View Full Version : Am I not asertive enough?
So after I got off of work I decided to call this girl Ive been seeing. I asked her if she wanted me to come over, figuring it would be nice to see her and all even though I just saw her for about 5 hours at work. So she replies "If you want to" in a kind of I really dont care either way is ok kind of voice. Thats at least the way I took it. So I told her that Im gonna go home, eat and give her a call thinking maybe if I dont call her she'll get curious as to why I didnt call her and she'd invite me over. Of course that never happened. We spoke online a few times and thats about it. She seemed to be pre-ocupied with reading a book she told me. So I took that as Im not in the mood tonight, maybe another night. Nope, I went outside to shoot off a few bottle rockets, when I came back to look at my away messages I got the idea that she was now dissapointed that we're not hanging out. Now I feel like shit and I I dont know what to say. Guess Im gonna have to make it up to her someway somehow. My question, a dumb one if that, should I have called her. Im not big on talking on the phone even if it is small talk. Now I get to see her at 8AM tommorow and try to appologize to her why I didnt call.

<p>Ahhh, I can't leave ya like that ag.</p><p>Listen, DO YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING ON (fill in the blank) NIGHT is a very straight forward question. Your choices are YES or NO. I'd tell her what she did made you feel weird. Let her know that her "if you want to" answer made it seem like she didn't want to do anything. Instead of you playing a game back, you should have addressed it right there. </p><p>So I guess yes. On this one, you were not assertive enough. I'd say let this one smooth over, and if something stupid happens again, address is right there.</p>

you should wait at least three days to call her. you're like a big fucking bear with these big razor sharp claws and she's like the scared little bunny. don't be the nice pg-13 guy who everyone's rooting for.

<p>It's realy easy. NEVER say "Do you want me to come over?" They'll always take that as if you are not that interested.</p><p>ALWAYS say "I want to come over" or "I want to see you".</p><p>Any games played after that line, then you know where you stand. In mud.</p>
