I was out last week and met this sexy bartender (9/10). We talked for about an hour, there was a great flow to the conversation, i made her laugh a couple of times. I thought to myself that I could get her, if not now, at least her number. i ran some routines on her, and just before i left i asked for her number, she said she had someone and then i asked her wether she was not allowed to have guy friends by her boyfriend.(she laughed when i said that), she said it was also a principle of hers not to give out her number (since she is a bartender she had several guys asking for it every night), because everyone asked for it. right before i left she called me sly and told me i was good. then she proceeds to give me this cheeky smile

Please someone help me, where do I go from here?

Hi there.

Welcome to the forum.

You don't go anywhere from here. A bartender is what's called a 'hired gun' - they're paid to be nice to you and flirt with you.

As real as it looked (and hey, it may have even been half real), it was for show. She works for tips, man.

She also told you flat out that she is with someone and doesn't give out her number. That's pretty clear.

Nowhere to go here except onto the next girl.
