Alright, I recently started talking to this girl from one of my classes. I've known her for a year or so, but we've never been anything more than casual acquaintances. I know she exists, and she knows I exists too.

Anyway, a friend of mine recently got into this dumb flame war on Twitter with this girl's best friend. Let's call her Jane, and let her best friend be Brendan. He's gay. So my friend is pretty homophobic and starts calling Brendan names, referring to him as a "thing" and "vermin" on Twitter. Some vague retaliatory tweets were exchanged and things got pretty heated I guess.

Now let me explain - my friend was in a relationship with Jane until November last year. Jane dumped him because he's a douchenozzle. My friend is slightly bitter about Brendan because he thinks Brendan was the catalyst for Jane dumping him, with Brendan being her best friend and all. So let's fast forward to this year January. My friend talked to me about Brendan, and was complaining about how Brendan was the one who convinced Jane to break up with him and so on - it was ludicrous. He told me to go on Twitter to see how much of an ass Brendan was online. I did, and I found his blog. That's when I first found out Brendan was gay.

I told my friend about Brendan being gay, and told him about his blog. He didn't really do much with the information, but he was starting to say some pretty homophobic things. I left it alone because I didn't care much - he wasn't openly saying it to people. Then 2 days ago the whole gay bashing thing started on Twitter. Jane and Brendan retaliated. Things were getting pretty out of hand. It started when Brendan made the standard teenage tweet about my friend's new girlfriend. It went something like this:

1) date a slut
2) tell everyone
3) ???
4) profit

So that's what started the whole thing I guess. Pretty stupid stuff. But that's not the point. Sorry for making this too confusing.

When I realized that I had enough, and that was when my friend called Brendan a 'thing', I sent Brendan a message on Twitter. In that message I apologized to him for subjecting him to the homophobic remarks as I was the one who told my friend about his homosexuality. I explained myself for a bit, saying that I was completely fine with homosexuals and I supported gay rights, the whole works. He accepted my apology and I got a new friend.

Brendan mentioned that I should've talked to Jane before telling my friend about his blog. I apologized again. Then I sent a message to Jane, apologizing to her. She accepted my apology too. We then started talking about other things.

We talked about her and her family, she told me about the problems she had with her family. She asked me how much I knew about her especially since I hung around with her ex so much (they hate each other). I told her that I knew some things. She asked what those things were, so that she could either establish them as either fact or fiction. It was all done in a very friendly manner.

This afternoon I started texting her again. We talked about her favourite books and authors, and I talked about mine. The conversation was very pleasant. We talked about her favourite graphic novel (comic) which was 'I Kill Giants', and I made a joke about how I was reading about "messed up girls" as she asked me to read the comic and I was working on reading Lolita. She mentioned that she hasn't read Lolita, but knew about the book. She asked me for a brief synopsis for Lolita, and I gave it to her. The conversation then shifted to why Humbert Humbert was the pervert that he was, and we talked about him having an underdeveloped sex life, and so on. She brought up the birds and the bees, and I tried making a joke. I asked why it had to be birds and bees. She proposed that it was because bees had stingers and birds, well, birds can be slang for penis in Singapore. So that happened.

The rest of the conversation was about her passions and mine. There wasn't anything worth mentioning here.

Well, I guess what I'm trying to ask is this:
Should I be worried about getting friend-zoned and what should I do if I should be worrying about this? Should I just let things take it's natural course? If it happens, it happens, right?

Sounds a whole lot like you should go be friends with Jane and Brendan man, and not this other dude who seems, to use your term, to be a "douchenozzle". And then see what happens from there. It's possible to have a good conversation with someone who isn't interested in you, although I think you're safe placing your bet on the fact that Jane does at least entertain the thought of liking you. If you're not going to ditch douchenozzle I'd be expecting a friendzone and/or get-the-fuck-away zone eventually.

