I think you mean you need a girl to express romantic interest, or flirt with you before you can fall in love with them...leading on is much more sinister.


Yes. English is not my native language, so you are probably right. They need to express some kind of interest, and in several cases the trigger seems to have been position-dependent (being in front of me for a while). These things don't happen accidentally, and now that I know about these vulnerabilities, I'm extra cautious when they happen.

So you are certain these two girls you had crushes on never dated or flirted with other guys? Did you ever actually discuss that with them? Or did you follow them around and observe if they expressed interest in other guys or not. They could have lied about not dating or flirting with other guys, simply not talked to you about it


I had selective mutism in school, so I didn't talk to anybody. So, no, I didn't talk to any of them. The one in college was in my class, so I had a pretty good idea about what she did, and if she had a bf outside of school I'm sure, she would have stopped the game with me.

I changed that above. It was one in high school and one in college.

Anyways did things work out with one of these crushes or did things fizzle out after those several years of the non-verbal thing not growing into a romantic relationship?


Both of them ended when school ended.

It was pretty easy to find girls willing to do that, and I had a great time so I don't complain even if nothing "came out" of it. :lol:

I don’t think “testing” someone is any guarantee that you yourself are up to the standard you’re “testing” them against. Reciprocity is never a given. It’s entirely possible to demand something from your partner you refuse to abide by yourself—they don’t have to accept those terms, but, if they do, it’s their problem.

Interesting and maybe they didn't have boyfriends, though I wouldn't be so sure the flirting was only limited to you. Of course I simply don't trust people that much until I get to know them which to me involves more than say flirting and looking at each other in class and things like that, I have to spend time with someone outside a structured setting before I can determine what I think of them.

If you are not satisfied with eye-contact you can go to some brothel, you piglet.

Btw, despite being an evil piglet myself, I think I still win, from when I was 12-13 to when I was 16-17 I was in love with a girl without being able to see her.

Piglet. I'll remember that word in case I can use it some time. :mrgreen:

It's been a while, but if I remember well, despite being sexual, I wouldn't dare to think about her that way.

I am speechless at your... nevermind.

I am not a horny guy at all, unless within very comfortable circumstances.

I never get boners in public for instance.

Additionally, both of them had friends / classmates trying to "help" in advancing things. Not really much of help, but still. I don't expect girls to seek / accept that kind of help if they are flirting with multiple guys, or have a bf elsewhere. :lol:

Also, I meet the high school girl at the start of college, and she still seemed kind of interested, but then she probably started on a program elsewhere because I only saw her once or twice. Maybe she was there to try to setup something different that didn't depend on us meeting regularly without planning anything? A pity it didn't work out as she was a lot more promising than the college girl that I ended up with instead.

I don't get what getting help in class has to do with whether or not a girl flirts with guys or has a boyfriend.

Also I thought you said these relationships consisted of little non-verbal interactions in class and didn't progress any further....that's not the same thing as being with someone in an exclusive relationship at all. So how do you mean you ended up with the college girl?

I mean to me it honestly sounds more like these girls eventually got to the point of feeling the relationship wouldn't progress into anything more than courtship.....and moved on.

They didn't help in class. Their friends tried to intervene so things would progress beyond just courtship.

But the point was that they acted exclusively, and so did I.

I met her in my class. We kind of started the eye contact game very quickly, and then continued with it until school ended 3 years later.

But they didn't move on. The high school girl gave up after visiting my college without being able to setup anything new.

So you're saying that over the course of three full years you would make eye contact with a girl, but never really spoke to her?

Exactly. I'm that crazy, and so was she. :wink:
