| being politely persistant towards a girl... Posted: 2/27/2008 10:53:02 AM | | I also wonder about the line between "persistent" and "stalker/creepy." Is there an objective line, or does it exist solely in the eye of the beholder? I'm inclined to believe the latter, which is one reason I'd move on after two "nos." | |

If a woman says no and wants to be a friend then she has to tell me that she will never be attracted to me or advice me on my romantic interests. I bashed my head against a wall once, I prefer to keep what remains of the morass in my head in place. | |

If she is shooting me a line and she just doesn't even want to get to know me for some reason, I might keep trying. For her to just get say no to my "face value" is something we both might regret. So I might un-obsessively persist until she'll at least give me a chance to show her who I really am. | |

| being politely persistant towards a girl... Posted: 2/27/2008 2:59:57 PM | There was another thread where a woman asked men how many times we will "try again" when a woman tells us she's not interested. The over-whelming response was "only once." Is there still some sort of Miss Manners rule that you have to make a guy chase you? How can you get a guy to chase you if you don't run? How can you play games with someone who refuses to play?
Recently I put someone on my favourites list... and then I realized that they looked familiar because it was someone I used to know... asked out, got a yes... and then she kept breaking dates. Removed her from my list immediately. Games are for kids, and I'm only interested in dating adults now. | |
