Hey guys, any advice on this tricky/hard-to-read situation would be appreciated... apologies if it's TL;DR
Met a really smart, cute girl with an acerbic wit through friends, hit if off at a bar etc. and got her number, texted her the next day to ask her out, she replies soon after saying shes going away for Xmas/new years to stay with her parents but to send her a text in the new year so we can arrange a date.
Sent her that text last saturday to setup a date, then I went out with some friends, had some drinks, unexpectedly this girl turns up at the bar (although it was the same bar we met)! Chat for a bit with her, she says she got my text and was going to reply but blah blah blah. So I had a couple more drinks with her, by this time I am pretty drunk and the conversation isn't exactly smooth from my end but atleast I move her somewhere quiet to escalate things.
She seems quite flirty and says she'd like to go out with me soon. I make a couple of moves but she plays coy and says i'm too drunk to kiss her (I was quite intoxicated at that stage, and talking some total bollocks but she seemed mildly amused rather than offended at my boorishness), but she still wants to catch up, and we part ways (at this stage we are on good terms and I'm expecting her to send me a text in the next couple of days)
On Monday I find out from one of our friends she'd been "on a couple of dates" with another guy before she met me and I've complicated it because she likes me more.. blahdy blah blah. She hasn't replied to the text I sent her on saturday and I don't like texting a girl twice consecutively (feels like I'm chasing them); but at this stage it looks like nothings gonna happen unless I take some iniative. I've considered just writing it off. Other possibility is we might meet again through chance at our local bar where I can perhaps get a second chance to not get drunk and escalate things properly, though as we know second chances don't come along too often.
cheers guy for reading my long post, i'd be grateful for any thoughts, advice etc.
