Bad Date...Help!! Advice!!?

I was a very late bloomer--kinda shy and not very experienced. I am particular with who I date. Anyway... a woman asked me out through my yahoo personals profile, and I agreed to go out. I kinda froze on our fist date--likely did some big dating "NO NO's", but she was AWESOME, showed a lot of enthusiastic interest in me and didn't seem to care much that I perhaps made somewhat of an A** of myself. So...she was busy with work the next few days, and we didn't get to talk but did send some emails back and forth, and I figured we'd definitely go out again, and I could be a much, MUCH better second date! But she would not give me a second date; as after about 4, 5 days, she wouldn't return my emails or phone calls. (I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH SPACE TO GIVE ALL THE FACTS HERE.) I think the reason she MAY have not given me the second date was due to my not so good "showing" on our first date. I'm really mad at myself! I think I let someone great slip through my fingers!

Bad Date...Help!! Advice!!?
I don't think she should have written you off just because


the first date didn't go so smooth when me %26amp;%26amp; my b/f


started out OMG I'm sUPER shy....but I warned him


%26amp;%26amp; he was still up for a second one %26amp;%26amp; it's been great ever since so a good oen may have slipped through your fingers


but there are lots out there!!%26amp;%26amp; if she's willing to dismiss


you that quickly for a small thing like that would you


really want to be with her?! good luck!! =] keep your chin up
Reply:ooh.. well. not to jump to conclusions here, but like you said, she's really busy at work, maybe she can't find the time to reply to your messages. and like you said, you were sending emails after the date, and i guess that's a good sign. but, maybe you shouldn't try to be SO persistent with calling her, hoping for a second date, it might throw her off (since the 1st one didn't go quite as well in your opinion). wait for her to call you back, or to respond to your emails again, hopefully soon, but right now, think about what you can do IF you do land a 2nd date, so wouldn't worry this much.





good luck! : D
Reply:Ah, I'm sorry for you. But don't be too harsh on yourself. First dates can be awkward and nerve-wracking and plain embarrassing. But you can draw something from this date and prepare yourself better for the next time.


Perhaps you need to give this woman a bit of space, if you've been e-mailing and ringing her a lot she might perceive it as you being pushy which could put her off. Leave it for a while, if she gets back in touch that's great, if she doesn't then you've got to dust yourself off and on to the next one! Just go easy on yourself and don't be mad with yourself. I hope that everything works out for you :-)
Reply:alright well. i would write an email saying how you were really nervous, but that you would love another date because you think shes awesome. and just let her know how your feeling. if she still doesnt respond, move on! shes probably not worth it!
Reply:Tell her the truth...and if she really does like you she will give you another chance....
Reply:They do say first impressions count!!!!, maybe she seen you as too much like hard work. If possible try to contact her and explain that you were extremely nervous and not very experienced in the dating game. She must have liked something about you if she asked you out in the first place.
Reply:Have you emailed her to tell her how you feel and that you know you messed up? Being upfront would probably help. I've also done Yahoo personals though and I know that it's easy to meet many people, and it could very well be that she just met someone else that she liked better. If that's the case, then move on...there are plenty of other fish in the sea.
Reply:drown ur sorrows with the drink laddy..
Reply:Well if she doesnt like u for who u r then walk away and keep moving foward. there's pretty much nothing u could do but if u consider LIES a way to get her then go ahead its ur life anyway but really bad way to start a relationship. another thing maybe she was just playing with u and not looking for a relationship..... srry dude!! oh and srry for the spelling errors
Reply:Do you know where she works? If so send her flowers. (something friendly and not over the to. NO ROSES) and have the card read "sorry about being an @ss, please reconcider" or something along those lines. Or you could send her a nice email expalining why you acted the way that you did. Maybe she just wasn't into you. And maybe you are right.... good luck
