    So I met this girl at work and we instantly clicked. Unfortunately she has a boyfriend. I know she likes me too.

    I'm really digging this chick so I need some proven, effective strategies to win her over.

    Thanks.

    There are none. She has a boyfriend.
    Find another chick to dig.

    Very defeatist attitude. I like her and she likes me. What if I never meet one like her again?

    What do you want people to do? Give you advice on how to break up a relationship? If she liked you enough she’d be with you.

    Chicks dig me because I rarely wear underwear and when I go it’s something unusual. But now I know why I’ve always lost girls to guys like you. It’s the stories you tell. Like that other guy who comes in here. When his friend stole that cow and his friend tried to make it with the cow...I wanna party with him.

    Exactly. I need to know how to win her. She probably feels guilty about liking me. She's leaving the office soon so I need to make an all out effort on this.

    She's not a trophy.

    She spends her free time at work with me. She suggest we hang out after work. She laughs at my jokes Seems genuinely interested in what I get up to.

    So she either likes me or is leading me on.

    How old are you?

    Have you even considered the feelings of her bf here?

    How would you feel if you had a girlfriend and another guy where she worked started a thread on the internet about how to break up the relationship to win her over?

    I am 30. Why would I care about his feelings? He's not my friend. Ive never met him.

    I have met a woman who seems to be perfect for me, who actually gets me. If you met someone who seems perfect for you, would just let them go?

    Grow a pair and ask her if shes interested in you

    I would say go for it, and the sooner the better. You're not going to get much advice here for God's sake. Just be funny, and maybe start by keeping the chit chat more so about her, as this will allow you to poke fun at her.

    Don't prepare, and don't worry if perfectly smooth words don't to come to mind. And after you've made your move, just continue on talking about whatever like it wasn't a big deal. If you're the nervous sort, then when asking her, just be sure your voice doesn't go higher, that your shoulders stay relaxed, as well as eye contact.

    Of course she'll still say 'no', even if there is a chance, however you might get a few questions about yourself, and why you asked her, etc. These questions mean she curious, and you can bring it out of her if you play your cards right. If you get any "but you know I've a boyfriend" type questions, just ignore them and keep showing the same intent. However, if she does mean no, then she'll act quite different!

    When around her, you need to be the one that sets the pace... deciding when the interactions end, and so on. You cannot be the guy who's waiting for her. Your time is valuable! If ye're about the work place, and you sense she's enjoying your company, that might even be a good time to (& it's the last thing you'll think to do), get up and leave, saying you've to go somewhere. That would sort of be like an ultimatum for your company, while also showing her that talking to a pretty girl isn't a big deal to you.

    But if you're trying to pull off any tricks, be weary in case such things contradict your character, or previous things you've done and said. But above all, try not to want this too much. The chances are nothing will happen.

    Mods - ye can close the thread now!

    I have no female friends so I doubt it.

    Anyway we'll be out next weekend. My plan is to wait until we're both drunk (we both like to drink) and then grab her and kiss her. Then we'll know.

    So basically you are going to get her drunk an take advantage of her. What a creep you are. That can be considered sexual assault or rape of it goes further.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,153 ✭✭✭jimbobaloobob


    Your on a wind up here Casanova or else delusional.
    If your well able to read her signs you should need no help.
    What happens though few years down the line and she's hanging out with a lad from work because she get him and finds his jokes funny. Don't get too jealous.

    Oh come off it. I'm not going to 'get her drunk' we're going to get drunk together because we enjoy each other's company and I'm going to make a move. Last time we were in that situation I had my arm around her rubbing her back and she didn't object. Should have kissed her then.

    And having reread your post, <SNIP>

    Nope :) and not the first time we've hung out without him being there.

    Your 30 years of age and your on here looking for "some proven, effective strategies to win her over", a girl currently in a relationship.

    And a couple of hours later your declaring to get the two of you drunk and go for a kiss then.

    Best of luck in life.

    I have to laugh at that myself.
    He is on boards at 30 years of age trying to find out how to pull a girl that has a boyfriend.

