The sort of person who makes a hug and small talk out to mean something huge and significant isn't going to do that.ace_of_something said:If you actually man up and ask her out and it starts with "You're a great friend but..."

'You're such a good listener'Vorpals said:This is a simple question: What are signs that a girl has pity for you in the "Awww, he's such a loser" way, for whatever reason?
For more details: My situation is these two girls who almost always smile and/or say hi to me all the time, usually with a nice, big, smile. I always say hi back, being the overly-kind person I am. One of them gave me hug for remembering her birthday.
Then I heard that one of them gave a hug to one of the kids that no one in their grade likes for some reason, and my paranoia kicked in, and that's why I'm asking this question.
Today, one of them, the one that hasn't hugged me and the one I'm interested in, also asked me what's up and started leaning on a wall when I said hi to her.
Is this pity, friendliness, or interest?
Edit: This is not the same girl from my other thread.
Same. It's almost depressing how true this is.maximilian said:Unfortunately, the way most girls (especially beautiful ones) are wired is to go for the guys who are most unattainable or do not give them the attention other guys do. This is based on the psychology of masculinity or security. Similarly, by making yourself stand out or appear impervious to their attractive qualities, you're presenting yourself as both a challenge and as unique in your security. If you're fawning, you're going to place yourself at an inherently lower status than her and push yourself into friend territory. The catch is, once you start going out with her you have to drop parts of the "tough guy" thing and support her emotionally. Ah, the complexities of love.
Of course, people will disagree based on a. what girls are like and b. pure disbelief, but read any psychology on attraction and you'll see what I mean. Similarly, it worked for me.
Very rarely do nice guys ever get the girl. I feel happy for you if you prove me wrong.
Aperantly, they dont like bag guys, they like confidence.Meta Like That said:Same.

You really shouldn't think to much about stuff like that. You should just ask her out some time. If your really interested in here and you think she likes you.Vorpals said:This is a simple question: What are signs that a girl has pity for you in the "Awww, he's such a loser" way, for whatever reason?

Leaning on a wall? How is that relevant to anything?Vorpals said:Today, one of them, the one that hasn't hugged me and the one I'm interested in, also asked me what's up and started leaning on a wall when I said hi to her.
I don't know why they're always surprised, I'm a skinny white guy what the hell did they expect? me not trying to video tape them while they undress? yeh right.Vanilla Gorilla said:The lips become pursed and the eyebrows form a sort of A shape...Vorpals said:Can you explain the look, please?RavingPenguin said:Usually the look she gives you while talking to you. Speaking from experience here. I hate that look.

Scrap that, it looks more like surprise... which is probably better... unless she's surprised because you fell out of her cupboard with a video camera.
