I'm much better at giving advice for specific girls.

The general approach is to not be covered in anything smelly when you talk to them. Unless that smelly stuff is cologne. Unless they hate cologne. Or if they're turned on by guys who've just worked out at the gym. I don't know just...carry a selection of aerosol scents. Spray them in different places in the building, see where she stands.

I'm missing something important when you missed something just as important about my comment. I'm not asking for advice on "how to girl". If I were, my comments would be a handful of paragraphs long with stories and shit for interpretation. My point is that saying "Just be respectful", while true, is on par with telling someone to "look for a job" when someone asks why they can't get a job. It doesn't really help anyone, unless the guy was extremely vague in his request for help and you're offering the advice to get him to be a little more specific.

this might be your problem here. women are extremely complex, and they're all different
you cant really talk to a chick you just met at a party the same way you would with a friend you've known for years
some girls are more sensitive than others, and you have to treat them accordingly. on the other hand, I know a handful of girls who don't mind be treated like 'one of the guys'
that being said, and I may just be rephrasing what vax wrote, but there is no surefire guaranteed 100% way to get a girl to like you

tbh reyo is better off treating a girl like he would treat person. girls aren't magical unicorns or w/e that have to be handled a certain way. don't go lighting your farts in front of her right off the bat but don't think "oh shit it's a girl, oh shit i better walk on eggshells."

just treat people like people

honestly guys being respectful and yourself is pretty much the only advice that works. i know it's vague and general but it's honestly the only advice that is really true for every girl out there. if she likes your personality and you share enough interests and she finds you attractive and she doesn't have any other kind of emotional issue preventing her from forging a relationship, it WILL happen. the candy and flowers and fancy dinner dates are just a plus, a nice thing you do to show her you care. and even then, don't go overboard. Girls know when you're trying to impress her with things she probably won't normally get once the relationship becomes steady.

i know it seems way too simple but i promise that's all there is too it. if she isn't interested then she probably isn't worth it. it might feel like an eternity and you may feel ~so ronery but i promise you'll find the perfect girl for you and at the perfect time. take it from someone who's been there :>

That's a lot better advice, because it's specific enough to where people might not know they have to actively try to do it. I've found myself subconsciously thinking that in front of women before snapping back to reality and telling myself that I shouldn't have to do that.

Which is then followed by me lighting my own farts in front of them. I'm a romantic like that.

I'd like to emphasize the 'if' parts in here - being yourself isn't going to be a magical ticket to dating. If someone doesn't like your personality when you 'be yourself,' that's it. Accept that it didn't work and find someone else. This step may have to be repeated many times before it actually works.

((Ha ha look at me go, pretending to be qualified to give advice when my last first/last relationship lasted a month and a half.))

I still stand by what I said and that it was not advice but a veiled warning.

Dating advice and stories and all these other things are like mythical creatures some wont believe you and other will marvel at the mystical unicorn you describe.

Sometimes it works, other times it gets you chased out the door by a crazy wielding a shotgun

Might not actually go on a date with this girl after all, the last message I sent her was over a week ago and she still hasn't answered

We'll see

I know that feel. I just can't understand how that happens. It's rude as shit. Or it's scatterbrained as shit if she seriously forgot to respond to your message...for a whole week!

Either way it's not a very good reveal of character.

More than likely she's blowing you off :[ I've seen it way too many times. They lead the guy on because it's fun but when he actually thinks she's interested in him she basically is like oh shit and then drops off the face of the world.

It's extremely irritating. Especially when you're in your 20s and they STILL DO IT.

If you ever feel alone rest assured they probably do it to their platonic friends too :/
