    to try and cut a long story short

    met this girl at a sports outing last sept . got on really well with her and was going to ask her out but didnt get the opportunity that night. managed to get her email address from a mutual friend who works with her and sent her an email a few days later but got an out of office saying she was on 2 weeks hols. never got a reply. she could have forgotten who i was when she got the email

    was out with friend a few weeks ago and was on about the girl. told her was mad to ask her out etc .

    a few days later he told the lady ( i told him to ) that i was mad asking for her and she said she was looking forward to meeting me again, she said i was a lovely fella and very nice.

    anyway due to meet her at another sports outing this weekend. my friend has found out she is single. i am mad to ask her out. would i be as well off to see how the day goes, suggest i send her an email and ask her out through the email or mention going for a drink sometime to in person

    If you don't get a chance to ask her out in person or if it doesnt seem right (or you bottle it) Ask for her surname and throw her a friend request on Facebook - THEN ask her :D

    well i got to meet the lady again over the weekend. got on very well for the few hours we spent in each other company. sent her an email sunday just thanking her for the time which i know she got and i didnt get a reply

    slightly annoyed she didnt reply even if it was a quick reply

    Ya - I have to say, not replying at all is plain rude in my book. Cant understand how people think that is acceptable behaviour.

    Personally in that position i would always give a very neutral reply after a small period of time has passed so as it is clear i am not interested. But i would always give some reply.

    And ya - some people may say that by not replying is just a form of communication whereby they are saying they are not interested - which it is of course.
    Quite a rude way of communicating it in my book though.

    Assuming she has read it then unfortunately she isn't interested it seems.

    Personally (This might in itself sound "rude") I would'nt have thanked her for her time...I'm not suggesting that you are but it sounds a bit....desperate?!

    No more sports events coming up?

    Dont rule out the possibility that she may not have checked her e-mails yet. Or perhaps she's waiting till she has the time to write you a decent reply rather than just typing the first thing that comes into her head

    I would go along with this.

    You were probably just better off asking her out in the email.
    Because saying you had a nice time with her is basically you telling her you fancy her anyway - in which case you probably should have done it properly and asked her out.
