I'm right here. Im going to have to say that after all of that....I agree with LanceM. That sounded hella creepy. It sounds all so proper and formal that I almost want to call shens on it. But Ill give the benefit of the doubt.
First, I must allow myself the personal indulgence of saying "I TOLD YOU SO".
😀
On the positive side, from what you described, it sounds like she likes you.
On the negative side, that came across as creepy to me. Exactly like I said before, you do NOT have a relationship with the girl, and cornering her with a "we have to talk" conversation is CREEPY. And I just simply dont buy the "I dont have time for a BF" stuff. Unless you never have time to take a piss, you have time for a BF. When you like someone like that, you find time.
I hate to be the guy to say it, but it is sounding to me like you just bought yourself a one way ticket to the friend zone. Its not non-refundable, but as of right now, youve got a seat reserved.
She : Absolutely, you are a very bright guy, you are fun, you respect me, and you obviously are very forgiving. I did mention it to you that right now I have two Jobs and I am going to school so I really don't have that much time for BF or anything like that.
But I will be hanging out with you often, we should for sure get to know each other better, you are fun, you are sincere, you have told me things that I know 90 % of the guys would just hide from me, trying to make themselves look more confident, while they really don't look like that really.
That sounds completely canned and scripted, but Ill assume you just typed it the best you remembered it and it came out robotic. Either way, thats what a girl says to the nice guy that they want to be friends with. "Oh, youre so great, I wish I could find a guy with you." Meanwhile, the guy they are dating is the guy that actually asked them out and took what they wanted instead of just blowing smoke up their sweet, luscious ass.
You put her on the spot and layed it on thick...ANY girl would act the same. Of course she was flattered. But flattery will get you nothing but a hug. No where in her conversation did she actually say she wanted to date you. If anything, her saying she didnt have time for a BF tells me she DOESNT want to date you. Again, I repeat, You do NOT say that to someone you want to date!
Which of course comes back again to the simple thing that you have still not fully grasped. You are still testing the waters, when instead you have to jump in. Everything is telling you its nice and warm and clean, but youre still running diagnostics tests and handing it off to asisstants to analyze and write a 10 page report on.
Where are you going that you cant just say plain and simple "You should come out to dinner tonight
😛", instead of stuffing her in a box and pouring your bleeding heart out all over her?
