She's not interested. Don't give her the satisfaction of kissing her ass and begging for attention

this. just move on
[–]pompandpride 28 points29 points30 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She's not even asking for that. This is a textbook decline. Us idiot males eventually learn that women won't just say, "No I'm not interested," because of a combination of not having the nerve to hurt your feelings and concern for the awkwardness/pressure she'll experience when seeing you next.
In idiot male speak, you said, "Are you interest in going out with me?"
And she responded, "No, I'm not."
Just accept that without disappointment or resentment, and find other women to talk to that are interested.

I thought about that too, but we barely talked. Mostly about studies what she is studying or to which country she wants to go for an semester abroad. stuff like that.

So you didn't flirt?
[–]efatih55 9 points10 points11 points 8 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link
Well you are right I guess. I didnt flirt.
[–]throwawaylilbastard 55 points56 points57 points 8 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link
HEY BOY CHILL. I got some sad vibes from you by this answer. Nothing is lost. Forget her for some time, browse the sidebar learn some new shit on how to flirt, tease and be witty and funny and then hit her up again. Practice your skills during the day or by soing nightgame at clubs and/or bars. She gonna love you by then but ti be honest, you gonna find a better girl along the way lol. Happened to me :D

Not to be mean but how can he hit her up when she didn’t give him her number? :)
But for real this dude speaks the truth. Work on yourself and your confidence, the rest comes with.
Hit her up doesn't necessarily mean that you text her.
[–]Pleasure_Island 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Ask for kik, snap, fb or something to message her?

Well almost certainly she is not interested.
There is no reason to not give your phone number if you like someone. Even as friends.
But hey it could be she had a bad experience recently with a guy harrassing her after giving her number. It happens.
But like all of these things. If the chance/statistics are against you don't bother. Ninety percent chance it is not going to happen between you to.
Your efforts are best spend on someone else. If you talk to her if you run in to her no problem. But I would never ask her a second time for her number.
In these initial contacts don't focus on them to much. It is always a crap shoot. You just have to be there at the right place at the right time being the person you are happen to project than.
Just try try and try.
[–]kieflicious 22 points23 points24 points 8 years ago* (1 child) | Copy Link
I like her standards, she allegedly doesn't give just anyone her number. However it sounds like she likes to play games to a degree. So I would have told her "im not just anyone", or "perfect, because I dont give everyone my time" (better smile as you're saying it). She said didnt know for long, i would say "how much time do you have?" Thats just me, if you wanted to salvage it thank her for her time maybe you will see her around and walk away.
Responses have to fit your personality, don't play cocky funny if you can't take it too.
I think you need to ask yourself if she's really worth your time. I personally don't like games and find them extremely agitating, therefore I wouldn't be interested long term or at all. Set boundaries of what is and isn't tolerated, follow your values and beliefs.

Thats what I did, except saying how much time do you have.

Move on. Attraction is simple, it's there or it isn't. Everything else is just excuses
She was being polite, but you got rejected son
[–]StrawberryKiss2559 5 points6 points7 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
This, Op.
If she was into you she would've given you her number. Or Facebook or email or something.
Just move on.
[–][deleted] 5 points6 points7 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
That's a common way of saying "I don't feel attracted enough to you to give you my number"
You'll notice if you attract particularly cold women they'll say something similar: "I don't normally give my number away, but ... (proceeds to give number)". It's just a natural defense most women have.
Just take this as a rejection, since anything you might try after this point will just look needy. Just take it as a learning experience. Next time, increase the escalation and attraction more before the number close to increase your chances.
[–]weallwantsomethink 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link
I agree, it is some of the first things you think of. Someone ask you for something personal to share.
Your response naturally is: "I don't share ... with anyone".
Basically saying she doesn't see any point in getting more personal with you.
[–]decadearray 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
On the “she’s not interested meter,” this is MAN THE LIFEBOAT!!!!!
Smarten and harden the fuck up.
[–]Beach_Day_All_Day 9 points10 points11 points 8 years ago* (1 child) | Copy Link
It's possible you didn't work in enough game. It's possible she didn't get to know you enough to feel comfortable like she said. It's possible you didn't entice her to hang out again.
She might have someone else shes interested in but didn't feel the need to bring it up. There's a million possible reasons and it's not worth wondering about for too long, but for whatever reason she didn't want to give u her number.
A lot of girls would actually just give you their number but never actually respond, or a fake one, so she actually did you a really nice solid by rejecting you and giving you the reason why, but opened you up to future possibilities.
I'd say just take the mental note that next time you approach you might want to talk longer, flirt a bit, switch up the conversation to be more personal and not just usual college smalltalk, and give girls a reason to want to hang out with you again.
I don't believe in "friendzones". Since you're at the same school there's a very real possibility that you'll socialize again and things could still happen, but don't lean on that possibility. Just be cool with her while you keep approaching other girls. Not only will this make your game sharper and build your confidence, she might even see you with other girls and start to change her mind. But once again, dont bet on it.
In my opinion it's okay it have girls you're cool with and they can help you meet other girls, but each situation is different.
Don't chase, but keep her in "striking distance" so you'll be ready to strike when she opens up to take a hit, if that makes sense. But don't fantasize about her and shit like that.
Thanks for the advice !

