Finally sent a message to Facebook Girl. She responded almost immediately and we had a nice conversation for a bit. I feel like the fact that she's interested in just shooting the shit even though I haven't seen her in three years is a really good sign.
She also told me that she prefers Skeletal Lamping to False Priest, Burst Apart to Hospice (because she "can't get past Putting the Dog To Sleep," a sentiment I share), and that she has a soft spot for the last songs on good albums. It's stupid how great this girl is.
Here is the story. I asked a girl to go on dinner, she said ok but then she reschedule by texting me "Would you be mad if we reschedule for Tuesday". I said no worries. It turns out her car is breaking down and she took it to the shop. Suddenly, the reschedule turned to a cancel dinner due to her car being in the shop. We normally google chat but today she was not there at all. I was kind of worried so I text her "Hey I didn't see you in g-chat today I hope you are ok (or maybe you just had a busy day)". She text me back telling me that her car is back from the shop and that she was very busy today. After a couple of lines I told her that my offer to dinner still stands and she tells me that she would like to go to dinner but just as friends". I am not gonna lie, it was kind of a disappointment but alas I wrote "of course". At least I know what I am getting into. In a way a feel more relax now (Well, that is what I keep telling myself).
I am very glad I don't have to deal with all of this dating stuff anymore, but I do sympathize with those who do. I think, for me, the key was forcing myself to be a little more friendly and up front with women. Also it helps to find someone who does something you genuinely find interesting, so you have built in things to talk about. Like, snag one who is a doctor or ventriloquist or juggles chainsaws. Probably not the latter because getting her on your life insurance policy would be problematic.

Dodged that bullet.
You are one of five people I know (myself included) that could turn a discussion about dating into a discussion about the merits of various of Montreal albums.
I'm not saying it's doomed just yet. Just that we haven't talked in a bit and I'm not sure why; my introvert shoulder angel (devil, more like) is all like, "It's because you're awkward, weird, and she hates you. Give up and spare your reputation."
Obviously, I'm not going to cave so easily, but damned if I don't want to.

Just chill dude, give her space. Go like, 5 days without messaging her. In the mean time go for a run. It helps

Even through the haze of depression and headache pain, I still feel really good about this.
Heh, at least I got to know her better
so yeah.
It only means that a most awesome girl will come ... eventually :P
