There's a girl I'm trying to move in on, and there's a guy that sits directly next to her every day. I can tell he had the same idea. How do you deal with such a situation without either (a) looking desperate and creepy or (b) dropping out and letting the other guy take the girl?

 

I've tried just looking aloof, almost as if I don't care. But sit close to (preferably next to) her, and converse with her naturally. We have a really good rapport so far.

Acting aloof (never showing signs of insecurity and/or jealousy) and acting like he doesn't exist is really the best way to go about it.

 

You have to have confidence in yourself that you're a better catch, but that you're not going to try to one-up the other guy to prove it. Either she sees you're the better dude, or she doesn't. If she doesn't that's her loss. There will always be another woman.

Ask her out.

 

Already done. I know I'm a better catch, but no matter how good you are, you're no good if you're not noticed.

 

We have a tentative date early next week.
