Our time didn't match

Hi,

How can I say the following?

When I had some free time, she didn't, so we couldn't see each other.

And when she had some free time, my schedule didn't allow.

---- Can we say, "I tried to see her, but our timing was off for both of us"?

Or, "Our mutual time didn't allow us to see each other"?

In Korean, we say "Our time didn't match". or "Our time didn't coincide", etc...

What will be the exact equivalent translation in English?

pructus I tried to see her, but our timing was off for both of us I tried to see her, but our timing was always off. pructus Our time didn't coincide Our schedules never coincided. I think those two are the most common ways of saying it in English.
