The opposite of vibing

By AuraOfJustice - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I was texting a girl I like. Every message she sent came ten minutes after I sent her a message. When I told her, "I've to go", she responded almost instantly with an, "OK, bye." FML

Maybe if you worked up the balls to talk to her in person instead of being an impersonal **** and just doing it via text, it might have a better outcome for you. That, or she just doesn't like you.

She's not interested in you, face it. Besides, it is so ******* annoying if someone keeps sending texts. Ugh.

Even ignoring the other problems inherent to this FML, consider: - It takes more time to text longer responses than shorter ones, so it would be faster to just say "ok, bye" - It's easier to say something nearly meaningless (such as "ok, bye") than something more meaningful - The way SMS works (basically, the message is only sent when there's some free space on the network rather than actively trying to push the message) means that there will be random delays that you can't really track - There's every possibility she was actively busy during most of it and either happened to free up at the right time for the last message or was able to shoot off a quick message despite being busy. Long story short, your life isn't ******, but it will be (and it will be 100% your fault) if you waste time overanalysing every little thing when that time could be better spent growing a pair and actually saying something to this girl about your crush.

Seriously? They're text messages. Not everyone has the luxury of keeping the phone glued to their hand every moment of the day. Most people assume that if it was something important, people would call, and therefore don't run for the phone every time it beeps. If you want to have a meaningful conversation, why don't you try calling instead of making a big deal of the fact that a text message isn't an immediate priority.

Well, her plane landed. Give her a break...

What a b!tch. If she didn't want to talk she could have told you she wasn't in the mood to talk.

Wow, maybe that's coz 'ok, bye' is a really quick message to type?? Deary me...

You should have replied with "just kidding! :D". That would've been funny.

maybe she likes you too, and was just as nervous as you. :)

freak much? i think so. get a life? def.
