What just happened with me and this girl??

Arm around = good. establish body contact.
Call to see if she wants to get together after finals. Make it a date, not hanging out.
Those 'good girls' can surprise you on how freaky they will get.

Religious girls are the freakiest, trust me. Sounds like she was disappointed you didn't make a move after the comment she made when you walked her to her car. If you can't get her drunk get yourself drunk to boost your confidence and go in for the kill. What's the worst that can happen?

I'll make you a one time offer since you go to my alma mater.

I'll drive down there and bang her for you. Then at least someone in OOT will get some action.

Or just make a damn move... you are thinking way too much about this and it seems like a recurring problem you have with girls.

If you're really into her you need to be more direct and confident. Someday before break send her a text message in the evening that says "What are you up to?" She'll reply with something like "Nothing, just sitting around." Then you drop a message that says "Come over and hang out." If she likes you she'll come over or at least make immediate plans to hang out soon. If not she will react tentatively and you will know to move on.

[/ QUOTE ] Sure... [censored] like this means to a girl: He wants to hang out with me!!! He is a real friend!!!!
Also the fact that you didn't make a move last time, isn't helping your case.

Only one option...

Dress up like an angel (with wings and [censored]) and "visit" her at night. When she goes religious on you, tell her she is the new virgin Mary.

Ya'll are friends, make a bold move, or continue being friends. Either one, there is no middle ground here.

Grow some balls. Your 20, in college, and asking for tips on how to get close to a girl? Just do it.
Worst case, just bust out a guitar and your in(just don't tell utmt40).

Yeah you would really piss me off you had to bust out a guitar to get this girl. Seriously though, you are already in just call the girl and things will fall into place.


BTW Banks...nh!

This is where it gets confusing: I thought that putting my arm around her, and her accepting it, was kinda establishing "hey, I kinda like you, you kinda like me, that's cool, let's do this again sometime." But when we get to her car, she's just like "Have a good break if I don't see you again (break starts Dec. 10), and call me if you want to play basketball some time, or if you go skiing in Oregon" (we'll be about two hours away from each other over winter break, and there's a ski place in between that we each said we might go to). I was expecting something more like "yeah, let's hang out again soon."

[/ QUOTE ] you are obssesing over her every move way to much. what i mean is, you are looking for meaning in everything she does/does not do. take it easy. you have said she is religious/doesn't drink. both of these variables suggest she is not that well versed in smoothly picking up a guy she's into. it's a losing game to try and anylize her every move, looking for meaning. i think the arm around the shoulders on the couch was a smooth play. keep it up. call her and see if she wants to watch another movie with you. worst that happens is she says no. if she says yes, step it up a little. also, just because she's religious doesn't mean sh'll turn out to be a total prude. college is where sheltered religious girls turn over a new leaf. i mean you prolly wont SIIHP next time you hang out, but i'd guess you can get some quick action if that's the goal.

[Apathy]

You already messed up by not making a move, but you might be able to save it with something the next time you see each other, I say call her up and ask her to dinner.

I dont see any possible near-future labia contact if thats your question.
