Well, I'm not very experienced and my main goal on the outside was just try to get better. Unfortunately it seems it'll be easier for me to work on single girls for now because psychologically it helps me a bit because I know they're open to me. I mean, I guess you could say she kept wanting to see me because she wanted me to take her, but she also could have been doing it because she wanted to keep hanging out as friends. I don't know, it just seemed too much to deduce and it felt like it would have been better to focus on single girls for now.Poop1337 said:
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

"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.
She paid for her own stuff. Why? No way I'm paying if I don't even know what's up.Robert28 said:Question. When ya'll went out, who paid? I mean did she pay for her own stuff or expect you to pay or you offered to pay and she let you or what?
I find it is to our own advantage to keep girls around. Sometimes I feel the negative objectification of woman here can reach a breaking point but they do have their pro's also. First off - you are expanding your social circle. If you become close enough while not invested, you get invited to parties where you meet more woman etc etc. Secondly they provide a really good buffer when you break up with an ex until you can find plates to spin. Thirdly if you play your cards right, you can be 'that' friend she'd hook up with when drunk - no strings attached.
Friend zone is only a negative connotation attached to a stigma men initially put themselves in. Don't burn bridges, build them.

Well if she's paying for herself everytime then I wouldn't next her....yet. That doesn't mean don't pursue other girls, do that! Call her up and just say you were having a rough day the day you told her you couldn't be friends with her. DONT APOLOGIZE THOUGH! Just be like "About what I told you the other day, I was having a rough day and had a lot going on. We can go do something sometime if you still want to." You aren't admitting you were wrong, and you aren't accepting her offer of being a friend.Siragoos said:She paid for her own stuff. Why? No way I'm paying if I don't even know what's up.
Next time you do go out with her, look at other girls. Make it obvious you're looking at other girls. Jealousy is a drug to women. It stirs emotions in them like you wouldn't believe. You might not think you can make her jealous, but you can, easily. Then once you see she's jealous, try some kino again. This time maybe she will finally reciprocate.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Couple things, in the past I have tried to instill some jealousy by making it known I couldn't meet up with her because I had a "date" or I couldn't see such-and-such movie because i was seeing it with someone else. but that didn't make her seem jealous. She seemed happy for me actually.Robert28 said:Well if she's paying for herself everytime then I wouldn't next her....yet. That doesn't mean don't pursue other girls, do that!

Now, here's the thing. It's been 6 weeks or so since I told her that. Wouldn't calling her up now and tell her that show that I've been doing nothing but dwelling on that when I should've been out talking to other women?
Also, I don't know if I mentioned this above or not, but after I told her that, we had plans to initially go somewhere that we had tickets for. Near that day, I told her (remember, this is after I told her the friends thing) she should still go. She acted all confused and hurt about the friends thing, but said that she'll go. Then she flaked. Haven't heard from her since, so I don't know if I should be the one to break the silence. Seems like ball would be in her court? Then again, I did say the whole friends thing.
I like where you're going with this, though. Enough time has probably passed where she won't deny me out of anger. And if she does, well, that means she didn't really want to be friends in the first place.
