Been dating this girl about 6 weeks. Been out 6 times, smashed date #2 and each time since, but I've slipped up a bit with my game here and there, and sure enough, I could tell when she started being a lil more distant. Such is life with being a noob and not having a lot of experience. While I've already accepted she's gonna be gone eventually we still talk every day.
I asked her out for this weekend and got some BS about how family is in town and she "doesn't know when they'll be leaving". Lmfao. So, obviously she's holding out for some other guy that she likes more. Her last message was: "If it's ok, I'll let you know Friday".
Well, quite frankly it's not ok because I'm not trying to be the fucking backup. But I was busy the past couple weekends and I legit have nothing else going on this weekend. So, guaranteed sex with a hot girl I know sounds pretty nice.
How should I respond to this without looking like Mr. available 24/7 with no better plans than to be some bitch's backup plan? Sadly that is the fucking reality right now, but I'm trying to ride this one out till the wheels fall off completely.

It's incredibly dumb for you to make assumptions. Work on your abundance. Spin more plates and stop getting so butthurt.
You jumped on the express train to Negativitytown.

Find something to do this weekend then tell her you planned something else with "another friend" since she couldn't make clear plans but that you will make it up to her. Don't you fucking dare just pretend you are busy; schedule something and go do it.
Once your plans are made, do not change them if she comes around and beg, try to squeeze her in instead.
The worst thing you can do is sit on your ass and hope she'll give you the privilege of her second hand pussy.

Sloppy seconds. She probably won't even shower before coming over.

I don't really have any friends where I live now (that's another issue I know) but you're right. I'll try to force myself to do something solo anyway so I'm not sitting at home all day.

Good on you for getting laid… BUT:
You’re in dangerous oneitis territory and you need to fix this asap. if you aren’t seeing multiple women it’s always gonna end bad. that might seem like a scary daunting task considering your lack of exp but you just gotta do it. it’s like as necessary as hitting your protein goals for the gym.
She is definitely getting railed by Chad and you are definitely backup dick.
Talking every day = bad. hit her up to make plans and that’s about it.

Yeah I'm not seeing mulitple women - reason being I was using bumble for a little and not getting the results I wanted, so I figured I'd go out with this girl and one other and delete the app and try it again later with new pics. But surprisingly things started going places with this girl so it's been me fucking one girl only the past several weeks and now I got all my eggs in one basket. I wanted to take a break from dating and just work on myself tbh but here we are.
And the reason I've been texting her every day is bc I've tried not responding so much, but then she'll double text or send some shit on ig/tiktok.
She had me fooled for a little and I thought she actually fucking liked me, and that's where I started to slip up. So yeah, oneitis was hitting for a second but I see it for what it is now. A little attention from a hot girl got me off my game; the one that was working for me up till that point. Lesson learned for sure.
Thanks for the response though you're right. I def got some things to keep working on.

OLD should be used for supplemental prospecting; real world should be your bread n butter. Bars/parties will be the path of least resistance

"Sure! Hit me up, and we'll see. Can't promise anything though".
And then, if she does follow up on Friday, you've already made plans (real plans, not imaginary plans).

You're already understanding the dynamics, just need more practice.
Just reschedule, never be the plan B.

This isn't what other people said but girls often don't hang out as much when family is in town. I think too many of you guys view that as lying and getting railed by Chad instead of that a woman making more time for family during family weeks (especially if they can't introduce you yet to them) can be fairly normal and especially if she's close enough to her parents that her parents will judge her for not being available for the other parts of the family
Closeness to family isn't a red flag....
Now if after her family leaves and she is still flakey and dumb and things have obviously changed you have your answer.
Too many of you guys conflate certain things with getting her back blown out by Chad instead of seeing if it returns to normalcy after a reason she gives.
Should she make a bit of time for you, yeah, but if it's family, that is one of the few excuses I'm willing to flex on for flakiness
manzana1214 1y ago
I agree with what you're saying, but I think she's lying about family being here tbh. Who's family comes into town and leaves at an indeterminate time? And right before Mother's Day? Also, we haven't seen each other in a couple weeks. I don't know it all... but I do know a high-interest girl would be jumping at the first chance she gets to see me.
But yes, she is super close with her family and I agree that's not a red flag. I just got a hunch she's not telling the truth and is holding out for potential "better" plans, especially considering I'm 99% confident she's talking to/seeing/fucking other guys still.
Vermillion-Rx Admin 1y ago
I didn't see in the OP that you think she was already seeing other guys.
Well in that case find something else to this week and just respond to her current text with "sounds good"
When or if she hits you up tomorrow you better actually have something new to do and plans you made. Don't wait for bitches to give you time, be your own man
manzana1214 1y ago
My bad I didn't want to go on forever with the situation. But yeah I can tell she's talking to other guys based on her IG activity and attention-whore personality. And I've seen some texts come thru from guys a couple times showing me shit on her phone, even though she's a pro and will put her phone on do not disturb when we chill.
I decided to just like her message with the iMessage reaction thing and wasn't gonna say shit per the advice here to stop texting so much. But sure enough she just double texted me again since I didn't actually respond. But the second I up my communication she'll back the fuck off and get all cold and I think that's what made her start to get distant in the first place.

You have much bigger problems than this post

Trust me there's some other major red flags I didn't include, up to and including her "best friend" is apparently a guy.

Its tricky in this case because you don't know her yet. Good loyal girl, values family, of course she will be with her family first not some guy she just met 6 dates ago, she should be ashamed to be banging him already and should not want to let her family see him yet until she knows he's solid. Massive slut will say she has family in town when bigger Chad calls her up. Other possibilities exist in between.
So don't do anything too decisive or jealous looking. You may have to get more info and just accept this one. There is no perfect way to play an unknown situation. Fresh enthusiasm has to calm a little at some point. "Lets plan something solid next weekend (make suggestion), if you are free this weekend try me" Then if you can arrange to see some friends do. Your friends have probably missed you the last few weeks. You never know you might still be bale to fit in banging her around seeing your friends if she came free.
Be sure to ask about the family visit the weekend after and see the pics if you can work it in without looking jealous. Show her some of your family snaps first maybe. If there is no evidence -downgrade her to trashy entertainment when free. If there are see it as neutral or possibly positive, she is loyal and so long as not too clingy to a nightmare mother, that's a good thing.

You need to learn the power of going no contact. Said another way you become invisible. You withdraw all attn. You do this for at least one - two months. In the meantime you meet some new babes. You see what develops. You aren't some BP clown looking for love where you're going to start chasing some chick. You don't want to do that.
