We are extremely close to shutting down this thread for the same reasons the PUA thread was shut down. While some of the time this thread contains actual discussion with people asking help and people giving nice advice, it often gets derailed by rubbish that should not be here. The moderation team will be trying to steer this thread in a different direction from now on. Posts of the following nature are banned: 1) ANYTHING regarding PUA. If your post contains the words 'alpha' or 'beta' or anything of that sort please don't hit post. 2) Stupid brags. You can tell us about your nice success stories with someone, but posts such as 'lol 50 Tinder matches' are a no-no. 3) Any misogynistic bullshit, including discussion about rape culture. 4) One night stands and random sex. These are basically brags that invariably devolve into gender role discussions and misogynistic comments. Last chance, guys. This thread is for dating advice and sharing dating stories. While gender roles, sociocultural norms, and our biological imperative to reproduce are all tangentially related, these subjects are not the main purpose of the thread. Please AVOID these discussions. If you want to discuss them at length, go to PMs or start a blog. If you disagree with someone's ideologies, state that you disagree with them and why they won't work from a dating standpoint and move on. We will not tolerate any lengthy derailments that aren't directly about dating. | ||

Throw those assumptions her way with not the most serious attitude and much fun is to be had. =D Yeah, the second date's over now and literally nothing happened. We didn't even come close to touching, even though I was constantly setting up for it. except for the hug when I left where she wished me a safe way home and asked me to maybe contact her again in the future (you're German, she said "kannst dich vielleicht ja mal melden"), which sounds pretty negative to me. Otherwise in terms of signals, I don't know how to interpret all the stuff she told me. She made an effort to generally talk about past acquaintances a lot (a lot of stories like "this time I met this guy...") and made a lot of references to her looks and her weight, and how much sport she does and how she lost so much weight losing this and that diet (she's got a pretty fit body but is on one of those girly "I need to look like Germany's Next Top Model" runs) like she wanted me to judge her. Usually these are positive signals given by an insecure person, but then she's the most outgoing and (seemingly) confident person I've ever met. Also she said a ton of shit that directly contradicted that, e.g. once she described this guy and listed a bunch of characteristics that she liked and then said she was totally turned of by him after they kissed first. Anyways, of those characteristics literally all (10 or so) were exact opposites of me. Dunno, gotta figure out a way to get a clear signal via text messages, cause I don't really want to waste any more time and money in real life, but I really like her personality [and looks] (I don't really get anything out of the "getting to know random persons" thing). I figure straight out asking is fine but this probably nets me negative points if she is in fact into me (just asking her on a third date won't work since I know she's looking for platonic friends as well. She'd just say yes to have some fun and not be bored). | ||

In terms of topics I personally like brushing away fishing for compliments either rather rough (She's talking about how she lost weight? Muster her and ask "Are you sure?", smile afterwards) or rather soft ("Are you really trying to fish for compliments here? Do you really think you need that?" - smile!). None of what you mentioned are "signals". Not so confident, definitely, but it's not classy rapport seeking behaviour either. Talking about past acquaintances is, from my experience, more of a inexperienced way of screening the other side and/or trying to establish value by insecure people. However, you're not there to talk about her ex-hookups. Think of those stories as a bridge to what you want from her. The example you mentioned with her being turned of by him after they first kissed - dirty smile into "What turns you on when a guy kisses you?" ~ That's the type of emtional response you're looking to evoke. It doesn't really matter what you're talking about as long as you manage to evoke strong emotions. Might as well keep dating her and work on the way you act around her, she won't be the last and she's certainly not the best. It's your job to make clear signals, it's her job to not come off as "too easy". Easiest ways to judge if/how much she is attracted in a real conversation (if you really don't get it) is to make horrible jokes or check for approval seeking behaviour. PS: "I don't want to spend more money"? What exactly did you do..? | ||

It's up to you to make things happen. Less analyzing (internal) more acting (external). "Setting up touching her" sounds creepy as fuck. Just box her when she says something dumb, pet her head when she's trying to be cute or tip/box her when you're trying to get her attention. Still working on that crap. It does not come easy. I'm getting better at not just doing the beta-compliment from afar treatment, and upping the light teasing and interest-seeking further than I usually go. Like saying "Are you sure?" if somebody is clearing fishing for a compliment. Can't wait to try something of that nature instead of a bland comment. I guess I'm really saying that my focus area is being a playful guy and charming. New girl in the my extended social circle seems very receptive, we'll see how it goes. Liked reading r.Evo's post, keep it up. | ||

None of what you mentioned are "signals". Not so confident, definitely, but it's not classy rapport seeking behaviour either. Yes brushing them away is good. Another thing is turning it around as her trying to please you. Example: F "I lost weight" M "Cool, I like you better now " Imo, it's very different than "you look good" or even worse "you were already beautiful".or "For me ? :D" If she responds negatively it doesn't really matter... however if she's confused or something that's a good sign. Or in case you guys are on the way to victory and sexuality is already somewhat there, you can go with a bolder line like: "If you continue like this, I'll have to kiss you" (and leave it there, don't start drooling -.-) I guess you get the idea. The main problem with a bland comment is that they are... bland. They don't create anything. Instead be playful and funny as you said. | ||

Let her deal with her own relationship, find one of your own. You can flirt a little with her meanwhile and if you're still into her when she breaks up you can move on it. | ||
