"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Hey guys, I was just having this conversation and I was laughing my ass off the whole time. I thought you guys might get a kick out of it, too. Also, she's a textbook example of a sh1t tester -- you can see that here and see how I dealt with it.

Olivia

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

It was a good read Ice. The text convo is pretty good and it seems to me your having fun and thats what its about right.

Maybe that one time you said "don't" was slightly AFC of you, but don't worry about it.

Well I hate to say this Ice,but it appears that you may have just become the lastest victim of the friendzone as DJ Hero mentioned.


As I read over your convos with this girl,I kept waiting and waiting and waiting for SOMETHING out of you that would create some type of interest in her....and not only that,but I was waiting for you to show your interest as well.


It never happened.


That line you gave her about you being single when she asked you about hooking up with someone else's boyfriend.....ok I admit,that was a good comeback :up:. It was good,but it was weak. It was almost as if you were trying to toss some hint at her hoping she'd get it and be interested.



I assume you'd like to date this girl. Well if so,then why didn't THAT SUBJECT ever come up?


You talked about pancakes at IHOP,gangster music,itunes,etc,but nothing about YOU and HER.



She even talked to YOU about hooking up with some other guy.

Now listen:when a girl talks DIRECTLY TO YOU about having interest in someone else,your goose is cooked my friend.



You see the type of guy she's interest in. She HERSELF said that this guy has cheated on his girlfriend "like 239309 million times",and now here she is CONSIDERING being the NEXT GIRL he cheats with.



I swear women are a trip. She just got finished saying how good and sweet this guy's girlfriend is and how she can't see why he'd cheat on her ALL THE WHILE thinking about cheating with the dude herself,and saying that she hasn't done anything with him....YET.



The whole conversation about her and this OTHER guy should NEVER HAVE EVEN CAME UP.



She basically asked for your advice concerning hooking up with other guys!
She was trying to get you to HELP HER OUT in her effort to fool around with another man.


That's not what you want. You want her to want to "hook up" with YOU. If she's talking to you about other guys,hey...I'm sorry man,but that's friendzone.

Ice, did you copy and paste text from your phone? Because it took me a long while to know exactly who is saying what. Make it more clean next time. eg
Ice: "....."
Olivia:"..................".
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

hmm...ok. I interpreted it another way. She has already agreed we'll go to IHOP in september (she lives far away but boards at my school, earliest we can do it). She was like "I've never been to IHOP before" which I saw as a total opening since it came out of the blue basically, and I said, "I'll take you." That might, unfortunately, be a little like Maxtro's "75% sure" business... but I thought it was pretty solid.

When she brought up the other guy... I was pretty sure he didn't exist. She was very careful to say:

a) DONT TELL ANYONE ABOUT THIS
b) he doesn't go to our school
c) she hasn't done anything yet

it seemed to me like she was asking me to render an imaginary verdict, so she could measure my interest. That's what I saw as a "sh1t test".

I tried to deflect it...make a comeback...say I wasn't the person to talk to...eventually I rendered my verdict: "don't" and she immediately said "okay, I won't". To me that seems like she was waiting with baited breath to see if I would indirectly "declare my interest for her."

What do you think about that?

EDIT: I also thought she was trying to make me jealous

The other guy does exist and you're clearly in the friend zone, and you're seeing attraction where there clearly isn't any. There will be some type of flirting; there was none here. At all.

Follow DJ Hero's advice or if she has cute friends, use her to meet them.

You should try to spin almost every text with a girl as her flirting with you, or tease her about something, or make some kind of implication about the two of you hooking up, make it sexual. Keep most of your texts fairly short. And when you meet up with her in person, be the same person you were in the texts. I'm not an expert with women but flirting through text was the first thing I learned; you don't have to worry about body language or tone or reacting immediately and you have some room to be creative and set up role-playing and whatnot.

TL;DR!

But since you PM'd me about this, here's what I found. Judge nismo-4 will list your guilty sentences before he renders his verdict for your ass.

1. You didn't put any sex talk in there. FRIEND!
2. You interviewed her. BORING!
3. You told her everything that happened in your day. NO MYSTERY!
4. You didn't flirt. PLAYING THE GIRL'S ROLE!

