Is low self-esteem keeping her from dating?
Posted: 11/6/2007 8:19:36 PM
I send a gal on here a letter several months ago, no go. Several months later I heard from her. We started chatting at first for a couple of days, ALL DAY LONG. 2 days became 1 week, and I asked her, how long she has to talk to someone before she meets in person, She replied 1 month. On her profile this descent looking guy gave her a nice rap. So I thought I found a nice girl, till just today, I send her many letters and, no answer. So I looked at the sent mail function, and I noticed she is reading all of her mail, but no reply . I wrote her 1 more letter: I was interested to know what my next step should be? I wanted to know is she reading my mail and has lost interest, busy, or not lost interest. I thought she should have the decency to at least write back on one of the letters. So I wrote her and said ,
Please don't waste my time if I'm not your type:)
So all of a sudden, she gives me the cold sholder ,Sorry, but I'm not sure we are compatible she says. Plus she claims , Im not sure I'm your type either. She was apologizing, for that reason, and she said, I hope you don't feel I was waisting your time. She felt that's what sucks w/ this online crap. She found me to be an interesting person but could not tell me what my next step should be.
Her main reason for ignoring me was because, she usually ended up liking someone more then they like her. She also said she is thinking of deleting her profile and starting fresh at the beginning of the Year. And She didn't feel ready to date anyone right now.
My Question is : Is low self-esteem keeping her from dating?

Nope just sounds like typical female behavior to me. Move on and don't give her another thought she obviously thinks she has better offers to entertain.

Sometimes it's just a case of deciding that for the time being it's not worth the bother.

Tis a bit like work, that dating thing.

Doesn't matter what her reason is. She said she's not interested. Take it for what its worth and move on. No need to analyze it, especially if you're going to try to make it seem like its HER flaws that make her not want you. Actions speak louder than words. If someone doesn't respond to your messages, don't harass them. They're saying what they mean by not saying anything at all.

low self-esteem? nope, just sounds like she's not interested. don't waste your time worrying about why she acted that way - time to move on.

I don't think low self-esteem keeps anyone from dating. It's just another "just not that into you" moment... She's coming up with excuses to blow you off. I think that's all you need to know before you move on.

Thanks for the reply, Looks like she's window shopping. You are correct, she even wrote me and said don't put all of my eggs in 1 basket.

i had a few times where i emailed people and got to know them that way and then we met and there was no chemistry - so from now on - i do a couple emails and then try to meet - no use wasting anybody's time...unless you're starting it off as "email buddies" - which i have with folks in other towns, etc...

forget about her and move on - i'm sure you're worth it!

HI husschic, Thanks for the input, She's actually close to my house, and I never met in person. According to everyone here, sounds like she was not ready to meet anyone, any time soon. With work and all, I can understand. I think you are correct, if you meet someone in person, you can learn more, than just chatting on the computer. Thank you.
