Marlboro On: He's just not that into you...

So Music Man has been in the office for two weeks now and I have been making every effort to get him to ASK ME OUT...

The hem-lines on my bodycons (which I do wear to work, yes) have been getting shorter, the hair bigger and the outfits a whole lot shinier...

Still. Nothing.

I have been soo taken aback at how difficult it has been I decided to take it up with Princess on a night out to Plastic People (so yes we were a little drunk).

Marlboro: Why doesn't he love me? Like really why doesn't he just fall down at my feet and like ASK ME OUT ALREADY, there really is only so much a girl can DOOOO... maybe he thinks I'm ugly?

Princess: Seriously dude, don't be silly in this equasion you are like a ten, he is barely pushing a five.' [This is why I love my best friend], perhaps you should just like talk to him???

Marlboro: Don't be ridiculous, since when do men that I like go for 'personality'...

Princess: So true dude... hmmm, I need another beer. First I'm going to the bathroom to gaze at myself - I'm having a problem finding the hotness in this place and that sweaty guy with the highlights keeps looking over - I give it 5 mins before he gets brave and tries to talk to one of us and it ain't gonna be me SUCKER *runs off in direction of toilet* [and this is why sometimes I feel like I need to trade her in for a new model]!!!

Convinced that my tactics would eventually get me into some Music Pants I continued with my look 'hot' and completely dis-interested in the hopes that musters up the courage to ask me out...

The yesterday on a flight to Luxembourg (business trip, 5* & business-class all the way... except on Luxair, this means 5" extra leg room and not much else - blah) I found out something that made my head explode...

He's just not that into me - you know that crappy film, well yeah it was book first and OHMIGOD it totally, like I just said, MADE MY HEAD EXPLODE...

This is not a book that should be read when:

1. You have been working extra hard for two weeks to make your crush SEE you while working a stressful job 9am-7pm most days

2. You are alone on a tini-tiny plane with no Valium to one of the strangest (sorry Luxembourg) smallest ghost-towns ever (again sorry Luxembourg)

3. You are drunk because you have no Valium while you are alone on a plane to one of the strangest smallest ghost towns ever

The first chapter reads: HE'S NOT THAT INTO YOU IF HE IS NOT ASKING YOU OUT, because if he likes you, trust me he will ask you out

Great right...
Like I said my head exploded, and man that air-stewardess will never forget it... Let's just say I'm so glad I won't be flying to Luxembourg again anytime soon...
And that my boss was not on the plane.

goodluck with music man though, maybe he's just shy!?! if not.. then he's a douche for not asking you out.

MM, dearest.

ohmyfuckinggod. don´t ever watch a movie like that in a state like yours. I hate when actually you know that you´re a shiny slut and then comes a guy who doesn´t pay attention to the shinyness and you wonder if you are still shiny after all.

that was a lot of shiny in one sentence but you got me, right?

similar situation here: I was out with this theatre guy who told me I was like the most amazing thing he´s seen, sexy, intellectual.. then he sent messages and mails saying how he thinks he falls in love with me.
and SUDDENLY, when I start to think maybe, maybeee I like him, he starts to text me sporadically and let me say, with less enthusiasm than before.

what´s it with the guys? we should discuss it over some beer and wine so please fly over to hamburg and watch something like 'marly&me' in the plane.

mucho love and SHINYNESS

GROSS.
That's such a lie. A dirty dirty lie. Not asking you out can be attributed to MANY MANY factors, MOST of them including the concept that he's intooooo you. x

i dunnoooooooooo

i don't know . most of the time i was in thi type of situation the
"not into you " turned out right .
its not like oh if he doesnt as k you right away he doesnt like .
but if after a whgile lets say 3 weeks he doesnt than no hes not into you . but of course you have to let him know you are interested . have you tried to flirt ?

hhaha your friend sounds like my best friend .

ignore the dude . sometimes that works . im ean dont look at him act like he is invisible . :)


and maybe you might find someone better who knows

I am staying in my little shiny world and believing that I get anyone I want. Ohh the shiny world of an 18 year old.

Fuck the music-man, metaphorically and literally and fall in love with someone in accounting - that nerd that only needs that little makeover to become a minium 8.

You Girls always make me laugh. Words of wisdom From Mrs Mills from the sunday Times - "you can get anyone you want with a lack of morals and a very short hemline".
