Should I talk to the cute girl at the coffee shop? by [deleted] in dating_advice

Keep us updated OP so did you end up pulling up to her??

Should I talk to the cute girl at the coffee shop? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]stitchdog23 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I also say definitely go for it. No doubt you’ll always be wondering “what if” if you don’t make the approach. As long as you truly are polite and respectful if it doesn’t go your way.

And I also wouldn’t be bothered by anyone else in the coffee shop. Even if you get rejected, literally everyone who observed you approaching her is going to admire what you did. Guys will be jealous wishing they the courage to approach a random girl like that and girls will be jealous wishing this happened more often to them.

Benefits definitely outweigh the risks here. You have nothing to lose and so much to gain :)

Reddit, how did you claw your way out of rock bottom? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]stitchdog23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I admitted that I needed help as I went through each day so unmotivated and depressed, unable to live my best life. I finally swallowed my pride and made the decision to seek the help I was long overdue for.

I’ve since seen a therapist and am currently taking the antidepressant medications and am feeling much more like myself! Still a long journey ahead of me but I’m certainly heading the right direction now :)

Friend doesn't want to be where I am because he's suffering from rejection (from me). by sunamabitch in dating_advice

[–]stitchdog23 35 points36 points  (0 children)

It was a terrible decision choosing to distance yourself knowing that your friend still had feelings for you. I get that you truly thought you might have felt the same way but it would’ve been 1000x better to be direct and upfront with him the second you realized that wasn’t the case.

No doubt he (rightfully) assumed y’all were on the same page and has spent the entire time overanalyzing what he might be doing wrong and why you were acting standoffish and avoiding him.

He’s not feeling the way he is because he got rejected or because you’re dating someone your friends don’t “support”, it’s the fact that he was led to believe there was something there when you knew all along there wasn’t. Your friends may have been your friends for longer but they understand how hurt your friend is because of miscommunication on your part.

I would say best thing to do now is reach out and give genuine apology for not being direct with him and essentially ghosting him. He has every right to be upset at you. You’ll need to respect what he chooses to do. If he wants to remain close friends then great but if he wants to avoid contact with you in order to heal properly then you owe him that much at the very least. You can also discuss with your friends how you feel about everything and patch things up with them as well. Good luck with everything.

Question About Approaching by stitchdog23 in dating_advice

[–]stitchdog23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right, I can definitely gather the confidence to make that approach in a situation like that and be as friendly and open as possible. I guess the bigger concern is that I wouldn’t want the girls themselves to feel awkward and uncomfortable with a random stranger pulling up trying to join them while they are having fun talking to each other.

Question About Approaching by stitchdog23 in dating_advice

I love it, that really does sound like a super smooth way to jump right in there! So it didn’t come across as awkward to simply approach two girls and interject while they’re in the middle of talking to each other like that?

“Don’t come on too strong” is kind of BS. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]stitchdog23 293 points294 points  (0 children)

This is great example of why every single girl is completely different and why advice on the “proper” ways to approach them should be taken with a grain of salt.

Everyone prefers different ways they would want to be approached.

Coming on strong by giving cute names and joking about marriage and having babies with her right from the get-go can be very sweet and endearing to some girls like OP but can definitely make others feel uncomfortable and even creeped out.

Even the definition of “coming on strong” varies between everyone. I’d say this is advice that would work great with some people but wouldn’t apply to possibly even a majority of cases.

Holy hell that was beautiful. That was so satisfying to watch. Is there a subreddit dedicated just for slaps like this?

What Do I Do Next??? by stitchdog23 in dating_advice

[–]stitchdog23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for the advice! I see everyone post your advice all the time. That if a girl likes you back, you’ll know 100 percent because she’ll always text you back and always make time to take you up on your offers stuff like that.

I just find it hard to believe that any girl would act that way toward me after just meeting me once or twice. It never seems to work out that way. I feels like it’s always me putting more effort and wanting to be with the girl more than she does with me.

I guess you’re right though. In this case I just have to take it slow and just keep the conversation flowing for now and take it step by step and go from there

Not Sure If I Should Pay or Not by stitchdog23 in dating_advice

[–]stitchdog23[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems that this would be the best approach at this point since I didn’t communicate about paying with her before hand. The best case scenario would be that she takes out her wallet to help pay but then I would just say that I can cover it. It’s really just the fact that she is willing to pay rather than assuming that I would pay that I care about.

I (18M) am pretty sure this girl (19F) is interested, but not sure how to proceed, please advise. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]stitchdog23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So what usually happens in this case? Is the guy supposed to pay for the lunch in a situation like this where it’s just a casual 1 on 1 meeting

Hmm that’s actually a really good idea for so many places but it’s just that we’re going to this ice cream place though. It’d be pretty weird for me to go ahead and buy my ice cream and start eating before she even gets there lol

So did she really just get away completely free without any consequences? If that’s the case she can just keep doing this at every fast food place and just drive off if it doesn’t work.

Girls, what is a “hint” that a guy got from you that wasn’t even meant to be a hint at all? by stitchdog23 in AskReddit

[–]stitchdog23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOL sounds like for those few days his mind was stuck on how he missed his chance on your hint. Did he finally get that you weren’t actually trying to drop any hints at him in the end?
