hi everyone.
Ok im sorry that i feel the need to post a thread about this, but I usually get helpful and honest advice from the people on here. So ok, here is my story- I was catching up with someone that i was speaking to online and we were filling eachother in on what we have been up to recently. So i told her that i have just came back from vacation, and in her next email she wrote '' i would enjoy a vacation with you.''
I didnt know how to respond to that- it was a nice gesture and inside i was thinking ''wow, really? hmmm'' but i have not sent her a message back yet. How should i respond?
If this is just kind of a casual acquaintance, maybe she is hinting around, or maybe it's a compliment or whatever, I guess if someone randomly said that to me, I'd just say something like, "oh you're so nice, thanks" and keep talking about something else.
could be she likes you so far and wants to check you out close up..depends on how you would feel about a vacation with her...you can go on vacation and get seperate rooms and make it a friend type thing, why not..men and women can be friends...you should ask her where she wants to go and what type vacation..see where she goes with that... after a while ask her about room arrangements...if you don't want to go anywhere with her, say thanks, but no thanks...
oh and if you are interested, maybe a short weekend trip would be best in case it doesn't work out
Maybe she wants to go on a vacation with someone? Just go! But get different rooms.
I would not read too much into it.
im not really reading much into it, other than that they were nice words. I met her on MySpace. I like this girl though, but i dont want her to think that i am not interested in her because i am- i think about her often and at random times and my ''friendship'' with her feels important to me and im hopeful about it. Realistically though it still feels like we are in the initial stages of getting to know eachother. I have not asked her where she wants this to go between us? I would like to at least speak to her on the phone as well, and hopefully meet her in person, but she may not want the same things and may just want to stay just online friends. Im not sure, because sometimes it feels like i make more of an effort to keep in contact than she does. She would send me a message and i will get back to her the same day. Sometimes i send her a message and i dont hear from her in like three/four days- sometimes a week.
How you respond depends on how you feel about her and the circumstances of your situation. If she's a possible romantic interest, then she's telling you she'd be inclined to accept your invitation for a 'date' or, if you're separated by miles, a little vacation to get to know each other in person.
Well if you have not even gone as far as phone chat..You do not know her enough to REALLY like her. Just have fun and think of it as a vacation witha friend. Overthinking won't give you control to get what you want. If its going to happen, it will. If its not, its not. You can't really tell until you meet the person in the flesh ya know. There is just something that changes with that. (in my experience anyway)

Yes, you are right. The only thing is, that i cant financially afford another vacation at the moment. Should i just say ''thank you, i would enjoy a vaction with you too.''
Is that too basic and not thoughtful enough?
