Sounds like it went well.
If she is interested in you she will contact you and set up another time to meet. Go at her pace, I am guessing she is same age as you 16 or so , and does not have alot of experience from life and has no idea what to expect/what she wants.
And what is wrong with having female friends?/ So you wont get laid but most of your male friends wont know that and think you are lucky.
plus you will have a good date for you prom...

Well played.
Now just remember this, and you'll be fine.
NEVER act over zealous. It's just not human nature to be attracted to a lap dog. I don't know what that says about people, nor do I care, because that's the way it is. Guy, girl, straight, gay, yada, yada, yada.
If she keep giving you the "friends" line, cool. Just smile and let her know you're having a good time hanging with her. You are, right?
That's all that matters. Thinking you can control a situation is a fool's errand. Understanding that you are having a good time hanging out with cool, pretty girl - however it may turn out - it what separates the men from the boys.
It'll all work out for the best.

Excellent my pupil!
Now, this is not the time to strike. You must wait, stealthily like ninja. When she finally opens her defenses to her heart you will STRIKE!!!!!!! And she will love you.
You've met her parents, which is odd, it throws a possible kink into our plans. What you must do is always be courteous, polite, and on your toes. If she invites you over for dinner, her parents will surely be there. If they make food that you do not like, I have a trick for that as well... Fork it into your mouth, and instead of mulling it around, pinch yourself as hard as you can and swallow it. This will make you golden in their eyes...
Report back when more occurs, I will give you more sound advice then.

Wouldn't it be ironic if this girl posted the same kind of thread on some other forum, or even more weird if she could read this thread .

Yeah, it would be weird... I can imagen a date going something like this:amacgenius said:Wouldn't it be ironic if this girl posted the same kind of thread on some other forum, or even more weird if she could read this thread
"[Me] Sooo....
[Her] I was reading on a Mac Forum...
[Me] Oh sh**! "
Don't be yourself. It's too difficult. Nobody is completely themselves when they're attracted to someone. They're a better version of themselves ---- a more impressive version. Well, either a better version, or a quieter, more nervous, non-talkative version. Just don't be the latter, be the former. Eventually all masks will fall off and you can learn about each other better.
However, if you see her wearing a mask around you that she doesn't wear around her other guy friends, then that's good. To her, you're different.
Her: So I was at this cybersex site last night, and...
You: Oh yes, I know I know. So anyway, I put on my wizard's hat, and....
Her: Oh ****, you're BloodNinja!? Jerk.

The thing is she really doesn't have any "guy friends" that I know of. Aside from my best friend who is gay, and she just talks to him in her music classes.
It went well. Lots of talking/converstaion in class with her. I have a stupid Robotics competition starting on Thursday until Saturday night, so I think if we do anything, it will have to be this upcoming Sunday.w_parietti22 said:
^^^ great advice
robotics competition eh???? i assume she'll be falling for you when you win first prize.
but seriously, reiterating the need to take it slow, enjoy friendship and whatever comes or doesn't come from it. you're young.

It's not advice, it's what I'd do.
Why would I willingly put myself into a situation where I'm hanging out with a girl who doesn't share the same feelings as myself regarding a relationship or hook up or whatever?
It's seems like it'd be really easy to slip into one of those situations where you end up getting burned because you think there's a chance, when in reality, there wasn't.
Just like she said in the beginning.

It'd only be a waste of time if you didn't enjoy the time spent with her.
I mean, is the end goal of spending any time at all with women to have sex with them? I hope not. Sounds pretty selfish to say "well, she doesn't want to hook up with me right now, so we're through."
As long as it's still fun, just give it a chance and see what happens.
Well, you're just telling him to settle.
If he can't have her in the way he wants, have her in the way she wants.
Okay, that's fine if you're out to find new female friends.
You KNOW the entire time that he's hanging out with her, just as friends, there are going to be a million thoughts running through his head as to how to win her over, or if she really likes him, but isn't saying anything.. mostly irrational thoughts that really do nothing to help him in any way.
The original point was to hang out with her in hopes of hooking up.. if you can't do that, move on. There are plenty of other girls out there.. if you're looking for friends, cool, go for that.. but obviously there is the chance that you're going to "develop" feelings down the road, or initially, which is going to screw everything up.
