I met a girl at the grocery who is in my graduate school and is attracted to me. I met her in the grocery store and could see she was attracted. She asked if I was going to a graduate school party and said she hoped that I go. I'm always skeptical when a girl I just met asks me to go to an event because she probably just wants to show her boyfriend that she can have other guys chasing her. I ended up not going but heard that she has a boyfriend and brought him to the party.

Is it ever a good idea to go to a social event when you first meet a girl or are they usually using you for something?

A couple of months a go I met a very hot girl at a party. Gorgeous boobs.

She was speaking the whole time with these other 3 people: a very big silent masculine guy and other two girls who clearly liked him.

At the moment, because I was trying to kickstart my pick-up/dating life I was just naturally playing the entertaining guy (which I am now decreasing, or better, trying to convert it into a more cocky/provocative/dark/sensual kind of humour).

All of a sudden this girls turns her attention to me COMPLETELY. I foolishly assume I've beaten the big Alpha Male with my entertaining skills and she was mine. When I was going away she actually asks: oh wait are you going in the direction of the station? to which I replied yes, to which she said "Ah cool, I am coming with you then".

We lose the bus and I ask her: hey while we wait the next one (10 minutes) why don't we have a fast coffee at this bar? She says yes. She keeps being incredibly warm and open, although she often stares outside of the window (now I know it wasn't because of the bus but because she wanted that other guy to accidentally walk in front of the bar and see her flirting with me). She gives me her number.

Anyway, the moment we take the bus and she looks around to check if that guy was there and finds out he isn't, her warmth suddenly decreases. She had agreed to meet the day after. So I text her. "No I am not feeling energetic". I ask her if she wants to go partying during the WE, she also says she has other things to do. Then the next week, again warmly and enthusiastically she asks "Hey how you doing? why don't you come to this home party I am organizing etc. etc."

That was the moment I got enlightened. I said to myself: "Damn, she's been using me all along and I have been allowing it like the fool that I am". So I said: no I can't, but we can go drinking something later on this week. Never heard from her again.

Right now, when I meet a new girl I already automatically assume there is a possibility she currently has a boyfriend or there is guy she's into and that she might use me. I try to interpret what she says differently, to understand whether she's actually interested or whether she's playing me. Also sometimes they play with you even if they don't have any guy to make jealous. Just for the heck of it.

Another big lesson was: firm, silent, masculine guy much more effective than entertainer.

I don't know why she needed me to make her boyfriend jealous. She's been with the guy for almost a decade. I would think they are pretty much in love and are planning on getting married soon.

Girls can be attracted to you and also want you as a friend, which is what this sounds like. Depending on how strongly you can control the frame of the relationship, you can adjust this but seeing as she has a boyfriend it would be a bit more difficult and introduce some drama into your life seeing as how you're both in the same graduate school. Generally these days if I meet a girl via social circle and they have boyfriends I don't pursue anything because really it's not worth it. If it's a girl I met as strangers then anything goes.