There is no attraction here at all so you will be flown to Neversex, Delaware. While there, you need to become more flirty, use push-pull techniques, and become more mysterious. Work on those things because you are in the friendzone.

Thanks for requesting me to take this case, but your princess is in another castle!

Case closed.

So she agreed to "go out" with you,or that is go to the IHOP with you in a month,really more like a month and a half from when the plan was made.


So what do you think she'll be doing in the meanwhile until September arrives?


My guess is that she'll be hanging around that other guy,the one she IS CONSIDERING "hooking up" with. If you'll remember,she said that this guy was the one initiating the two of the fooling around.

Well how can he do that unless she keeps being around him?



Ice882 said:

Well the comment she made about never being to Ihop before could be viewed as an IOI,however,it really depends on the context in which it was used. It could have been an IOI,or she could just simply had never been to Ihop like she said.



Ice882 said:
When she brought up the other guy... I was pretty sure he didn't exist.
Uhhhh....I think you're kinda reach out too far with this one Ice. I don't think she was making this up. You say she's an HB9,right? Well I'm sure there's somebody else trying to date her other than you.


Ice882 said:
She was very careful to say:

a) DONT TELL ANYONE ABOUT THIS
The "DONT TELL ANYONE ABOUT THIS" comment is simple.....

She doesn't want to look like a slvt. She was talking to you about possibly fooling around with ANOTHER GIRL'S BOYFRIEND. If a girl does that,and she's KNOWN to do that sort of thing,she'll be labeled a "ho",or a slvt.


She didnt want you to tell anyone about that because if it gets out that she was even considering doing it,she'll be looked down upon. That,plus she doesn't want to hurt this guy's girlfriend.


She still wants to sleep with the dude,she just wants everything to be on the down-low in secret so the girlfriend won't get hurt,and she doesn't get label a tramp.



Ice882 said:
it seemed to me like she was asking me to render an imaginary verdict, so she could measure my interest. That's what I saw as a "sh1t test".
Uhh...no Ice,you might want to go back and review that chapter covering "sh1t tests".



If you had CLEARLY made your interest known to her,then she might had started tossing out some tests to you,but not now.


I didn't see her talking about this other guy as a test at all. To me,it seemed more like a girl gossiping and confiding with one of her girlfriends.

Ice882 said:
I tried to deflect it...make a comeback...say I wasn't the person to talk to...
Yeah,I noticed that. I could tell that you noticed that things were headed in the wrong direction,and that you attempted to get things back on track.


The problem is this though.....

When you see that things are headed in the wrong direction,usually when you finally notice this,it's TOO LATE.



It's like starting out on a long trip,and you drive 50 miles before you noticed that you're headed the wrong way. So you stop and turn around.


The good news is that you're now headed in the right direction.
That bad news is that you have to travel 50 miles just to start at the beginning.


You have to go 50 miles just to start from zero. This other guy is already MILES ahead. You're talking about Ihop and round pancakes,while this other guy is INITIATING SEX with this girl.



Ice882 said:
eventually I rendered my verdict: "don't" and she immediately said "okay, I won't".
And you think she won't simply because she told you she wouldn't?

Come on now Ice,you've been here long enough to know better than that.


It's not like the guy showed interest in her once,then it was over with. If that were the case,she wouldn't have been walking around mulling this over in her mind and asking others (you) for your opinions.


And if he's shown interest in her more than once,then SHE'S BEEN AROUND HIM more than once.



Ice882 said:
To me that seems like she was waiting with baited breath to see if I would indirectly "declare my interest for her."
This is called "wishful thinking". I'm not saying she's not interested,I'm just saying that you need some concrete evidence before you make assumptions like that.

Ice882 said:
EDIT: I also thought she was trying to make me jealous
Why?

If she was trying to make you jealous and it had worked,she wouldn't date you. If you're expressing emotions to a girl that you haven't even had a single date with yet,it's game over.


Like you said,we'll see,but at the moment,all signs point to you being friiendzoned.

I confirmed that it was a date and she has responded playfully/positively to sexual innuendo.
