This is a relatively new relationship. Things were going fine, and she is/was very into me. Two Fridays ago, we were maybe going to meet up. It started to look like it wasn't going to happen, and I started to drink excessively. I persisted in trying to get her to meet up, probably too much so. She finally sent me a message which made it very clear that she couldn't meet that night (she had valid reasons). I ended up sending a drunk, impulsive message saying "well, it looks like it's time for us to part ways, yada yada yada." It didn't really set in what I had done until she sent a response saying "well, good luck with everything."
I sobered up and started to regret it quite a bit. After a fair amount of convincing, she agreed to meet up with me for Sunday brunch. The in person meet up went about as well as it could have...there still seemed to be a connection, I was able to make her laugh/blush, and it was still flirty. She said she wanted a week "to see how things go". She and I both knew I would be gone for a week, so I'm not sure what I was supposed to do there. I gave her some space and told her that I completely understood if she wanted to walk away. We still messaged back and forth a little (nothing serious). I ended up sending her flowers with last Thursday. She was grateful and expressed interest in what I was up to (I was still out of town).
I sent the last text message on Friday around noon (not really a message where she would feel obligated to respond, and she's never been big on texting even when things were very warm between us). She was going to be with family all Labor Day weekend, so I decided I wouldn't bug her at all. Now it's the day after Labor Day, and I thought she would have messaged me by now. We don't share social circles, so I'm not going to see her organically.
I genuinely want her back. What's my play here? Keep waiting for her to reach out? Give her an actual phone call? Something else?
