I went on a singles holiday last week 15 women and 12 men age range 50-70
cheers
everyone mixed well and seemed to get on together
handshake

there was a lady there I really liked and she seemed to be giving me the right signals
i.e.
plenty of eye contact
sitting close to me all the time
laughing at my jokes
even a couple of winks
so I asked her if she would like to go for a meal with me ??
she said well I`d rather stay with the group
didn`t feel good at all never mind
no good at all for confidence
dunno confused

so what signs do we look for ladies or is it all just a waste of time and wishful thinking

Based just on the details you provided here, it looks like you did not wait to get to know her a little better. I think she used good judgment in staying with the group in a strange place. She may have questioned your motives (no matter how innocent) in trying to get her away from the group. Perhaps asking to contact her after the trip was over might have been a nice gesture.dunno


Personally I'd go for the free meal laugh burger drink pouring

Well she came and talked to me one to one on a couple of occasions and Telling me about her situation and asking about mine and I did wait until until the fifth day of holiday before asking
And the signals seemed pretty strong

If I would had been her I would had chosen to remain with the group too.


As felix mentioned it would had been a nice gesture to maybe exchanging phone numbers.

Like you describe it and her, and if I would have been her, I would have said yes and been happy to go out with you. Hm. It is sometimes so hard to judge how much attention people need until they can relax and say yes to others.

Why give out misleading signals then and the restaurant was just across the road last thing I'd want is for someone to feel unsafe

I'm obviously on the wrong wavelength perhaps it's time to give up live the single life from now on

thumbs up I agree with what Felix said(sigh laugh ), sounds
like she was still a little apprehensive, and feels more comfortable in the group.wave Still worth pursuing, I think a little more time is needed. (as if I am an expert on dating)laugh

What you say about you not wanting someone to feel unsafe is fine but in today's world a neither man or woman can't be to cautious.

I doubt if I would had winked at you which to me would be sometimes to some people as flirting or maybe she was just being friendly. I don't know.

I sure wouldn't just give up.

Actually I think she overdid the signals just a tad. Sounds to me like she was game playing a bit. As you said the restaurant was only across the road, it was only a meal in a public place and you had been talking to her for 5 days. But I wouldn't worry about it or read too much into it.
If you want to, give her your number if you're still interested and can get in touch with her and put the ball in her court. If nothing happens in 3 days, NEXT!!!! grin

We all put our name and email address on a sheet of paper before we left and photo copied it for everyone so ball in her court won't hold my breathe