You have just experienced a polite decline, my friend. There's absolutely nothing confusing about, "Well, if we randomly run into each other later, I will continue to converse politely with you so that your asking me out doesn't become awkward."
[–]Slackstar69 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
She doesn't like you. Move on.
If she liked you she'd have given it to you.
Now if you keep asking and asking for her number you'll seem desperate and definitely won't get it.
Maybe if you just ignore her for a while she'll come back to you.
[–]BeastAP23 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She dont want you
[–]domino1995 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She's trying to let you down easier by saying you can talk when you run into each other. I hate to be negative to you man, but girls usually hand out their number pretty easily, so she's really really not interested at all
[–]Givemerachel 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I do the same exact thing. Some women simply aren't comfortable giving out their phone numbers to people that they barely know (there are too many stalkers & weirdos in the world). Don't think too much into it, ask her if there's another form of communication that she feels comfortable with.
[–]lambo2011 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Yeah, forget her and move on dawg

Not enough attraction. You can try to build more, but definitely game other chicks and don't focus on this one anymore.
You haven't displayed enough value or displayed too much IOI (indicator of interest)
[–]TroiasAchilles 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Not interested
[–]Smigg_e 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Start ignoring her and not giving a fuck about her and I guarantee she'll start giving you attention.
Give all her friends attention. Ignore her
[–][deleted] -1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Next.
She would give out her phone number to Chad.
[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points-1 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
You should never ask for a number, if you're doing things right she will give you her number because she will be enthusiastic to meet you again.
[–]ImJustSo 3 points4 points5 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
You should never ask for a number
Unless she hints at it.
[–]Beach_Day_All_Day 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Most girls not only expect a guy to ask, they insist that they do so.
[–]Luffydude -2 points-1 points0 points 8 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link
It's a shit test to ascertain your value, to pass it you can just reply with "cool me neither, looks like we're on the same boat haha so anyway... Let's exchange instagrams". DONT look butthurt angry and DONT give a beta "oh okay..", both of these will make you fail the shit test hard
Instagram is so much better than number these days. If you don't have one set up then just go for snap chat instead. Girls will gladly want more people on social media and less creeps texting/calling them on the phone
Edit: downvote me all you want but this is solid advice tested and proved. Not that I expect much since the top comment is "she's not interested". I guess most people just give up over small hurdles
[–]Not_unique_enuf -4 points-3 points-2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Get her fb. Get to know her more than go for the number.
[–]hc_fella -5 points-4 points-3 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
I'd say just add her on facebook. I use facebook messenger as my most used tool to text girls (people in general) and the barrier for entry is a lot lower. In college the barrier for meeting people is incredibly low (as is adding people on social media), but i only have the numbers of the people that i need to be able to reach anytime.
[–]rich_fletch 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Right, because girls love it when they say 'no' to guys, then the guy acts like a stalker and tracks them down on FB. Guess the strategy after this is to like everything she posts?
[–]hc_fella 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Just in general, i agree that he shouldn't continue with her in particular. But in somewhat closed communities like facebook it's really easy to find and add people just by their first name. This is just my personal experience though.
[–]Luffydude 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Don't bother, seems people on this thread are too close minded and/or just have sucky social media
Anyone failing to see how much safer is a facebook or an instagram when compared to a phone number is just out of touch with reality
[+]Ninokun -8 points-7 points-6 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
lol, she would give the Phone Number to Chad Thundercock in 2 seconds.
