Hi folks,

 

I met a lovely young Canadian lady last week - after reading many a tip from folks on here I approached her, made her laugh, had a little chat and then got her number. We went out for a drink last night and it went really well.

 

I know it went really well because she sent me a text afterward that said "Hey Sib, it went really well, he's such a lovely guy. Can't wait to see him again. Speak later. xx"

 

Now, this text appears to be meant for someone else... my name sure isn't Sib. Do you think this was a genuine mistake or do you think she sent this accidently on purpose?

I think it was a mistake. A good mistake to make for you though! It sounds like she likes you

[jzwhat21]

I would say it was accidently on purpose just cause the odds of her sending a text about you by mistake to you instead of someone else are slim to none but who cares!!! she digs you and thats whats important man keep it up!

I think it was a mistake, but at least it takes the first-date-insecurity away and you can be sure of another great second date! Congrats!

Thanks guys!

 

I take it I shouldn't respond to it? Maybe I'll tease her about it on the next date??

[Ant1975]

Dont mention anything otherwise it could be embarrassing for her as it could have been a genuine mistake. All you need to know is that she likes you so arrange another date.

Hey Zombiain, does this mean you're getting over your relationship with ex at work? Any distraction would be great, wouldn't it?

[Batya33]

I would avoid texting at all - she is basically a stranger and texting is too casual at this stage. If you want to see her again call her up and ask her out on a proper date you plan in advance.

I'm doing a lot better in regard to getting over my ex thanks for asking. I do still love her and against my better judgement do still want to be with her but that's out of my hands. The ex still relentlessly contacts me despite me telling her that I can't be her friend only her partner. Very odd.

 

So yeah, I'm trying out dating and see where it goes.

haha... I would love to have received a text like that after a date if I wasn't sure on how she felt...

 

Hopefully this gives you confidence to keep moving things along...

[Day_Walker]

probably a mistake, i wouldnt focus on it too much.

One thing is for sure, I will rib her about this one day if it goes anywhere. As far as the 2nd date goes, I made sure I arranged it at the end of the last date.

I also believe it was a mistake..the text sounded like she was telling a good friend ,probably named Sib, that the date with YOU went really well.

 

Think of it this way, she was obviously thinking of you as she sent it to YOUR number by mistake

[Dating Coach]

If it was a mistake I am sure she is aware that she made it. Don't bring it up at this time, as she's likely pretty embarrassed. Keep things calm, cool, and collected. And congrats on stepping up your confidence and asking out a girl you're interested in! Well done!

Thanks Dogg,

 

I 've read a lot of your tips on dating and it made a lot of sense to me and I'm trying to apply it where I can. Although I've never allowed myself to be walked over in a relationship I can see room for improvement in not being too much of a nice guy.

 

We'll see how this one goes!
