We match on Tinder. She looks like a model, has a pic of her dancing tango, one singing in a choir, one hiking and a random high heel pic. Her profile states she is looking for a tall tango partner ( she is 179 cm ), or a guy who sings or someone that can improve her life in any other way. She also says she doesn't like chatting and prefers to meet.
My profile on the other hand has a pic of me hiking as well, a pic in some ancient ruins from a trip to north africa, a pic of me dancing, and one playing theatre. I state I am theoretical cosmologist, acting, dancing, with a height of 183cm ( which is exact, my id says 185cm, but is with shoes so don't know if I should change it ).
My first message, because I didn't want her as a dance or singing partner was: " Assuming you will contribute to my life improvement, I’m not opposed to assisting with yours
" Then she says: " niiiiceee) i would research further in this direction ". I respond: " Great, let me know how your free time looks for a drink, I also prefer researching in person
". She says: : " wednesday morning for a coffee? ".
At that point I propose 10 am, she says 9:30 works better and tells me it's better for her to be not far from a certain area. I tell her it's even better like that, let's go to a specific place. She asks me which one ( my description was not clear ), I tell her and she responds she doesn't like it and let's do something else. I say: " Lol, if you know something really good, I’m up for suggestions
". She tells me one, I check it and respond: " Ok, it looks cute, we can do that " ," Where around will you be? ". She answers she doesn't get the question, so I say later at night: " Before the coffee, to see where it’s convenient to meet ". She doesn't respond for a day, and the night before the date I text: " Let’s meet up at 9.30 in ( coffee place's name ), whoever goes first grabs a seat
", to which she answers: " okay, see you there
".
The morning of the date my train is a bit late so I am getting late for about 10 minutes. I see a message on tinder telling me: " in case we don't find each other, here is my telegram ". I text her on telegram saying hi and my name and she responds: " Give me 5 min, coming ". I tell her not to worry and I am also late. I arrive first and pick a seat upstairs sending her a message about it. After few minutes I realise I don't have good connection, and the message was never sent. I use the wifi of the place and see two missed calls, my message is send eventually and she says: : " Im inside on the ground floor ", " Well, you could tell you couldn't come before 10, I don't understand this attitude ". I say : " Ok I’m coming down ".
I arrive downstairs and find her seating at a couch with a table in front of her, a second couch seat next to her and another seat opposite to her. I greet her, she tells she would have left if the coffe weren't good and I tell her I was up for a while but no internet so the message didn't come. Then I go to sit next to her. She tells me she prefers me to sit opposite, I then ask why and she answers she doesn't like turning her head around and prefers face to face. I tell her ok, let me try a bit of your coffee. She asks me why and says this is not normal, so I tell her I want to check whether it's better than the one I will take. I go sit opposite to her and then she gives some of the remaining coffee she had.
We start talking and first thing she asks if I had breakfast and I tell her yes I am fine. Then she asks about me, that I am playing guitar and what I am doing. She asks if my theoretical cosmologist is a lie or truth, I say it would be a very far fetched lie. She says if I would be interested in tango, and I say I'd love to, but right now I do too many dances and other stuff that it would be difficult to find time. She asks me what is my dream with what I have done, I tell her I have been studying a particular thing for a while and I now I want to change and explore more, and we'll see how it goes. I ask her about her dreams and she says she has none and she is lazy. I joke about it and say it was the worst choice ever to come here but she doesn't feel moved. Then I tell her there is no way she has no dreams, and she tells me she had once but gave up on them, because they were too difficult.
Then I start telling her how everything is possible, you first have to put the effort and then life will bring you what you want. She says she was into different things like design, but then she tried working and she was putting too much effort for too little rewards, so she is now lazy and wants to do nothing. But I tell her that she has passions singing, dancing, so she is an active person with interests that she could even pursue further. She tells me dancing amateur is different than going to teach and she wants to keep that as a hobby. She asks me my philosophy of life and I tell her first you find what your heart tells, what you are drawn towards and you pursue it, that everyone was telling me not to do what I wanted in school but I still went for it. And I tell her I can see she really believes in herself and is very in touch with her world and what she wants.
