We're both college age. I met this girl last semester, very cute and sweet, but never saw her around that much. We inadvertently had lunch a few times together after running into each other at the dining halls though, and I got to know her a little. There was definitely an attraction, but she had a boyfriend.
This semester, we both ended up going on a club's retreat, and I found out she mutually broke up with her boyfriend around 2-3 weeks ago.
We hit it off again right away and by the end of the night I made a move on her, and we made out a little bit but nothing more than that, we were both pretty tired.
She grabbed my hands though, making it clear that the attention was wanted, and we slept and cuddled next to each other.
Now this is where I don't know what's going on.
The few texting convos we had after the trip she would respond like 6 hours after I messaged.
I texted her to ask her if she wanted to get some dinner a few days after the trip, and she hasn't answered at all a few days later.
This girl is clearly pretty into me, she spent the whole night at the party talking to me, kissed me, ignored other guys, but now it's been complete radio silence.
What gives? I've never had this happen, where I get to know someone, kiss them, and then they don't talk to you.
Might she be reluctant to date me so soon after a long term relationship?
What the hell is it with girls seeming so candid and normal in person, but acting this way when it comes to outside communication?
What should my next move be? Should I text her something witty in a few days? Should I assume it was her recent breakup and wait longer?
She told me that her and her ex were still great friends, but she didn't know what would happen if one of them started dating someone else.
This makes it like she was open to dating someone else, but at the same time, she ignored my date request.
By the way, none of these are valid reasons, I know for a fact:
- she was looking for a one-night thing. definitely not, it's not like I just met her, and we didn't do much. Plus she's very smart and doesn't seem like that type of girl.
- I'm a bad kisser. No, I'm fine at kissing, this is hopefully not something that someone would mention, there's a deeper cause.
