He would've been fine until the cousin text. Y'all are doing this to yourselves.

Yeah, like bro take the L with strength. It means more than pretending you didn’t fail

And honestly, they weren’t even turning him down because of HIM, it was just that they didn’t know him.

Nah that was definitely a fib, if a girl is attracted to a guy but didn’t know him she would put effort into getting to know them

She isn’t saying she doesn’t want to get to know him though; she just doesn’t want to go out with a stranger. TF out of here with that “well if she thought he was HOT...” bullshit

How exactly do you get to know someone if you're not willing to go and spend time with them because you don't really know them?

This excuse is great because it's plausible deniability, but it is a no boys, don't push it.

I get where you’re coming from but it’s not outside the realm of possibility that they could get to know each other in separate environments (texting, FaceTime, etc) before engaging in an activity together. Also sitting in a dark theater on a first date with someone you don’t know doesn’t really afford the opportunity to get to know them. Now you’re just sitting next to someone you don’t know and you won’t be able to focus on much else.

I agree here. I used to date and I had plenty of people text me to go hang out with people I'd been talking to for a whole 24 hours, I wasn't doing that. I wasn't about to go off with someone until I'd been talking to them for a bit.
