is there anything wrong with caring? even with caring a lot?Originally posted by: dirtboy
Then he needs to learn how to stop caring. If he can't, then his problem will plague him forever.Originally posted by: thirtythree
but he does care...Originally posted by: dirtboy
Talk to them as if you don't care if they like you or want to go out with you. That way, if they turn you down... you don't care!
thats fine, but i can at least try. and I just want to know what path I should take, which will give me the best odds of getting what I want.Originally posted by: TechnoKid
you won't always get what you want.
Look, I don't care one way or another if you ever have a girlfriend, but I still reply to your post. See what I'm saying?Originally posted by: gjeste
problem. how can I act like I don't care, if I am already going out of my way to talk to them, persay? can you do both of those things at once. go out of your way to talk to them, while still convincing them that you dont care?Originally posted by: dirtboy

Sure you can go out of your way to talk to someone. What's the worse that can happen? They turn you down and you are still single. Oh darn. The key is to stop caring. It may be hard, but you don't have to go talking to a girl just because you want to date her. Just talk to her.
You don't act differently. Not caring is not an act, it's how much you get consumed about what you are attempting to do. If you chat up a girl with the mind set that nothing is going to happen and you're not going to care if nothing happens, then you aren't setting yourself up for failure. You just talk to her over and over and if if nothing happens, that's that.
Again, you don't convince them you don't care, you convince YOU that you don't care.
Pretty much, but you shouldn't come off as arrogant, more like indifferent. Some girls like guys that don't care, others don't. For me, it's more of a mental mindstate instead of an action.Originally posted by: gjeste
hmmm, i like this idea, so by not caring as much, I can still do the same things, and yet either be more successful (because girls will be attracted to my not caring) or even if I do fail, it wont affect me as much.
This is what you are trying to say, I take it?
is it possible to be casual while still trying just as hard? cuz if so, that is good, cuz i still have control over the situation.Originally posted by: xSkyDrAx
Be casual, not desperate. Talk to her in a more 'want to be friends' than 'want to be couples' kind of way. If they like you, you'll know, if they don't you'll know and you won't have to look like a fool(at least to other people)
you can't have complete control; the girl will aslo want control of the relationship between you two. this control should be mutual. you should have control over youself (don't make irreversible mistakes) more so than the actual situation between you and the girl.Originally posted by: gjeste

okay, i do want to be friends with girls first, and that does come first and foremost,
but lets be honest, If I'm with an attractive and nice woman, I'm definately thinking about the possibility of whether or not she may make a good girlfriend.
So.. Thus she is added onto my prospects list, and I want to learn more about her to see if she would make a good girlfriend.
Yes is possible to be casual, but you can't be in control of a situation that doesn't warrant control.Originally posted by: gjeste

okay, that is understandable. so you shouldnt give the woman more credit than she deserves, in other words, if you dont know whether she is 'girlfriend quality' you shouldnt act like she is 'girlfriend quality'Originally posted by: dirtboy

I think all men think about what kind of future they want with an attractive woman. I'd say that's normal. The key is not to let yourself get out of control and become obsessive before things develop.

Heeey there. Pissed off any cops lately?
Cripes, you could at least change your freakin' story a little bit if you're gonna troll like this. Make it at least a LITTLE challenging...I dont drink, and I really dont want a girl who does (and at the college I go to right now, a private Christian college, my guess would be that a good 80% of the girls here dont drink period.
oh btw,
note: this is a christian college so alcohol is not permitted, so that does change the social atmosphere a bit. not as many big parties, more so you get to know ppl thru regular fun activities.
haha...I was just going to mention that. pwned.Originally posted by: Jzero
