    so i met a lovely girl on friday, we both got on well and agreed we should go on a date, texted her early yesterday, she still hasnt replied, how long should I wait to call her to see If I have the right number or see whats the craic if shes ignoring me or what. Do girls normally take ages texting back cos she seemed well up for it! And I don't wanna seem desperate If she still will text back.

    Phone her now, if youre not doing something.:) Life is too short to time these things according to rules noone understands anyway.

    I would call her tonight.... IMHO its bad manners she hasnt replied yet and implies that she MAY be playing games. If you call her and it goes to voicemail then leave her a message but dont call / text again....

    She's either not bothered, messing with your head a bit, or she didn't get your message or you didn't get hers. You should have expected a response by now otherwise.
    I'd probably send one more text asking if she got the other one and if she still wants to meet up. If she still didn't reply I'd forget about her.

    Just ring her now and get it over with, then youll know for sure.

    My instinct tells me you're not the only guy with her number.

    Ring her tonight; be friendly and chatty and don't mention the text.

    maybe she doesn't have credit, that's happened me before anyway

    Reasons why a girl would not text/ring you back

    1. You have the wrong number
    2. She's just not into you

    When you say "early yesterday" what time are we talking here? What did you say? Tbh I reckon just bite the bullet and phone her, then you will know either way.:)

    stop feeding the troll guys


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 202 ✭✭iwincosimcool


    rang her and shes didnt answer! couldent hear her voice message cos the reception was going mad and I was swearing at the phone, pretty sure it got recorded and I left a rubbish message telling her to ring me if shes still up for it!
    I think Im a loser this time:)/:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,145 ✭✭✭SarahSassy


    Sure look she will see the number and call you back if she wants to.... If she has not replied by the end of the week cut her loose...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 202 ✭✭iwincosimcool


    Will do! I know a few of her friends, and will probaly see her around at some stage so I'm suprised shes not letting me know what the craic is . Anyway I won't lose sleep over it!:)

    There are no rules. Anyone that says so is just being stupid. At least you made the right choice by ringing her. Are you sure she answered though, as you said the signal was bad.

    I met a nice girl on Saturday. I stayed in her's we were all over each other. I got her number. I texted her on Sunday and no response since.
    For some reason girls think the best way of dealing with a guy they lose interest in is to ignore the text ...Damn ignorant. NEXT.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 532 ✭✭✭Pub07


    I wouldn't have bothered ringing her after she never replied to the text tbh. If she didn't reply to the text it is plain as day she isn't interested. I don't know what other interpretation you could put on it.

    in fairness if you liked somebody and you had no credit you'd borrow a phone (to send a txt back) or move heaven and earth to get credit.
    not a credible excuse.
