I met a girl end of school last year, went on a couple dates over the summer and we've been seein each other regularly during the school year. I hang out with her 3-4 times weekly and we always have a good time. I got close with her.

Ive brought it up in the past that Id like to start a relationship and she said yes at first, only to say "we should take things slower" a day later. She continued to call me and try to hang out so I went with it.

So I brought it up again "we hang out a lot and stuffs good, i want you to be my girl" she gave me "lets hang out more, stuff will fall into place"

I just feel like things are going too slowly and stuff might get stale. What can I do to progress stuff?

Either she's just not that into you and wants to play the field or perhaps your reputation precedes you? Are you a player? Do you often date more than one girl at a time without any of them being aware of it? Maybe she is immature and not ready for an intimate relationship.

Sorry I don't have a more finite answer for you.

It could be that she's decided she doesn't want to be "in" a relationship right now, but she still wants the company/attention/affection. Some people have that weird line when it comes to being "in" a relationship.

That said, it's not fair if she's using you as a pseudo-boyfriend without committing the effort back to you. If you don't want this to continue, simply don't let her. If she's going to continue using you to her own ends and you're not happy with that, you have to let her know that and if she doesn't take you seriously you should leave.

Hell, if you feel like you're being played for a sap now you should leave, it's not cool to do that to someone else.

What time period are you at right now? That is to say, how long have you been "hanging out" with her? Have you kissed, held hands, fallen asleep together, etc? What's happened physically?

We have kissed, we hold hands, weve fallen asleep together, played around a little bit.

I do kinda feel like im playin the bf role and shes playing the gf role but she just refuses to make it official.

She's stringing you along, no ultimatum just cut back on the time you spend with her and make her work at it if she really wants you to stick around..no matter what you think right now there's tons of woman out there that would be equally as good as her or better.

I need some better advice, I am looking as to more or less how to seal the deal.
I don't need philosophy here guys. Ive already decided Id like her to be my girl.

And with ultimatum, cmon now. If someone came up to me saying "go out with me or else i won't talk to you again.", I would tell em to go screw themselves and I wouldnt want to talk to them anyways.

I need some better advice, LMAO :biggrin1: You have been given great and accurate advice. You just don't like it because it's not what you want to hear.:rolleyes::mad: I am looking as to more or less how to seal the deal. You cannot seal a deal with a girl who doesn't want a contract with you! I don't need philosophy here guys. No, but you do need to get a clue. She is not interested in you. It is time for you to cut bait and go fish in another pond! I've already decided I'd like her to be my girl. LOL :biggrin1: How nice for you! :tongue:I have decided that I want Blocko to be my sex slave . . . that doesn't mean it will happen in this life or the next.

And with ultimatum, cmon now. If someone came up to me saying "go out with me or else i won't talk to you again.", I would tell em to go screw themselves and I wouldnt want to talk to them anyways.

There is no way to seal the deal. You can't force her to be your girlfriend. She's not into you as much as you are into her. Do you think she's seeing someone else?

What are your options???? She's dicking you around!!! Sucks to hear it but from what you've described, that's exactly what's happening. Don't be afraid to walk away because otherwise she's just going to keep using you. Doesn't matter if you want her to be your girl. If she's not feeling it, that's the end. Relationships don't work one-way.

The only way to change the situation without letting go or giving her an ultimatum is to...

-- Start admiring other women in her presence (like, "Wow -- I could really nuzzle up to those knockers")

-- If she expects to see you, be unavailable -- say something like, "I'm going out on a date..."

This removes the comfort zone (that you belong to her without her committing to you) -- and she will have to make up her mind on her own.

Sometimes people have to "lose" something before they realize what they had.

Best of all, you won't come across as "needy" -- you'll come across as macho and in control.

If you haven't seen it, go rent the movie "My Best Friend's Wedding" and watch the first 10 or 15 minutes (the rest isn't worth watching IMO).

Good luck.

Sounds like she's playing games.

Although this "be my girl" and "make it official" stuff, I don't get. When I had a girlfriend...many many moons ago...we just started going out places (dating) and then it ended up being "what are you doing here?" "we're goin out" "oh? Right." It was never explicitly said that we were going out, it just happened.

So my advice is, if you really want her, take her out to the cinema or SOMEWHERE. Smooch her. smoochy smoochy smooch smooch.

A lot of girls will "dick you around" btw, don't get too attached! That's what they want...:tongue:

Sounds like you've already told her a couple times you want to be serious. Well, she doesn't. Can;t you tell? I don;t think you have a reputation as was stated before. DOES SHE? Maybe she is this way with ALL GUYS! Who the hell knows? But seriously, if she has told you a couple times she just wants to take it slower and you don't, then you need to leave her alone. Now that she knows you'll hang around and "wait" for her, she can do anything she wants to have the upper hand in the "relationship". Getting serious with someone is a mutual thing, it;s not one sided. Maybe you can use the jealousy card like some have mentioned, but better yet, just forget about her and go after someone else. Hey, we're ALL animals ... males and females. And we are ALL turned on by differnt stimuli. Maybe she likes u but isn't totally "into" you like you are to her. It's no one's "fault", it's nature. Be adult about it and move on. Not like you can FORCE her to be your girlfriend, right?

Sounds like she's playing games. Yup, or maybe her spidey sense is tingling. :tongue: Although this "be my girl" and "make it official" stuff, I don't get. That bothered me as well. It sounds to me like the OP has a tendency to be overbearing, controlling, and domineering. The kind of guy who buys his gf a cell phone so he can keep tabs on her 24/7. :rolleyes::mad: This is probably what she senses and why she is putting him off. When I had a girlfriend...many many moons ago...we just started going out places (dating) and then it ended up being "what are you doing here?" "we're goin out" "oh? Right." It was never explicitly said that we were going out, it just happened. Okay, but that's not happeneing here. So my advice is, if you really want her, take her out to the cinema or SOMEWHERE. Smooch her. smoochy smoochy smooch smooch. LOL thats not gonna work! :biggrin1: Gosh you boys are dumb sometimes. :rolleyes: A lot of girls will "dick you around" btw, don't get too attached! That's what they want...:tongue:
Who are these immature, game playing, brainless wonders you men keep taking about? Where do you find them? Chucky Cheese, Lindsay Lohan Concerts, or the local night schoool? I have NEVER done any of the ridiculous, cruel, and selfish games which some of the men have been on the receiving end of here.

Then maybe she isn't interested. Don't get obsessed with one silly girl, been there, it sucked, I fucked a few real women and now I feel better then ever. Try it out, it's gold.
