Getting Mixed Signals

First off I'm drunk so if I repeat myself or don't make sense forgive me. I'll have to check this thread in the morning and make sure I didn't leave anything out.

Long story short, I met this girl at college a week or so ago hanging out with some friends. She's a really pretty girl yada yada. Well the first night we hung out (so far its only been in a group) she seemed pretty into me. Not overly flirtatious like doing it for attention but more just focusing on me out of the group, talking to me and shooting me looks instead of joining in on the group, complementing me on what I was wearing and my car and shit. Then another friend texts me saying while they were taking her home she was asking all these questions about me, wondering if I have a girlfriend or anything and stuff like that.

Didn't see her the past week until Saturday night when we decide to go out to the bars. We all hung out for a pretty good bit before hand. When we pick her up to get dinner she wants to show me her apartment, meet all her roommates,she asks me to come over and help her with homework and such the next, and sits next to me at dinner. Just subtle things.

So we end up getting to the bars and so I joke with her that she's going to keep up with me. So I'm drinking blue motherfuckers the whole night and she's keeping up, and gets more openly flirtatious to me as the night goes on. Then the liquor truly hits her. She starts dancing on some random ass guy for a little bit right before the bar closes. When the lights come on she comes back to me and asks for me to hold her or whatever so she can back to the car. And on the ride home she's holding my hand and just shit like that.

We get back to the girls house that she's staying at where of course she just starts yaking all over the parking lot. Being the nice guy I am I stay out with her in the parking lot while she does the deed. Walk her in and put her to bed. I also decide to leave a little note to her saying it happens to everyone yada yada. Because she felt really bad about getting sick and shit.

Well come today I go over to help with her work and she's back to the same subtle signals that she's into me. She's got the not I left her on her bedside table. I text her tonight asking her if she wants to get dinner one night this week and she's all "I'd love to but my roommates are mad I haven't been home all weekend so I'm probably just going to eat here, but we should definitely all go out this week"


So I'm just like if she's as into me as it seems and such, wouldn't she want to get dinner and go on a date and not necessarily want to do shit just as the group?

And if she wasn't into me, then why would she be keep the note I left her on her bedside table, be asking all these questions about my relationship status and stuff like that?

I just don't want to waste my time, because time is the most valuable thing you've got.

So what do ya'll think? My bros are against getting in a relationship right now but hell, I do like this girl and would be all for a relationship if she wants on too. And my girl friends are just as confused as I am about it.

I'll add this too, she doesn't seem like an attention whore so the flirtyness that she's showing me I wouldn't think would be just because she wants some guy to talk to her or whatever.

First, pics.

Relax, just hang out, have fun, and it will happen. Basically, don't over think things.

seems like you're on a good path. her excuse of not eating dinner is very plausible. seems like a people pleaser so she probably doesn't want to piss off her roommates/friends. take her up on the dinner the next week though for sure. the dancing with the other guy at the bar may have been her drunken way of trying to get you jealous so she knows for sure you're interested in her. keeping the note and asking about your availability are sure signs she's interested. you're on a good pace to date her. and fuck what your friends say. it's your life, not theirs.

I agree with everyone here. Take your time. Sounds like she's in to you, but a little shy about. Amazingly there's girls that like the guy to make the 1st move.

you are over-thinking things. and in doing so, you've made some pretty rookie mistakes already :

-being the *nice guy* who stood there while she puked her guts out, thats her girlfriend's job
-leaving the note
-over-thinking the fact she kept the note

fact is, she's in college like you. she doesnt know what she wants. if she really wanted you, she wouldnt have danced with some random guy when she was hammered and would have danced with you.

sad to say, i see a lot of friendzone flags all over your first post. listen to your bros. i would.

Alchohol brings out her inner slut, she gets more flirty and touchy when she drinks, that's a good sign for you. Sounds like she's into you, but not in a rush to jump into something serious. Just play it cool, and keep hanging with her and you'll be fine.

^^^I totally agree. Very well worded. When you don't want to get tied down, that's when it happens. The same would be true from her perspective. Sounds like she likes you, that's already a win in this type of situation.

Short on time? The alternative is flogging the dolphin for life cause you talk yourself out of anyone being worth the wait!

You did the right thing playing the nice guy role, sounds like that is what she wants. Just don't play the nice guy thing for too long, otherwise you will be in the friend-zone faster then rabbits get fucked.

It's been said but just take things slow and don't over think it. It sounds like she is into you so just play it cool and you'll see her again. I'd probably be a bit bolder the next time though since it's been a couple dates in. Just like a good night kiss or possible make out session.

Yea. I didn't really have a choice but to stay with her in the parking lot. I was walking with her then she started puking, not like I'm going to just keep on walking and leave her by herself outside at 3am. The note was a girl friends idea. "It'd be cute if you wrote her a note and left it for her to see when she wakes up." Seemed like a good idea at the time.

I did feel bad about getting her so fucked up though. Lol. Figured I'd get her to loosen up some but thought she could control the liquor and not get punched in the face by it. Lol.

Took her home and rang the doorbell
Left her layin' in the yard

It's obvious she likes you, or she would not have suggested going out again this week. And next time you go out, try something a bit more forward to give her a sign that you like her.

What can I do to be more forward but still keep it somewhat subtle? Haven't had to go through this shit with a girl in a few years.

Contact. Touch her thigh with yours while sitting next to each other. Hand on her thigh above the knee. Hand on the small of her back. Don't put your crotch on her unless you are dancing.

The liquor.

If you're thinkin' about drinkin'
The answer's crystal clear
It's the invisible intoxicant
It's called everclear

I'll have to keep that in mind next time we go out and see how it goes.

Hopefully it works out, but if it doesn't then no big deal. I'm 20, gotta live it up. Haha

I had a feeling about it was about the everclear.



And the whole cock tease is why I'm so fucking confused. Lol. If she was just wanting to be a tease I'd think she'd just be super flirtatious and not be as subtle as she is about it? Or no?
