Girl seemed to like me but has just stopped texting

[user1488230122]

Me and a girl seemed to really hit it off and she told me to add her and after a flirty conversation she just stooped replying?

What's going on?

You really hit it off how? Had you actually met in person?

Gibe, jibe, jive
Gibe refers to a taunt or a derisive remark. It functions as both a verb (to taunt) and a noun (taunt). Jibe has a nautical use (relating to turning the sail to go on an opposite tack), but it’s most often used to mean agree or to be in accord. Jive refers to either jazz music, dancing, or nonsense talk, although it can sound old-fashioned or ironic in its senses unrelated to dance. It functions as both a noun (for the dance, music, or talk) and a verb (to engage in the dance, music, or talk).

HTH

Cara you had already made yourself look like a prat for pointing out spelling errors but you have compounded that by being wrong yourself

British English definition: HTH

cara 4 a GIRL with sounds quit brainy an all that, I fink u might Ave missed the point of the OP.

maybe she has some troubles

wtf, why are you asking a bunch of mums about your crush on a non-mum?

Think this thread is turning into a disgrace. Doesn't matter what problems people have they should feel welcome to post here

Cara

Surely you mean gybe?

(had to be done)

Cara, it's already been said by Bit but I'll reiterate - you're wrong.

HTH

I'm awaiting Carla's definition of a 'non-mum'. Op, seek RL advice - it ain't gonna happen here.

Cara, even. Whoops!

gibe1
or jibe (dʒaɪb )
verb

to make jeering or scoffing remarks (at); taunt noun

a derisive or provoking remark Collins English Dictionary. Copyright © HarperCollins Publishers

Gibe is preferable; the jibe version not so much.

I can only imagine the OP is thinking "What the FUCK?! Note to self - never ask Mumsnet for advice again"

I'm 28 and think of myself as a girl or a woman. Not a lady. Lady makes me feel old.

Au contraire.

I didn't think you could sound any more ridiculous than you already have Cara. But, au contraire, I was wrong.

I have never ever seen the word jibe (meaning tease or make a sneering remark) spelled with a g. None of the British based dictionaries I quickly googled suggest jibe with that definition should be spelled with a g. Neither does the old fashioned paper OED that I still, rather quaintly, refer to almost daily.

If I were you I'd take this as an indication that it is rude and just plain wanky to correct other MNers' spelling and / or grammar. Especially in such a ludicrously pompous manner.

Does anyone know where the exit is?

At least he didn't say cis-girl...

Or bay... Or is it bey? Baa? Where's Urban Dictionary when you need it? And why can't I accept I'm middle aged and no longer down with da kids?

1. The message was on FB and said "sent" for about a day then "delivered" but still not read.

1. I think we hit it off because 1. she made the first contact with a joke. 2. we had a good flowing conversation with another joke or two and 3. it ended with her telling me to find her on FB

1. Yes we do go to the same school and she's in the same class as a friend but (even though i've tried) i've never bumped into her before.

1. I am genuinely so sorry for having used the term "girl" but at lest now I know what a jibe is!

Thanks for the help, keep it coming!

For god's sake, some of you above really need a slap, so what if he's not a mum or she's not a mum; does it bloody matter, he's asking for advice not a slagging, grow up, he's probably more mature than most of you lot.

Give her another text, as has been said OP, she may genuinely forgot you text her back.

You don't need to be sorry OP for calling her a girl. Contact her again. Good luck

Yeah stop all the gibes for calling her a jirl

I like the OP.

He's still here after all that haha!!!
