This post had to be taken down because it appears to be focused on a specific situation or person. While Field Reports deal with specific situations and people, remember that the focus is different:
No worries though! Though the thread has been taken down, any conversations you have started here can still continue, and if you want to PM a mod to get their opinion on this thread, feel free to do so and they will still be able to weigh in.
For next time, remember that posts about a specific situational advice with a specific person are fine as field should be directed to Ask Seddit (/r/askseddit), not to be confused with Ask Reddit.

This. Best one so far.

Yep and only clarify the joke once she’s replied. Or you double text and she hasn’t seen the first, it doesn’t have impact

It heavily depends on the level of commitment and relationship between you and her. There is no one correct answer.
[–]Chuck_MoreAss 8 points9 points10 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Well I’ll need more info about you and her and what you both like.
You could maybe respond with a yes and say “yeah I did. You make the best sandwiches ever, and I guess your conversation is okay too”
You could also say “yeah but probably not as much as you miss me. Can’t blame you tho I’m kinda awesome”
You could also say “no not really, but I have been thinking about your dog a lot he’s so cute. You think I can have him?” There are multiple ways this can go.
It really depends on your character though. Be confident and if she doesn’t like the reply so what, but just don’t go overboard.

Oh okay. Well In my opinion you should stay playful and funny 70%-80% of the time to let her know you are fun but can be serious.
Since you both like each other you can be very playful about the interaction. Say that you worked Most of the day and thought about her because you heard a cool song or something When she asks questions you should try to not fully answer the question sometimes (not all the time) like with this response you told her you worked but didn’t tell her anything else and let her know you thought about her. Later on you can say oh yes that reminds me I also did this today
Maybe try that 🤷🏻♂️

She isn't really asking if you missed her there. It's just a throwaway like how's things. Ignore it or make an absurdly exaggerated joke depending on the person.
[–]MeeloP 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Tell her to come over.

I'll tell something that would work for me. But it may not work for somebody else due to having a completely different character. It also varies from girl to girl . So be careful and only use the answers below for ideas instead of copying them:
"Don't worry about me. I tried to replace you with another girl that looks just like you but I realized it just not the same"
"Ooh you were gone?"
"Is that you again?.....I mean.....Yes I missed you"
"Come here and I'll let you know"
"I never say such things via text. But I can whisper it in your ear when you are here"
"What do you want the answer to be?"
"To tell you the truth I" and then write nothing as if you sent the text too early by accident.
"Of course I did. I don't like cooking my own food" or something like that
The most important thing is that she needs to fight for that validation a bit. When she gets it to easy the guy in question becomes less of a challenge and causes her to lose interest. Women will probably tell something different but they are wrong.
[–]Krystalgal313 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
What does your gut tell you? Really, her asking you is her way of telling you she needs more attention and wants you to tell her without her having to ask. It sounds like, since you say you usually come on too strong, that you may both have the same emotional needs. If you are not yourself now, how can you be sure she will like you when you start being yourself later? Its best to be yourself and let it all work itself out, wasting no time on anyone who doesn’t appreciate you for you. And vice versa. There are plenty of ways to keep excitement in the relationship without having to bring in the drama of not being yourself. That just causes confusion and pain later on.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
“That depends” - “Why does it depend” - “How can I miss you if you come over and see me”
"I think so. Try moving your head about one foot to your left................ perfect."

I would take the piss
So I would be like “Nowt much to miss 😏”
But depends on her personality and your relationship with her, if you think she takes it seriously probs don’t do it
If she the serious type
“Miss out on what?”
“By the sound of it you missed me”
“Maybe, maybe not”

[–]ricoconyo -5 points-4 points-3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Play dumb “sorry?” And then when she clarifies, just agree and exaggerate. “Oh yeah with every last breath” keeps it flirty and playful. Works for me at least

How long has it been since you guys have talked?
[–]david10277 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link
Very interesting I had the same question with my scenario, the response requires more context. I will share mine and look for feedback
So I have a age gap with a few on my scenarios.
We both agreed we just want to hang and not get into anything serious since we both left bad relationships. So we dont talk every day and when we try to hangout her schedule is crazy since shes a bartender. If she cancels our meetup she will explain why and send me screen shots of conversations I guess to make me believe shes trying. Sometimes when talking she ask me out the blue - do you miss me - ??
I'm like hmm why is she asking this ? Is she just looking for validation she ask me and I told her yes the first time. The second time she asks me I responds with- do you feel like I missed you? She responded yes.
Now a week or so later i asked her if she missed me , she responded, "what do you think". I was a little taking back, was not sure if she was being sarcastic or upset..or what,..moved past it.
I guess I'm at the point where it feels like I'm doing more pushing to see her and spend time than she is. Which I dont wish to do. I noticed if she cancels she always try to reschachudle , if I dm her she always responds eventually. Just Not.right way.
When we do go out the time is fantastic and she does all the girlfriend shit. Touching me lauching..good conversation etc.
I think shes trying to hold the relationship at this level but feelings are starting to come out. The other night I was out and she texted me I didn't respond until I got in..like 5am . She responded with " u got home at 5am, what were you doing ) which I assumed was her female brain thinking the worst.
So to me its mixed signals - given the age diffeeence I think she only sees this going so far. But what she enjoys, travel ,foodie, busines guys her age are not experienced or financially stable to provide those things. So I assume she looks passed the age difference with me, she also knows that I have kids and a ex wife. I assume if she proceeded to still hang with me after knowing these things she is attracted somewhat.
Shes invited me to her place 2x , we always go out to eat which I pay the tab. Bought her 2 gifts I thought about it and said is this a sugar daddy scenario im in ??
But her asking if I missed her , inviting me to her place. She also bought me a small gift once and had sex with me after I told her my history.
I'm I reading this wrong ? Is she just taking it slow Trying to hold my coolness but its eating me now.
One thing I noticed is her energy and effort of engagement is the same since one..her reply take hrs and she always sends proof if shes canceling or going somewhere. Thoughts ??

"Your absence was my constant companion." - Clever, if a bit needy
"Yeah, I went out, but no one makes me laugh like you do." - Suggests she needs to keep your attention because you are looking.
