Yes she sounds like a very cool girl. She didnt even have a real problem with it and even joked about it. She likes you bro
[–]kylefofyle[🍰] 59 points60 points61 points 4 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link
Or.. maybe she took killing the competition a little too literally
[–]meogdon[S] 28 points29 points30 points 4 years ago (22 children) | Copy Link
Yes and I’m also wondering if she’ll be thinking about her in moments where we are not talking. It can create problems down the line you know🤔
[–]NoFaiIing 60 points61 points62 points 4 years ago (14 children) | Copy Link
Yeah but she sounds really down to earth, most girls wouldn’t of texted you after seeing that imo. She probably has or had a dating app also she she probably understands the hustle. If the text happened a month into a relationship it woulda been bad, but the first time meeting is just bad timing and she prob gets that.
[+]meogdon[S] -55 points-54 points-53 points 4 years ago (13 children) | Copy Link
But I like to make a girl think that I’m talking to her only because that can make her feel special and keep you in the mystery zone at the same time.
[–]Ma_1ik 32 points33 points34 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She feels special already because you approached. She’s more than likely talking to many more guys than you anyway.
[–]Fufi44 35 points36 points37 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
So you wanted to manipulate her and now you won’t be able to use that as a way to do so.
🙄🙄
I was going to comment something positive until I saw that line.
Sigh.
[–]CarPeriscope 9 points10 points11 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
yea seriously what the fuck lmao
[–]denardos 7 points8 points9 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Really? Why not just relax and be yourself, instead of trying to manipulate the situation?
[–]CarPeriscope 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
either dude is fucked up mentally for being that manipulative or he’s trying to sound cool on the internet, either way, not a good look…
[–]themolarmass 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Don't lie, it's a bad strategy. Just be honest and say yes you are messaging other people. But obviously if things take off with this girl you can stop messaging the others.
[–]ReefLedger 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
But you're not if you're still fucking around on POF. Nothing wrong with being honest and testing the market. And other women wanting you=value. Just don't give her the impression you are only talking to her while dicking around on the side or you're going to have a BAD time. Been there. Fuck that.
[–]NoFaiIing 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
I would just joke about how bad that timing was and you deleted the app because you’re talking to her now. She now knows that you can get girls so shell prob feel more protective over her man which is a plus.
[–]JetPillar 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
So in other words lie?
[–]NoFaiIing 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
No he should actually delete the app
[–]JetPillar 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Gotcha
[–]maplemario 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
That’s a bad strategy
[–]obamainmypajama 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Bro fucking have your friend's name saved as a girls and have him text you 'you wanna see something Hun?' every time you trynna get a girls number.
G, this is social proof, this shows u got options. Ain't nothing othing better than this.
If you are gonna manipulate atleast do it right lol. This isn't the 1600 and you're not a knight.
Don't try to save her or make her feel too special unless proven otherwise, these women will squish you the first chance they get.
I've seen the most innocent girls turn into devils so, it is what it is.
[–]Ma_1ik 15 points16 points17 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
No it can’t… you’re over thinking it bud.
[–]thegreyone3000 10 points11 points12 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
I agree with the OP comment dude. Think about it, her seeing that girl on POF send a message is going to be basically telling the girl in the shop that you’ve already been pre-selected by other women, which makes you look more appealing as a potential partner. It couldn’t have been timed more perfectly imo! Lucky you 😂
Edit* sort of like reading good reviews on Amazon about a certain product… “well if they think it’s good, then surely it must be” type of deal. You get me 😉

