Just a quick disclaimer - I've read up on Amused Mastery, I'm in the process of reading Models, and I've been a TRP lurker for perhaps 6 months now. I'm not saying by any means that I'm an expert, or even anything other than a novice, but I have a basic grasp of the key concepts and ideas, so I'm simply looking for advice from the more experienced RP-ers here, so if there's stuff in the sidebar or on the essential reading list, let me know. Oh and also, if it make any difference, I'm looking for dating with eventual potential to become an LTR if all goes well - I'm not just looking to get laid.
I'm living in dorms this year at my university, and as a second year, I've noticed that I get a lot more attention from the first years this year than I did last year, when I was a freshman myself. Despite this, I've found myself developing oneitis with this girl I happen to live with. She's seeing a guy (not what I'd call a full Alpha) and they're at the stage where they're sleeping together but there is little-to-no commitment yet. Despite him being - from my perspective - nothing particularly special, she's obsessed with him, even though we're only a few weeks into the semester. I feel like I'm holding frame relatively well, not just obliging her every time she asks for something, and I'm trying to remain distant enough to avoid becoming an orbiter.
Now, I've been working on her, trying Amused Mastery, and utilised some of this tips given here with her, as well as some rudimentary push-pull (which she responds particularly well to) but still don't seem to be getting anywhere fast with her. We kissed on a night out recently - but let's be honest, that doesn't really count - so I'm still yet to make a breakthrough, despite my efforts.
So basically, I'm just wondering if there's anything I can do (other than the obligatory answers that appear in every thread like this i.e. "Next her.") to either AMOG this guy and make some headway with this girl, or not even bother trying to one-up the competition and instead focus soley on her. Opinions are welcomed, especially if you can give me a few pointers rather than just criticise. Thanks.
TL;DR - Got the beginnings of oneitis for this girl who's started seeing another guy (but without any commitment yet). Keen to push on with her, looking for advice on how to proceed.
