Males and Females

Despite myself, and everyone I've talked to that has seen her with me, I'm starting to think that this girl isn't that into me.

So, we go out to the city for a show and have a great time. All is great. We leave to do the hour drive back and I am expecting her to crash at my place, simply because it's another 20-30 minutes back to her place, but nerp, she takes right off. She was passing out in the car, so I kinda knew that any sort of sexual activity was long gone, but I hoped that she'd be down to cuddle for a bit before passing out. But I guess not.

This leads me to believe that she is not actually interested in me romantically. I don't fucking know.

Women.
Why don't you just ask her directly?

:lol:

Yeah, i'd kind of have to agree that she may not be interested romantically because that was just a perfect opportunity of she was.. There is the possibility that she could just be really shy too and didn't feel like being pressured into anything she wasn't ready for. Not that you're the type but some girls just would rather not put themselves in the situation and would just go home to avoid one night stands or something.

Pretty hung over. I went to my friends bar and I was trying to get her sister to come and hangout with me, but she didn't. Anyways, I'm chatting with my friend and this dude who's apparently into her sister starts talking to me. So I'm sorta texting the sister to tell her to come on down because he's there. She doesn't and says she's into him but he has a girlfriend. Anyways, my friend is freakinng nuts. I'm not exactly sure what she was trying to do but he bought me a few drinks (and I bought him one too) because some of the stories about me that she was telling him were just kinda weird and extremely suggestive. Kind of feel like she was planting ideas in this guy's head but then he's into her sister so like idk what was up with that. I got too drunk and left but what an awkward night.
 
Met up with prospective female #2 today, at the same coffee shop in fact, haha. I'll refer to her henceforth as Art History Girl. Tall, slim brunette, very good looking, who's just gotten her MA and is doing adjunct teaching at a nearby college. We took a class together last semester and have met up a couple times since. But regardless, I feel MUCH more comfortable interracting her than I did Classics Redhead yesterday. We're probably going to make it a regular thing to meet for coffee to do our schoolwork and chat, but at some point I could start directing things in a romantic direction, especially if things don't work out with Classics Redhead.

She's also planning to spend a couple more years in Iowa before looking elsewhere for PhD. programs, so hopefully that doesn't impede her openness to the possibility of dating.

It's really about time I try dating people who are closer to my level of education. Not that those I have dated were any less intelligent, but being a grad student and having similar interests, just being an academic, is becoming clear to me as a prerequisite for compatibility.
 
Yoda: I would ask her straight out if she is interested in going on a date with you. No mincing words either. If you're worried about it, tell her that you're cool to just be friends if that isn't the case.

Zephyrus: If you're more comfortable interacting with Art History Girl, I would focus on her and just be friends with Classics Redhead. If CR is awkward to interact with, AHG is probably a better choice.
 
That's my immediate deduction, at the moment, but also factor in that I've know AHG for a while and only met CR in person for the first time yesterday. I'll see how my next rendez-vous with CR goes to see if I'm mellower.
 
Aaaaand Art History Girl just updated her FB relationship status, and is seeing someone. Perhaps she detected I was interested in her today and decided to make it public for that reason.




FUCK
 
Or she did it to scare you off which has happened to me before.

I don't think it's worse than the ones who act interested and then pull a 'slow fade' or 'dead in a ditch' and just stop communicating entirely.

I literally just started screaming and punching things for 3 straight minutes, but now I actually appreciate that she did that. I hate ambiguity and this made things clear.

Here's to Classics Redhead (who i'm chatting with online atm).
 
Women can be harsh creatures man. I hear stories from women about dudes on OKCupid being creepy but women are on an equal level when it comes to flakiness from my experience. Luckily I found a woman who values being communicative as much as I do.
 
Funny, I posted an Antaeus song on FB and sort of expressed that I was in a state of rage, and IMMEDIATELY one of my fellow Classics grads, a girl I've been attracted to, started messaging me asking if I'm okay, so I opened up to her about it (and about my recent breakup). It really helped console me.

But she's a colleague in my department. WAY too risky.


edit: JEREMY CAN'T HANDLE BEING SINGLE
 
You're probably right. At least I'm getting all this out of my system now before the semester starts. I'll have enough on my plate once classes resume.
 
No need to rub salt in the wound.

I do think it's not an invalid suggestion that Zeph could stand to work on his anger a bit. That sounds pretty serious. Take care of yourself, bro.
