canceled date but still wanted to keep my number


Recommended Posts

Hi there. I've recently been chatting to a girl on a well respected dating sight. She took a shine to my profile and gave me her number (twice!). She said she would like to get to know me more as I shared some of her interests. I immediately texted and managed to actually speak to her. I suggested we met up for coffee and she agreed. She did say she was busy that weekend and that the following weekend would be ok. So the following week I texted her to find out a good meeting place and time. I heard nothing until the Friday lunchtime.

 

She texted to say she had met someone BUT wanted to keep my number. We have kept in touch since but she's now saying meeting up wouldn't be a good idea. So why would she still be wanting to keep my number? I'm confused not least upset over this. Do you think I could be a reserve?

 

Any responses would be well received

 

Thanks

Is that not completely obvious?

 

She's shopping and wants to keep you on the back burner while she checks out her first choice... she's not even being discreet about it.

 

You're not going to go for that are you? Block her profile and block her phone number. Keep your self respect.

Because most people don't go around deleting numbers from their phone unless they specifically have a reason to?

 

I'm in a committed relationship, but look through my phone and you'll find numbers for pretty much every guy I've dated in the last few years, along with the numbers for my friends, family, businesses I frequent, co-workers, doctors surgeries, dentists, etc.

 

The only time I've deleted numbers has been when it's been a relationship that ended badly, and I wanted to cut contact. Not going out on a date with a stranger because either one of us has found a better offer sooner wouldn't incite me to go to the trouble of finding their number in my phone and deleting it, not when most modern phones have almost unlimited storage for something as small as a contact.

 

You haven't even ever met and you're upset about this... what!? At least she had the decency to explain why she didn't want to meet any longer. I've had that from guys before when online dating and it's always nice to hear so you know where you stand, no hard feelings.

 

It doesn't mean anything, she's probably just passing time if she is still contacting you.
