tskwared667 What do I do if I feel that she would like me if only I got to show off on a date - but she's hesitant and doesn't make time. As in she doesn't know any better. I feel like I should pursue, but with this brad pitt idea I also feel I shouldn't.
meNtor890 Whenever you ask yourself a maybe question like that she is not into you. No if and or but. You will know if she likes you. If your guessing forget that bitch and move on her lost.
"Oh Bill, movies on a first date? Wrong move, boy-o." Take her eating somewhere instead, you wanna talk, not sit side by side without speakng for two hours... :-P
tojiroh I wouldn't do a movie for the first date except if the date was initiated because of shared interest in a specific movie. Then after the movie a meal can be shared and conversation can be had.
"It's bad manners to talk when stuffing your mouth at the table." FTFY Meals are one of the best ways to socialize, both with dates and friends. Unless you prefer to be the guy that sits down, lays his face to munch on the plate, and gets up without a word. You know, *that* guy.
Last month I asked a woman out 3 times, because I figured she was just hesitant and shy. Then she updated her facebook relationship status a few weeks later. I'm such a cabbage-head.
Youre a pretty cool cabbage head but something similar like this happened to me as well and i was head over heels for her always asking her out and shit because she was a shy and introverted person but she was just plain uninterested in me lmao i thought she liked me though
+Ariesticnig It is entertaining how men are expected to determine whether or not women are interested in dating rather than a woman asserting herself and saying no.
10000%. Even in a work environment where everyone is self-employed... I've never felt it to be a good idea to get involved with a woman i work with. So many ways that could go totally wrong.
@@Saber23 Wow. Reading comprehension really isn't your thing. You're not only a troll, you're an unintelligent troll. Since you're probably also about 14 years old, let me spell it out to you as simply as I can. 99.9% of all relationships break up. Otherwise, you would marry the first person you dated. Even that isn't a guarantee, since 2/3 of marriages eventually end. Therefore, anyone you date at work you are probably going to break up with them, or they with you, eventually. When that happens, I wouldn't want the end of my relationship to become an HR issue, which is a very real possibility if your relationship was with a co-worker. If you can't understand that, you don't need to be on this page where adults are having a discussion. Go download clips of SpongeBob or something.
Is she worth pursuing? Or would it just make things awkward? Use the Brad Pitt Rule to find out! Based on our popular article: www.artofmanliness.com/2008/02/05/the-brad-pitt-rule/
For real man. Heck, we freak out thinking that you think that we think that you're lame when in reality we actually think you're pretty cool and just CAN'T go.
well its kind of understandable that guys think this. Romance, as portrayed in popular culture is all about the guy fighting to win the girl over. If thats your reference, you might think that its just part of a normal romance, she is playing hard to get, to make you go out of your way to get her. Although this might be true for some girls, I would not recommend pursuing them regardless, as that is a huge red flag imo. And thats really the important thing here. imo being "that guy at the office" shouldn't really play any part in your decisions, as you have to risk some to get some.
Sorry for the wedding ring mistake, Lacy warned me about it, and then I forgot once we shot it all. I can assure you, Bill is not a player.. desperate? Yes, but not a player.
I asked a good woman out and she said she couldn’t make it. I never would have called her again, but she ended the call by saying “you will call me again. I’m serious, I’m taking revenge if you don’t.” So I did ask her again. Married 35 years last week.
As a lady who has dated a lot of ladies I can tell you, this is 100 percent the best advice a person could give. If people don't suggest a different time to see you, do not bother. They are not interested. As hard as it is to stop yourself from going crazy with "what if" just don't. Instead just me like "k, well, she/he isn't interested. I won't ask again." and maybe, she/he will actually ask you out or maybe you will never hear from them again BUT at least you can walk away knowing you didn't chase. Also, my advice, never take a rejection personal. It is very rarely personal. It really is a miracle that people fall in love, given how different we all are. It took me a very long time, and a run of really horrible dates to meet my partner but I am so glad I did because all those horrible experiences really showed me what I actually want in a partner. Good luck fellas :)
Temps I disagree with this, some people are shy and it makes them anxious to go out on date or schedule something with someone when you know very little about each other. People can also be hurt be older relationships and are unwilling to trust new people. Showing persistence communicates a certain seriousness and not just treating it as a fling etc. I don't disagree entirely with your statement, it can happen mine and your way. Sometimes just best to use your intuition.
