- [Summary: Dave meets girl, asks her out, she says no, wants to ask her
- again, but she disses him. However, Dave thinks she likes him but she
- acts differently]
- >The thing is she was the one that approached me
- >in the beginning and I had the feeling that she liked me. But I guess
- >my predictions were wrong. I mean she does hang around with this one
- >guy constantly. But according to some of her friends, he is not her
- >boyfriend. I really don't know what's going on.
- Not to sound too cynical, but frankly, I think most young women are
- fickle. One minute, they'll think you're the person they've been looking
- for all their life, next minute, they'll think you're trash. One minute,
- they'd die if they didn't have you, next minute, they couldn't care less.
- Plus, it's easy to see things when you're looking for them. For instance,
- lets say that I like a girl (we'll call her Judy). Judy's in my class.
- Sometimes, when I look around during lecture, I see her staring at me.
- She even says "hi" and comes up to me and starts talking to me out of the
- blue. No, this doesn't mean Judy's interested in me romantically, she's
- just a friendly person who likes to stare into nowhere (AKA daydream).
- But me, looking very hard, might just think that she likes me (in the
- romantic way), and misinterpret most heinously.
- Then again, maybe she did like you (romantically), but has changed her
- mind. You'll never know, even if you ask her. Plus, don't listen to
- her friends (or if you do, listen with a grain of salt) even if they're
- 'reliable'. They can be misinterpreting Judy's actions/etc too...or,
- perhaps they're all in league to play around with you. (the paranoia
- school of thought. Not necessarily foolish/silly. Sometimes, it's
- too true)
-
- >I think it's true that relationship develops when you don't try hard.
- That's what people tell me too, and I have to agree on the basis that
- I've tried very hard, and relationships never develope. In fact, it
- deteriorates until not only are you not 'boyfriend/girlfriend' but not
- even friends. NOT EVEN ACQUIANTANCES! Sad, but true. Chill if you
- can.
- >Because I think too much of her and I try to force the relationship.
- >Based on my past experience, I get into the relationship easier if I
- >don't force it.
- Yes, definitely don't force it.
-
- >But I still don't know why she is trying to avoid me. I would
- >appreciate your advice and comments.
- Change of heart? Embarrased (for some odd reason)? Or perhaps,
- she's just not ready to be romantically involved (I'm assuming she's
- Asian) and that she's avoiding possible heartbreak/problems/confusion
- by avoiding the possible cause. Or, perhaps she just plain doesn't
- like you anymore (sorry, but it's possible. Unfortunately. And all
- you can do is try to forget too)

- Hope that helps, Dave.
