Well heres the deal, I am quite successful
I am probably the most interesting guy she's met, because I am different
I admit I was somewhat over-invested because I really liked her, now I just don't give a fck about her because she asked me for money directly, when she's not even my GF.
We share the same social circle, so I am sure I will see her at a party
I will not let her stop me from living my life, I will still have fun. I will just act like nothing happened and won't let her effect me in anyway. I don't plan to contact her, freeze out has already begun. I just have to switch the roles and just might friend zone her. No more dinner dates -- by the way I took her out 3 times and I have paid and she has offered all times.
I will keep you guys updated, but yeah I plan to kick her to the curb, she tried me as a sucker.
Why reward when she doesn't deserve..
My interest level in her is at an all time low. I'm not getting any cookie out of her anyway, and I am not the the guy to chase her and act needy...
Ditched..
Hey dude,
A lot was covered above so I'll let some of the other guys handle this one, but I just wanted
to make a point
to you that "friend zoning" a girl only works if you actually intend
to friend zone her. If this is some plot
to friend zone her in order
to create some attraction you can forget it. There has
to be a genuine intention behind that actions you take with women.
As far as asking for money;
she only did so because
she was able
to pick up on your level of investment in her.
She knew
she had you. Women don't just go taking risk like that.
She knew
she could disrespect you by asking you for money and you would STILL be into her after that. Its the only reason
she did it.
You're far too invested into this situation with a girl you've only been out with a few times for things
to pan out. You're giving her power over you and I truthfully don't understand it.
You're a successful man that is probably both intelligent and good looking. What the fuck is she other than good looking? How is it that you've elevated her so much just for being pretty and accepting your free meals. Are you kidding?
If the OP is anything like me, (I'm described as handsome, successful etc..) none of that will matter as though these things maybe true, but the brain's wiring is bottom up (limbic system
to higher cortex functioning) this is why rationalizations in themselves aren't enough
to cause a shift in one's behavior, or at least have any lasting effect. Connecting
to the core emotion(s) and building awareness around those will usually (over time) get the job done by allowing the prefrontal cortex and higher regions of the brain
to kick in and not be hijacked by the limbic system. Kinda why when you see a friend or in this case a poster struggle with a situation that seems so 'common sense'
to deal with yet they still go ahead and do the opposite, they are being hijacked by lower, more primal parts of the brain (acting through fight, flight, or fear and the parasympathetic nervous system takes too long
to put the brakes on the process).
