Hey all thanks for reading this,

 

I've just been rejected by a girl today after finally plucking up the courage to ask her out. I felt like I had been hit by a sledgehammer when she said "I have a boyfriend, but I'm flattered."

 

It sums up my luck. I'm nearly 19 and circumstances have just never aligned for me. There are plenty of girls who like me who I don't like back and I'm annoyed that the stars haven't aligned for me and I wonder if they ever will.

 

I'd just like people with their life experience to give their 2 cents here.

 

Also, on the same day, another girl at university asked for my phone number. I gave it to her as I hate being mean. However, she wants to meet up to "study" next week. How can I politely reject her when she texts me? I really don't want to meet up with her as I'm very busy, but I hate lying.

 

Thanks again everyone, any answers appreciated.

1) Learn to stop caring. People get rejected everyday from the guy wanting a raise to the girl who gets cut from her sports team. No difference.

2) Get out more - network, build your social standing and meet more and more people. That's how you increase your chance of finding someone you want to date.

3) Learn how to ask her out. No more 'plucking the courage...'. Maybe you like a chick you're walking to the carpark with or just chilling before class. Let the conversation steer to a place you'd like to grab food and casually ask if she's keen to go after or when she's free. ALWAYS make sure to follow up or before with getting her number.

4) Welcome to the real world mate.

She did not reject YOU, she rejected your *offer* to go out, because she has a boyfriend!

 

Big difference there.

 

Try not to take this so personally. Not everything is about YOU. It's just the situation ... she's in a relationship.

Wait so you're upset because a girl with a bf said no to you?

 

You must be really full of yourself and complete amateur at the same time. Also if you really have to "pluck the courage" then I'd ask girls out after making sure that they are in fact actually single.

And if he doesn't want to meet up with her because he is busy why can't he just say that?

 

And this ladies and gentlemen is why women don't ask men out very often. They are nice to us but not honest... At least the first girl was honest.
