Talking to girls

So there's this girl I've been eyeing for almost 2 weeks in my theater class. Here's how it's gone so far:
(we'll call the first day I found out I liked her day 1)

day 5: back to class the next week. Class starts, and I'm EYEINGGGG HER lol. I sit in the back and she sits on the other side of the class towards the front. I get involved in the classroom discussion, and I draw everybody's energy in (on my side of the class). Since I'm in the back corner, it's not as easy for me to draw in the other half of the class.
Here's the hilarity. Class ends, and I'm chit-chatting with my peers around me, and this guy 3 rows ahead of me is like TOTALLY into me. And like, he's gay. So he's like, literally following me around.
Well I coast after the end of class, after people have walked out. The girl is still in the class, and finally it comes down to like 5 people in the classroom (including the gay guy). So I just blurt out like, 'so how do you like austin?' like totally casual. It totally worked.
So I end up 'hooking' her. the only problem is, the gay guy is still following me!!! So instead of me and her talking, it's a group of 3. Me, her, and the gay guy (who's after me).
And it is sooo awkward. Anyway, about the time we get to the parking lot, I bail, because it's too weird (saying I'm going to another class =P). As I walk away, i hear her say, "so, i guess you're walking me to the parking lot?" (to the gay guy). HILARIOUS!!!!

Day 7: Same thing happens, except I'm like 5 minutes late to class. Well we had a test due. So, at the end of class, I give my teacher my test. It was perfect, because once again she was one of the last people to leave the class. So I start to walk out as soon as she does (basically), and the teacher is like, "OHH HOLD ON!". Apperently I used the wrong size of note cards, and by the time we were done talking about how the test should be, she (and everyone else in the class) is longggggg gone

Day 12: We watch a movie. She's not there. I looked really good though, lol. I was super hot. And she missed it. bummer. The other girls were oogling me though :cool::p

Day 14 (today): we watch the 2nd half of the movie, but I'm totally late. It worked to my advantage though. Since I sit in the back corner (directly by the door) I can just sneak in. Plus it's pitch dark (watching the movie) so I stay hidden (getting girls is like hunting! =P lol =P j/k ;) )
ANYWAY, at the end of class, since I knew we were watching the movie, I didn't bring my backpack. So when the lights went on, we could go home.

I couldn't just stand around class and WAIT for (marionettia) to leave the class, so I went downstairs to get some water and make a little detour. It was perfect, she came down the stairs right as I was approaching them. I was maybe a full step behind her! And like she ignored me! So I had to say SOMETHING! lol like here's my chance! But it's like raining outside and cold. So it's nasty outside!

Anyway I'm like 'so how'd you like that movie?'. and she like turns around, and looks at me, and puts it together, like 'oh that guy'. and then like, she starts to slow down walking to talk to me, but like i keep up the pace (because it's raining and I don't want it to be weird!). She needs to know I'm only talking to her on the way, and I'm not willing to sit in the rain and talk to her. That's only totally normal.

So she's like, 'brrr, it's cold!" (of course she is from new york) and I'm like, 'yeah it should get better THIS WEEKEND" (hint hint!). And awkward silence... (remember it is not easy talking in cold rain) we keep walking closer to the parking lot....
And I'm like, 'what are you doing this weekend?'. she's like 'working, going to houston'.

And i was like, 'oh i was thinking about going to new orleans. It's mardi gras and would be pretty fun. Plus it's valentines day on sunday, kind of a fun bonus'. And she's like, 'ohh I forgot!'. And I was like, 'do you have a date?' (or something to that effect) and she was like, 'i have a boyfriend'. So my initial reaction is, you forgot it's valentines day but you have a boyfriend.

So I say, "well where is he at??" And she's like.. yeah trying to work on that, blah blah blah, he's out of town, blahblahblah........

well needless to say, she told me a lot of information. This definitely means she's interested in me.

