Spoiler Alert, click show to read:So some outside perspective would be appreciated. I"ve known a girl named Kim for several years. She also tourguided with the ski company I do in the winter, so I know her reasonably well. She"s fun times and we get along well. She dated another guide for the past 3-4 years, and they broke up several months back. He dumped her, not really sure the reasons why. I don"t really give two shits either way about him, we hung out on trips but I wouldn"t consider him much of a friend.
I"ve run in to Kim several times over the past few months, at first just coincidentally. We joked we were stalking each other. Prior to the Folk Fest a couple weeks back (sounds lame, but it"s actually a highlight of summer here, great beer gardens and good music) she had been texting me that she"d be coming, did I know anyone with tickets etc. We ended up meeting on the Saturday and spent a good portion of the time hanging out, but she was there with a dude that she said she wasn"t dating but just messing around with a bit, she laughed and said it was her rebound etc. He was a good guy actually, so I gave them space when the evening was getting late and he was getting touchy feely with her.
Since then we"ve been texting back and forth a bit. Last week she texted me on Wednesday and asked what I was doing for the weekend, I said I had plans but what"s up? She said she wanted to go somewhere for the weekend, maybe to BC. Like we"d go together or something. I said well great, I was going with a couple other people she knew (two other ski guides) to the mountains to downhill mountain bike and go do some whitewater rafting, and that she was welcome to join us. She asked if was just a guys thing, I said no that a couple of the guys girlfriends were coming as well (as far as I knew at the time). As it turns out all the other girls cancelled the day before, and I found out when the rest of the crew showed up late Friday night. I elected not to tell her, whoops.
So she showed up Saturday afternoon (she lives only a couple hours away and wasn"t planning on biking or rafting, just coming out for some drinks/hot tubbing) and of course immediately realized she was the only chick with 6 guys (3 of whom she knows well). She laughed but didn"t seem to care too much. She asked if all the beds were taken, which they were, but then was like "oh so you have the double bed in that room? Okay that"s cool". Alright I think, it"s on. Long story short many drinks were had along with some weed and perhaps other vitamins and minerals, most of the crew decided to head to the local bar at around midnight but she and I stayed behind. She says she"s tired and hops in to bed, I do as well, but I get shut down. My memory is very cloudy so I don"t really recall any of the conversation, just that she wasn"t going to mess around. Maybe some light cuddling, but I don"t think we even kissed.
We both get up early the next day to clean up the house we rented, we hug and she heads home. She texts me a bit about road construction delays on the highway, I text her at a gas stop how goddamn hot it is on a bike, she comments she"s tanning in a bikini and melting, I respond I"m picturing her all oiled up, and she sends me a picture of herself tanning (see below). That"s about the extent of things.
This past weekend and in previous texts she"s also asked me if I want to go camping next weekend and again in a couple weeks (both trips are with other mutual friends). So what"s the verdict? Just a girl looking for some attention or friends while going through a break-up? Or is she interested?
