awkward first date
awkward first date
alrite well i went with this girl I like to the fair and it was good at first we went on the bungie jump thing etc. but it went kinda south from there.... i am deaf in my left ear right now for some reason (I told her this) and I couldnt understand half the things she said because of all the noise around and had to kind of laugh and "ya" my way through conversations. There also wasnt shit to do for a long time but I guess we made due it got a little better later on when all the people we knew were out and about. But ya I ended up being really out of it the whole time because it is ridiculously hard to understand things when you can only hear from one ear. Even worse was misunderstanding things and lookin like a retard lol. I did have a good time and I think she did too tho but it still was kind of awkward. Afterwards she texted me and said something along the lines of "I had a good time thanks for coming." and also an inside joke about the fair. I replied and said I had a lot of fun and apologized if I didnt seem like it cuz I was really out of it. Now by the time I had gottan this message I was pretty faded (went to friends house after to smoke) and at the end I said "PS- we need to hang out again because I owe you like 5 bucks" (I borrowed 3 bucks from her for the bungie jump thing cuz it was a lot more than I expected).... i dont think that was a good idea but oh well I havent talked to her today.
What should my next move be?
Your next move is nothing. You sent the message that you want to see her again and that's all that is needed.
Yep you made the initiative now just sit back. How long had you known her before you guys went out?? Blind dates can be really awkward so it's ok to feel uneasy.
When in doubt.....Whip it out.

dude, you're doing fine. whether she's interested in you or not is her problem. just don't suddenly cut contact with her if you're still interested.
just don't suddenly cut contact with her if you're still interested. what do you mean by that?
what do you mean by that? it's just a personal reflection of how i think. sometimes, i think waaay too much, and make a big deal out of nothing. so if i think the date didn't go so well, and keep my thoughts on that negative stuff, i'll almost convice myself that oh i screwed things up and i shouldn't bother.
for example, recently, i got this girl's number, and i kept telling myself that maybe she really wasn't interested. it took a friend to knock some sense into me by considering her point of view... if i didn't call, she automatically assume that I was the one not interested. then nothing happens if you just give up on someone who you're interested in, and you are only guessing her interest level in you.
cliffs:
- just keep going for it until you know 100% that she's not interested. never assume that she isn't interested in you until she tells you herself.

ya I get what you mean but i was the last one to text so i guess I should just wait it out for now! there aren't any "rules" saying you have to take turns... if you want to contact her, go ahead. nothing ever came to anyone who just waited... just saying.
