What should I do?
| Mon, 08-13-2007 - 3:12pm |
Okay I like a co-worker, we hung out once and exchanged a lot of e-mail which suddenly stopped. I'd heard say before that she didn't want a boyfriend but at the time she was talking about someone else so I paid it no mind. But after she stopped e-mailing me. I sent her one last e-mail explaining my feeling for her and letting her know that if she did not feel the same I still wanted to be friends. and she replied as follows. Should I just move on or is there still a chance.

I thought I'd pitch in my two cents in regards to your two questions; tips on how to tell how a girl likes you and why you fall into the "friend" category.
I think the problem lies in your radar. Perhaps you are confusing women who are genuinely interested in you with women who like you as a person, wouldn't mind your attention and enjoy the ego boost, but wouldnt date you. A friendly smile and a wink doesnt mean she is genuine in her feelings about you.
If you have encountered women who have liked you and wanted to date you...compare their demeanor and approach and behavior with this coworker and other women who put you in the friend category. You'll see that there is a difference. A woman who would like to date you is interested in YOU. She would want to know things about you, your likes, or dislikes, and asks you questions about yourself. Maybe she gets a little nervous around you, but that is not always the case. She doesn't call you at the last minute to go out or cry on your shoulder about a guy, and doesn't use you to make another guy jealous.
The one you dont want to ask out is the one who you emailed your feelings to right? And she didnt respond? Yeah, I wouldn't ask her out.
Men haved asked women out in all sorts of ways but the honest and direct approach is always best, like, "I was wondering if you would like to go out some time on a date." It's a low key approach, but very direct and there is no confusing that with "friends".
