lospantalonsfancie Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) Women: if you are "impressed" with a man's accomplishments, how well does that translate to attraction? There's this girl that I met at an activity I partake in regularly, and I think she is just swell. Usually, I would think that she's too popular for me, i.e. she would be very hard to get and harder to keep because so many men are after her. However, by what she's said to me since she became aware of my accomplishments (probably through facebook/online stalking), she's made it very clear that she is very impressed and even intimidated by my CV. I hope that means that she wants me, rather than she feels like she can't relate to me. Either way, I want her, and I wonder how to play this if I want to succeed.

peterbetz Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 She is impressed by you ...she likes you if she smiled when you said something funny does that mean she likes you, or just that she enjoys a nice joke? if she put her arm around your neck a couple of times does that mean she likes you or are some girls just a little more comfortable with physical contact? If when we left the caffe (not alone) she put her arm around your for a little while does that mean she likes you or just that it was a little cold outside ?
insertnamehere Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 If a woman actually uses the word "impressed' then it's time to roll with it.
Negative Nancy Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 she's probably "impressed" by the potential capacity of your wallet
Ranchero44 Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 I don't know that being "impressed" always translates into attraction. A list of accomplishments would just be gravy, to me. What matters the most are a man's core characteristics--including humility. I think the important thing is a man's ATTITUDE towards his accomplishments. If he shoves them down your throat and talks about them all the time, that is a huuuuuuuuge turn-off. If he has a lot of accomplishments and is very humble and self-effacing about them--huuuuuge turn-on. It just depends.
Andy_K Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 she's probably "impressed" by the potential capacity of your wallet I second this.
jobaba Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Not too much. Many women have told me they are impressed by 1) the university I went to and 2) how good I am at playing the guitar. Neither has ever gotten me any nookie... On the other hand, as a poster said, if that translated to a LOT of $, then it'd probably have gotten me some.
