Well, that just collapsed spectacularly. Apparently it took her 24 hours to figure out that i was actually asking her out when i asked her out, and... yeah...

 

So, there goes that. Now i have three weeks of awkwardness to look forward to.

 

Though she said we could still go out together, just without actually going out together...

hmm... should i take the consolation prize or not? I'd rather not wreck what i have, but the long-term investment should at least net an outcome, or should i just retreat now and minimize the awkwardness in the short-term

I was prepared for rejection, but not 24 hours after i thought i had clinched it. That was a rather cruel way for this to happen.

I've skimmed through this thread a little, and you are very good at giving vague answers.  I'm intrigued...what did she say?

 

Also, as for what you should do, is focus on yourself.  Don't care about how she is going to feel.  If she wants to do something and invites you too, just think about if you want to do it or not.  If it sounds fun or interesting then go.  If it doesn't do something else that you would enjoy.  She shouldn't be a factor anymore.  Do what you want to do.

If he starts declining her invites now, she's going to think that he never really genuinely wanted to hang out with her as a friend but just wanted to get into her pants. Many self-proclaimed "nice guys" fall into this category.

In an ideal world, men shouldn't let their dick dictate what they are willing to put up with. If you are going to do a favor for a woman you are interested in, ask yourself if you would do the same if you knew that she wouldn't ever fuck you.

Well, I'm speaking from some personal experience here.  If he wants to let go and treat her like a friend...then he should treat her like a friend.  I don't do things I don't want to out of fear that my friends will get mad at me or think I'm not nice.

He's got a few weeks left in an internship (in possibly a new city for him)  I say don't miss out on any opportunities he wants to just for the sake of being a "nice guy"

Also, I find it ironic that someone with the name of "loves2splooge" is giving advice on how to be a nice guy lol