Not sure what phone you got but does dnd still work if it’s unlocked and being used? Swear it don’t for iPhones.
But yeah man it’s weird but apparently that’s true and as we see in this post, it’s made the women come across as she’s motivated and determined to get him so it is what it is 🤣
[–][deleted] 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
[–]thegreyone3000 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Haha! I’ve never actually thought of doing that and it could come across as organic sure 🤣 worth a shot bro.
Lol, good luck getting them to text you how a potential girlfriend would though.
[–]human8ure 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Of course you are dating and talking to other people, she would expect that. It just tells her that you aren’t super available and desperate. This is perfect. AND she didn’t let it bother her? Dude. Cool chick.
[–][deleted] 45 points46 points47 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She is literally telling you she’s into you. Tf you mean should you move forward??
[–]TheManSpider1 41 points42 points43 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Don’t overthink it, she sounds like a fun girl
[–]Ma_1ik 37 points38 points39 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It’s not even awkward, she being funny asf😂
[–][deleted] 22 points23 points24 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Bruh that's really attractive girls like guys who other girls like... never apologize for it
[–]User_1421 13 points14 points15 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
This actually worked in your favor and you dont even know it haha
[–]InsideWay6141 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I think the OP does know. I could be wrong, but I suspect he is trying to appear humble while bragging about it covertly.
[–]Ecstatic-Flounder-48 25 points26 points27 points 4 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
Stupid question but what does pof mean?
And this is better for you cuz she knows you got options and you don’t sit at home inside all day. You’re no simp.
[–]meogdon[S] 22 points23 points24 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Pof is plenty of fish. It’s a dating site. Good point my man! I just not use to involving other females when I’m on a date
[–]Ecstatic-Flounder-48 23 points24 points25 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
My ex pushed me to be exclusive after she saw my phone buzz with a new tinder match. It pushed her to act because she knew that I could leave and I had options.
Honestly, this is one of the best things that could happen to you.
[–]thegreyone3000 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
This! Exactly is the way, if they see you in a situation like this it makes you more desirable (if done correctly of course lol, meaning, don’t deliberately flirt with a girl in front of her to trigger that. It has to be organic)
[–]500Ovechkin2 points 4 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link
Facts. A guy w/ abundance is a guy worth trying for

This word/phrase(pof) has a few different meanings.

You tell her that if she plays her cards right, "POF girls name" will be lost to the dusty halls of antiquity.
[–]IAmCalhoun 5 points6 points7 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Yea man. She can’t be mad you already in the game. And she seems to enjoy the challenge. That’s a win all around.
[–]Big_Eye_6420 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Hey brother if she had a problem with it she would of never gave you her phone number
[–]dirtysideacc2020 5 points6 points7 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She's literally telling you she wants to replace that other girl. If you wanna be brazen, you could actually tell the pof girl about that. Like "So, I met a girl the other day, and when she was giving me her number, a message from you popped up on my phone. She later sent me a text telling me to tell you that your days with me are numbered. 😜" Maybe word it more smoothly than I did just now 😅
[–]500Ovechkin5 points 4 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link
Right on, she’s attracted and nice enough to have brought it up, keep on it. Other girls would care less but she seems cool.
[–]Adventurous_Gene_692 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Bro you actually got lucky with the timing that text gave you preselection and gave her competition anxiety
[–]BulletReaper 11 points12 points13 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Sounds like she’s still interested. But future pro tip, turn off dating app notifications. Just leave the apps on your Home Screen so you can see if you have a new message or match.
[–]meogdon[S] 5 points6 points7 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Well in this case it was a text message not an app notification lol but the same rule still applies. I will try to turn off cell data in the future
[–]BulletReaper 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Oh my bad I misread it. But ya I personally keep my phone notifications on sleep whenever I’m out of the house to avoid situations like that haha
[–]BetaCuckSimp 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It’s definitely good if she thinks you’re talking to other women. Don’t let it be awkward
[–]FlanneryODostoevsky 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Damn I dont miss being young
[–]iamcgome 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Embrace the awkwardness, own up to it and you will be respected if you try to hide it she will know and will smell the beta in you
[–]MeganMars3 points 4 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link
Dude, go for it!! She is into you big time with a response like that!
[–]Accooler99 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Wait you’re actually getting real human matches on pof? I downloaded it a month ago and literally 90% scammers
[–]etherealromance 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It’s only an issue if you make it one. Picking up girls is usually messy, not super smooth. Your success will largely depend on your response to the elements of randomness in a giving interaction.
[–]IntroMystique 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It’s not something that I would ‘like’ to happen in front of another woman. Usually when I’m with women I’ll put my phone on silent or turn off notifications. I don’t want to appear ignorant or as though I’m texting several other women.
However, when it’s innocently done, it can show pre-selection. It shows that there are other women in your life. Women bring women.
It’s not something I’d be embarrassed about or feel awkward about. It’s something I’d just laugh at.
Plus: she saw the humour in it.
[–]izysolo 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Whats POF? I Googled it and it said Plenty Of Fish, but not sure if that's the right abbreviation in this story. Anyone? Help?
[–]DontEatTheFish25 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Sounds more like flirting than awkwardness to me bro, I say go for it.
[–]em2511rah 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I really don’t get the problem here. Not only could you show that you’re “wanted” without coming off as a douche, she also said something along the lines of “you’re mine now”. This little accident, or bad timing as you say it, upped your chances a lot without any effort from your side. Stay confident but try not to come off as too cocky and you’re good to go! And don’t apologize for anything regarding what she saw!
[–]FaithInStrangers94 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
You’re the one being boring/awkward about it really.
She seems like a cool girl
Also plenty of fish is full of bots, catfish, and sex workers
[–]pinkelephants777 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She’s trying to make the situation less awkward for you, it sounds like she’s really into you and has a good sense of humor! You’re on a roll here:)

