Story goes like this:
Say you met a girl at work in the cafeteria/corridor/coffee shop. She is very attractive and you slightly fancy her now you see her. You seem to get on well and have similar personalities.
She recognises you as you were both on the same work experience last summer. She initiated conversation. You hit it off a little then (but she definitely had a bf then). You are so elated at meeting her, you can barely speak, but somehow get the words in. But you couldn't work out a way to get the number. Later you buzz her on your work messenger, chat very briefly and find out she's off on holiday next week.
Then a week later, you are offered a job at another firm in another city which you take. You email the girl before you leave wishing her the best and leaving your number, hoping, but not expecting a reply.
She emails back and says good luck and gives you her number.
Now no attraction has been established, it's just friendly for now. You're shy initially with people, but when given time can build rapport, especially face to face. You think this girl is really fit, but wouldn't mind even being friends with her as she has a lovely personality.
Thing is you text her happy new years, she replies and includes x's on the text.
You text her another time in february, and she replies, this time, two days after, rather than immediate. The x's are gone, but she did reply you guess.
But how do you build rapport? You can see it is difficult to build up a relationship over text long distance. This time, you are initiating. She must have a boyfriend too. You won't be in her city permanantly and can only visit during the daytime by train if you know in advance. You wish you could be in her social circle.
Is it too late? Can you somehow build up friendship? Should you restrict texting only at new years or xmas or halloween?
Will she invite you to a birthday party?
What can you do?!!
Put the internet to work for you.
