Women confuse me

Met this girl during fresher's week, and really liked her. We got to know each other around campus and started to get on really well. A little flirty, but nothing ever happened as she had a BF - and she kept reminding me this.

She then introduced me to her mate, and subtly hinted to me that I should get together with her mate. Then the three of us were out in town, and her mate came back with me to my place.

The first girl has been really strange towards me since, and I dunno why. Getting a conversation with her is really hard work (pretty much all one word answers from her). Today she gave me into trouble for giving her a compliment! Her mate is cool about things though, we still talk.

she's jealous or kind of hurt that you'd get with her mate over her.

even though she couldn't have you, she didn't want her mate to have you.. Maybe she didn't realise that when she was setting you up, or she was setting you up for some other reason- maybe to kind of test out how much you actually like her.

just try to keep being friends with her

God yeah some women are confusing. So she hints that you should get with your friend so you get to know her friend then the girl who set you up with her throws a hissy fit.

I say just carry on as normal, just be polite to her etc. God knows what she is thinking, confusing woman!

She could've had me, at any time, and she knew that. But she was happy with her BF.

And yeah Rock fan, you got it.

God and yet she has her own boyfriend as well, I can understand maybe her feeling a bit iffy about it as it was her friend, but other than that, I really can't believe she's throwing a fit like this. Maybe she isn't so happy with her boyfriend as she says she is.

Sometimes women like to be confusing :p:

Basically I see it as she got to know you first, started to fancy you alittle. Then introduced you to her mate to see how things go by seeing how you are with her friends. She then said for you to go out with her mate but didnt actually mean it but to see how far you would go, you did and she got pissed because its like you chose her mate over her.

I hope that makes sense :p:

Don't try and understand them - its a perpetual game of flirtation mixed with damage control, one of the brightest minds in science - Freud tried to understand them for 50 years....and failed - What an earth gave you the idea you could? (beyond a sex change of course)

Lol Wangers.

It's just getting to me for two reasons, cause I do actually like her (as a friend, or possibly more - it's not (well, I didn't think it was) important really). Plus I'm now starting to feel guilty about sleeping with her mate. Really don't want to, as we done nothing wrong - plus it was so good :smile:

Well if both of you were single then sleeping with her friend is hardly wrong. Do you like her friend? if so why not keep talking to her.

Women are indeed a confusing breed.
Just nod and say yes when they talk to you. :p:

Even I'm confused by that. She seems erm bitchy lol. Try to stay friends with her but if she won't accept that your not going to be her little play toy then I wouldn't bother.

Firstly, I find this thread hilarious! It's so good for showing the different ways men and women think. :biggrin:

But seriously...

this doesn't make sense... surely surely surely? He DID choose her over her mate, but she had a boyfriend.

The poor bloke can't win! Imagine if he's tried to win her away from her boyf; everyone would be laying into him for being a cold-hearted bastard.

Amazing thread though, really! :p:
