I've been talking to this really nice girl. She is a very smart girl. She has strong beliefs in the Christian faith. (She is Baptist and I am Catholic). She is fun to talk to and can actually hold a converstation. I told her that shes has all of the quality that I look for in a woman. She replies with. "I'll take that as a compliment." What does it mean? Arrrghhh! For that matter, what does "cute" mean to women? What qualifies as "good looking". Why must women use vauges and varied description! You women just do it to get on our nerves don't ya? I think she likes me because we will have coffee soon, and she agrees to show me her dorm room when we move into college. She even took me up on my offer to help her get around since she won't have her car. Jeez women are so confusing. Also, my bacholarhood streak of 3 years may be broken by this girl, lol.

You mean she's a three-foot dwarf with no teeth and a flat head for resting your beer on?

It means just that... "Brings a smile to my face and I do find you attractive (physically/romantically etc), but I'm not interested in a physical/romantic etc relationship."

Well, if she says it to your face, that is. It's generally a "push away" move.

A good thing to do is be straight up but not in her face - " This girl was coming onto me asking if id like to roll about in the hay with no strings attached "

" I said yes, what would you say ? "

That is of course if thats what you wanted..

Eh I don't like it when women play mind games, so I'm not going to do the same. There got to be another way of getting the answear.

But that's difficult to say. The "I'm not interested" might be "Not yet" instead of "No way Jose". It might possibly be a tactic to work the situation. Like in fishing, the fish fights and you have to tire it out. Make you work for it. It depends on the person.

My advice is to just get to know her... As friends. Don't even think romantic and if it happens, it happens. But don't try for anything.

Well it depends where she is from. To me cute is a good thing in a guy, but I wouldn't necessarily go out with him as being cute is all sweet and cuddley.

Ahh women are complicated creature. Sometimes I feel like I have a better chance of solving the Rubix cube than I do of soloving the mystery of women.

Be straight up, two night ago this girl started texting me but I didn't know her personally and she was a mates friend so I told her straight ' Do you want to meet up for some fun ?'

She replied .. ' What kind of fun ?'

I said.. ' We can have a drink and I want to touch your sexy body '

Her reply .. ' If you could handle me XXX'

I went up and got what I wanted I even have her MSN and she was on a minute ago, but I must say she isnt the sort of girl i'd date it's just for fun ;)

If you give up, then it won't. Sometimes you have to give chase.

Sounds to me as if she was slightly amused by your comment, perhaps a little embarressed/awkward, and didn't really know how to reply.

Whoa! Well done.

As to what "I'll take that as a compliment" means, well, you didn't actually compliment her by telling her she has "all the quality you look for." What that says is your requirements, whatever they may be, have been fulfilled. For all she knows, quality may mean that she has a nose. "Quality" is subjective.

Well she KNOWS you like her.

Do you know if she likes you>

She obviously likes you. She wouldn't agree to spend so much time with you otherwise. Whether or not that means she wants to sleep with you is another matter, but that is the kind of thing that changes over time.

It means shes leaving you for a 7 ft eskimo who struck oil lost all the money gambling but than made double on the stock market and now lives in a three story igloo.

I know that i'm extremely guarded with my emotions. If someone were to say something like that to me (before i married my wife that is) i would have been elusive with my response too. Is she normally like that? or was she just being coy
