Hi seddit, I'm new to this subreddit but I've been loving the material and FR's. I had a bit of a question regarding my own situation though.

I go to uni and have the pleasure of being surrounded by cute girls everywhere I go. I like to think I'm very close to being a natural I just need to practice a bit more kino and getting rid of my slight AA when it comes to ridiculously cute girls. Anyway, so I have four questions:

1.) There is this cute girl I have a class with and we flirt pretty consistently. She throws me a ton of IOI's like randomly looking at me, hitting my arm playfully when I make a joke, leaning towards me when sitting, noticing small things that I do, and a few others. Normally, I'd get her number and start asking her to hang out outside of class but as you can probably guess why I'm asking this, she has a 'boyfriend'. I say that with quotes because she never mentions him unless directly asked (by friends). I saw on her yearly planner 'X (I assume to be her bf) comes back this day' and made a small quip along the lines of 'that's not my name!'. She just chuckled but didn't clarify who it was.

She's throwing me some solid IOI's but I'm a bit hesitant to keep flirting with her because she technically has someone. What do you guys think? Is it worth it to try? I'm thinking I can continue to flirt with her and see where it goes but not invest myself into it.

2.) Like I said I go to uni and there are cute girls EVERYWHERE. I usually ask them to study with me if we have the same class but I've been thinking that this could be an attraction killer. Studying is fucking boring and NOT a good way to get natural kino and all that in. Should I be asking them to hang out with me on non-academic terms?

3.) Is it possible to tease TOO much? I had a thing with a girl last year and when I told her I wanted us to start seeing each other she said she had no idea I was even interested in her. Stuff like I was always joking, I act the same to everyone, I'm hard to read. This leads to my next question...

4.) How do I stop looking like the 'jokester'? I'm a fun guy to be around and I know how to have a good time but what would you guys recommend to me to stop being seen as just the "funny dude" and more of an object of attraction? I think my problem is related to my rejection anxiety and lack of kino. Are there any tips on how to be more direct with women (not in a creepy way but one that lets them know I'm interested)? Haha, thinking about it that's such a stupid question. Guy asks how do you be direct with women? Duh, by being direct.

Anyway thanks for reading this! I really appreciate the help. Hopefully, this'll help some people with the same questions.
