hakim Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I thought I would use a different approach this time round on this girl on this dating website I'm frequenting... Instead of beating round the bush about my intentions I pretty much said "I just had to message you ... I find you absolutely stunning" - which, to me at least, she is... She replies with this "Hehe thankyou im at (insert University town) uni and well I can't say I really draw/sketch at all :P" Is this a good response? Link to post Share on other sites
jen1447 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Sounds neutral/ambivalent to me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Author hakim Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 Sounds neutral/ambivalent to me. How can something be neutral and ambivalent? Link to post Share on other sites
jen1447 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 ? Not sure what you mean. It sounds like she didn't really meet your level of intensity in her response, just made some random comment about sketches instead. If she was happy you said that, she'd have reciprocated somehow. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
veggirl Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Do you talk about sketching/art in your profile? if so I think that was her way to start convo. She sounds young and that sounds like a typical response from a college girl? I'd write back and make it a bit longer this time. Lets be real if she isn't interested in your profile at ALL she wouldn't respond at ALL. So go with it. Link to post Share on other sites
Satu Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 It was a totally vapid response. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It wasn't "random". I should have included in the original post that I had asked her about her course at Uni. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Ahhhh, well that's different, otherwise i would have said it was an accidental misdirected reply .... i have done that before,,, NOT GOOD hehehehe Link to post Share on other sites
ExpatInItaly Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 It seems fairly neutral. Try to keep the conversation going and see what happens Link to post Share on other sites
PegNosePete Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Why are you asking us? Why don't you ask her something else instead? Like what's your number? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

She replies with this "Hehe thankyou im at (insert University town) uni and well I can't say I really draw/sketch at all :P" Is this a good response? It sounds only marginally better than no reply at all. She's probably used to people telling her she's beautiful. Link to post Share on other sites

You sound like you're bargaining for it to be a positive. Just giving you my honest take, hakim - it sounds like a non-starter. Link to post Share on other sites
