Whatever persona I may present on here, a cocky, confident, Casanova, whatever. It is partly true, but that is only one side of me. No one is immune to a broken heart, and neither am I.
Today this adorable Puerto Rican girl broke mine. I'd never gotten butterflies like this with any other girl, and I'd known her for several months now. I wanted to take it very slow with her because I had a feeling she was pretty special.
I finally stepped up to the plate and told her how much I liked her and that I wanted to date her, I expected her to just throw her arms around me and say "Yes! Of course!". This is what I am used to.
But she got really shy, blushed, and said the infamous: "I like you as a friend" line. Oooooo. That stung. I hadn't heard that since I was about 17 or 18. She also said she had an eye on some other guy or whatever, I wasn't really paying attention at that point.
What should I do, MTF? I come to you as a humbled James Bond, an Austin Powers who's mojo has taken a hit. Should I just forget her and go for another girl (most likely scenario)?
I think this is what I am going to do. That, and date around.
We'll see what happens. I just need to recover QUICKLY from this. I've got a local tournament this weekend and the last thing I want is to be thinking about her while I'm stepping up to the line to serve. Mentally I need to block it out.
I've had that feeling before, it's like when someone throws tacks under your car and punctures your tyres, you're on good form and good spirits and then someone halts that with just a few choice words.
Yeah my post was meant to be funny, although I was really heartbroken in my time :lol: Have to say I am allergic to stalkers. They scare me, fill with disgust and make me want to vomit.
Just like scoobs said, you'll be asking Puerto what?

Don't take it "very slow". There's a massive risk you'll be friendzoned. The worst thing you can do is tell a girl how much you "like" her before you've had any kind of sexual interaction. Get pissed with her & snog her at the earliest opportunity instead.
Too late now. As Nathii says, ignoring her from now on is your only chance.
But it sounds as though you'll get over it pretty fast anyway.
Agreed with what's been said before. That friend line is just the lamest excuse ever, tssskkk. But yeah, the moment you start being too impressed by somebody is usually the moment things will slip out of your hands. But by no means does this mean that you should not take things slow whenever you come across a girl you like - just depends on the girl, on what she wants and what you want.
Not remotely related to the thread and not even spelling, but did you know that the American accent is closer to how English was spoken around the time that people moved from Britain to the New Continent? I always found that piece of information fascinating.
On topic, you'll get over it. I used to get into the "friend zone" all the time in high school, not pretty (once it happened backwards, a friend expressed her interest. That got weird). But all's well now for me, so you needn't worry. Though you seem to be more of a type that likes to fool around while I prefer steady relationships :lol:.
Sorry to say this Jon, but I don't think you have ever been truly in love with someone, you might like this girl a lot and felt badly when she turned you down but if you were in love with her you wouldn't really think of anyone else, you're already thinking on getting over her instead of trying to win her over and that's a sign of not giving your heart over to someone
The thing is, now, 24 hours later, I'm still thinking a bit of her (Kristina). I've got a gym date with another girl (Katie) in about 2.5 hours, so I'm trying to get out and see more girls quickly.
I've got a tournament match tomorrow at 930 AM, I'm just trying to focus on that.
I believe is more an ego bruise than a heart bruise on this case, you're not used to being rejected by women
This I agree with. I'm really not used to being rejected (not since high school, really) and unsurprisingly, I seem to want what I can't have :shrug: she is a challenge, one I want to take on.
agree. Why din't you have sex with another girl in front of her face just to prove how big a badass you are and how much she is missing out on while your at it.

Definitely an ego bruise my dear, just get some of your charm around and score with other ladies, you won't be thinking about her the next time you have sex
I don't think you're ready to settle down or even to have a serious relationship because it wouldn't be fair to your woman (you do have a wandering eye and are charming, so that's not something a girl wants on her man )
Burn these stages of life and when true love comes you'll be ready for it
You should start soon introducing new plot lines in your stories, and some actual happening, everything we've read in the last ones is just the same boring story bar the location changes (gym vs tennis court vs gym water dispenser)
