And I didn't think, after your rave review of her, that you would throw your chances to win 100 bucks. It just seemed like s strange bet. If he wants to motivate you, he should bet against you.

You're asking a bunch of poker dweebs for dating advice. That's your first problem. She's the hotest girl on campus, and you've described yourself as being pretty average. That's your second problem. She called you a "friend." That's your third and biggest problem.

You have absolutely no chance. I'd lay money on it.

The upside is, she's just a chick. Plenty more of 'em lying around. Don't sweat it or put her up on a pedestal. They all start to piss you off after awhile anyway.

And even though I'm positive she'll say no, I'd ask her out anyway for two reasons: 1. You just gotta know. 2. It's good practice asking hot chicks out. Ask as many of them out as possible and be fearless about it. Even average guys score hot ones every now and then.

"She's the hotest girl on campus, and you've described yourself as being pretty average."

But she's TWENTY SIX. A big factor for at least two different reasons. I'll let others elaborate.

It's way too late, you will never get her.

1.You didn't act fast enough, she sees you as a friend.
2.You thought about this WAY TOO MUCH (putting unnecessary pressure on yourself)

Dude, this is ONE GIRL on a huge 30K campus!!

There is still hope for you, but forget about banging this girl. (at the moment)

Become friends with her, meet her friends, there should be a few bangable ones.
Hump a few of her friends, then the hottie will become jealous.
This creates tension and interest.
There is a good chance she will become attracted.

You've gotta push the interaction.
Take some risks.

Actually that's a hindrance as she will be far less likely to be willing to deal with a man who is woefully inexperienced and lacking in self confidence.

"she's just a chick. Plenty more of 'em lying around. Don't sweat it or put her up on a pedestal. They all start to piss you off after awhile anyway."

Sheer poetry. If you don't appreciate these four sentences, look at them this way:

She's just a chick.
Plenty more of 'em lying around.
Don't sweat it,
Or put Her up on a pedestal.
They all start to piss you off after a while,
Anyway.

"Even average guys score hot ones every now and then."

This is true. When I was in college, the ugliest, poorest, least articulate guy in our group was getting the most. His secret? He simply asked almost everyone. Two for a hundred, in this category, is a better batting average than one for four.

DOn't listen to this guy, or any of the other negative idiots in this thread. If you doubt yourself at all, ask yourself this reaffirming question: Would David Sklansky ever make -EV bet?
