If she had been interested in you, she would have gone to the association football thing with you. People are like that.
You believe wrongly. It is an indirect expression of lack of interest in you. Or, more properly, a direct expression of same lack.
It’s everywhere around you, I can assure you. You are probably not a woman, so you probably haven’t been told a thousand times that you should smile because you don’t look pretty when you don’t smile. Only to be told you’re a bitch when you ignore the creep.
(And “to condemn” means to publicly express disapproval, should you be confusing it with “being condemned to death” or something like that.)
Get on Tinder. Even if you don’t actually use it to get dates, it’ll open your eyes to just how many attractive, available women there are out there and not to waste your time on a single fixation.
Jesus. This is why some women think all men are skeevy. No matter how obvious you think you’re being whilst still attempting to be polite, nothing short of, “HELL NO, I’m not interested!” ever gets through. These guys are always wondering if they may still have a chance, regardless of how infinitesimal it may be. Only something explicit (and even then, maybe not) can get them to understand.
And yes, she knows you have a crush. Duh. She also would’ve taken you up on your first offer if she was interested. She is not. Move on.
You have a zero percent chance of romantic success with this woman. ZERO. But you have a very high probability of making her uncomfortable and unhappy if you continue to pursue any sort of relationship with her, romantic or otherwise, given your professed feelings and the nature of the teacher-student relationship.
If you actually like her and care about her feelings, leave her alone.
To do what, make a pest out of himself? The woman was trying to be polite and give him a hint that she’s not interested without hurting his feelings. Dude needs to cut his losses and accept that she’s not going to go out with him and move on.
:smack:
Considering said tree ends up dead, not a great metaphor, dude.
There is a high probability that I will not be in her class. I think this is good because I do not want to make her uncomfortable etc.
But I have a really really important question now:
She has most probably realized there were some sort of emotional involvement on my side. Should I approach her and apologize for that? Should I say something like “I am really sorry if I made you uncomfortable” ?
Just let it go. You don’t need to apologize for emotional attachments. Just for expressing them inappropriately and I don’t think you’ve done that (as of now).
I remember reading that some women believe they can fix some men. My teacher’s situation looks similar to me. Perhaps, she tried to fix my insecure introverted nature. What do you think?
