So I have been talking to this girl at work for a while now, she is very cute, maybe a HB8. So far I have managed to get our interactions to a comfortable back and forth situation, with plenty of slap-stick. The problem is, she is a beautiful girl and sometimes that gets to me. Don't get me wrong I always try to keep my cool around her, but inside I am AFC-ing really hard.


I would like some insight in our interactions, maybe some advice because I am seriously considering abandoning ship and leaving this as a just a friendly relationship.
A few days ago our interaction was almost 30 secs long. I walk into the office she works in and she mutters as she passes by:

"I need to go to the bathroom..."
then lightly pushes my head forward as she passes by
I then neg her with:
"Why do I need to know this?"
She replies, "I just thought you'd like to know."
I just respond with, "Gross..."
and she exits the room

I am obviously taking that as an IOI but recently at our last interaction I made the mistake of making up a lie ( and even I think it was pretty obvious it was a lie) about a girl I "met" and had become infatuated with. She then responds with a story about slapping a cop, who incidentally was her boyfriend, because he met up with some girls in a club she was at and tweeted about it and stuff.

Ok, I watch a lot of "Lie to Me" and although that doesn't make me a deception expert that story reeked as bad as mine. Because she actually pretended the dude called her in the middle of our conversation which mind you lasted less than our previous interaction.

I know my lie was an act of desperation, a cheap cry for attention, and a very AFC thing to do. I know I can come back from that easily, but I don't want to make that mistake again.
Do you guys have any comments, criticisms or advice to give. I really want to learn where I am making mistakes and what I am doing right and what I can do to prevent myself into become just another cheeky guy friend and turning into the guy she wants?

wow..california..hope to go there someday..
anyhow...the toilet convo..see there is hidden meanings in stuff like that...u know toilets are dirty and u drop ur pants to take a shit etc..so there is actually a sexual undercurrent in that little excange you had with her..especially as she made the intial comment
seeing as she siad i thought you might like to know..
i would have capitalised on that
and instead of saying gross..which basically eneded the convo dead in its tracks...
i would have said something completley different.
that may have been a little open door for you man...possibly
so id have said something like
"oh now i have this image of you on the toilet hahaha ..oh sorry did i just say that haha"

id have said that...see where it went. now i dont use canned bullshit...my material comes off the cuff so its not like u can plan a response to every senario...i just have that knack.

what to do next...ummm...well seeing as she said she was going to the toilet...why not say the same thing to her to look for a response you can build on...
i know...its silly...talking about going for a dump...but you satrted it...

Ok then, I see. Wow, I like the advice. Thanks man. I get what you mean about using canned bullshit, and I get the vibe you are trying to create with the advice you gave me, hopefully it will help me in future encounters. Thanks again.
