It finally happened...
I met a girl in a retail store a few weeks back and through a stumbling conversation I managed to get her number. I didn't think it would go anywhere. She asked how old I was from the start and I told her I was 28. As she texted me for the first time she expressed some resistance to this as she was 18. I stopped for a moment and referred back to my RooshV Forum Education. I turned the tables and confidently told her that I knew she was too young for me but that I'd manage somehow. I joked about needing a hip replacement soon. It worked. She laughed and we set up a date.
Unfortunately, she didn't live nearby. She was 20 minutes away by car and an hour by public transit. She agreed to drive down and see me and within a week we were hanging out in the park together. Everything went great.
She's an 18-year-old college girl born in Iran but raised mostly in America. She was sweet and mature with a cute face and an amazing rack. I couldn't believe I managed to pull this. This was poised to be my greatest bang yet.
As we strolled through the park I decided to get a little physically aggressive. I put my arm around her as we walked, which I normally don't do. I made it a point to have her lay down next to me in the park and tried to keep the physical intimacy going. We had some good conversation throughout the date and for the first time I made it a point (again, thanks to my RooshV Education) to go for a kiss after the date ended. And were her lips soft....
I noticed a little resistance to the physical aspects in our date. I figured she was just a little nervous. This was definitely not a fast-moving girl and I wanted to show her that I respected that even though I wanted to get her naked more than anything I've wanted all year.
Just this week I began probing for another date. Both of our schedules conflicted and she was busy with school, but I figured that our date went so well that I was bound to get something soon. I texted this morning to see when she was available this week. The response came several hours later:
"This week I'm working and prepping for a final. So..I was thinking and I think you're too old for me. I'm not too comfortable with the 10 year age difference."
My jaw dropped and my heart sunk. There was no way that I lost this that quickly. I WAS IN, DAMN IT! I've gotten comments and cold shoulders based on my age, but this is the first time a girl has ever explicitly told me that I was too old to date her.
My first reaction was to just let the whole thing go, but I knew that fighting resistance often pays off. My RooshV Education has been paying off so far but now I need a new tool for my box. What's the best way to approach this? Or is all lost?
I've been thinking to respond with something like: "Yeah, I don't think your dad would like you dating such an old dude." I figure associating her fears with someone she's likely rebelling against would work in my favor. I know I have to be very careful here or I'll legitimize her fear of me. I think part of her resistance is also coming from the distance she'd have to travel to see me. I was thinking it would be best to make an effort to go and see her so she has one less thing to worry about. Thoughts?