My plan of attack:
6 Don't hang out with homophobic friends anymore

9 Scout. find out if Jane is into any movies you are also into and try to watch a few with her at your place/hers (not a movie at a movie theater, those make for terrible first/early dates), Obviously, replace "movie watching" with whatever activity fits your situation/preferences, that's just my go to as a movie lover and because it's a fantastic move-making atmosphere with proper micro

14 Fast Expand, lay the groundwork for the lategame. Suggest bringing over a frozen pizza, etc, or take her out to somewhere casual first. And also, be prepared and accepting if Brendan is present, he won't cock block you obviously, so no big deal. Also, when the best friend approves you're in man. Ease into getting her alone, but ask her in a way that suggests that's what you want without being ambiguous or confusing

15 Scouting push. When you hang out together (alone or not) play it cool, but be intentional with you intentions man. Sit next to her, don't shy away if you accidentally touch

23A Attempt to do damage. If you can make a move, even a tiny one, do it man. If she's open to snuggle, go for it, if she's willing to talk late, stay, etc. If a big one, go for it also, IMO you should always slow play it (makes it better/more real), but that's up to you

23B If unable to do damage: Maintain course, expand further. Pull back, but don't friendzone yourself. Just because you aren't feeling her up after hanging out once and she isn't spending every second with you every day doesn't mean your cause is lost. Keep up the pressure, never let her drone too hard. Otherwise the cause will be lost no matter what and you'll get friendzoned. D:

**Note: IMO, if you're feeling like she isn't picking up on your signals and/or you feel like you're just terrible at sending them or whatever and it's looking like your scouting pressure is going to backfire and lose you the game, just pull your workers and tell her in plain old English what you are interested in, make a smooth joke about it or something, you're the one talking to her, you'll know what to say if it comes to that.


12:00-14:00 If gg still isn't thrown out, then you should go for it, wherever the line has been drawn, cross it. I.e. if you have sat very next to each other watching a movie, but not "cuddled" per se, go for the arm-around, if you've done that but nothing else, try to kiss her (WITH TACT obviously, don't just dive bomb it), if you've gone out but not alone, ask her out again but specify it as a date-date this time, alone, just the two of you, etc.

If you succeed and she responds positively to whatever move you end up making I demand that you hear "EEE HAAANN TIMIIIIINNGGGG" in your head as it happens. Alternatively, go full man mode and stop mid-move and shout it yourself.

Hopefully I gauged your situation accurately and didn't just throw out a bunch of beginner's advice for someone who didn't need it. :/ But you are the one who made the girl blog man, so don't blame me! lol

This is completely accurate IMO. Approved as official TL;DR, should be added to OP.

If you don't care about your friendship with this guy, then it isn't much of a friendship and just go for it. If you want him as a friend, you can friendzone her. Make up your mind about your allegiances though.

Also, OP def wants a hole.

why dont you start of with this:

firstly: try to make sure whenever you text her its something that makes her smile

secondly: try to text her late, it's a good sign if she is comfortable texting you late at night, its a great sign if she is comfortable texting you while she is in bed!

ride on playa, let us know when there is some improvement

As much as I would want for you to find someone, I think you really need to consider what kind of person you are and whether you'd be comfortable dating the ex of a friend.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

stop texting too much and take it to the real world.

If you keep texting without meeting, it can get very awkward. You want to move things along anyways so you dont end up being the guy she texts to comfort herself.

Make sure she knows where you stand early on. Otherwise, you'll keep building her up in your head about how amazing she is, and she'll just think of you as a great guy friend. You don't want to wait around and the hear, "I'm so glad I met a nice guy after my ex". Ugh.

Or

Text her, get to know her, but don't stop checking out other girls. If you see another girl that's cute, flirt with her, ask her out. And then just keep this girl on the burner. Whatever you do, don't get hung up on her.

As much as I would want for you to find someone, I think you really need to consider what kind of person you are and whether you'd be comfortable dating the ex of a friend.


I think I'm fine with it, especially since he has a new girlfriend now and he supports me.

Yea, I agree, the initial assumption that 2 of the 3 were in love was too low.

i fell in love with a girl whom i only ever really knew on the internet... I never see her now.. Take it from me. texting is not dating. just ask her out and then do well on the date. my grandma could text a girl successfully dood.
hold on! i'm callin' you back to the pool, and we'll dazzle them all!

Sigh...I remember what it was like to be in grade 9, talking to a girl all day and all night. We'd listen to the radio together, talk about music, and life. I've never had anything like that again in the past 8 years.

Are you sending flirty messages as well OP? It's a good thing to text her and get her all loosened up and happy to talk to you, but if you keep going on too much from that point on you text her right out of your bed and on the couch. By which I mean youre gonna be the one who aint getting any but who get's to know all her horrifyingly boring little secrets...

Why have you got a douchenozzle for a friend? Why are people advocating putting him first over a girl? Dafuq is even going on?

