Girl in college

Bobby09

I've liked this girl in my college for a few months now. The usual stuff like catching eyes, saying hello and just generally being nice to her. Well, yesterday I got chatting to her outside of college and we just clicked instantly.

Having had to go home I gave her my number and we were texting for a bit durin the evenin. When I asked her if she'd fancy doin somethin, food/drink wise outside of college she told me ahe was "kind of half-taken".... But that sometime she'd like to...

Anyone have any clue what that means?

Yup!

Means you're getting lined up to be either next in line or a safety net in case her current fella doesn't work out!

Ask Her what it means

But given the limited info if I was asked to guess I'd say that she has a bf and was trying to be friends/nice to you

She is probally seeing someone and considering all her options, either that or she could be on a break with her boyfriend.

I have to agree with the previous advice. Hedging her bets and possibly testing you, or not that pushed on you, now that you've shown interest(quite common). "kinda half taken"? Right so. I wonder does the other bloke(if he exists) realise this?

Anyway, basically if you want her, ignore that comment and ask her out. I would say that at least half the women I've gone out with were seeing someone at the time I met them and the same percentage that dumped my arse had someone lined up to jump to. Looking back it was clearly not the issue I may have thought it was at the time.

Pay as much attention to what people do as you do to what people say. If I met someone that I was interested in and she referenced having a boyfriend, yet kept flirting and showing interest in me, I have to say I would pretty much ignore the comment(unless I knew the guy). She's the one making the effort not me.

Ask her straight out, there can be no confusion then. Could be she's going to finish with her bf or they've just hit a rough patch.

it means shes in college and shes plyin the field and doesnt want to get tied down!!

I rarely disagree with Wibbs but I'm going to have to on this one. What he's saying is perfectly correct but if it was me I'd leave it. If she's half seeing a guy now and takes up with you then what's to stop her from "half-seeing" you a few months down the road when she meets someone else she fancies.

A girl who acts like that wouldn't be my type.


P.S. I realise this is at odds with a lot of the americanised dating culture where you can "date" loads of people at once but what are you gonna do :rolleyes:

Tell her to take a hike. Women eh :cool:

imo it means shes scoring someone and its at the stage where its unsure if its just scoring or going out, thats the excuse i use when in that situation

+1. Woman treat guys like eBay items: once they know they have the winning bid they spend more money elsewhere. Let her know the auction is about to close and be done with her after that.

A lovely reference and quite accurate. If you keep this up you can expect her scoring you a few times on nights out, excuses of how she doesn't want a boyfriend at the moment but how she still really likes you and wants to be friends. Leave it and find someone else, it'll save you a lot of trouble.