    I’d say he is on a wind up but if he is not I am worried for both of them later in life 😂

    Thank you. I may be clueless about women but that person is clueless about people in general if he doesn't realise people get drunk and hook up all the time.

    This is the most childish answer I’ve ever heard.
    If u have to come onto a forum to ask people how to win a girl over ur clearly not the datable type.

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but if she was into u so put some actions into words and u wouldn’t need to be on hear asking how I’d win her over.

    You laugh now but you might find yourself in the same situation. To be clear I'm only doing this because I really like her. This is a girl I can spend hours talking to. I don't meet ones like this very often. If I only wanted her for sex I wouldn't bother but this is love we're talking about!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,232 ✭✭✭Sam Quentin


    Go for it. Just be funny in front of her and stuff.
    I find if you stand in front of 'them' with your right arm in the air and cup your left hand and place it under your right armpit, then sharply bring your right arm down to your side, it makes a BIG fart sound...
    Women love that and you become irresistible :)

    Maybe the answer is contained within your plan.

    Agree 100%. I really fear for my young lad when he grows up. He’ll need his lawyer to hold his Mickey on a night out.

    Rare a young fellow that doesn't plan on getting a girl (who has a boyfriend) drunk then grab her an kiss her.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46 Mrtestosterone


    If you can pull it off then awesome and don't blame yourself. She has a boyfriend and it is solely on her to control herself. If my girlfriend cheated on me, I wouldn't blame the guy, I would blame her because she was the one that's in a relationship. She'll probably cheat on you as well at some point so best to use her in a friend with benefits kind of way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,934 ✭✭✭✭fin12


    I think you should just tell her how you feel and then at least you will know where you stand. I wouldn’t get involved unless she feels the same and has ended her relationship. Plenty of genuine single people out there so you don’t need to get involved with people already in relationships.

    Going after someone else's girlfriend is a real scummy thing to do.

    If a girl went after another another girls boyfriend she'd be called all sorts and rightly so, same rules should apply here.


  • Site Banned Posts: 218 ✭✭A Pint of Goo


    Anyway i'll update next week. Keep the advice coming. Even if most of it is negative I still appreciate people taking the time to write a message.

    Telling ye though, the Gods want this to happen. I have next week booked off from work. That means a week of her not seeing me and realising how much she misses me. Then It's showtime on Saturday night. I didn't plan this.

    This just proves ur childishness and that fact that u haven’t had many girls. “This is love”. U don’t even no the girl ffs

    Because I'd never have the bottle to do it sober. Lets be clear, we're two adults who are going to get drunk because we like each other. I'm not grooming a child here.

    If she rejects me that's fine and I will respect that 100%.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 969 ✭✭✭Greybottle


    Man the fcuk up and ask her out to dinner, or something that doesn't involved getting her so plssed that she has her guard down.

    Tell her how you feel and tell her you'd like to go out with her. Give her time to think it over. Be prepared to be rejected.

    Getting her drunk first is sly, creepy, seedy, dishonest and dangerous. Its an appalling way to start a relationship and an immature and nasty way to behave.

    You need to grow up, you sound immature.

    Ur delusional u know that. U have no female friends u haven’t had love before. Ur in ur 30s and ur going to wait till she’s drunk. If u ask me I’d say u sound like a physco

    I admire how determined you are, she must be nice! I have no problems with trying it on with a girl in a relationship, she's the one in the realationship so she has to decide weather to be loyal to bf or break up with him or cheat.

    I do have a problem with "waiting till she's drunk then grabbing her and kissing her" when she mightn't be thinking straight, I've often tapped people I wouldn't want to with beer goggles on. If ye are clicking like you say, you should have no problem talking about it or getting romantic while sober.

    I get you but I'm not the type to do these things sober, I just can't. I'm sorry I cursed at you but your comment really annoyed me because I hate men who prey on women.

    Fact is though women are not victims. They like to go out and drink and screw as much as men do.

    And yeah, she is great.
