So I went out with a girl a month or two ago and we had a great time. The next day she mentioned she wanted to get together again and see where things go.

She works a second job which tends to take up a lot of her time. A lot of nights and weekends so it’s been hard to see her again. However she still seems interested in me and seems like she wants to see me again and get to know me more but I can’t seem to get together with her again because of her schedule. She also canceled on me a couple of times because of her second job schedule.

One day I called her out for not making time for me and just explained that if you want people in your life it takes time and effort and you have to make that time a priority if you’re actually interested. She understood what I was saying and agreed with me. She also said she wanted to make a commitment to get to know me more and see where things go.

Fast forward and I still haven’t had a chance to see her again.

We also don’t text much. I’ll go a few days to a week without hearing from her. Mostly I think she’s just busy and forgets to get back to me. I don’t always want to be the one starting a text and trying to get in touch with her though. When we do talk it could be one message back and forth which again she seems to show interest in me but then I’ll respond and not hear back.

One day I asked if she just doesn’t like to text but she said she genuinely enjoys my messages and just gets busy and forgets to respond.

I don’t really know what to think. On one hand I feel like she is interested and just has a crazy schedule but on the other hand idk if I’m wasting my time.

After the first date I felt like she seemed perfect and checked all the boxes for what I was looking for. So I’m genuinely interested and excited about her but idk what to do.

What do you think, should I wait and see if she reaches out to me first?

Is it ok that I keep reaching out to her first to try and keep things moving with her?

Do you recommend something else?

Appreciate the help.
