She might need some time, but don't forget women LOVE to be CHASED!



I think you should show her that you are in-fact interested in her. Don't give up so easily. I got several rejections from my wife when I first met her. Look where we are now over 9 years later.

This is why I shouldn't be giving love-life advice. Nothing in my relationship history was "typical." I've been married 25 years. I pursued HIM - he was actually interested in someone else when we first met.

As for women loving to be chased - still not sure that's a universal thing... just be very sure she's interested... otherwise you might look more like a stalker than a suitor! Been down that road, too - and it's creepy.

My advice would be depending on what you want the outcome to be. If you are looking for a relationship right now that may end. Continue with your foot on the gas.

If You want a relationship that has a better chance to be long term I would give her space. Maybe even move it into a flirty type of relationship until she gets over her ex. She may even have to go out with someone else for that to happen. You don't want to be mr. rebound and then mr. alone. Be the guy who is there for her after mr. rebound fails.

Of course.

But I think he's seeing the signs that she does like him. Chasing a bit isn't stalking.

Nothing is "universal", I think. But I still keep my opinion and personal experience on the "Women LOVE to be CHASED".

In my experience, the only reason women love to be chased is because they are too shy (and convention says they shouldn't) do the chasing......

This is why the guys who have learned the shark approach of "numbers" and "percentages" do so well....... and why women who fall for them get hurt so often. Once a guy has the skill of picking up girls/women...... I don't really believe that ever leaves them......even when married.....

Women are the ones that in most cases get dressed up and put the effort in...... and then they just wait to be approached...... usually by the "wrong" guys .......

I tell all the girls (looking for a relationship) I know to change the dynamics and approach the guys they are interested in. Why leave it to chance and to the "sharks" to clear up .....?????

This is why internet dating is doing so well as it completely changes the dynamics and randomness of who you meet....... and allows the women and men to choose.

But in answer to the OP's question, definitely call her....... She has stated her interest and for you not to call just looks wierd almost as if you're not bothered either way or have forgotten yourself. If she was a guy you would have called by now.... why would you treat a women you actually want to have a relationshop with any differently...... i dont see it..... But best of luck anyway....

Plenty of more fish in the sea! (No Pun)

What I mean is, don't make yourself wait, as she might never get ready. Have her as your friend and see what happens up the road, if you meet someone else, then pursue.

Sorry to hear this. But it's not necessarily the end of things, is it?

That way you're establishing that you have a life and aren't needy. You want to meet her, it's just that you're in demand due to your highly charged social life. Got it? Don't be needy. Women hate needy. Needy bad. Very bad.

This generalization brought to you not in part but in full by...me.
This. You've put it out there, now slow your roll and see how it plays out. Be available, but not TOO available. She might like you, but needs time after the split. Don't let it get awkward or she won't even want to be around in the group setting. Women like confidence and a man who has things going for him.

Sorry, However, Count your blessings... Now - Keep it flirtatious with her, DONT LET IT SLIP INTO THE FRIEND ZONE. You are not shut down at all. You are on standby.
