The dates seemed to go really well, so why the silent treatment?

Question - (27 May 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 29 May 2010)
A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I met a woman at the building I work in about a month or so ago and have been out with her twice so far. The first date went very well, she was obviously having a great time, good conversation, etc. etc. and she suggested at the end of the date that we go out again.

The second date went even better than the first! We must have talked for a good 4-5 hours or so over drinks, she was very obviously flirting with me the whole time as well. I got her number at the end of the night, she thanked me for a fantastic evening, asked if we could see each other again, texted me later that night about the great time she had (which I replied likewise to), and that was that.

I texted her the next Monday (we went out Friday) and never heard back from her. A couple days later, I saw her at work and she barely acknowledged me, in fact she seemed disappointed to see me. Didn't smile or stop to chat, just fast-walked past me and mumbled something about how she couldn't talk. She wouldn't even look at me. I haven't been pestering her since the last date because I don't want to drive her off (maybe one text and an email, total?) but she's made no effort to communicate with me at all, no replies to messages, nada.

No idea what happened, it's a total reversal! Does anyone have any suggestions? I don't want to seem like I'm coming on too strong so I haven't pushed it, but I do enjoy being with her and would like to see her again. Help!

OP here, thank you all for your responses. I think Danielepew and West1000 nailed it though, she's probably a total headcase. Ah well, on to greener and less pathological pastures!

Wow. haha. really confusing, but my advice to you is just tell her how you feel in an email. So she can read it before she replies to it so she cant jump to say something before your done speaking, just be like, whats going on? we havent been talking.. dont go over board about it just basically tell her in a sentence or two that she has been ignoring you... if she replies to that, good. if not, then.. i have no idea. but thats what i would do. :)

maybe she found someone else? who knows.. it could be anything, really.

Danielepew agony auntI suggest you don't try to go anywhere near her. If things happened this way, you did nothing wrong. So there's no room for apologizing for something you didn't do. If she has a problem, she can't expect you to read her mind. And, if she will ignore you, do the same. Don't let her treat you this way.
