So I’m in kind of a weird situation and could use some advice.

A while ago I was supposed to go on a date with this girl I met online. She’s really attractive and things seemed promising, but she canceled super last minute because she was also seeing another guy and didn’t want things to get too weird. I was like “whatever, that’s online dating,” a bit disappointing but I didn’t care too much.

Fast forward to a music festival. This random girl joined our group and she was all over me, super chatty, said I was really fun, etc. (Not romantically cause she was going with a friend of mine) After a while, one of my friends tells me: “Dude, that’s the sister of the girl you were supposed to go on a date with.” Like… what are the odds?

Then it got even crazier: the sister herself told me she wants to set me up with her sibling. She literally said I’d be way more her type, that the guy she’s currently dating is a loser, and that she’s going to make sure her sister gives me a chance. She even joked like: “You’ll be my brother-in-law soon.” I was just standing there like… wtf is happening.

Now I’m stuck. Part of me thinks: maybe I should shoot my shot and text the original girl again, because opportunities like this don’t just come around. But another part of me really doesn’t feel like hearing “nah, not interested” again.

So Reddit, what would you do in my shoes?

  2. Wait for the sister to do her thing. Depending on their relationship, she might have some pull. And she can also vouch for you some.

  4. It’s a music festival, you sure her sister wasn’t on something that was making her extra friendly, lol?

    Kind of a shitty thing to do to the guy she’s currently dating to just come in and intrude. If she leaves him that’s not exactly the best sign for you either, what’s to stop her from just leaving you when her sister finds someone else at a music festival? She brushed you off because she was seeing someone too.

    If you’re okay taking the risk and hurting the guy she’s seeing, then go for it, she’s obviously attracted to you enough to book a date. For me it’s a no simply for the fact she brushed you off though.

  5. Yeah, I’d wait for her sister to do her thing. But that doesn’t mean you should stop seeing and talking to other wonen either.

    What a weird (but not bad) situation, you’re playing with house money.

  6. So let me get this straight. A woman who was already dating someone else and said so when you and her were going to go out on a date, cancels said date explaining why and you “move on” only to have the sister of said woman say that the guy she is STILL dating is a loser and she wants to set you up with her after she…what…breaks them up? Wow. Okay.

    And you’re considering this why?

  7. Wait for her sister to set it up but there’s really no downside to just go on a date and see how it goes

  9. I’d just text her on the sly and be like, “Hey XXX, I ran into your sister at the Duran Duran concert! We talked about you!” Then I’d leave it at that. Then let the sister work her magic
