What are ways to show a girl you like them and want to be with them?

[tuigirl]

hey, just be yourself. If she really wants to be with you, she'll take you as you are, warts (flowers 0r no flowers) and all. Good luck.xx

Agreed. With both of 'em.

It takes some sort of miraculous dynamics in order for both parties to feel exactly the same. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work out for one person.

Unfortunately that is completely right as well. But hey, that's life. I guess learning that at a young age is always good. But then again, possibly why I gave up on persuing relationships altogether....

[iamnotafraid]

Whatever you do, don't buy her a gold bracelet!
That will jinx the relationship.

Sounds like a bit of a game on her part..."I don't like you that way, but entertain me and give me an ego boost by proving how much you like ME."

ps: I come from Lancaster area too. I haven't lived there for a long time, but remember well how weird the social environment there can be.

The first time I fell in love, it was mutual. That made it so much easier. The second time I fell, it was for someone I had no business falling for, and I never fessed up, but I'm certain that person didn't feel the same. That's just life. But when you really, truely fall in love with someone, you just know it. I knew it the first time I ever kissed my husband that I would marry him someday. The love never fades or dies, despite all their flaws and mistakes. You may see the flaws, but at the same time, they're transparent. Anyhow, Chris, don't give up. I hate saying this as much as you hate hearing it, but you're still very young for something of that nature to happen. When the time is right, it will happen, and it'll be nothing like you've ever experienced before in your life.

i disagree that flowers are cheesy. i think it's a nice sentiment, but i'm in a different generation but honestly, i agree-if she says she just wants to be friends, but to show her you're interested? that almost sounds like she's wanting you to chase her, and that's just game-playing. at 22 i guess that's fine. i'm just at a different stage in my life (ack! almost 31) and you either like someone, or not. none of this "oh...well, let's just be friends until you can show me you really like me". f*ck that sh*t.

but you know this girl better than we do, so you have to follow your heart and use your own judgement. best of luck!

Don't be too nice. Treat her like crap and she'll be begging for your attention, or just ignore her altogether. Within 3 weeks she'll be calling trying to figure out where you've been.

This thread reminds me of the movie Sixteen Candles:

Samantha: "You know,
just now I really felt
how much you like me".



Farmer Ted: "You're probably zoning in
on my brain waves or something".



Samantha: "Well, not really.
I felt it on my leg."


To answer your question I really think it depends on the person you are trying to express your feelings to. There are lots of things you can do, and the more you know about them the easier it should be. You could find out if she had a favorite toy or doll when she was little and try to buy it for her on e-bay or something?
You could try and cook her favorite meal and rent her favorite movie?

Years ago for a girl I had fallen for, I bought a heart shaped box, and filled it with strips of paper on which I had written all the things about her that I loved. It seems cheesy, but it made her cry, and we did start dating. Of course she ended up cheating on me later, but what can you do?

What????? Are you insane? Treat her like crap, and if she's got a brain, she'll be gone....
