No, most people like talking to some random person for at least 2 or 3 hours a day.

Generic,

Just ask her to send you a schedule of when she's going to play League every day and chat her the rest of the day.

Ask yourself if you really want to be involved with a gamer.

So now I'm wondering what I should do about this. I'm thinking either option 1: talk to her about in the lines of hey, I really enjoy chatting with you and I understand the need for gaming, but I'd really appreciate an hour of your time to chat and then you can play League. Or option 2: Basically stop talking to her as it seems she's not very interested in me and if she chats me up and ask how I've been and/or why I haven't chatted with her say something like I didn't want to disturb you from League. Any other suggestions/recommendations?

An hour is super long. Have you asked her out yet? Not doing so in under an hour is a mistake.

Clark,

Slow down, buddy. He doesn't even have her League-playing schedule yet!

Seems pretty normal to me. League games take a while, up to an hour, from what I know. She's probably also chatting with the people on the game. Not the most condusive to maintaining a conversation.

I don't really see the problem, if she does eventually respond. Aren't more immediate responses more fitting for in-person talk? Texting always seemed like a side activity to something else I'm doing anyway.

My sense is that generic is irked that the girl is stopping responding mid conversation without telling him to play a game. If I were you generic, I would go with option 2. You've made it fairly clear that you're interested in getting to know her more, but she doesn't seem to return that interest to you.

Stop being a pussy waiting for girls to text you. Basically shows you have nothing else going on, girls know/can feel this and don't like it. You don't have to play super games, but don't freak out if someone you don't really know stops texting after an hour but eventually re-responds. Before going on a date, I think over-texting is really stupid to begin with. Get them on the date to see if they are worth your time.

Maybe I have a different idea of how texting works, but I wouldn't take someone pausing a conversation to play a game as showing disinterest. They got back to him, right? Without some specific context it just doesn't seem that offensive (to me). If anything I'd go with option 2 in a purely joking fashion. Generic, I'm not sure you have any real place to ask for her undivided attention. Again, this is texting. It doesn't sound like you've even met her.

Am I missing something?

Let me clarify to you guys. This wasn't texting, we were using a chatting/IMing program. And 2ndly, she doesn't respond eventually once she's done for the night. I have to restart the IMing the next night when I get home from work. But maybe I'm making a big deal out of nothing, as long as she's responding to my chats then everything is good? For what it's worth, I don't want to rush meeting her as I had a recent acne outbreak.

Lol...no shot. Like no shot it's real, and if it happens to be, you have no shot at this working out in a way you want it to.

Just don't be the one to restart the conversation. That'll give you a much better idea of where you're at.

Ok I have a bartender friend thats been interested in me for a long time. We've messed around a little here and there but I just don't like her like that. She's pretty but something about her personality puts me off. I like being friends with her because we have fun drinking. She's been pressing me lately. She drunk texted me last Friday after I left the bar and asked what I would have said if she asked me to go home with her. We were all joking about drunk texting earlier in the night. I didn't know what to say do I just said be careful what you ask for.

Anyway she brings this hot friend to the bar. We chat through out the night and I'm getting this vibe that maybe she's interested. I'm kind of stuck though because I don't know how to tell my friend I'm not interested in her and then ask her friend out.

Does asking her (the girl i like not bartender) out make me look like a DB in her eyes because it hurts her friend? What's my play?

Who cares what she thinks, just do it. She'll want you even more.

"She's pretty but something about her personality puts me off" - that sounds like someone I would want to have sex with, but not be friends with.

Anyway though, you've been honest about your intentions, so don't know why she should mind.

Ask the bartender for "permission" to go after her friend. You're not really asking of course but it will give you the chance to tell her your not into her and at the same time you won't come across as insensitive to the girl you want to pursue

But she also mentioned a few guys she went out with a few times that were still in love with her (but not vice versa), including a guy she's planning on moving in with (as friends because she wants to live closer to the city and not alone)...
