| I previously hosted a poker game with an attractive girl. I met her towards the beginning of summer, and knew at the end of summer she was moving. Sometimes we might make a flirty comment with slight contact. She began calling me semi-regularly just to chat, not about my games; she also asked me to teach her poker. At the time I was known as mediocre at poker. It never happened, as first I flaked and said I couldn’t make it when we were to meet for breakfast and then she got back w/her ex so was ‘busy‘; she broke up w/him again after a week. I suggested going to museum close to where we both worked during our lunch break and if that went well invite her on a real date, she said yes but when I called her was “too busy“ and a bit unfriendly. I didn‘t need this, so ceased contact. She eventually started calling me again to chat, but when I started calling her she became abrupt again so I stopped calling. I didn’t hear from her for a while but just under a month before she was supposed to leave she asked me if I‘d like to have dinner with her at her place in a few hours. At the table, she tells me that if I date most hot girls they won’t treat me well. I reply that it depends on the guy. After dinner, we put a movie and she calls another guy to come over and watch with us. I should’ve excused myself and left right there and moved on, but I attempted to be civil. I watched the movie, we talked for a bit, and I left. He was not good looking (he even called himself ugly), dressed raggedly and was likely a drug addict and going nowhere in life. I don‘t want to sound condescending, but he should not have been competition. To this day I am still confused at what happened. I wonder is this a situation where the dinner was to see if she felt anything, and if not bring in the guy to block anything physical from happening? Did I mess up before this dinner? I did not come on too strong, but might never have been aggressive enough. It's all done and in terms of the girl involved no big deal but I do want to learn from my mistakes in the future as I have no idea what I did wrong here.
