Put a small AD in the newspaper.. and find her..

Bisquitlips · 8 February 2010, 08:17 AM

Probably for the best anyway. Sounds like she had an expensive watch habit.

Yazo · 8 February 2010, 09:09 AM

Craiglists missed encounters...

A couple I know met off there... well they met at some bar but re-connected because of CL...

TheBluePrince · 8 February 2010, 09:57 AM

Sometimes Rolex is not enough.

dalip · 8 February 2010, 10:04 AM

well...live and learn mate....next time you won't screw it up

but..then again you may have asked for her number and she could have turned you down..at least this way you have the fantasy

she could have also suggested you exchange numbers...she didn't....maybe she to is somewhere regretting it....maybe not...have I made you feel better

Renoir · 8 February 2010, 10:11 AM

...the one that got away...

That's happened to me so many times, don't let it get you down. Each experience will just prepare you and make you sharper for the next one!

As far as the girl - no worries, if it is meant to be, it'll be. This way you know if you run into her again, it is no accident. Universe has a funny way of connecting dots, so have faith, my man!

I can safely say that nobody has ever compared me to the girls gone wild guy before - thanks... I think =]

Oftentimes the fantasy is better than the real thing.

If you visit there often enough your paths will cross again.

Great quote from a great hockey player, thanks Chris :)

You didn't seal the deal!!! She probably thought you were engaged or something at the end of your conversation. There's a fine line between being pushy, desperate, or just interested.

I realised about 10 seconds after she left that I had completely blown it. It's not the first time I've done something stupid like this and I doubt it will be the last.

I'm sure she and her Date-Just are somewhere out there. We could have been putting our watches on the same watch-winder every night, but alas - it's not meant to be :)

But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Flying high, And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.

That's not the right word, it's the other F word

hehehehehehe

How is it you know her age, as you stated,

but not a mention of her NAME?

"Hi, my name is Dave ...."

brkanand · 9 February 2010, 01:42 AM

Finally, have you found out where she lives?

That's an easy one - as I said I first started chatting to her about her watch. It looked really new and I asked her how long she'd had it and she told me she'd gotten it for her 21st birthday quite a long time ago - it turned out she was around my age - 27 or 28. And no I didn't ask her for her name, as is well established... I stuffed this in a big way :)

The question wasn't meant to make him feel bad.

She might have thought he was married or had a girlfriend.

SLRdude · 9 February 2010, 01:46 AM

I am going through a similar situation right now, but with a girl I have loved for 15 years.
I can't even eat, and I lost about 10 pounds in the past 8 days.

I'm really sorry to hear that dude - hang in there and hopefully everything will work out for you :)

TheVTCGuy · 9 February 2010, 02:07 AM

That sucks Dave, If it was meant to be you'll see her again, I'd advise eating at the Sushi place a LOT, maybe you'll run in to her!

Now, as to women, let me tell you everything I know about sucessfully courting and dating a lovely lady.....

That was it, do you have any questions?

Don't be so hard on yourself...most of us guys have been there. I would keep frequenting the place and hopefully you'll see her again....the world really is a small place.

Chozn1 · 9 February 2010, 06:43 AM

I'm told on a somewhat regular basis that I married up, and my wife will tell you it's due to persistence. I'd be eating sushi every damn day at that same restaurant til I found her again.

You did not behave stupidly - it's sounds as though you choked due to anxiety. It is in no way helpful to castigate yourself, it will only make you less effective the next time an opportunity presents itself. The truth is you're human and it's difficult to sometimes think and/or act quickly on your feet, particularly when faced with the possibility that your actions could be met with rejection. Have a plan, because trust me, you will be confronted with this situation again (probably many times over) in your lifetime. Decide that no matter what your internal experience, you will put yourself out there and take a risk. People can handle acceptance, and despite the discomfort, people can also handle rejection. It is surely not knowing how things might have played out that is the most difficult position in which to find oneself. Learn from this experience and decide to act differently next time despite how you might be feeling. As we all know, feelings aren't always rational, and there are times we need to move out of our comfort zone, and take a risk in order to meet our own needs. I wish you the best. Faith
