thegoshdarnbatman Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) I just started university (currently in my third week). I met this girl while waiting in line for an event. We chatted for maybe a minute, and parted ways. I thought she was pretty dang cute, but didn't think much of it besides that. Well, I get to my film class, and I see her a few rows back. Now, I don't consider myself an expert on women , but she certainly seems to be looking and smiling at me. The way the film class is set up, is that there is a film viewing about an hour after the lecture. So I go see the film, and I don't see this girl at all. But after the film, I see her waiting near the exit. I go up and introduce myself, and we chat for a bit. She seemed to be a little flirty (but I could have read that wrong). I say bye, and we go our separate ways. Today was the film class lecture, and I purposefully sat near the edge so she could see me when she walks in. She does, and sits down on the same row. I walk over and sit next to her, and we chat about the class and life in general. We seem to be hitting it off pretty well, and at the end of class I tell her I'll see her at the film viewing. At the viewing, she comes in, and we sit together and chat a bit before the film starts. Well, after the film, we talk a little bit about what we thought of it. At that point I decided to man up and ask her out to dinner. Wait for it - she already has a boyfriend. She tries to save it and invite me to come along with them , but I just say that even though I guess I misread her signals, I still enjoyed talking to her and getting to know her. I then left (and felt really bad ). WTH did I do wrong here? The fact that she was smiling at me in class, the fact that she was waiting after the first viewing, AND the fact that she sat near me on the second lecture gave me reason that she was interested. Do I just suck at understanding women? Edited January 23, 2013 by thegoshdarnbatman
AlwaysConflicted Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 You didn't do anything wrong. Can't a girl make a new friend without it involving a date or sex? Keep doing what you're doing and 1 will work out.
Fondue Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Some women enjoy a bit of attention from other men despite being in a relationship. It makes them feel desired. It's a ****ty thing to do, but you have to learn to live with it. She should have sensed your interest earlier and mentioned it in passing a bit sooner. Either she was hiding that fact from you, or she was pretty dense and thought you were only trying to make a new friend. We'll probably never know.

Keep doing what you're doing and 1 will work out. I guess you're right. I just figured that if all she was after was a platonic friend, she wouldn't have made the effort to wait around for me after the class. I don't think the friend thing would work out too well now, as I'm too attracted to her to be "just friends."
