OP..
IMO..
No disrespect to you nor any other poster who offered an opinion or advice to you, but don't allow other people to influence how you choose to deal with this woman. That also include myself.
If you want to respond to her, then do it. Sometimes, we may respond to bring closure to the situation (which may be self serving), but could be cathartic in certain situations.
However, I can respect the fact that ol girl put on her big girl draws and kept it a buck about how she felt about you. Yeah, it was a soft apology, but one nevertheless...
Many women wouldn't do it or some would try to flip the script and make it seem like you are the bad guy some how...
Based on what I read on her text, she basically said what I originally stated in my original response. She didn't get that spark when she went out with you which is whatever..
She want to put you in the friend zone or send you to her practice squad with the option to call you up to her active roster later on when she get lonely, older, with kids, divorced and shyt like that down the line..
I can't tell you what to do, but I have a policy of permanently charging women to the game when they curve me or try to friend zone me. I put their asses in my version of the benign neglect program. Basically, getting on that program is like being on civil/social death row! Lol
They ain't NEVER getting out of it! They basically a step above a transgendered person as far as I am concerned meaning I don't see them the same as a regular woman.
I say all of this to say that I believe that the only woman worthy of my time & attention are those who want to get with me. Even if things don't work out, that at least she looked at me as a man who got manly needs and was willing to do her part in satisfying said needs among other things.
I don't have the patience to be dealing with women who are mentally in high school talking about being friends and dance buddies. So, if I accepted that position and we hang out, who is gonna pay to get into a dance club?
Are we going dutch? Is she gonna be cool if I decided to dance with other women? What if I want to holla @ other women? Will she be my wing woman? Who gonna pay for the food bill @ Denny's? Me? Or will she say some we could take turns paying bullshyt?
Nah..
Too old for that!
She said that she is cool with whatever you decide to do which was her way of making herself feel good about reaching out to soft apologize. It would help her clear her conscious so she can move on with her life and do her thing with other people.
Sorry for the long response, but I wrote this to let you know that I been there & done that many times over. I know the drill....
If you decide to ignore her, then do it. Me? I may ignore her or I would write a brief text(if you can believe that? Lol) thanking her for her honesty and bidding her a friendly farewell. After that, delete her number and go on about my business....
Thanks for sharing the update!
Salute & respect to ya!