-_- : " Showing persistence communicates a certain seriousness and not just treating it as a fling etc. " I don't completely agree with this. Persisting shows a lack of respect for their "No". If a 'hurt' person repeatedly is shown that their "No" is respected, and they WON'T be chased, they'll then likely recognize that their ''No" won't get them any dates they desire, and will shift the answer to "Yes". If someone is shy and it makes them anxious to go on a date/schedule something with someone... sometimes they have to get over that and think of ways to make that connection in a place/situation that makes them comfortable. Anxiety is something to work through.
I want more of this style. I love the conversational tone and I love the dresses the girls wear, YOWZA! But under-emphasized is the idea that idea that you actually have to get out there and make the effort. The narrator guy told him to do it, but hitting the idea harder would make the point that the girl saying no isn't the end of the world and moving on isn't hard, either.
This video is illustrated in such a way that harkens back to a bygone era. An era where asking a woman out was just THAT straight forward, without them getting completely weirded out.
Holy shit, does the author of this video know me?? I've been using this exact phrase for years! I LOVE IT! SO DAMN TRUE. I ask a girl twice, and if she doesn't suggest a follow up date on the 2nd ask --> Goodbye, your loss.
Like the video shows, There is always a hotter woman that will be into you so If you are wasting your time with a female I say NEXT, general rule when dating multiple of them.
Couple of years ago I asked a girl out and she rejected because she had to study and said she wouldn't go out even if I were Brad Pitt (also no alternative date was offered). So much for the "Brad Pitt rule" lol
The Morticia Adams Rule: if a man asks you out & you have a funeral to go to, invite him along. If he turns out to be a dud or a creep, then hey! You've got a place for his body!
It is not the Brad Pitt rule. Only a desparate as heck girl would drop everything to meet up a guy. It should be called the alternative rule. So if the girl offers an alternative date she is not just making excuses and blowing you off.
I don't agree. 8 months ago I asked a nice girl for a date but she refused 3 times because she said she was busy. She was busy for real because on the fourth time we went out and now she is my girlfriend since 7 months.
+Autarchyan Well, the point of the test isn't really whether or not she is busy. The point is to see if she claims that she is busy and mostly ignores you or if she says she's busy and offers a different timing rather than just being quiet. Now it really depends on the girl herself. My friend's girlfriend was too shy to tell him "how about next week" or whatever it is. Oh and an indication might be "maybe next time" it generally means 2 things (depending on the tone she said it with and some other factors) 1) Fuck off. 2) I can't go today and I don't know when I can but I still don't want to miss out this chance and so I want you to ask me out again.
lol dammit too bad every girl I ask out says "oh I'm busy..." with no suggestion of another day or "I have a boyfriend." Of course I rarely ask a second time (I'll ask like at least four times though if they say they have a boyfriend, of course, just in case she forgot I was her boyfriend) so at least I'm not "that guy at the office." But I am "that lonely loser guy." But hey, when I drop that mixtape this year bitches are totally going to be on that r&b singer guy's d word that was on my single...but you know what? At least I helped make someone else famous.
what you actually should do is NOT waiting for her to give another date time but actually ASK her directly. Something like: "Oh yeah that was actually on a very short notice anyway. Sorry for that. Maybe we could find time together next weekend or in a fortnight?" If she still has no time within a 2 week timespan its pretty clear she just dont WANT to go.
So the Brad Pitt rule is whether a girl would turn down Brad Pitt on a date? I don't I would turn down Brad Pitt if he asked me out. It's fucking Brad Pitt, mate.
So the brad pitt rule is, if you don't get a date a first time and she doesn't suggest another date you should move on? How is that the Brad Pitt rule? That seems like a no brainer rule. CLICKBAIT
Another tip : When talking to girl think yourself as if you are Brad Pitt and BEHAVE like him. That really helps too. (I don't mean copy him, be yourself, but have the confidence of being Brad Pitt, there is a thin line, I hope you see what I mean)
This is great common sense advice. Me, as a non common sense person have insisted thoroughly to what later have turned to be my girlfriend. We're together for almost 3 years, now.