Stop texting, get her out. Be aggressive. Then you can find out if you're f-zoned or not.

These are right, texting all day errday is a great way to get friendzoned, just ask her out and go do something fun together, flirt, make out, profit

To be honest, I've never really understood why the whole "friend code" exists. Like, if your friend isn't dating person X anymore (we'll call her Felicity), then why can't you date her? And why does the friend code seem to apply EVEN IF your friend is the one who broke up with Felicity, and EVEN IF there were no hard feelings in the break-up? It just seems dumb to hold onto this friend code in such situations.

Sounds a whole lot like you should go be friends with Jane and Brendan man, and not this other dude who seems, to use your term, to be a "douchenozzle". And then see what happens from there. It's possible to have a good conversation with someone who isn't interested in you, although I think you're safe placing your bet on the fact that Jane does at least entertain the thought of liking you. If you're not going to ditch douchenozzle I'd be expecting a friendzone and/or get-the-fuck-away zone eventually.

My plan of attack:
6 Don't hang out with homophobic friends anymore

9 Scout. find out if Jane is into any movies you are also into and try to watch a few with her at your place/hers (not a movie at a movie theater, those make for terrible first/early dates), Obviously, replace "movie watching" with whatever activity fits your situation/preferences, that's just my go to as a movie lover and because it's a fantastic move-making atmosphere with proper micro

14 Fast Expand, lay the groundwork for the lategame. Suggest bringing over a frozen pizza, etc, or take her out to somewhere casual first. And also, be prepared and accepting if Brendan is present, he won't cock block you obviously, so no big deal. Also, when the best friend approves you're in man. Ease into getting her alone, but ask her in a way that suggests that's what you want without being ambiguous or confusing

15 Scouting push. When you hang out together (alone or not) play it cool, but be intentional with you intentions man. Sit next to her, don't shy away if you accidentally touch

23A Attempt to do damage. If you can make a move, even a tiny one, do it man. If she's open to snuggle, go for it, if she's willing to talk late, stay, etc. If a big one, go for it also, IMO you should always slow play it (makes it better/more real), but that's up to you

23B If unable to do damage: Maintain course, expand further. Pull back, but don't friendzone yourself. Just because you aren't feeling her up after hanging out once and she isn't spending every second with you every day doesn't mean your cause is lost. Keep up the pressure, never let her drone too hard. Otherwise the cause will be lost no matter what and you'll get friendzoned. D:

**Note: IMO, if you're feeling like she isn't picking up on your signals and/or you feel like you're just terrible at sending them or whatever and it's looking like your scouting pressure is going to backfire and lose you the game, just pull your workers and tell her in plain old English what you are interested in, make a smooth joke about it or something, you're the one talking to her, you'll know what to say if it comes to that.


12:00-14:00 If gg still isn't thrown out, then you should go for it, wherever the line has been drawn, cross it. I.e. if you have sat very next to each other watching a movie, but not "cuddled" per se, go for the arm-around, if you've done that but nothing else, try to kiss her (WITH TACT obviously, don't just dive bomb it), if you've gone out but not alone, ask her out again but specify it as a date-date this time, alone, just the two of you, etc.

If you succeed and she responds positively to whatever move you end up making I demand that you hear "EEE HAAANN TIMIIIIINNGGGG" in your head as it happens. Alternatively, go full man mode and stop mid-move and shout it yourself.

Hopefully I gauged your situation accurately and didn't just throw out a bunch of beginner's advice for someone who didn't need it. :/ But you are the one who made the girl blog man, so don't blame me! lol

"REMEMBER: EEEEE HHAAAAANNNN TIIIIIIMMMIIIIIINNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!"

This is pure awesome, man. I love thinking about real-life in terms of Starcraft. I remember when I first got to college, my room-mate was constantly bringing girls home, and girls were always asking him me where he was. Now I'm completely hopeless in social situations and I'm even more hopeless around girls, so I was quite jealous of Mr. Smoooooooth my room-mate. Anyway, that night I had a wonderful dream. I dreamed that I was talking to him about it, and he said "oh, it's easy. Just be cool. Here, watch the replay", and so I loaded up the replay of his day into SC2, set the camera to his POV, and viola!! I was seeing exactly how he went about making friends so easily (and for some reason I could see him making mouse clicks in the real world -- strange, lol).
