I need advice about this girl.
So, I like her — she’s pretty, and about two weeks ago we went out to eat. I think later this week we’re going to the movies, too. The thing is, she doesn’t really see me like that. Our first hangout, when we went out to eat, had more friendly vibes even though I paid for everything. After it ended, I kind of gave up on the idea of “what if she’s into me?”
We talk in person almost every day since we work in the same building, and we have really good conversations, but it still feels more friendly. So I guess I’m in the friend zone, which I honestly don’t really mind, but deep down I wish she would see me as more than that. I’m just afraid she never will, especially from the way she told me she’s still been in contact with her ex and that they might try again. That’s mainly why I gave up on it.
Still, she’s a great person to talk to, and I’ve enjoyed getting to know her. Ever since we hung out the first time, though, my mom keeps going on and on about her and how she should be my girlfriend. My mom even calls her my girlfriend when she’s not around, obviously. The thing is, my mom has this habit where when she says or predicts something, she somehow ends up being right. She keeps saying this girl is eventually going to be my girlfriend. I keep telling her we’re just friends and that I don’t think we’ll be more than that, but she just says, “No, you guys are going to end up together.”
So… any thoughts?
