CLiffs: Meet a girl, we've hung out ONCE, have an awesome time, very touchy flirty at bbq and her place, IOIs, text bombing me all day and sending pics since. Says she's getting to know another guy and doesn't want to "play the field" anymore, I at least appreciate her honesty. "Let's be friends and do cool stuff and see if it works out with other guy"

Keep in mind we have a TON in common, I know she finds me fun and attractive, and clearly this guy isn't stealing the reigns. I have NO investment in her as of to this point other then a few hours. I know what you're all thinking and I normally would to but....

This girls been burned a lot. She I think is trying to protect herself and is putting up a large ASD , she even stated to me she went slutting hard earlier this year before her last bf, again, very honest.

She clearly has interest in me and I think the whole friendship thing is bs. She's from a ghetto family and I could tell she's been around the block. She can't stop talking to her friend about me, texting me a ton (meanwhile me barely responding), her wanting approval on her looks in pics, etc. Even threw a shit fit when she thought I deleted her from FB, when I just deactivated it.

Now obviously if I go for it, I'm going for a kiss close/hopefully more. I'm thinking why not one last shot? Set up an epic day of fun, go back to her place and just go for it. It's like she's waiting for me (or someone) to take the reigns. This guy has been around at least a month and she hasn't even told her friend about him, I've seen him in pics and he looks like a doofus. Grown ass man with a small dirty hat, flannel and torn jeans, homely look.

I know she's not LTR, and I know it seems like I'm over invested, but my game and frame is the weakest part of trp for me. I've learned a lot, but actually in person handling women (beautiful, because they are more of a pain), holding frame and cold approach is still much to be desired. I'm only really using this as practice and to get better, and figure this is a good spot.

Fire away with constructive criticisms, links to knowledge, or any observations. Thanks.
