Blond Bomshells with Boyfriends

edited July 2007 in Help / Advice Forum
Hello fine gents and ladies.

So I find myself in the position of always flirting with a blonde bomshell who has a boyfriend. It is not as if I go after those who aren't single but every single woman I flirt with who has blond hair has a boyfriend (the time this information hits my ears depends on the amount of flirting).

So I have to ask, anyway to get around this problem?

    Can hot blond guys be "bombshells"?

    I thought that was only a term for women.

    The only useful advice I can give is do not take things said in SE++ seriously.

    It's a serious problem which needs some serious help I think.

    My advice?

    Don't. Even. Bother.

    Move on. Find someone else.

    Not worth the drama.

    If you absolutely MUST flirt with a blonde, there are blondes out there who don't have boyfriends. They exist.

    Alright, let's say these single blond bombshells exist (hypothetically), how do I tell if they are in a relationship?

    It's times like this I wish there was a relationship ring, much like the wedding ring...

    Do not be a dude who interferes in the relationships of others. That makes you a cunt.

    And frankly, if you have to ask how, you can't.

    Um.

    Ask them?

    "So, you got a boyfriend?"

    "Are you with somebody?"

    or one of those cheesy lines that implies she has a boyfriend cuz oh gosh she's so gorgeous and depending on her answer you gauge whether or not she has a boyfriend.

    No. There are none.

    Every girl, every relationship is different.

    I act real chummy with my guy friends and with my best friend it looks like I'm dating him because we're so close. The majority of my friends are dudes, too, so I know to an outsider it looks like I'm dating one of them.

    Guys usually come up, flirt, and casually ask.

    The ones that don't, they just miss out.

    If you're not mature enough to up and fucking well ask, you're not mature enough to fuck. And no, the secret to finding a girlfriend is not to gain enough magical mental powers to somehow trick her into your life.

    Alright, so what am I do to do with my some how un-natural ability of being attracted to girls with blond hair that already have a boyfriend?

    It's not like I find out they have a boyfriend and want to break them up, but it really has become irritating that every girl I find interest in turns out to be taken.

    "I have a boyfriend" is sometimes a polite way of simply rejecting a guy.

    Indeed.

    Has anybody else ever had the problem of only being attracted to girls that you later find to be in a relationship?

    My only advice for you is shy away from using, 'what, pray tell,' in your everyday conversation.

    This, in itself, makes the idea of you flirting with 'blond bombshells' highly suspect.

    And who says bombshells anymore?

    Bombshells, pray tell?

    What are you?

    50 and english?

    God, its hard to even think over the blaring of my internal Idiot Alarm. Listen son, you've just been unlucky. And there's nothing wrong with having a thing for a certain range of appearances (god knows I do), but it wouldn't hurt for you to a) at least try to branch out a little and b) not act like other people having relationships is some kind of terrible conspiracy against you that must be defeated.

    'course, I'm willing to bet most of these women are just trying to get you to fuck off.

    Seriously. Its just life that smart, funny, pretty girls are more likely to have a boyfriend.

    It can be frustrating, but thats just the way it goes. There's no point obsessing about it or being all melodramatic and saying "why does it always happen to me?!?!"

    There's no magic way to know. Sometimes people like to flirt when they are unavailable, everybody likes to feel wanted.

    Its just timing and luck.

    So you've stalked them until you see them kiss another dude, or do you just take what they say and assume that it is absolute truth? Your choices here are being incredibly creepy or being incredibly naive.

    No. There is no magical indicator for you to find out without talking to them that they have a boyfriend. Stop wishing/asking for one and deal with it. Just talk to them and find out whether or not they have a boyfriend by, you know, asking them. If you plan on getting involved with them, a question as simple as that should be simple to ask or hint at... if it's not then are you like 13 or something?

    Anyways just talk to them and find out their status. It sounds like you might be doing this already, in which case you are already good on what to do but are complaining that it isn't working. Well, sucks for you I guess.

    It's not that which I am afraid/angry about.

    It's more about the fact that lately I have only become attracted to women who I find out later all have boyfriends.

    Believe it or not you're not the only guy who is attracted to hot blondes. As such you can expect that you're not going to be the only guy pursuing them. These are "facts of life", as it were. Not every girl you like will be single, not every girl you like will reciprocate the liking. You just fucking deal with it. It's perfectly okay to ask if a girl is seeing someone, provided that's not how you open the conversation. So you meet a girl, you flirt if you want, after a bit of chatting go ahead and ask that if you want to know, and if they're not single then oops, too bad, stop pursuing that kind of relationship with the girl immediately. You don't have to shun them or hide from them or anything, and frankly shouldn't because that reeks of niceguy-syndrome and believe it or not you can be friends with girls you aren't fucking.

    You already know all this though. You've recieved the correct advice multiple times in this thread and keep challenging it and asking for some magical out that just doesn't exist (and you know it doesn't, it's written all over your posts and the way you phrase them). It can be frustrating when it seems that every girl you talk to is seeing someone, and it does feel good to vent, but H/A isn't the place for venting. Also it seems silly to me to limit yourself based on something as trivial as hair-colour, particularly when so many blondes aren't actually blondes. But that one's your call to make.

    tl,dr; STFU, if you don't like the advice you get in H/A you don't have to take it but this subforum doesn't exist as a place for people to keep telling everyone who tries to help them to fuck off until they tell you what you want to hear.
