I'm 28, she's 42. She looks very young so its not like if we went out it would look odd.

We've been texting for a few days and heavy flirting. Selfies, telling each other how excited we are to see each other, other things basically implying we are going to hook up.

I knew things were going pretty fast and I have seen things like this be cancelled before, and of course I get the text, "I'm sorry, I'm not ready to date right now."

Usually I would reply some bs like "I understand, you're a sweet woman with a lot to offer, take all the time you need etc etc" but this time I just said, "yeah I saw this coming," and that was it, to which she replied, "I'm sorry."

We were going to meet Jan 2, should I go cold on her until then or just move on completely?
