Stop Asking Me Out For Your Friends
People, help me understand something: why do people, especially the girls, always come up to speak for their friend to say that they have a crush on me? Even I know the rules that if the girl isn't going to come up to me and talk, then I must either be too cute for her to talk to (to test whether you are too cute to talk to, talk to a woman or look at them, if they stammer or say something stupid, then that's a good sign) or she doesn't really like me. Or, it may mean that YOU like me more, and you are throwing a best friend under the bus. This happened to me a few times in my life, twice was the same dude.
1. Some little dude once told me this summer that a girl liked me twice in one week. I told him thanks and if she wants to just talk, they know where I will be. The woman just passed by and didn't say a single word, so it is obvious she isn't even thinking about me.
2. On the train, a couple of girls passed and commented on whether they thought I was cute. I ignored it, and thought they were talking about another guy. By the time another girl came, they all sat down, and I sat down in front of them, one of these girls were too shy to sit next to me.
3, In college, a girl told me that a college housemate of mind liked me. I asked if it was true, and she said no. So, right after I left that alone, they still suggest that she has a thing for me.
It's both amusing and embarrassing for the one you are trying to pair up. Let me give an example.
When I went into the pizza shop one day, just to get a few slices and change the CD in my player, a collection of five girls looked at me stunned and giggling. Not in a way that is ridicule, but in the way that lets them go how much of a physical crush they had on me. At this point, I understand how hot girls seem to thrive on the attention they get from men.
When I replaced my Busdriver CD with mansbestfriend, and left to Walgreens, this same girl came up to me when I was at the table, and told me a girl thought I was cute. I said, thank you, and kept doing what I did. When I got out, the same girl walked up to me and told me the following:
1. The girl thought I was cute, and wanted to talk to me.
2. She asked if I like thick chicks, because the girl is thick and has a nice juicy ass. Her words, not mine.
3. And the aforementioned thick chick wanted my number. She even told me her number. No, I didn't listen to it.Keep in mind that neither of them told me their names, so bare with me, if you are confused.
Anyway, that thick girl in discussion yelled "I have a man! I think he's ugly!" all while laughing in embarrassment.
Seeing as how I'm not fashionably inclined and could care less how ugly people thought I was, I took my ugliness as a compliment. She told me that the thick girl is just shy. I said that its alright and I was shy, too. But the truth was (and some people will not believe what I am about to say) ...I was taken as well.
As soon as I said that, the girls had a facial expression that let me know just how blown their mind really was. Just think. A black man who likes girls, whether they were thick with a bubble ass or skinny without one, actually took the initiative in admitting he was taken. All of us went into a laughing frenzy, as I left to head to Walgreens.
It's not even the first time that many girls have spoken for their friend that they liked me. But people, what's up with that?

Maybe their friend or friends are trying to break the ice for you two or play match maker. All in all, if a guy really likes me, I rather have him come up and tell me himself then send a friend to "let me know" that he digs me.
.....wait..........so what's your point again?
this is sooo frustrating.
if you like me, come tell me, don't be a fucking pussy and make someone else do it. doesn't make a good impression.
luckily though i have a boyfriend of a year and two months and haven't gone through this in a while. :)
Now this is something that hasn't happened to me since high school-I remember when a girl came up to me and told me that her friend likes me. This actually led to my first relationship, but that's a long story that you'd have to read in my past blogs. Anyway the opposite happened to me yesterday when a girl straight up asked me if I liked her. I thought this was a lot better than her using a friend or something to do it-she was being honest and straight up about it.
Hey now! Guys did this to me all the time. A guy would say "Do you wanna go out with so and so?" And when I say "no",the guy wouldl go tell the other guy "She doesn't wanna go out with you". This happened to me all the time in middle school.
@wizexel22@xanga - Oh, nothing important as usual.
maybe you look unapproachable?
@wizexel22@xanga - OK, here the long story short. A friend of their friend tied to ask me out for them and say that she wants to go out with me. As amusing as it is to watch someone else ask me out, I would really rather the person steps up and tell me they like them. Otherwise, I'm going to assume that THEY like me and not their friend.
Is that tattoo on your forehead real?
Never happens to me, so I can't explain it.
Actually...it sounds like in all these scenarios, the girls were not actually interested.
@crashthedr3am@xanga - Felt marker.
@xxsquirrel324xx@xanga - Nice observation.
@xxsquirrel324xx@xanga - Agreed.
its frustrating, true.
god dammit. i hate that. whenever i hear anyone offer their "assistance" as a messenger i get slightly annoyed. why make it more complicated ?
and when i actually point out people i would be interested in (which are rare); some friends (one male, the rest were female) offered to ask that person if he would be interested in me. why would i want that? >:oO_O the last one makes me almost ashamed to be a girl. =\
man i wish i had the same problem, LOL
I really like this post :D
@mynameisblueskye@xanga - Oh ok, then my theory has been proven wrong! Haha! Girls are weird!
Yea..NO. If a guy is not man enough to approach directly, he's not man enough for me--instant dismissal. It amazes me how intensely people--guys or girls--are so fearful of rejection, they defer to friends--or even family--to scope out the waters for them. Man up, seriously! :P
lol seconded :)
@mynameisblueskye@xanga - Haha thanks for bringing up this interesting topic.
@Shopgirl0393@xanga - I've heard many girls/guys say this but I find that the same people who state that don't have the courage -- themselves to approach. I'm not saying I like "messengers" since it isn't as romantic but I kind of understand how it is a "safe approach" since you'd be knowing where you stand in being rejected.
People say you have "nothing to lose" when it comes to rejection but that's not really true unless the person in question is just a passing stranger who you can not ever see again if said stranger rejects.
gotta accept the fact that some people are shy.
@xXDC_luyouXx - I'm sure that is often true..but I walk my talk. If I say I don't like something, I won't do it (in this case, not do it) myself. :) Just for me personally, I know if a guy's too shy to even talk directly to me about his interest, my strong personality will completely walk all over him too easily and that's not a healthy relationship. In some cases, shy is something that is attractive to others.
If you did approach someone you know and it didn't work out, what is
the worst you are thinking will happen, I wonder. I'm still friends
with people I like or who like(d) me. Maybe it's slightly awkward initially, but if both are mature enough it still works out..no?
