So I've been dating pretty frequently in the 6 months since my long-term relationship ended. Been going out with a lot of women, some of which I want to spend more time with, some I don't... you know how it goes. Most of this is through online dating sites.
I met this woman on one. We'll call her Sarah. We talked a little bit online first and she suggested we do something that night. I said that I am booked up all that week. Made the mistake of telling her that I was booked up with dates. A different girl every night until the weekend.
Anyway, Sarah and I finally went out (one of my dates bailed on me) and I feel like we had pretty good chemistry. No kiss, but I feel like I made it pretty clear I was attracted to her (touching, etc.).
Anyway, on the date she asked about "so what's it been like since your break-up, have you had any relationships?" She's also asked about how various dates went on different days when we've been texting.
I keep replying "a gentleman never tells." She thinks it's silly, and I admit I am teasing her a bit. Nevertheless, I think it's a good strategy... I already feel as if I'm on the precipice of "friend zone" with her. Besides it's none of her business right? I get the strong sense that she's more open about her previous relationships than myself.
Tonight I called and asked her out again. She said yes. She asked about tonight's date and I responded the same way. She said "You gotta open up to me a bit. There's nothing worse than unrealized expectations due to non-communication." Maybe I'm dense, but what does that mean???? Have I already been friend zoned by this woman after one date?
