I suck with girls
I bumped into an old girlfriend the other night at a bar, haven't seen her since we broke up. Basically we broke up cause throughout a year long distance (2 hr drive)relationship, she came to visit a dozen times, I went to visit exactly twice. I called her maybe once every 3-4 days and took more than a day to return calls. I liked her a lot, I really did, but I was really busy.
After the breakup there was a brief flirtation with friendship, but I told her I wasn't interested in a friend. I'm at the bar, I've had a couple. I'm very boyish-looking, often mistaken for 19 or 20, I'm actually 24. I'm feeling good, I'm lookin good, I got a day or two of shag carpet on my face. Got khakis, black shoes, a white long sleeve t-shirt and a blue Varsity t-shirt on top, Messy but clean hair. Very Brad Pitt. So I see her hanging out with an old friend of mine (she's now dating his best friend). She's across the table from him, didn't look like they were particularly close, I didn't notice her until she called out my name. I smiled "hi" and turned around to sit with my friends who conveniently were one table over. I get a tap on the shoulder. It's her. She looks fantastic. Wow. She leans in for the usual cheek-kiss and light hug. "How's work?" "Great. You're almost done school... You're going to miss it eh?" "Yeah I'll miss it so much" She's really nervous. Playing with her hair, she's got that killer smile that (when I actually was with her) knocked my fuckin socks off. "But you're going to med school" (her dream was to be a pediatrician) "No, actually dental school" "why?" "I was too scared to write my MCAT" "Oh, it's okay, you'll hang out with all the med school rejects" A brief moment. She goes "Well nice to see you" "Yeah!" We left 5 minutes later. I didn't think much at the time, but now I'm thinking about her. What's my move?

Re: I suck with girls
sort of implying she was a reject? I dunno man, maybe you should oplogize for that and try to go from there. If you like her, just [censored] tell her.

Re: I suck with girls
what would i do? I would stop drinking at bars and start drinking alone at home. But then i also suck with girls.
If i planned it out, i would "run" into her again, but would not call her directly. I might also "run" into the guy she is now dating, but that would depend upon how good my car insurance was.

Re: I suck with girls
You need to go for it. Personally I think you should just call her and be direct and tell her you want to get back together. If she is very nervous like you said, I would take that as a sign that she really likes you.
Sly PS. Your med school reject comment wasnt too smooth.... but I don't think that should matter I am sure she won't hold it against you.

Re: I suck with girls
I wasn't looking for a laugh.
I am generally a jackass. I bust on girls a lot. I make fun of them and they love it. But with an ex who I'm sure was dealing with a lot of emotion, let alone the amount of courage she had to muster just to come over and talk to me, it might have been tough for her.
