Haha yes still. She is a nice girl.

Btw I didnt meet her via an app tho.

I was introduced to her by a mutual gf friend at a social function. And both of us know about each others existence before that due to the mutual gf. I always thought she was very attractive in the photos Ive seen of her before n was quite excited to finally meet her in person (but of course played it cool).

We got to talk and I then got her number (using some silly excuse). Then it was about a month of texting every few days of nonsensence topics before we agreed on our first date. After the first date we texted daily. There was definite chemistry from my POV.

The girls you met are from dating apps. They are looking and have liked your profile. The girl this SGSuser is going after is a classmate and from what he described hasnt given any indication of interest. The hill is steeper but is not impossible, if he makes the right moves.

But I agree on your point abt festival. Bad time to set a first date. Competition is too high. From her family n her friends. Why would she choose to spend such an important time with a barely known person instead of other more important people?

My first date with my gf was during weekday, after work. It was also impromptu on that day. We were exchanging some text during office hours n I asked her what happen to our coffee plans? She then complained how busy her life has been, working late etc. I then asked her to have dinner with me near her office that evening. Initially I got some standard excuses (dont know what time she finish work, not properly dressed) but i persisted n she finally said ok at 7 pm. Abt 8pm.we were on our first date.

Try again during CNY. If she refuse to come out again. I think you got the answer. Another way is try video call and see if she's up for it.
