Omens?


Rothy:

A few friends of hers have already said that im probably the nicest and best of the guys who like her and the guys who like her include our 'jocks', etc. as well as various people. it was real disturbing to be right there near her when a random person on a bus asked her for her phone number... but anyway, so she can get anyone but these friends of hers say i'm the nicest. so im not some little nerd boy contrary to what some of you think...


Imran:

You live waaaaaay too close to me to be insulting me. I've lived nearly my entire life in philly. you don't want to mess with a city boy


thanks

Albert- omens: dreams, etc. They may tell you what realy will happen.

Example: one of my dreams, I had interpreted ti as I valued people who I did not know very well over this girl... I SPECIFICALLY TRIED NOT TO MAKE THIS MISTAKE... however, the one minute I forgot it and participated in a hacky sack game- I saw her and was going to wave, but the sack came in my direction and I was distracted for a minute and I missed waving to her and grabbing her attention so that I could have gone over and talked with her

And other dreams...

Also- before this I wouldn't have reccommended Tarot readings- I jsut did one on Love for a joke- but I had an amazingly crazy reading in which I pulled all the same suit- that in itself was strange... All wands, and nearly all face cards!

I know they can be interepreted in amny ways- but I interpreted it in both the traditional and the nontraditional way as the Wands and the Fire they stood for were symbolic specifically to me of something that was not mentioned in the reading book.

I still dont' puyt much stock in tarot- but that reading was disturbing.

Damn it Speer we told you about this about a gadzillion times what to do in your "Love thread, part MM" etc. You never paid any attention, all you did was just whine and whine some more.

This is one of the worst things that a man do: whine. Nobody likes whiners, but partiular women. Stop whining and start acting more like a man. That will be a good start.

You don't want "pity" to enter the picture, ever. Take any necessary step to stamp it out. Stop whining is a good start.

Don't yak off about yourself, pay attention to her. Use your ears, use your eyes, use your heart. If you pay as much attention to her as you to our previous advices, you're dead. Hang it up now and stop wasting time.

Don't force the issue. Maybe she really isn't interested in the moment. Respect her wishes. That will separate you with all these other suitors.

Find something in common. If you don't have anything in common with her, forget it. It won't work out.

Learn body language. I have told you this a million times at least. Did you listen? No! So why the hell are you asking for advice now? Bah!

Albert, I wasnt suggesting you were a geek. I have spent my forst 18 years being 'nice' and it never got me anywhere. It's just not worth chasing the 'perfect' ones because in my experiece, it just doesnt work.

My current girlfriend seems to be absolutly crazy about me(dont ask my why,i'm convinced she's mad), sure, she certainly doesnt fit my idea of 'perfect' but it's sure nice to be on the recieving end of somebody's affection.

That's just a myth.

Really, get cracking on it. Some knowledge of body language helps a lot, as at least 80% of information is communicated through non-verbal channels.

Yep, body language is very useful if you want to know how others feel about you.
Definately find out about it if you are serious, and even if it doesn't work out with her, being able to read body language is useful whenever you talk to other people IRL.

How do you distinguish a genuine smile from a forced smile?

The eyes, the curvature of their lip, hell, there are a thousand clues. With a genuine smile, their eyes wrinkle, with a false one, they don't. Those eyes remain on you after the smile if the person is truly happy to see you, but they slide over your shoulder if they aren't. Genuine smiles are more likely to be open-mouthed, while fake smiles are generally closed-mouthed affairs.

Anyway, what's the answer your looking for?

Forget. Leave well enough alone. Walk away. Remove all knowledge of her existence from your mind.

Otherwise, we'll surely be flooded with 20+ threads about this woman and how you continually continue to be unable to get her. Then, we'll be forced to give you advice, which you won't obey. Then, you'll whine some more here, until skaters come back and re-kick your ass.

Close enough.

What you look at are the eyes. If a smile is genuine the muscles around the eyes contract, otherwise they remain relaxed.

Albert you have the answer right in front of you. You said she is involved with other things which from your inference she basically ignores you and the other guys right? The more she ignores you the more you guys want to go out with her correct? I can't explain it but the more someone ignores someone else that makes them that much more alluring.

Reverse it. She knows how you feel. If you are constantly there and underfoot then there is no chance for her to be ignored or "miss" you as the case may be. If you change your habbits around her she will notice you. Don't be mean or rude, still be your nice poliet self. Light up when you see her etc.... just don't be as available to her as you have been. And if you are talking to her friends or your friends about her......then STOP!!

You would be a fool to think that in some way that isn't going to get back to her. People talk. End of story. Even if someone says they will keep your confidence at some point it will slip out. Maybe not on purpose but it will. So if you reverse how you act and the information stops getting filtered back to her she will beging to wonder. Trust me there is nothing that will get a girl/woman to give you another look or chance then if she thinks you might not be interested anymore when you were for so long!

In my opinion, you have problems, and you would stand a better chance of people in general liking you if you got psychological help. Barring that, if you can't get a girl, don't sweat it. If girls will not go out with you, there is no sense in getting depressed over it, focus on areas of your life where you are more sucsessful.......

Oh, and I am pretty sure that Imran could beat you into a bloody pulp.
