@driven6996 

Thanks!

i wanted to put down somthing that has worked for me in the past, when ive tried to ask somone out, and they say no, i would give them "the eye" and hand them my number on a small peice of paper, or a napkin saying "maybe another time then."...now one of 3 things will happen. A. they say "um...no thanks" and i take it back B. they take the paper, usualy saying nothing at all, or C. they take the paper, second guessing themselves, and call me to set up a date now that they are curious.

You should explain what you mean when you say "sometimes it's a good idea," because this contradicts the video. I think that desperately trying to change a woman's mind will fail, but confidently behaving as though she'll come around eventually can work, especially if you make it clear you'll be okay with it either way.

it seems like what i say ,women tends to enjoy by laughing or giggling when i'm not intentionally trying to be funny... lol

[heythere929]

i like what you said.. the girl i like hates it when i call her alot and pay attention to her.,.. on the other hand, if i dont call her for a few days the girl starts calling my phone off the hook... why do you think that is?

[barrydope]

Moving on? You're assuming that there are people out there that will find you interesting and/or attractive. What if there is none?

[phatso420]

I see where you're coming from, but what if the guy is telling you that he wants to date you but he has something personal to deal with. Is he just letting you down easily or is he actually going through something personal in his life?

[arkady39]

Great point. Indeed, in most cases if a man is sexually driven as a healthy man is, he will be interested no matter what is going on in his life and usually this is just a nice way to say that he is not really interested. It is possible, although rare, that a guy would be undergoing some traumatic event which will put his mind elsewhere and away from dating.

[Yankeezcap]

if she even implies no then that means that deep down there is part of her that doesn't like you, be ready to quit at all times.

[charoufunk]

i have pursued a girl for 5 months and she still hasnt gone out with me but we are friends

[arkady39]

Exactly.... pursuing doesn't really do anything to building a woman's interest, but if you are truly friends with her, then it doesn't matter. Often, having a great friend is better than going out with someone a couple of times.

[FlyingSaucer666]

I made this mistake with the last girl I dated. She wanted to end our little relationship/fling. I was persistent and kept trying to convince her we could make it work. She got annoyed with that, and now things are awkward between us. I could have salvaged a friendship out of it had I just allowed it to happen.

[arkady39]

Good. Now you will know how to avoid the same mistake in the future.

[kingreaper54]

thats my problem man i am persistant when i want a girl that i'm attracted to

[arkady39]

Sometimes it's a good idea, but if it's obvious that the girl is not interest, obviously there is no point in pushing further.

[arkady39]

Thanks a lot. What can I do with my tags to get more views? I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks, a lot in advance.

dating advice, as a header then a description of subject. just a quick thought after many beers and night out!

[UglyMaleee]

I agree :)!

[puawannabe]

Great advice. Moving on is probably the best way to go. Otherwise you can show neediness or insecurity
