Alright, so I've hooked up with girls before but I'm clearly no master here. I've had this pattern of meeting several girls in a short period like if I'm coming off of some cool exciting travels etc. and then going stagnant for months at a time. I'm starting to realize tho that those times when i'm totally on my game and can get the girl are self created and not as random as I previously suspected. I'm getting better at turning it on when I want to.

So here's a situation that I'll pose to Seddit. I met this girl at a pizza shop downtown where she works. She's right up my alley what with DIY projects and taking care of her self. She don't take shit from nobody and isn't the lame stupid party girl type (tho half price pitchers from her shop are hard to resist). She talks to everybody and hugs and kisses but I get the feeling she isn't sleeping with them. I asked her out and we had a really nice time just walking around. We hung out several times over the next few weeks and the chemistry was obvious. I travel a lot for work and pleasure but she's the type of girl I'd want for a girlfriend if she wasn't tied down to school/job etc. This is a slow game question because she doesn't graduate for another year still and I'm probably not gonna be in town for a good bit of that time but I'd like for something real to come out of it on the other side.

Well I've got a job 3 states over that was supposed to start 2 weeks ago but it got delayed and now I'm in this same town for 10 days more. She knew I was leaving and said she really wanted to see me before I left but work or social obligations or what have you's got in the way and she didn't make it out on what was supposed to be my last day in town. I don't know if she was just super busy or if I started getting too attached and spooked her but I figured if she didn't make time to see me then she doesn't like me enough to be spending my precious time on. When I found out my plans changed I didn't bother to tell her cuz I don't need no Tony the Tiger girlfriend (flakes are NOT in fact great).
She hasn't called or texted and I know that she's not going to if she thinks I'm in Colorado. Not the type of girl who would want to risk being a bug but I'm confident she'd be happy to hear from me if I hit her up. I've got other leads to pursue but she's the one I'm actually interested in. This is about the point where we start playing hypotheticals.

First, and this may end up happening anyways unless I actively avoid her (small town), I hit her up now, like today, or maybe go see her at work with a "surprise! I'm still in town if you wanna come drink with me". at that point she will either be really excited, or I'm wrong and had slipped up somehow causing her to not be into me anymore. Most likely I would get to see her but I'm trying to figure out what's best long term

Second, I leave it where it's at, try my hand with girls in the next town over and then maybe hit her up in a month to say hey, I'm in colorado, how are you? Start some text convos or phone chatting when I have time off from work. Let her know that she missed the opportunity of hanging out with me for 3 extra weeks by not showing up that day and that it was her loss

Another option I see is just not even saying anything until I get back here and then being like "waddup I'm in town if you wanna meet up". This might not be for 3-7 months. We only had sex once but I bet she'll remember it if she doesn't have a bf by then...

Obviously the last option is to just say fuck all, if she blew me off once then she lost the game and I'll delete her from my phone and never talk to her again
