Has "this" ever happened to you?
« on: September 12, 2003, 09:43:28 PM »
So I'm going through this dating site thingy my friend told me about, since I guess I suck at this whole "find the girl, date the girl" thing. So there I am going through the girls in NY on campushookup.com, and what do I find? None other than the girl I'm working with in PR for the school.

It's really freaky. Now I have no idea how to approach her about this, or if at all I should talk to her about it. Just let it go... augh, this is confusing. Now I'm confusled.!

You want my advice? (whether you do or not, here it comes. YOu can be reasonably certain that my advice is at least worth hearing, as I've gotten married, but that may have been a freak chance).

Anyway, my advice is just to ask her out. DOn't mention the site or anything. Just ask her out. To something you know she'll like (you must have a list of "likes" from that site). Make it something really fun but something you can interact at.

That is all.

Dont mention it to her! But do ask her on a date with no strings attached...
I find that girls freak about commitment on date with guys who tell them how much they like em on the first date...

Yeah, are you sure that level 20 for student of nature is "Lesser Druid" and not "King of Bad Ideas?"

ok, then you stay away from her. Ask someone ELSE on a date. Otherwise follow above advice

Is she married? Then she's fair game and not some sort of chattel property.

If you like her you can hang... If your a prick you'll abuse that closeness to try something stupid.

Since you seem like a nice guy be honorable as well. Don't make any moves physically and romantically on her while she's seeing someone. Be like the troubadors....

have we even established that he even REALLY LIKES her?

Now, everyone can be treated as a friend, but whatever the technicalities, it is tres uncouth to move in on a "taken" woman. Not because she belongs to someone, it's just bad form if she's happy and not being abused.

Personally i would be inclined to ask her boyfriend about the dating website thing. Just for malicious mayhem :P

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

Good point, actually.  If she's using a dating website, then how serious can she be about this other guy?  She's obviously interested in other dating opportunities.

ok, there's a good point. But ignoring the fact that the web site may be previous to her relationship, or that her friend who doesn't like her SO may have set it up FOR her, do you want to be the guy who dates a girl who goes behind her man's back and sets something up like that? Also, do you want to be the guy who breaks up couples? I'm just thinking "Do unto others" you know.
