To hack or not to hack?

So say you have the answer to a hot chick's secret question for her e-mail account, but of all the people she knows you'd be the most likely suspect if she couldn't log in anymore 'cos the password got changed. But then again she could be so blonde you could just tell her it's 'cos she didn't log in for thirty days (as she has been away on holiday) so the account has automatically been suspended (just like how when asking her what ISP she was with she said Mozilla Firefox).

It's quite a gamble though and if it doesn't work I won't even get to be just friends with her. On the other hand by not hacking in and finding out who she really is through her correspondence with her other friends aren't I just gambling on the assumption that she's as innocent as she sounds in her e-mails to me and isn't writing to them about her sex life?

I am sure she is the one. I take her out on dates, buy her flowers, treat her to dinner, and drop her off at home afterwards, like a perfect gentleman.

Have I slept with her yet? No. I haven't even kissed her.

I'm behaving like a total Average Frustrated Chump (AFC). One day a guy is going to walk up to her in a club, say, 'Do you think magic spells work?' and take her home. She wants an adventure. She wants to have sex. All girls do.

Well, she's different from all those girls. People have more class here than they do in Neil Strauss books.

The Pick Up Artists (PUAs) have a name for this: They call it one-itis. It's a disease AFCs get: They become obsessed with a girl they're neither dating nor sleeping with, and then start acting so needy and nervous around her that they end up driving her away. The cure for one-itis, PUAs like to say, is to go out and have sex with a dozen other girls - and then see if this flower is still so special.

Yeah, so it's too late for me to game her now as I've already known her for over five years so a sudden change in my behaviour would be too obvious. I really only have two options (anticipating the replies to this post saying I am a nerd who feels the need to hack into e-mail accounts 'cos I can't be a real man), persist for another five years and eventually win her heart by on being a nice guy who finishes last (risking finishing last without the prize then hack into her account five years later), or hack into her account now, risking the friendship? WWYD?

[image loading]

Poll: Should I hack into her account?
(Vote): I should base my decision on what the majority of TL members tell me to do.
(Vote): Don't do it because (then post your miraculous story about how you got the girl through being a loser to give me some false, deluded hope).

Does the secret question automatically give you a random password to log in with? Or is it just a way to get your old password.

If its the old password, just hack it and don't change the password. That way you get all old/current/new emails without her even knowing.

You know what, just hack it anyway. Most girls are pretty retarded about computer related stuff.
If anybody even asks you about it, suspecting you, just deny,deny,deny. Who can prove it?

Yeah you've already formulated the plan, you may as well go through with it, what's the worst that can happen?

Damn you Yahoo! Just created a new account to test this and unfortunately it asks for a new password.

Ironic isn't it, that when we have a chance of getting away with doing something bad (e.g. downloading MP3s) we'll do it. The single biggest mitigating factor for me is her becoming suspicious about not being able to log in and losing her trust in me. But the fact that I would break into her account if I could without leaving a trace just shows I'm pretty untrustworthy.

Oh yeah, funny work story... I had a new ID created for me for our firm and as a new user the password was the default Password... But when my supervisor told me "your username is your initials then last name all in caps, then an uppercase P, then the word password in lowercase"... And I thought, oh OK, so I type in Ppassword, and it said sign in failed... And she said, "no I meant P then assword" - LOL, I had to try so damn hard to keep a straight face when she said that and act like nothing happened and continue with the sign in and I think she had to too when she realised she just said assword.

Man, if only I was able to keep that kind of straight face and say "I don't know what you're talking about" if the girl asked me whether I know anything about her e-mail password being changed...

Yeah I guess, but she has 180 friends on Facebook so for example if she had to tell them her e-mail address has changed it's possible at least one of them will be computer literate enough to tell her that her account had probably been hacked (especially with the Sarah Palin fiasco bringing it to the front pages... This is actually how I found out you could do it so easily).

Anyway, I'll probably just give this opportunity a miss for now and try to slowly incorporate a bit more game element into my interactions with her and see how things go. It's probably better to play it safe and hack into her e-mail as well so I can get the full picture but maybe that's just a hand I'm too pussy to play right now (I'll probably change my mind tomorrow but what the heck).

It's a pretty douchey thing to do, but if you do go through with it, then just make sure you do it at a public computer or at someone you don't like's place.

That way you cover all your bases if you happen to get REALLY unlucky.

Do not hack her account. This is a person you've known for 5 years. You won't find out anything new by hacking into her email. All you'll find out is that you don't trust her. And that's a crummy way to start persuing a relationship.

What are you waiting for? You shouldn't need to think.... do it!

Your problem is you're WAY too nice. You sound like the consummate gentleman.
99% of guys would not bother to buy a girl flowers and take her to dinner, you are already massively ahead on the "nice" scale.

Now you have the opportunity every guy dreams of, the chance to see EXACTLY what his crush feels about him. In the end it will make your relationship much much better.

Girls dream of a man who understands what they are thinking, who knows what they want.... but realistically we aren't mind readers for fucks sake. That is why when an opportunity like this comes up you snatch at it with both hands.

Knowing this information will make your confidence sky-rocket, leading to a much better relationship. You can stop being nervous around her and act yourself.

EVEN IF you get caught, you can claim that it was because you're so crazy about her and needed to know if she felt the same way.
If she cares for you she'll get over it anyway, in fact she'll probably love the drama.

In summary this is a massive win-win and you shouldn't even be hesitating!

I say read it and then post here. Im also a nice guy and Ive lost a few women now... but whatever. Bitches aint shit!
Seriously though, you should post here if theres any weird shit in there. Good luck with her though, just continue to be a good guy and eventually (despite what you may think) you wont finish last.

As a PUA you are failing at it. As in the book it states that if you are looking for a relationship you should probably disregard the information given in the book. I on the other hand read the book for shits and giggles b/c I heard it was a great book but found out I was a natural. Anyways I voted for the first one btw but like other people said you will either read some stuff that will just make you hate her more for being the AFC if anything. Making the strong moves not giving a fuck will probably be your best chance IMO if you really want to close the situation with her to have a relationship. You've had chances to make your move you state but you seem to fail at making the move. Just go sarging and you'll easily find out if that flower is still as delicate as you think she is atm. Have fun and GG.

Post was too stupid to read all the way through.

You should not do it because it's an immoral scumbag thing to do.
