This is gonna be a long one; took me a while to write it. While doing so I realised a thing or two, and I feel better now.

I met this girl over a year ago at a party. I was minding my own business and just enjoying myself when she approached me and we started talking about college (I'm a year older and she was interested in the same college I was going to) and soon other things. The connection was quite intense and I was a bit shocked with it. Then a male friend dropped in and started ****blocking so I got pissed and left the conversation. I liked the girl but have forgotten about her soon enought.

A month later, just as she got out of my head, we meet at another party. I notice her and instantly think to myself 'Oh dear, not her'. Yes, I was intimidated by this intense feeling that she had brought up in me. I couldnt talk normally around her and I kept getting shy. I decided to evade her for the rest of the evening. Later when the party was about over, a friend of hers approached me and told me that she liked me and that she got all weepy because I ignored her. I ignored the 'advice' because I couldnt get myself to do anything. (even before her friend approached me I could tell that she was sad)

As I got home I started thinking about it. Next day I decide to ask her out, so I go on a hunt for her phone number. I talk to a mutual friend and she gives me the number but tells me she thinks she lost her phone or something. I send a message and never get the report that she received it. Then im like 'To hell with it, I better forget about all of this'.

Then again a dreaded month later, at new years eve party, we meet. Its ignore and evade on both sides. It went on like this, we would see each other maybe once a month since we sometimes hang out in the same social circle.

Now that I think about it, I think she approached me once with the line 'What are girls like on this college?' and I just stupidly answered 'Theres not much to them.' (this was a week before class started; she entered the same college I was going to) She basically set me up the line 'Cant compare them with you', how blind was I..

Yet another party; Her quite intoxicated friend approaches me and repeats her and mine names a few times and giggles.. (the very same friend that had approached me a year ago) I have this primal instinct to just grab her but I cant; Im too concerned about what she and friends would think.

Im in college, talking to some friends then suddenly she drops by. I lost it; my voice became weak, my hands were shakey, infact my whole body was trembling and i coudlnt even look her in the eyes. She told me 'You look like you lost all hopes' and im 'Nah, im just really tired, thats all'. Few days later i decide to add her on msn. I tell her 'You have a bad influence on me', she responds 'Why?', me 'Because im nervous and my hands are shaking when im around you :p', no answer from her. I remove and block her.

Few days ago I see her again and decide to tell her bluntly that I like her. A friend was with her and I wanted to speak to her alone so I lied that another friend wants to see him about something. I told her 'I like you' but she just ignored me. And thats where it ends.

My thoughts about it. This is a classical example of oneitis and I always act like a pvssy (id use the word afc but i resent it). What im wondering about is whether she still likes me.

Your thoughts? How would you act in this situation? Thanks for the read and info

I'm going to be honest with you. You have 0% chance of this girl liking you.


You told her you were shaking and nervous around her! Thats the end of it right there. No woman would be attracted to you after that. I suggest you read the DJ bible and at least learn the basics in attracting women because at the moment you havn't a clue.


Women are attracted to MEN with high value mindsets. Having a high value mindset means you behave like a high value man. Having a low value mindset means you behave like an AFC. Women are experts at reading your behaviour and can tell if you're an AFC or not.


Saying to her that you were shaking and nervous around her was basically telling her that you're AFC and you've put her on a pedestal. Shes a woman so naturally the attraction she had for you drained away at that point.


When you didn't go talking to her at the second party she thought that you didn't care about her (which tells women you're a good catch with plenty of options) and that made you more attractive in her eyes.


Learn from that experiance, read the DJ bible and you won't make those mistakes again. :up:

The funny thing is I realised that what I had done was afc soon after. I don't have the mindset yet, but atleast the gut feeling that tells you whether something is afc or not is here.

I must admit that I was really down because of this girl. And in a blink of an eye I was enlightened. Why the fvck was I down for? A 'perfect' girl, a 'soulmate' that showed interest? Oneitis? What the fvkc is this thing called oneitis? I read this post and realised that it really was FAKE. Hell I feel great! This episode was a temporal outbreak of weakness; or better said, the fierce culmination of it.

Yet, I'm still worried about my next interaction with her. Not because of her, but because of me; I don't want to act like afc ever again. And I will work hard to get there, I promise myself that.

DJ Bible? Where can I get that? What's the actual name of the book anyway?

So, how does not caring get you the girl? Sure, you get her interested but what then? You approach then she loses interest, or what? Reminds me of 'catch me if you can' game.

P.S. When I had just met her, she acted really needy towards me. This repelled me; not because of 'needy is weak/repulsive by itself', but I was rather frightened by the intensity of her emotions and at the same time I genuinely liked her. Guess there are more similarities between sexes than we think.

I wrote this post as my thoughts came, that's why it seems a bit messy.

O yea, just found this and had a huge laught. Read it, the advice is basically the same we give just for women. So freakin funny. This again makes me think that we alienate the sexes too much.

Yep its just you building her up in your own mind. Best way to deal with oneitis is to stop thinking about the girl.

What you do is act normal and be comfortable around her. If she or somebody asks what happens tell her you were only joking or something and if they laugh about it you laugh too to show it has zero effect on you. The worst thing people can do in this situations is to feel a bit embarrassed about it because they'll then start to act awkward and make the whole situation feel awkward.

Theres a link at the bottom of the page.

Its a mindset. For example, if you were Brad Pitt and you were talking to girls at a party who you liked you wouldn't be too bothered about the outcome because you know you can get plenty of others. So really its all about not caring about the outcome. Either way it should not effect your happiness.

Yeah there are similarities. Basically whoever holds to more value is the prize. Many men might be AFC's around beautiful women but if Brad Pitt walked into a room it would be a different story.


Anyway the best lessons are sometimes the harshest as I myself have found out! :up:

Just about anything is salvageable (well, maybe not driftking/pikachu/bigweezy situation). But someone that got into this situation by making such an obvious mistake (saying 'I like you') is not the person who has the tools to turn this around (yet).

Keep reading this board. Someday the solution and your mistakes will be clear to you; and that's the day you'll have moved towards enlightnment.