She tells me then that I can read her really well, and that she is a narcissist, and asks me if I am too. I tell her yeah, and before I can finish she talks about my acting and asks if I am in any group. I tell her about my group here and our performances and her what else she is into. She tells me she does photoshoots and models, and she enjoys presenting herself and getting approval and validation. I tell her I understand and the feeling of applause is very good. She says she doesn't care about that so much, but more about people writing and telling good things about her. Then I said that this world and acting are maybe a bit different but really not far, and tell her about a model I was talking once than when I asked why she was putting herself out there, she told me she enjoys people admiring her and her body, and the acting is similar to that. I like being in the moment deeply living and exploring the role and then the audience will get what they need to get, and she agreed.
I ask her how she likes connecting with people, and she says she enjoys working together to create and build something. So I tell her she is goal oriented and ambitious and I like that, and I tell her I can see it because although she looks calm in this environment she radiates an internal active energy that is ready to go out there and do stuff. To this she responds it is just because she is hungry, and I just say something along the lines of " yeah sure this can also work", with a slight laugh.
Then I ask her how she likes men, and she tells me she likes men that can teach her something, that are masculine, stronger and better than her. To this I tell her: " Thank you for the compliment "
Moments later she tells me she really has to go. I tell her I also need to be going as I want to visit the bank. She starts packing her things so I ask her if she has to run, and she says yes. She stands up, I stand up too, and she tells me we may meet again some other time, we give a slight kiss on the cheek, I tell her to enjoy and sit down to finish my tea for few minutes before leaving myself.
Now, first of all, I don't believe she wants to see me again. I would like a recommendation though on whether to text her or not, I guess I can, I don't expect much, but I wonder if there is something I could do to salvage anything. She was quite beautiful, face wise and body wise, the kind of girl that is very close to my personal favourite type. And the funny thing is that apart from that I did like her personality. She had a very dismissive attitude of yeah I am a narcissist or I am lazy, I don't like doing stuff, but she clearly is a very good classical singer, a passionate tango dancer and she is modelling , so although she was trying to be like I do nothing, I have no dreams etc, I could feel a woman that believes in herself a lot, knows what she deserves and is living her life. And honestly when I find women that are ambitious, have some passions and are great in a variety of skills I am getting even more infatuated with them. The only issue regarding that is that I don't feel that in any way she would see me as man to have as a lover or boyfriend or whatever, by the way she was with me.
And the thing is I don't know if there is anything I could have done differently. I am pretty sure she just wanted someone to pay for her food by the way she was mentioning it again and again, so just the fact that I held frame and in the end offered to pay only for a small coffee is important for me, as in the past I've been out with women that I ended up paying for, just because they had the vibe of: you are the man and you are lucky to be around me so you will pay. In fact I always had the naive belief that if they are staying around, they are probably also into me a bit sexually and it can be nurtured, I just believed I am good enough to attract them I guess, so paying for something was like sure why not, we are a thing anyway. So it's good I held more frame today, but I don't know what else I could do. In most of the moments that she wasn't complying, with the initial date request, when I sat next to her, when she wasn't telling me stuff about her, I felt that she would very easily sit up and walk away if I firmly held my position, which I could do as a frame win, but I don't see how it would help with the interaction going somewhere eventually. I wanted to try and stick around and see how I can have this go, but maybe it was just a lost cause from the beginning.
That is the main reason I am posting it here as well, to see if there is something that can be done in situations like that to change the whole vibe and move the interaction towards where you want it, or simply some girls will want you for other things and there is nothing you can do about it. And in the end how much you stay in such a scenario and give it a try to turn things around, and in which smooth ways. So any comment or suggestion is welcome.
