Thanks everyone who has posted I must admit that I had a smile on my face while reading some of these stories.
When my friends said that I should have had another lunch I am pretty sure they ment that I should have left with her anyway and yes I now realise that I could have went and not had anything, just kept her company but she invited me to lunch so I didn't consider going as I had had lunch.
I would like to give a big hand to the girl in Silvervarg's story for being so persistant and then to Silvervarg for a successful end to the night dispite the misunderstandings.
1000Knives you got her number did you call back?
Scubasteve I am sure you tried to fix that for next time right?

Ages back I was getting on very well with somebody at a friend's house. Our host went off to the pub with all the other people, leaving us alone. I didn't press home the advantage because I thought our host would be offended. Nope. They'd given us some space so we could get on with it. After that, she went and told me that it woulld have been OK that night but not any more Though she was still friendly with me. I took her at her word and never tried anything again, even though one of my housemates said she definitely wanted me.

Still, I'm glad I missed that particular boat. The guy she ended up with lost her to another bloke because he kept going out a lot and spent a lot of their quiality time working on their house. She had an affair and then left him for the new guy. No decent interval, nothing. It could so easily have been me that she used like that.

I saw so much of myself in the OP's story. Such a classic Aspie goof.

^^^ OTOH, would you have wanted to be saddled with a cheating type of woman? I think you came out ahead in the long run!
