Before I get to the awkwardness, I would like to share some background information. I am a sophomore in college. Over this summer I hung out with this girl, I liked her a lot and made a move at the end of the summer. She said that she only wanted to be friends. I still liked her, but I was cool with it.
Now for the fun part. You know how 13 year old girls on tv will do weird stuff like write the name of the boy they like in their spiral or call them and hang up before it starts ringing? Well I tried something along that same line. I typed out a text message that said nothing except "Youre beautiful. I love you" with her name in the address bar. I end up clumsily sending the text and I start furiously hammering the cancel button. Initially, I wasn't worried because canceled texts normally don't send. However, about 15 seconds later I get a text message from her containing only a '?'
OOOOOH FUUUUCK. My face was white. I tried to send another text message for damage control, but my hands were shaking so typing was hard. I explained that I sent the text message on accident and said that I was only being dramatic when I used the word 'love.'
She said not to worry about it because it was an accident, that it wasn't a big deal. It might not be, but I feel absolutely retarded.\
edit
K guys, I reached into my pants and found my testicles. I told her how I actually feel and now she is giving me a shot. I guess confidence is a good skill toi have.

you've started down the stalker path, now it's time to up the ante. stand outside of her place the entire night and greet her when she first walks out the next morning. good luck
|
Should have said "O shit wrong number"
^or just start stalking her.
|
well just be honest now
if you try to play it off like a joke you'll probably look like a douche. I'd just go for it at that point
|
Yeah don't be a douche. I would:
A: Stop being 13
B: Tell her it was a joke, be friends.
-Sorry to go off topic, but I just noticed xel naga caverns is basically Destination. It made me really happy. I don't think that deserves it's on topic-
C: You're having a hard time getting girls. That sucks. I remember what it was like when I was a young teenager and wanted boys and couldn't get any. It sucked. But the sad fact is that most young teenage boys are repulsive — that is, they are half-formed works in progress. Girls mature physically more quickly than boys, which means most girls your age already look like young women and they're generally attracted to (slightly) older boys — and there you are, aching for your first girlfriend, but still looking like a short, hairless chimp.
But don't despair, HUTB. Your awkward/repulsive stage will pass. In the meantime, here's what you need to do: worry less about getting your young teenage self laid and start thinking about getting your eighteen- or twenty-year-old self laid. Join a gym and get yourself a body that girls will find irresistible, read — read books — so that you'll have something to say to girls (the best way to make girls think you're interesting is to actually be interesting), and get out of the house and do shit — political shit, sporty shit, arty shit — so that you'll meet different kinds of girls in different kinds of settings and become comfortable talking with them.
Some more orders: get a decent haircut and use deodorant and floss your teeth and take regular showers and wear clean clothes. Go online and read about birth control and STIs, and learn enough about female anatomy that you'll be able to find a clitoris in the dark. Masturbate in moderation — no more than ten times a day — and vary your masturbatory routine. I can't emphasize this last point enough. A vagina does not feel like a clenched fist, HUTB, nor does a mouth, an anus, titty-fucking, dry-humping, or e-stim. If you don't want to be sending me another pathetic letter in five years complaining about your inability to come unless you're beating your own meat, HUTB, you will vary your routine now so that you'll be able to respond to different kinds of sexual stimulation once you do start getting the girls.
Good luck, kiddo.
(The above advice was for a straight teenage boy. Gay teenage boys should read "boys" where I said "girls," "anus" where I said "vagina," "prostate" where I said "clitoris," and "fist" where I said "fist.")

Yeah, I would have stuck with the "Ooops, wrong number thing"
|
Lexpar, that would probably be useful advice if i wasnt a TWENTY YEAR OLD COLLEGE SOPHOMORE.

you're 20? that's pretty awkward then lol
|
My friends always send retarded texts off my phone. Just use that excuse next time.
|
you shouldn't feel retarded because that was a silly and harmless move, but you do feel retarded because she didn't accept it lightly and showed she isn't interested in you
yeah, your chances of getting her now are pretty slim, but you can make up for your blunder by being slick and continuing to be playful and whatnot
|
Why would you even put yourself in that situation?? Next time just leave the address bar blank if you're not even planning on actually sending the text LOL.
And in my experience, cancelled texts always send to the recipient even though I've cancelled it ):

that's not that awkward. well, even putting that in a text on your phone and still not intentionally trying to send it is slightly weird. :p

HAHAHA!!! Great line!
Seriously, all you have to do is say, my friends have a strange sense of humor. That fixes everything.
|
lol... yeah I'm always worried that I'll do this shit while drunk... but never sober... and even when I'm drunk I always have that excuse... sry I was wasted. Hey... you could use the same excuse... she'll never know
|
I think a girl did this to my facebook wall once. I said it was ok and scolded her in a joking manner to not do it again. Don't really think about the occasion too much anymore. She was kinda cute but I think she probably loved some other guys. And I didn't love her back. No regrets.
|
unless you're in the friend zone, you have nothing to worry about.
girls nowdays are super fucking easy bro.
just try not to overthink this shit.
if she doesn't approach you about this in real life, not via txt, then she's not worth it
and is a dumb broad.
if she does approach you, you got a chance.

you should have said that you meant to send it to your mom
|
You sound like a sophomore in High School, mang
|
Cue awkward turtle.
Yes, very 13 year old girl thing to do. Probably should avoid that kind of behavior at this age. Doesn't bode well.

That "beautiful" part would need some explaining.
