Default Biggest Challenge Ever

So a few weeks ago I met this girl who goes to boarding school at my friend's house. She is banging hot 10/10 and very cool; we started talking online and we would have very entertaining comical conversations. Since she came back to the city from boarding school over thanksgiving break, we have hung out for almost all hours of every day. She keeps coming back to me, not the other way around, and I'm quite convinced she likes me a lot if she's not in full love with me. While it's possible that I'm naively imperctive here, I feel her vibes rather clearly. When we're together, all we do is flirt constantly. And she is the best challenge I've ever come across in a female - flirting with her is playing a world class game - I can't drop my guard for a second and I love it. She loves to be teased by me.

Normaly, with the above paragraph, things wold be a wrap for me. I'd get where I want.

Last night I honestly figured I would hookup with her, at the very least, by the end of the night. But she threw a cockblock out of (what seemed to me) like nowhere, saying that she couldn't hookup with or date me because my mind is too similar to hers. She then indirectly rejected my advances while giving off a sense of loving the power the situation had bestowed on her.

I know that she is very selective, but I also know I am more than good enough for her. I give her the best quality experience (by her own admission) that she could have when coming back to the city; she chooses to hang out with me over long-established friends even! I can't actually think of a girl who has been more aggressive in repeatedy seeing me than her.

Now I realize getting off the "friends" list is futile, but I made sure at every point along the way when confronted with a fork in the road to steer towards attraction-building. I was never too nice and never gave up weakness and I never stopped teasing her (with perfect timing, and it's always funny).

I'll be blunt here: this is the highest class woman I have ever dealt with and the challenge that has been posed to me has me questioning everything I thought I knew about male/female relationships. Has anyone been in this situation and does anyone have advice? I know by how she looks at me and seeks me out that she wants more than just friendship, but there is some sort of block.

From the sounds of it, you're not on the friend list quite yet, though you're teetering on the edge. This whole "I can't date you because we're too much alike" is obviously a smokescreen for something else. What that "something else" is, I can't really know.

Could be that she's attracted to you and wants to date but is playing the weary "chase me" game. Why modern independent women turn themselves into objects like this I'll never understand, but the fact is that it's still very common.

Could be that she's involved with someone else and is conflicted.

Or it could be that she's playing you to satisfy her own ego.

My advice - for what it's worth - is to start dating other women, but stay in contact with her from time to time. If she insists on turning this into a "chase me" game, that tells you mountains about her personality and I'd avoid her as if she were Typhoid Mary. If she's with someone else, she'll have to make up her own mind in her own way on her own time, and there isn't much you can do to control that. Not much point waiting around for a "maybe," is there? And if it's an ego thing, dating other women will bring her back to reality a little bit.

Thing is, if she's as banging hot and cool as you say she is - and I have no reason to doubt your word here - then she's probably used to fending off a Niagara of men. Clearly, you're different and that's rocked her back on her stillettos a little bit and she probably isn't quite sure what to make of it, hence her smokescreen.
