though it's not necessary to read it. long story short, arranged to pick her up from near her home to come my place to prep food together. she didn't show. 10min after the meet time a short SMS exchange -
her: i am sorry. i'm not at home now. will come back 1 hour later.
me: [my address] let me know when you're near (so far so good. i'm not showing annoyance, i'm leaving a window open, and i'm not losing frame. she can come to me now, that's all)
her: before dinner
me: u said 1 hour. i didn't eat yet but you better hurry. (weak. should have ignored all further texts)
her: i come back, you can eat something. (i think this means she's gone home. not sure, though, so ... i send one more)
me: what's your ETA
ok so this isn't handled well, so far... then, later:
her: maybe i made you angry. i am so sorry.
me: cool
her: sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry,
me: forget about it. enjoy your day
then comes a barrage of SMS/IM messages, she sent both to ensure i got them. asked what i'm doing in the evening. i told her working till 8.15.
her: i would be honored to have a date with you after 8.15
me: (at 8.30ish) i guess you can come over.
her: but i don't know the way
me: you got the address already [my address]
her: hmm you are bad friend
obv she doesn't come. later that evening (11ish)
her: ok it's really my fault.
me: (40 mins later) no big deal
then over the course of the next hour (i'm paraphrasing now):
her: you're a bad man.
her: i'm really sad.
her: broken-hearted.
her: if i can't find someone i want to marry.
her: i am a slow person, you know slow people are emotional so now i'm very sad.
her: i tell you my secret. i always wanted love everyday, hold hands, hug each other give each other warmth, just simple like that.
her: i hate a man, who clearly promises to give me happiness, so easily abandons me now (i guess she's talking about me ignoring her messages, i definitely didn't give her any promises though, besides a delicious meal).
her: can you help me give him a black eye?
her: i have to hurry and find a person who can stay with me for a lifetime, then i'll be very happy very happy very happy.
her: now i'm trying to save money to travel, to learn to become a better person but also to meet a better man.
her: you are here, i can only say a secret friend. so i tell you this, i'm going to give myself time to heal and be stronger to face the things in life.
her: bad friend doesn't talk to me. ho hum ho hum ...
her: now i can't sleep
her: hi ...?
so i think my biggest mistake here was inviting her to my place directly, i should have met her outside another time first. there's no wiggle room. after the flake my only option was to move forward, i.e she must now come directly to my place .... anyway i feel a bit one-itis-y about this girl so i know i'm reading into her words rather than looking at her actions. if she was interested she wouldn't have flaked in the first place (although the amount she has invested might be throwing me off). i guess i could have met her another day .. or met her outside after i finished my work but that would have been low value after the preceding events.
anyway, this was two days ago, i expected a "hello" yesterday morning or night but neither came.
ho hum
EDIT: my usual response might be "well, i'm sure you'll think of a way to make it up to me .." but i dunno if that's ...... putting too much emphasis on the fact that she slighted me. like i'm saying "you disrespected me so you have to make it up" when beforehand i basically dismissed it as NBD. does that make sense?
