I'm seriously not following you here... at all. By "fuck up," do you mean her
reacting with "well, i don't like YOU" to your "i like you"? But then, wouldn't
that be HER fuck-up? She'd make herself look like a complete bitch and why on
earth would you want to spend another second talking to a complete bitch? Run
like hell and thank god you found out this quickly :) Also, i remember someone
on sosuave saying that PUAs can be split up into two groups: those who
consciously try to CREATE interest (MM, RSD, etc) and those who simply walk in
and take what's rightfully theirs (Shark, Swinggcat, etc). The way i see it,
it's not my fucking job to worry about her interest level, let alone take steps
to create it. I'm a great guy. I KNOW that. If she doesn't, then she needs to
learn how to read people, but that's not something i'm gonna stay up at night
thinking about. When i go to the mall, i KNOW that sooner or later, i'll get
what i came there for: a number. I can spend all this time making THIS chick
interested and get her number OR i can simply find the NEXT chick who ALREADY
likes me (my style, body, the way i approached, body language, tonality,
attitude, friendliness, etc) and take HER number. Now, out of the two,
wouldn't i really rather have the last chick's number? She LIKES me. She'll
pick up when i call, she'll enthusiastically accept the first date idea, she'll
show up on time, kiss me, etc.

LMAO! Same thing happened to me. I did the same thing. And i came to the same
conclusion afterwards. I SO should have RAN after her! What stopped me was a
stupid little voice inside my head "that would be *SO* AFC!" Well fuck... so is
standing there and ANALYZING! In fact, out of the two guys (one who runs after
and one who stands there telling himself that he's too proud to run), one will
get laid and the other will analyze himself to an early grave. So who's the
REAL AFC? Fuck that. Next time, i'm gonna TAKE what's mine! Fuck rules,
regulations, society, etc. I see. I want. I take!
