Of course you can...but to have to be unattached to the outcome of course...your average guy never does this because he's afraid of losing the bitch.

This is why indifference is so key. There's lots of insights in your post.

They play a lot of games, some of them are very subtle and you might consciously miss them. But it doesn't matter because you don't care.

Oh was I supposed to be jealous there? My bad didn't even notice lol, lost in my own thoughts.

Flow - I can see how you could interpret that, but don't worry. I'm not eager for it. It was much more of a curiosity thing. She didn't end up contacting me, btw.
Reach out to who? What girl are you talking about again?
Thats probably the biggest thing I realized from this. I felt immediately more comfortable/happy as soon as I started being honest with myself and doing what I wanted to do/not doing what I didn't want to do. I felt better walking back from the bar on my own than I did the rest of the night. ("A real pimp is his own best company" Iceberg. - Thanks Morph)

Well, that was fast. Got a text from her today about friday night:

"Sorry I ran out Friday night! Just had to get away. Thanks for coming out to celebrate my bday!"

Not sure if she left before or after I did. My understanding was that she went to the bathroom, but I didn't see her after that, so maybe she snuck out. She is doing one of 2 things here:

1) She actually did leave when I thought she was just in the bathroom, and her text is honest.

2) She didn't leave, and when she came back I was gone, but she's trying to play it as if she left before me, since I have no way to know whether she did or not. This would of course make it appear that I was in a sympier position of waiting around for her to come back when she had left.

Either way, doesn't matter. Not responding to her.

You should trust the force on this one

Your initial impression is the right one

Good.

In my view her text does not warrant a reply, it is a statement.

Yeah I'm kind of curious too

Hey guys,
I've been away from the forum for a couple weeks doing quite a bit of inner work, but I can give an update. Its kinda interesting too.

Basically, she texted again later that week, just another inane text with a simple statement in it. Don't remember exactly what she said, but I didn't feel a need to respond.

So, after I didn't respond twice, she went back home to the east coast for the holidays, and she just kind of faded into the background. I didn't contact her at all, and then on christmas I came down with the mega-flu and was sick for two weeks, lost a bunch of weight, etc, and basically had forgotten about her except for seeing an occasional facebook post/photo of her's pop up in my news feed, and I saw her at a big party, said hi, but nothing else.

Then, about a week ago, one of my best buddies tells me he's been facebook chatting with her for a few days, and he wanted to know if it would be alright to ask her on a date. He's a nice guy, but a bit too much of a pursuer. He already knew where I was at with her (we talk to each other about our dating lives several times a week since we see each other every day), and that I wasn't going to seek any interaction with her unless she contacted me and asked me out on a date.

So he goes on a date with her, and then invites her over to his house to cook dinner/watch a movie a couple days later, but he said he felt like on neither occasion was she really that into it, and they didn't kiss or anything. He just left on a business trip for a couple weeks, and before he left he told me that he felt like there was very little chance of it going anywhere and he had pretty much given up on it.

Now here's the funny part, that same day that my buddy told me that his dates with her had fizzled, I see on facebook that she went in and liked the past 4 or 5 photos that I posted. Coincidence? Me thinks not. In return, I liked one link she posted (that I did actually real-life like).

So, we'll see what happens. My feelings about this are that I really don't care, but I'll return serve if she throws something my way. If it gets to the point of us conversing then I always have the trump card on her that she needs to do something to make it up to me for "running out" on her birthday...

Meh. Haven't been.

I've just been working on myself pretty much non-stop since just before christmas. I've been going pretty deep on the inner stuff, uprooting some very very deep-seated behavior patterns and fundamental beliefs. Ones that I've carried with me since I was very young, and are pervasive and affect every aspect of my life, not just interacting with women.

I'm starting to get the inkling of the light at the end of this tunnel though, so who knows whats coming up next.

Oh man, I just saw Roak's new signature, and it hit home so hard to what I've been feeling the past month +