[–]Thest0rm_99 -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Pre selection is one of the most attractive traits a man can have. I was dating a girl a few months ago who was very anxious about whether or not she was able to satisfy me. We once got into my car and she saw my neck gaiter that I wear in public cuz covid. Without any moments hesitation she assumed it was a pair of some girls panties. She wasnt even mad or sad, just extremely anxious and concerned. She genuinely seemed like she needed to ask or it was gonna break her brain, but she also seemed like she didnt wanna upset me by asking.
That is the kind of competition anxiety you need to install into the mind of every girl you deal with. If she isnt worried about losing you to another girl, you are inviting her to walk all over you. Competition anxiety is the only way you can get girls to walk on eggshells for you the way married men walk around their wives.
[–]ReefLedger 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Second paragraph is spot on and should be a post by itself.
[–]Thest0rm_99 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I will do that. Thanks for suggesting.
[–]JosephBlowFish -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It just means you’re pre-selected. It is a demonstration of higher value.
[–]TAA180 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Wtf is pof?
[–]Ecstatic-Flounder-48 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Plenty of fish. Apparently it’s a dating site
[–]LifesMysteries0 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Yes, she is interested and I interpret her comment as just razzing you.
[–]vanfourello 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
So she’s joking about it, that’s nice! As per the situation, you could try to joke about such in the future- like - you need to hurry up, pretend to disqualify her. If you approached her very well and she has interest in you, that’s not a big deal, as we see in your situation! Just do not overthinking it
[–]Alextryingforgrate 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Just own it and keep talking to her if she starts to ghost just move on you sound like your doing fine.
[–]Lifedeather 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
So confused. What does pof by her name mean?
[–]meogdon[S] 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Plenty of fish. It’s a dating site
[–]Lifedeather 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Oh I see, thanks for the quick response. I am not on top of my game with this dating lingo
[–]meogdon[S] -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
No worries. You’re good. It’s actually not dating lingo but the name of a dating site
[–]Lifedeather 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Oh! Thanks for the correction again, new to all this and I’ll try to check out the website. Thanks!
[–]waverunnr 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
That text was perfectly timed. Shows her you have options.
[–]TheSunshineMan 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

[–]RobertoStrife 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Sounds like she's handling it in a pretty cool way to be honest, her joke clearly shows that she's interested and not feeling awkward about it. The awkward comes from you.
