These girls (30's) at my job recommended me girl I should go out with cause they say we act just alike and we are cute and funny together.
So I'm like cool, they gave me her number and we chat it up. Fine. All good and well until I started feel I'm getting way more info out of her friends than her being open.
She got son, got job, go AA meetings, only see her son on weekends, more stuff.
Needless to say I guess why she texting late or go for bout 3 days without us texting. I'd wish said something but oh well. So I asked her out and she was cool with it. Sent her text and haven't heard from her in a week. Then this week she text me "hi, how are you."
I feel uninterested, i didn't answer, and don't want to answer. My problem is telling grown folks what should be doing. Not sure how go bout this?

As a general rule of thumb you should never engage with coworkers like that to begin with. Even moreso considering the metoo bullshit and the sexual harassment laws. The other part is if something goes bad there's going to be drama in the workplace.
That being said I think you got lucky in this regard. You don't have to have a relationship with every girl you get down with, having a partner for casual sex is fine as long as you let her know that you don't want anything serious and monogamous.
Nobody's going to be perfect.
Girl I'm texting, we don't work together.
I don’t really get that last line. Telling grown folks what should be doing, what’s tentatively mean?
*what’s that mean*, I don't know how the hell it corrected to tentatively lol
I was saying, why should tell her how text, when to text? When all have do be open, be communicative, and so on. Should text her aye been a week what's up. Lol
Ohh okay, gotcha lol. So on one hand I wanna be mindful of the fact that she’s a parent, I know her schedule probably gets crazy. BUT that’s not an excuse to say nothing in the entire week. I wonder if maybe she was thinking you’d reach out, like being more persistent. Still that’s not excuse, and she should communicate this to you if that is how she’s feeling. So my verdict is that if you are interested in her, it’s worth having a conversation about this. I agree, you should not have to tell her how to text, but that wouldn’t be the case. You should get an idea of what’s her logic behind this and set boundaries, like it’s not cool for this much time to pass without a word (which she could also throw back at you, since communication works both ways). Or if you aren’t interested anymore like you said, then don’t bother responding. The only problem would be if her friends call you out since they set you two up. Sometimes pairings don’t work though, and they should consider that as well.
I searched my feelings for bit, nah, not worth chasing, we are grown, if start thus stuff early on and I have show you boundaries that is as basic as wiping your own arse. Then I figure this might be problem down the road. Jus going let the girls know she fucked up, and I'm not texting the girl.
Thanks for your help!
