if you want her, jus ask her. if she freezes up than she was never into you in the first place, not matter how you try to define it.
LET ME TELL YOU GUYS A STORY, PLEASE:
When I was 20 I got to know a girl. I wasn't into her that much in the beginning, but thought she was kinda good-looking and seemed to be nice. So we started dating. She was all over me. In the beginning I said something like I had never been in a relationship and that I was afraid to ever get into one (which was the truth) and she said something along the lines of 'we can work that out, can't we?
'..or whatever.
She had always told me she had only wanted to see her former boyfriends like 3 or so times a week..more thant that would be too much for her. She was that kind of chick...
Then I stayed over at her house (we didn't even have sex, yet)..made out..fooling around blabla..we woke up the next day and had breakfast (her parents were gone) and she starts showing me where the friggin plates are saying: 'you better try to remember where they are. I'd like you to be here a lot more often in the future
))'.
She also said: 'I want this every single day from now on' (remember the type of girl who only wanted to see her boyfriends like 3 times a week blabla).
I remember walking home from her house to my home thinking to myself: "****..I don't even know if I wanna get with her and she's literally drooling over me as if we were a couple, yet"..it had me thinking like crazy until I decided I should be fair and give it a chance ;-).
Then my one friend keeps bothering me asking me if I'm together with that girl or what's going on between us (after he had seen us like 2-3 times). So I'm chatting with her on AIM as usual (THE SAME DAY I woke up at her house and she was drooling over me) and I tell her about my friend who asked me that question.
She says: "so what did you reply?"
Me: something along the lines of "I said, we weren't together, yet, but might be soon".
Her: Oh...so what makes you think that? I don't know about that, yet.
And from that point one she would only have time like once every 10 days (12 hours after saying: "I want this every day from now on" and showing me where the plates in her family's kitchen are). I ended up having oneitis and decided to never talk to her again.
That is until a year later or so lol..and then when I asked her about it she told me that..yea in the beginning she maybe wanted more..she didn't lie to me..but somehow her feelings must have changed blabla. (yeah they magically changed in the 12 hours between drooling over me and my brining up the exclusiveness topic).
I haven't read any book on "picking up" nor do I want to have slick game and watch what I say everytime I speak to a chick and overanalyze this stuff..that just wouldn't be fun. I am glad I learned the basics like 'be a man'..and dont act like a wussie thinking it's you, when it's really just what you were made to believe your whole life by holywood movies. Just like we are turned on by female chicks..the whole cute thing and stuff, most chicks are turned on by the male thing. Just like we dont want a dyke, they dont want a guy who's a wuss.
So that being sad, I really only care for the 'basics' and before that had happened to me, I might have said something similar like "you guys are overanalyzing this stuff! Either she wants to be with your or not! Simple as that!". But now, I'll never again be the first one to bring up the topic of exclusiveness LOL.
P.S.: During the 4 years that passed I also remember a female friend of mine dating this guy..and she was always completely wondering if they were together or not..like when I asked her she was like "I don't know.." and "we've been dating for a few months, now, but I dont know..weve never talked about it...so im not sure"...and it was like close to a year later, when she was finally convinced that they were boyfriend and girlfriend (they're still together). Maybe she wouldn't have turned him down if he had brought the topic up...maybe most chicks aren't as extreme as the one I had to deal with..but I could sure tell the whole wondering if the guy would be her boyfriend or if not did get her panties wet lol.
