Hello there,

I am talking with a girl over text. However a week ago, her grandfather died. I was very supportive and showed that i was there when she needed. She then texted me a few days, thanking me for the support, and wishing me good Christimas vacations. I answer like this : " Hello Jane, you dont need to thank me. You need however to stop saying sorry all the time, i have the intention of taking care of you my little Ariel ;) " . At the time i though it was a good text however i begin to think if i was a little needy.I want your opinion on that.

After that text i receive her answer like this :" Oh sorry, saying sorry leaves all the time o_O. Ah ah i am already emancipated and have hands :p "

My dillema is : Is she giving me a indirect hint that she doesnt need me to "take care of her" in the sense of liking me or is just paranoia on my part?

Thanks
I will be waiting for answers ;)

Raphael-

I'm guessing this was in another language (not English), correct?

The texts (both yours and hers, but especially hers) don't make complete sense as presented here, so it's hard to get a read on what they're saying or what the subtext is.

From what I gather from yours though, you're really going overboard with the early boyfriend stuff if this is a girl you haven't slept with yet. You want to be supportive, but not act like the boyfriend prior to sex. Check out this article for detail on why: The Early Boyfriend: Why It's a Bad Idea.

A better response from you here for her thanking you for your support and wishing you merry Christmas might just have been, "Of course. Stay well. Merry Christmas to you too, and I'll check in with you after the holidays."

Hi Chase,

First congratulations on the forum, its been quite a journey ;)

Thanks for your reply,
I think i was in a phase in my life where i wanted a girlsfriend. I was tired of the games and dumb chicks...and i had found a cute girl.

Well i though if i was protective, and quite the "prince charming" i would get the girl. Maybe i was wrong. Maybe it was too much romantic movies ( mocking alert -.- )
Answering to your question, yes it was in another language. However i do think it was never what i though it was. She was never into me i think. i was in an illusion.
If she was into me, she would leave a text now and then.. but instead shes not missing...No problem.

Thanks for answering one more time ;)
