I really hope you don't walk around asking out girls who have boyfriends.

SHE HAS A BOYFRIEND. She was fvcking writing his name over and over on her notebook (which given is very juvenile and may just be superficial, but still, she's not dumping this guy any time soon). Which is why I suggest attempting to kick it in the friend zone for a while, IF you have the patience.

"We'll, were going to have to find you someone then." DOES NOT = "SCREW ME NOW! OH YES I WANT YOU!". If you think that then I feel extremely sorry for you (I'm glad the OP had the sense to not think that). Girls love being matchmakers, in fact, she'll probably try to hook you up with her friend if she doesn't have a boyfriend.

What would be good for you to figure out is how long she's been with this Bret guy.

I have found through the years that women are predatory with each other and tend to like men that are with other women. Some think to themselves,"that woman must of found something really good about him (money, penis, whatever)". Use the girls to go out with and I guarantee that other chicks will hit up on you. And when this happens this chick you like will try to get you too, unless of course she really likes this other guy. Don't over think it, just enjoy being young and single for now. :beer:

You've got a lot to learn about women. No single woman, is ever single. All women have a "boyfriend" or someone they are dating, or someone they have "been with" lately. You can never date a truely single woman.

I don't know if it's explicitly explained, but the ladder theory only applies to people who like to f*ck. For girls who want a real relationship, much of it is false. Such as:
A girl says any of the following to you:

"You're like a brother to me"
"You're like a big teddy bear"
"I feel like I can talk to you about anything"
"You're so nice"
"Can you help me with my homework"

Ladder Theory Explanation: You are on the friends ladder. So Sorry.
Most of those are excuses to want to be with the guy longer and/or build a good foundation for their life together.

Sorry, I missed the part where you have a point that refutes anything I said.

I'd definately go with that.

Good luck Mark.

If you don't want to be friends don't. Just hang out with your other friends. Just don't be a d!ck to them. Just be 'nice'.

She and her friend would always talk to me in class and I would talk to her(just about everyday stuff). Because she did talk to me so much, I thought she might be interested in me so I was pretty happy at the time. At the time, I didn't want to ask her out because I didn't know too much about her(whether or not she was in a relationship) so my plan was to wait for her to bring up whether or not she was in a relationship or not. About 3 weeks ago, I guess she got bored in class and started writing little "Judy(her name) loves Brett" noted all over her notepad, so I was pretty down after I saw that, but she would continue to talk to me alot so I was thinking maybe I still have a shot at her(I was thinking maybe she was unhappy with her current bf because she would talk to me in class so much so I thought she was interested). Fast forward to today, teacher doesn't show up so all 3 of us(me, her, and her friend) decide to go to the cafeteria. They ask me if I have a gf, I say not right now, and tell them I just got out of a relationship 7 months(to give you an idea, I was with my ex for 3 years and I never once felt the same way I do for this girl now) ago because my ex-gf moved away. Then after that, the girl that I like uttered the 10 words I did not want to hear:



"Well, were going to have to find you someone then."




I feel like such an idiot now. I guess she just wanted to be "friends" all along. I have enough friends as it is, I'm not really looking to make anymore right now. The worst part of it is I'm in a group project with them so were gonna have to start working together soon. Since they don't like the class, I've decided I'm just gonna do the entire thing myself and slap thier names on it. I really don't want to talk to either of them anymore because the more I do, the more depressed about this whole thing I'm gonna get. This really sucks.

i hate how girls always manage to get this stuff done

*Sigh* You're so much of a whimp. You coulda been like "I'd prefer you" or somethin like that as a fleeting comment, which would in reality plant the seed that you like her. You could seriously talk about it later if you get the balls. You need to not whimp out, and you just need to go for it. It's not gonna come around again. Go for it.

This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired."

:thumbsup: I can't believe how close to the truth that analogy is.

I was in the same situation and the girl said the same thing to me. Next thing I know we had sex in her car.
