    I met a girl. Friend of a friend of a friend. First time I've connected with anyone in a really long time. Both introverts. Seemed to hit it off and had a lot in common. couldn't stop talking to one another and we planned a art night this week to get together and do some calligraphy together.

    Now I'm all up in my own head because I've been here before so many times in my 34 years of living. I'm not sure if she's interested at all because she's really fucking pretty. She said we were going to become "new besties". Not the worst thing but you know. Our mutual friends have been ominously quiet and I can tell they're watching real closely. I can't tell if they know something I don't know?

    wish me luck

    • its called a nibfourth
    • I'm sure your mutual friends have all said 'may the fourth be with you'. I know, I'm funny. Good luck man. Go with it. xIanbolton
    • lol ronscarabin
    • Your friends probably set you up.pango
    • Great news about meeting this girl. Let her know early that you don't just find her interesting that you find her very attractive too....microkorg
    • ... you don't want to end up 'just friends'.microkorg
    • I see the friendzone in the distance.robthelad
    • If you want to fuck her, but you are not trying, I have identified why you keep getting "here" but no further.imbecile
    • "New besties" run, brother!mekk
    • yeah that "new besties" comment seems like a red flag. Find out fast. All the best.HAMT

    • "new besties" could go either way. No way to know if she's down, but to go for it. Do some "Ghost" moves behind her with the pen.section_014
    • Watch her reactions. Is she flirty, twirling her hair, responding well to suggestions of oral sex, etc.CyBrainX
    • Microkorg is right, you're going to need to show sexual interest off the bat. And make sure a touch her a bit as you talk...robotron3k
    • LOL@ ron and CyBrainBennn

    • New besties was strange but kinda cute thosince1979
    • Just do what all us awkard Brits do - get drunk with her one night and allow yourselves to make a terrible mistake either way...detritus
    • new besties. start that way - and then don't be too accessible... let her miss you a bit.umbee54
    • be honest. If you like her tell her this means a lot to you and you want to be more than 'besties'.mugwart
    • if it goes tits up (hope it wont) you will have something. if not .. well its better than pretending your just friends.mugwart
    • Bring her flowers.monNom
    • You may be friend zoned, but make your intentions clear soon and don't keep hanging out with her if she just wants to be friends. Unless you're completely OKJaline
    • ...with that and aren't planning on pursuing her forever. That can lead to issues. Hopefully it goes well though! I can relate to you.Jaline
    • If this one doesn't work out, you'll find someone else who loves spending time with you and vice-versa :)Jaline
    • good luck to you sirpockets
    • yeah, flowers... but have them delivered to her home, which you hopefully don't have an address for yet, but will soon. This proactive behavior will entice her.imbecile
    • Coming from a woman, disclosing all that on the web is not only weak, it's a lack of discretion. It's not luck you need, look up integrity.BustySaintClaire
    • time to do some manscapingCALLES
    • damn it I love you guys. thank you for the helpful, hilarious, and feel good responses. you don't know how much it meansfourth
    • LOL BustySaintClaire what did he even disclose? Talking casually about a new relationship isn't "weak". You also need to look up integrity in the dictionarytwentyfive
    • tell her you have a new calligraphy nib that only works on skin. specifically, the inside of the thigh.Greedo

    • +1 Mugwart. You have a great way of responding to contentious subjects in highly amenable terms, I've noticed.detritus
    • Me, as often I wrote my response, read it back to myself and deleted it.detritus
    • Also do you only want the fucking idiots of the world to breed and proliferate? This is why we're in the mess we're in, our best and brightest can't be bothered_niko
