thing you can do at this stage is look desperate by sending multiple texts or ringing her a few times.

    Wait a few days before attempting to contact her again.

    This will be difficult but it will prevent her from thinking you're an obsessive weirdo.

    oh my god, is there not a sticky that just specifically says 'stop texting and ring them!!' yet?

    Sorry but come on, ring the girl! texts are often not sent or not received. She could be in a place with bad coverage. She seemed to give you the green light so go ring the girl and invite her out. If she says no it's no real loss as you only just met her. If she says yes then wohoo good for you!!

    Ring her, ring her now before someone else does!

    Keep in mind that the phone networks seem to be a little overloaded at the minute, probably because of the mass amounts of Christmas/New Years texts bouncing around. It's possible the text never got through (or is/was delayed). One more reason to ring instead of text...

    I guess u should wait a few days, she could just have no credit. Everything you've said so far sounded like she is interested. You don't want to look desperate. I would do nothing, you've made your move, if she's interestedlet her come to you
