I met a girl while on travel

I couldn’t find an answer to this question and so I decided to ask here. This past week I went down to TN for buisness travel. It was a great time and all, but there was this girl I met that I’m a bit interested in. The trip was a tradeshow and so I got to meet other people from my coorporation that work in other parts of the nation/world. This girl and I work in the same coorporation; however, she lives in VA and I live in MA (work in NH).

We were joking around throughout the week and seemed to be having a good time. I got her phone number near the end so we could meet up with others and go to downtown Nashiville for the last night. She wasn’t able to make it out, though, and that could be one sign (keep in mind I’m not good at picking up signs). She was being very conservative during the trip since we were with all of our bosses and big-wigs, but I just found it to be a great time to socialize and become known throughout the company.

So at the end, I facebook friended here and just sent her a friendly wall post. It’s been nothing more then that.

My question to people around here is if there is a way to pursue this or if I’m looking into something that isn’t even there.

During the days at the tradeshow and the evenings at parties, she seemed to have a good time with me around. When I mentioned about going downtown, she offered her number to me, so I didn’t even ask for it. But the end of the story is that she has been on my mind this past week and I’m just looking for advice.

Has this happened to any travelers? Is it worthwhile to pursue and if so how would you go about it? Also, even if you haven’t gone through this, what do you think you would do?

I appreciate the time you took to read this and all. You folks at help.com have always provided great responses. Thanks!

Well, being Canadian, I’m not as well versed in American geography as you. The whole northeast is a big jumble to me. How far is VA from MA? Could it be possible that she doesn’t want a long-distance relationship?

No harm in pursuing things a little. Why not chat with her online and see where things go from there?

Ah, well to give geographic perspective, it is 10 hours of distance I believe. So, a bit of a drive :P

well that could be it, IMHO. Maybe she just doesn’t think a long distance relationship will work?

This is possible. I agree with testing the water with an online chat. After all, facebook has a chat function these days. No harm in finding out, try just getting to know her abit that way. At least you’ve already met in person so it shouldn’t be weird. x
