Good work pjgat09!
Now next time you meet a girl you're interested in, as cylon suggested, work on building attraction (and chemistry) first. Personal experience, and frustrated tales of many of my guy friends, tells me that once a girl considers you a friend, she's unlikely to change her mind. As Sally said, it's possible (and it has worked that way for me twice), but it's far less likely than if she's interested in you as more than a friend
from the start.

...And then she got together with someone else. Possibly just after you built up the nerve to do something about your feelings, but before you could actually do it. If even if you did get there first, it was a few weeks too late. Been there, wrote the angst-ridden journal entries

From talking to some of my girl friends, it seems they understand it more than guys do. As for guys who understand it, some take it a little far, such as the Pick Up Artists, but even they have a lot to offer in terms of how to get girls to feel the same kind of attraction that most guys feel just by looking at a girl
I'd suggest that any guy who can relate to pjgat09's situation go out and learn from the PUAs, either from reading what they've written (plenty of sites out there), or better yet, hanging out with them and seeing them in action. Of course you don't have to try to become a pick up artist, but you can go a long way toward
not ending up in this sort of predicament again.
