Here are some entertaining American interpretations and definitions of the slang I heard used while traveling abroad in the French Alps. Warning, it makes Americans seem really lame…

- Alexandra FriedmanYou didn't do anything wrong and I love that you ignored his text...sounds like an annoying text and pretty late to be texting. I would respond the next day around late morning...10:30 or so. Say, "Hey There! I was asleep when you texted." Hopefully he gets the hint...He should text and ask you out. If he is just annoying and conversational...either ignore him or tell him to call you later. He seems like a last minute guy...Don't let him do that. He should ask you in advance. If he doesn't, let him go. You are considerate of your time and schedule...So don't change that for a man. Good luck...You deserve an amazing love where you feel honored. Wait for it.

- Emily smithHi Alexandria, so last weekend a really cute guy came into my work and i went up to start talking to him because that was my job as a sales person. We both found out we were both from San Diego and I told him about this event that was happening on cinco de mayo. He asked for my number and so I gave it to him. We had small conversation the next couple of days and he then said he wasn't going to make it on time to come to that event on cinco de mayo. I kind of lost interest and then on the day of cinco de mayo he says he came back early from his trip from San Diego that weekend and wanted to know if i still wanted to go out. He picked me up, paid for the tickets, parking, and drinks. He seemed like he was really interested because he kept on asking so many questions to get to know me. It was so many questions that now Im questioning myself if I told him too much because we started getting into the conversation about exes and the past. He also had mentioned hes never been in a long term relationship longer than 3 months and to me that sounds like a red flag because hes already 26. He would make plans with me for future dates and held my hand in the car ride home. He was a gentleman having to open doors, push in my seat for me and when it started to rain he would pull his jacket above my head so i wouldn't get wet. He walked me out to my front door and gave me a hug and a kiss telling me he would want to see me again. The next day i don't hear from him at all and then I get a txt around 11pm saying "what uuup." I ignored because i thought he was texting me pretty late and today i continued to ignore him. Haven't heard from him still. Is there anything I did wrong?
- Alexandra FriedmanHey Katie, sorry for the delay. The rules ALWAYS apply. Otherwise, he will treat you like a friend...You need to change up the vibe and allow him to court you. Good luck!
- KatieWhat if you were friends first? I.e. already friends on facebook/twitter, already hung out a bit before the first official date. Do the rules alter at all in this situation?
- Alexandra FriedmanNope. Kiss or not, if he likes you, no matter what his feelings are about online dating, he WILL call. Move on. With the next gent, challenge yourself to be more in touch with your feminine energy. Go get 'em! Sent from an iPhone because it makes me look cool.
