My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
Real talk. Word.
Thank you for sharing your advice Upxl.
And please ignore the mean Texan and participate a bit more!

Wow, thanks for that advice upxl. You should post more, we don't bite you know!
But regarding one thing you said, I don't think she was playing hard to get by missing the class. Because it was in fact the last class of the term. Meaning I won't see her again for over a month until the exam.
I'm just staying positive and not letting it bother me, although I'm getting tired of making myself feel like that. I guess I can't complain, I probably messed her around more in the past when it was her that took the initiative... not deliberately, just because I'm an idiot. So I guess I deserve it.![]()

Just a word from someone who has been on the receiving end of this type of behavior. It doesn't always work. In fact, it can be pretty repellant. I'm not going all feminist rage here, despite my posts in the backroom. I'm just speaking from my own experiences and those of people I know.
If someone treated me in the manner described above, it would be a giant turn off. If a guy made me think that I wasn't worth his time, and that I needed to convince him that I'm worth it, he would come across as douchey. It comes across as less than genuine and would probably make me lose interest, or at least reconsider.
Is this what pick up artists refer to as "negging?" This is extremely unattractive. If someone told me, for example, that "You look good, for your age" or some such, I would pretty much never give them my number or go out with them. I would either assume that the guy was extremely lacking in social skills, or deliberately insulting me. This is not something you do to someone you don't know well. Any woman with an ounce of self esteem won't fall for this.
Also, arrogance/cockiness can be pretty unattractive.
Confidence is attractive, arrogance is a red flag. And confidence doesn't mean "control."

Thanks Husar maybe I will and don’t worry, the mean Texan is only scary at first sight, like some 6 years ago.

I think I understand where you're coming from. My main beef is with #6. You're not the first person I've heard suggest this as a good approach for attracting women. Some are more brash about it and the stuff they think is good to say to someone is pretty appalling. If I was attracted (physically) to a guy and he came up and started making jokes about my appearance, it would come across as an insult, and would diminish my attraction to him or kill it outright. I've been in this situation. There's a difference between jokingly giving me a hard time because I like Star Trek (totally acceptable IMO because it's almost expected) and joking about my physical appearance or my intelligence. One is good natured and the other, well, isn't.![]()

Come on Rhyf...
Its exam time. The chick needs to study and pass/excel it. She doesn't have time to a time-consuming, storming, passionate relationship until after the exam.
Expect her to invite you out when the exam is over.
I have had girlfriends putting our relationship on "hold" during exams. Frustrating... but the one I am thinking of became a physics major/scientist.

Absolutely, and falling in love really bad during exam time is a really bad thing even if falling in love in general is a very good thing.
In the end it's about bringing both to a successful conclusion I think and as such the exams may require some distance, if just for a while.

idk though, one of the things we were talking about is how we don't even have much left to do in terms of Uni work/exams. Most of the stuff this year was coursework and its all done.
