OP tried too hard. She could smell his desperation.

Just one other bit of advice and one follow-up question...

Personally, I wouldn’t let it impact my morale or self esteem at all that she would only go on multiple group dates in public places with me during a pandemic.

After date #2, when your confidence was strongest that you almost posted about it here, what was your ABC (Always Be Closing) line/move that you used to shoot your shot?

Did you have Dave Matthew’s “Say Goodbye” or some other song with converting friendship into lovers lyrics queued up in your vehicle to subtlety play?

Did you send her some suggestive emojis?

Did you intentionally spill something on your shirt and then take it off in front of her to change? (giving her a good look at the body that you had been sculpting for her)?

Did you tell her that she looked tense and started massaging her shoulders without asking?

no offense, because you sound like a nice guy.
but is this what dating is now?

it sounds so beta.
what happened to just asking a girl on a date?
when did having a conversation with someone about possibly going on a date start?

anyway, good luck to you. at least she was nice in letting you down. but this sounds miserable.

Never ever go on group dates unless you're already exclusive.


Yeah, this is overlooked these days, but true. This happened to me occasionally in HS and college. Things never panned out. It wasn’t even like being on a date. It amounted to one person wanting a shot at a girl, girl didn’t feel the same way, but you all hung out as a group going bowling or to the movies.

Don't worry, Baw. She'll be back. Old baw will dump her in a few more months when he is tired of PIIHB. She will run through a few randos, then have 3-4 boyfriends for 6 months to a year each. She will have one long relationship, (aboot 3 years) with a guy that ends up not wanting to marry her.

7 years from today, you will meet her in a grocery store. She will realize that you have been banking money for 12 years and that she could have access to the cash. She will love you longtime, until the cash is gone. Then she will be gone too. It is such a tangled web but is now the American way.

Good luck.

I did, twice. I'm honestly over it now, so I guess I left the friend zone and we're just friends now?

What kind of emotional mess could a year have brought?


She’s been single for a month now. Plenty of time, and if she’s got anything on the ball and has looks you better jump on that shite right now, like call her up right now, or get something in the works with the quickness. It doesn’t stay long on the open market. If you don’t someone else will. Seize the day...


Never mind. You fricked it up.

No... You apparently do not understand the friend zone. I strongly urge you to seek counsel from SPF, the friend zone expert.

You will be the rebound after she’s done with this guy for good.
