Next move

[RangerJoe]

Okay, so here's where I stand. About two weeks ago, I sent M an email which basicly let her know how I feel about her. Since than I haven't heard hide nor hair of her.

I can't just drop on by (I work/live about five or six hours from home). What I'm wondering, I guess, should I give her a call? Would I be being pushy if I did?

At this point, I'm not overly worried about the email I sent, I just miss her and want to know how's things going. I did send her an email a few days back, just a general 'how-things-are' kinda deal, but I perfer to actually talk.

So, any ideas anyone?

That's a problem with email.

Next time, don't do really really important stuff via email. Do it on the phone or in person where you can get an answer immediately. If you do it via email or mail and you don't get an answer, you'll never be sure whether she's not interested or just hasn't received it and that sucks.

I agree with mmj. E-mail is definately no good for something like that. You'll be forever wondering whether she has checked her e-mail yet, or whether she actually received the e-mail at all. A 'phone call is always the better option. It's little more awkward now that you've sent the e-mail, but still worth a shot. If she's definately not interested, she'll soon let you know.

Me three. I would suggest an in person conversation, but since that seems out of the question, I think a phone call would be fine. She should have replied to the email if she got it to be polite, and if she ignores you again she's probably not interested (or worth it.)

If she gave you her phone number and it didn't come into your hands by doing a search, call her and put your mind to rest. Meg

Will, I called. Since I had used one of those e-card services that let you know when your message was picked up, I know she got it.

We talked for a bit. Got caught up on work and life in general. The thing was, she didn't make reference to the e-card. So I think what I'm going to do is one of two things.

1) Become a scary stalker guy, devoting the rest of my life to following her.

-- OR --

2) Wait and see. After all, I can't (fairly) expect her to return feelings that I've had for close to six or eight months in only a hand full of weeks.

I think I'll go with Option 2.
