Hi

I am just trying to read a girls mind, I know very difficult at times!!! I have this work collegue, we don't work in same place just for same company, I have recently got to know this girl and have been texting a bit and talking. She has 2 children aged 11 and 9, troublesome age!! She says she does not get time to spend on her own because of kids. I asked her the offer is there if she wants to go out for a night out sometime as it would be nice, her reply was, "ok I'll get back to you hun x", how should I read this and what should I do next?

Hello,

This may sound like an insane idea, but how about inviting her and the kids together for a Saturday trip or a pancake at your place? Then she must figure out a new excuse. :-)

But don't try this unless you actually like kids -- or you are quite determined to like at least these particular two.

Best wishes,

B.

Did you text her asking her out? Or did you have a typo?

If you texted her, or mailed her, BAD BOY!

The reason you ask a woman face to face is because you can SEE her reaction.

Face to face it should be obvious, if she was pleased, then yes, she might really have meant that she would get back to you (or that you might have to try again at a later point)

If she said in the tone off "don't bug me", then no, she doesn't want to.

Come on, you're 36, you should have some people skills by now and her reaction can be read just as if you asked a co-worker to do something for you. Sorry, dating isn't nearly as complex as people think it is.

Laura1318 agony auntIt means , you still have a chance and the door is not closed on you.

It will depend on the timing and the opportunity available for her .

You got to keep on sending those invitations.

You have said yourself in this question, she had two kids and doesnt get time to spend on her own. And i have been there and it is so hard to get some time to do stuff that you really want to do. They are still the age that need a child minder if she does go out. Does she have people who could look after them? I do think she will go out with you at some point in the future, but i know how hard it is to get someone just to sit with the kids for a couple of hours. So be patient and ask her again the future. If after the second asking nothing comes forward then move on.

take care
