So to get straight to the point I was out at a bar with some friends, one of whom introduced me to her friend (HB8). I started talking a little to this girl, and it was clear she was into me (two friends agreed with me on this one). Well basically after a little talking and joking around she bought me a shot. The thing was that when she talked to my other friends who were guys she made good eye contact but for me it was as if she always wanted to look away. It's almost like she seemed shy and nervous.

Anyways this was during the day (St Pattys day) and at night I went to a bar with my same friends and she ended up being there with her friends. This girl kept on looking over at me and positioning herself by me (which I took as an IOI). However, she made sure to dance with all the guys but me. She kept looking over at me as if to try and make me jealous or something. Naturally I still had a smile on my face and did not look back to her, while continuing to talk to friends and looking unphased by any of this.

So my question relates to 1. Why a girl would do something like this and 2. Are there routines to get a girl who seems shy/is trying to make you jealous? When I tried to dance a little with her she did not seem to want to, and I am quite confused by this. A girl friend of mine also agreed this girl kept glancing over at me when dancing with other guys. Any general thoughts on the situation I am still not sure why a girl would do something like this besides to make me confused as shit haha

I'd say women play the same games that men do, but we rarely pick up their signals. The interesting part of your story is the massive amounts of eye contact you two made and her dancing with every other guy but you. That just reaks of her playing hard to get and keep you guessing (sounds like it worked too). Good job playing it cool though.

If it were me, I would have done the exact same game to her, start being playful with her friends while throwing glances and smiles her way every now and then. It's a way women flirt. I would have (and have on many occasions) brought two of her friends out there and sandwiched myself with them while doing the running man, the sprinkler or something outrageous but fun. Then make the excuse to her friends that you feel bad that HB8 isn't having as much fun as they are and go dance with her.

Take a look at a book by Leil Lowndes called Undercover Sex Signals, it will tell you everything you want to know about eye contact and signals that women send to let you know they're interested. Keep doing what you're doing though, sounds like it's working.

thanks thats helpful. I'll definitely have to check that book out. The only part I still do not get is how she would talk to me but pretty much refuse to use eye contact. This happened during the day even before she tried to make me jealous by dancing with other guys. It was like she would give me eye contact from afar but when we were actually talking it was not the case. Is there any explanation for this?

ah, my bad, I read it wrong. well in that case you're screwed.

nah, I'm just messing with you my good man, continue being you and do what you do. I honestly think you are reading too deep into it and over analyzing the situation. Maybe she was legitimately intrigued by one of their stories or possibly she thinks breaking eye contact while listening or talking to someone is rude.

Was she displaying kino with them? That's an indicator. Was she IOI'ing them? Indicator. when you made eye contact with her, did she break eye contact or did you? if she broke eye contact, which way did she look? It's easy to over analyze.

Maybe she was shy in your presence because she liked you and that's why she couldn't maintain eye contact.

My point is to not get bent out of shape on the details of one thing. Continue being aaronrodgers and game her. Hope that helps.

Yea that's good advice Im definitely looking too into it haha. but I did just find out from her friend that she has a boyfriend. So maybe that makes things a little clearer. At least I got a free drink!

Look brother, I'm not going to lie...I've been on both sides.

She doesn't say that she has a boyfriend, she doesn't. She says that she does...well, you've just trumped him. sorry but that's seriously the way it works.

Don't ask (this goes back to mystery's "the game") just presume she doesn't. If she's out there doing what she does then just assume that she doesn't. I do it all the time.

Matter of fact, as we speak, I just K-closed a chick that was saying she was married. I didn't see a ring on her finger.

Take that for what you want. just keep gaming my man.
