writes: Hi, I met a girl on the internet and got on well on a 1st date on a Thursday. Lots in common, held hands, smiled a lot. I phoned her on the sunday, asked whether she wanted to go out on tuesday which she couldn't do. She then offered up friday but said admittedly not definite cause of work. I phoned her wednesday and thursday and she ignored my call and voicemail.I'm old enough to take rejection well enough but when she has suggested friday I have to assume she is interested. And I really did like this girl.Question - I will allow myself one more communication by text before I write this off. What do I write to give myself the maximum chance of getting her back interested. And when should I txt her?

I agree with aunty chrissie, no more contact. It's one thing to let one phone call go but if you had two and neither was returned then it is time to move on.
We've all been there and it is possible that she got busy or that she didn't fancy you as much as you liked her. Even if she felt a connection it could be that she got scared. I've learned that sometimes people don't know how to be happy or that they run when things get too real.
Don't be offended, it is not your issue, it is hers. So, you're cool, dust yourself off and find another.
Take care.

I think something very simple should suffice. You dont want to sound desperate or too eager, but at the same time you want her to know that you are still up for it. Something simple like "We still on for Friday?"
You are giving her the option to either ignore, reply and advise she cant do that night but could do another, or simply say Yes!

dont do anything just move on, its not the end of the world, if she wants to contact you then she will, if she doesnt contact you surely thats better to be a bit hurt now than a lot later. she may be shy or just doesnt want to tell you that you are not for her. aunty chrissie.
