So I have this friend. He's married, only dated women in the 80s, and got married at a young age. He doesn't seem to have a grasp on the way modern women are, and seems blind to the majority of their manipulations/BS. In his mind nothing has changed with dating in the past 30 years.
There was a girl who he swore was in love with me, and she turned out to be a narcissistic attention wh0re who despite having a wedding in a few months, is still out chasing d**k. She asked him about me a couple times when I wasn't with him, and he took that as extreme interest. I knew her from a social group before that, thought she was okay, but this friend pressured me into trying to going after her. It took only a few long conversations and run ins with her to know for certain what she was.
He's into snobbish, high-maintenance, and slutty women. They're the types he's always talking about, and they tend to be the ones he'll try and steer me towards. He's also given some really s**t advice before, that would make anyone look like a giant creepy, borderline stalker, AFC. Until finally telling him to STFU about that girl who he thought loved me, he wouldn't shut up about her. He once told I should find out what neighborhood she lives in and drive around until I see her outside........he was serious too :crackup: With advice it seems sometimes he'll just want me to crash and burn like I don't know s**t about women and have no experience. Needless to say I don't follow his "advice" much, and he doesn't bring it up like he used too.
With a lot of the bad women he's wanted me to go after, I'll say why I don't want anything to do with them, and afterward he'll agree like he thought the same thing the whole time. But it seems he views these bad women as relationship material, pretty much all of the women who I think are actually good (VERY few and far between) he sees as boring.
There's a girl he's currently wanting me to go after. She seems nice, but I don't have much to go by. He said she asks about me when I'm not around, and in his eyes that translates to a girl being in love you. The last time I talked to her she asked me about my friend, so it just seems like her asking about people who aren't around is a way she tries to make conversation. Aside from that during the conversation I didn't sense much interest from her. We occasionally catch each other staring and that's it, it doesn't seem like there's anything there aside from mutual attraction. Also my friend brought up he talked to her in the parking lot and she was being driven by an orbiter. He brought it up like it was cool and no big deal, while I don't think it's a good sign.
This whole year has been something of a transitional period for me. I've been moving past some things that I didn't deal with when I should have, and have been working on improving many areas of my life. Not really looking for a relationship right now, but I'd be willing to make an exception if I met the girl.
It's the way this friend keeps bringing her up that has me wondering. Should I try anything?
