I've been doing the online dating thing for a while now. The past week I've been using craigslist to find people and I came into contact with a girl who I seemed to have a lot in common with. We exchanged emails several times before deciding to send pictures of myself. I never received anything else from her after this and figured she didn't like how I looked. This upset me a little and the next day I took my frustration out on her by sending her a message saying she's shallow and should mention this in her ads. A huge mistake on my part, I was also having a bad day too so that may have been a factor. As it turns out she actually did write me back, it was just sent to my junk folder for some reason. She also liked how I looked and sent me a few pictures which REALLY made me regret what I did and now I feel awful and stupid. I wrote her back explaining what happened and apologizing but haven't heard back since. now I'm wondering if I should try writing her once more or just let it go? I don't want to come across as desparate but I figured if she's not planning on talking to me anymore either way then what have I got to lose? There may be more fish in the sea so blowing this one out of the water may not be so drastic but from my previous experience, I've rarely ever met someone who has practically everything I look for in someone and who I am also attracted to. It rarely ever happens and that's why this is bothering me. I thank anyone who can provide some insight on what I should do. Reply to this Question

 Write to her again, you've got nothing to lose and everything to gain. It may just be that she's busy right now and hasn't had time to get back to you. If she sent her photos she must be interested.

I believe it is more personal and really conveys your feelings better than texting. There are a million things you could do to with email these days to convey a honest and sincere apology. They have singing cards and other helpful aids. Move forward on this I hope she accepts your apology. Good-luck...