So next tuesday, when I see her again, I'm gonna be like, 'so how was houston?' lol... and then tell her the real funny story of how that gay guy followed us around the first time I tried to pick her up. LOL

Since she knows I asked her out, I can totally be like, 'yeah I was trying to get your number, and like that guy was checking me out'. o man.. anyway

Super long post but... guys and girls... such an interesting social phenomena. I know alot about talking to girls so if you have any questions, ask me! Girls too! Remember, ANYONE can be excellent and picking up people! You don't have to look great (but it helps ;) ) (I'm hottt :p ) (lol)))

Dude, I thought you were dating Natalie?
 
...I am crying on the inside after reading this. Seriously, it is tearing me apart. You failed to deploy. Get her number, DO NOT HINT! Sweet Jesus. She is supposed to hint, you are supposed to lead. I am sensing she doesn't have a boyfriend, and even if she does, I doubt you have a chance. Girls do not forget Valentine's Day when they have a boyfriend. Get her number, talk to her on the phone, ask her out on the phone. Two weeks of stalling=Not Good.

I do not mean to be harsh, but I have dealt with several guys who have done similar shenanigans and it never ends well.
 
You failed to deploy. Get her number,

That's what I tried to do since that first day (day 5). But that gay guy was hanging around and it was totally weird. Hilarious story but totally weird. And the following 2 classes have their own reasons why I didn't get her number! =P

I am sensing she doesn't have a boyfriend. Girls do not forget Valentine's Day when they have a boyfriend.

I think she definitely has a boyfriend. When I asked her questions, her responses were completely natural. I tried to get her number several classes ago, but I have my stories for why I didn't get it (lol). So since v-day was coming up this weekend, I decided just to go for it. Be assertive. And straight up ask her out. So I did.

But she was totally surprised when I mentioned mardi gras. and she was just as surprised when I mentioned v-day. I think her responses were totally honest and don't have a reason to think otherwise.

Two weeks of stalling=Not Good.

Honestly, real relationships can last a lifetime. If this is a real relationship, 2 weeks of stalling is just a small period during the beginning of what could be a serious relationship. 2 weeks is a small period of time to consider what could be a lifetime relationship. That's why I honestly feel the urgency to execute the short-term connection is less important, because I'm the type of person to consider the long-term side effects. So yeah, I'm def. different.

No way. My wife had a boyfriend when I met here. Took her all about one week to realize she wasn't in a relationship with the right guy.

I'm no house wrecker but a girl saying that they have a boyfriend certainly does not mean I'm not considering being your girlfriend. However, if you do invite the girl to hangout and she isn't quickly ending her current relationship, it's time to move on.
 
She didn't forget it was Valentine's. She forgot it was Mardi Gras.

You cracked me up with how good you looked. Like seriously, that was so honest and cute. I can picture my son saying that in a couple of years. I don't want to, but I totally can. Thanks for a smile :)
 
I need that special somebody,
I need anybody,
but I have nobody.
 
It's Valentine's Day this weekend? I hope my boyfriend doesn't get me anything. Actually, I know he won't; he's too smart to fall for that shit (only $30 for a dozen roses that are gonna die! Great investment!).

* * *

Natalie, you know, he DID say the girl he wants to go out with HAS a boyfriend... HMMMM! Have you met any creepy, over-peppy guys who stare at you and have poor speaking abilities lately?
 
Thank you.

As if some lily pure bachelorette protects against such concerns...

C'mon, this question has been debated for centuries.

Even the Virgin Mary had somebody else's baby... love is complicated.

don't believe that



sorry to hear that, Ozzy. hope that changes for you!

If you're a single young man who thinks he NEEDS a special somebody, you've pretty much reached the end, imo.

Love either attacks you out of the blue, or you spend your life telling yourself that this (no this, no this) wrong thing is actually right...

What I'm saying is, if you're LOOKING for that special someone, they can't be found. "That" special someone doesn't exist.

much better stated than saying "nothing left to do but die" to a lonely person on a forum.

I disagree with "pretty much reached the end". Its all a matter of changing perspective.

Fair enough,

"Nobody loves me,
everybody hates me,
guess I'll go and eat worms..."

might have been better.

Ah I always found such potent truth in that little saying!

"Nobody" means "nobody," not even the speaker... which makes sense. If you can't put up with yourself, how on earth is anyone else supposed to?

I wonder what all of this has to do with DJ.

I suppose you're an interventionist then? ;)
