Long time lurker here. I had oneitis syndrome which resulted in friendzone. Your advice was to next her and find someone else which I did.

After reading and reading and reading everyday, it was time to apply what I've learned in my first year of college. I met a 8/10 at first day. There was a situation and I overheard her asking a question to some lecturer. I wanted to know the response as well so I asked her if she could keep me updated about the situation. We exchanged numbers. We had 2 mutual classes and we began getting to know each other.

When we were together I acted with confidence, with a commanding presence. I spoke with low pitch and tried to keep the frame. I was teasing her a lot, but not annoying her. But there was something wrong. She didn't throw any shit tests or I failed to notice them badly. So my first question is why didn't she shit test me? Another thing is we didn't text each other except for basic questions like how do I login to school's website. We didn't text each other to meet at campus or go to lunch together.

I knew I had to take action not to end up in friendzone. The second week of college, the previous thursday, I asked her if she is free Friday night which she replied no because she needed to go to her hometown(she stays in dorm). She asked "Why did you ask?" and I replied "I was planning to take you to cinema or something. we could have fun but anyway. see you tomorrow." It's clear that she had to reject me because she bought a bus ticket. Anyway my second question is, is it better to ask someone out face-to-face or by texting?

The friday everthing went normal, we went class and lunch together etc. Fast forward to today. We were hanging and socializing and shit at a students clubs headquarters. She was talking to other guys which of course made me jelaous but I remained cool and kept talking with other people. Before leaving, I asked her if she is free this thursday night so we can hang around. She replied that she will meet her friends at another university so she could not come with me. She implied that she will be around at the club's headquarters(she is saying that she has no interests going out with me). I think she wants me as an orbiter which is something I won't be.

To conclude, I know that I wasn't alpha enough but there is a huge improvement when I compare myself to past myself. I know I fucked up but I don't know what I did wrong exactly. In a country with a shitty genetic pool, a 8/10 is way more valuable but I know that I have to next her and move forward. Firstly, I wonder how do I understand if she is still interested? Secondly, is it possible to play the redpill game perfectly and still get rejected? I know I was far away from being perfect but with an average face, tall body and confidence, I wasn't expecting this result. And lastly, how should I keep my relationship with her?
