Relationship Help

151 21 February 19, 2013 at 07:25 PM in Chat (2)
It has been a while since I've been in a relationship with someone, like four years. I met a girl online via online dating site and really thought I hit it off. She's attractive and has an interesting personality. I got her number last night and we've been communicating since then. Two questions:
I asked if she wanted to meet, response: "Maybe Smilie"
How am I supposed to take that? Good/bad?

Also, earlier when we first met, she mentioned she's not the best at asking questions (ain't that the truth). So, I've been asking her some questions and been getting one word answers in return. Is this good/bad/neutral?

I don't want to screw this relationship up. Advice please?

This makes soo much more sense now. Neither of you are experienced in dating.


Do you both go to the same college?
No, but 20 minutes away (campuses)

"Practicing" online. If something comes out of it, great. If not, it's still experience.

There is a big difference between high school dating and college dating.

Dude you got NO game. You need to really get out and practice on more than your texting pad.

The first time a girl puts your schlong in her mouth you'll know what I'm saying. Get out there...for the love of everything holy!

There's also a big difference between dating one person for two years and having experience dating.

I have some concerns after reading your posts and the other answers. First, this last text about her last boyfriend/fiance, This bit of conversation makes me wonder if she is the type of female who becomes possessive. Not sure I would want to date someone who calls other women sluts. Second if you two are only 20 min apart from each other at different colleges and she will not meet you in person that's a warning flag to me as well.

Lastly the fact you are asking for our advise tells me you already feel warning signs about this girl and are needing either confirmation or help making excuses to keep seeing/texting her. Always trust your gut when you feel something is OFF then there is.

I understand it is very hard when you are a shy person to meet people. Check into college activities that interest you, Clubs you can join, Talk to people in your classes to overcome the shyness. Hang in there when the right person comes along you realize it.

That is all I have for now, Thanks for listening to me

She's not that interested. I would not reply to someone I care with simple word "ya, oh, really..."

Two years and and douchenozzle cheats on me? I'd probably have some choice nicknames myself. I don't think that really indicates anything, except having been hurt by them.

Remember, he brought up the question about her past relationships.

Online dating is a good way to meet new people. It saves your time and energy. Just move on at this point, good luck in the future.
