Shopping with a girl

College Life

<p>Don’t buy anything for her and give honest opinions on everything without directly insulting her (the fat thing should be obvious). But otherwise, girls like getting guys’ opinions on clothes.</p>

<p>What if she goes to that section… then like… she wants to try some on and asks for you to accompany her to the fitting rooms. Do you tag along or suggest you’re going to go to the restroom?</p>

<p>You might need to work on your decision-making skill if you have all these scenarios and can’t figure out how to respond.</p>

<p>I think it would be very weird if a 2 week acquaintance took you into the lingerie section. I would call her a slut if she asked you to accopany you in the fitting room.</p>

<p>Just act yourself and don’t try too hard. I wouldn’t buy her a tangible item. Maybe ask her if she would like a drink or a snack.</p>

<p>imo, just be a gentleman and you’ll be alright.</p>

<p>I don’t know about you guys but I was always under the impression that if a girl asks a guy she isn’t dating to go shopping with her, then he’s been friend-zoned and he’s just there to provide the ‘male perspective.’ As such, buying her something is completely unnecessary/borderline awkward/creepy and carrying her things is also unnecessary unless of course she legitimately needs it.</p>

28

<p>if a girl asks you to go shopping with her => friend zone.</p>

29

<p>I think that could be, but definitely does not have to be true. I would look for another indication before reaching a verdict on that.</p>

30

<p>Well, every situation is different, but from my experiences, only guys that have been friend-zoned are asked to go shopping with a girl. Unless the girl makes an explicit move on him and asks him out to dinner or something of a romantic nature, I’d say that he’s been friend-zoned and shouldn’t spend too much time thinking about what he should or shouldn’t do.</p>

<p>Peter Parker’s got it right on this one.</p>

<p>IF you’re going to buy her anything at all, make it like a pretzel or something because you decided you wanted to stop somewhere and get a little something to eat and it would be rude of you not to offer because she is with you.</p>

<p>Other than that, no. Just no.</p>

32

<p>I agree with peter parker. Unless it’s actually a date, you don’t have do more for her than an ordinary friend would do. I’m a girl, and I’d be put off if a guy I didn’t know very well bought me things, opened the door for me too many times, and offered to help carry my bags.</p>

33

<p>good points, there’s a reason that she asked you to go shopping or else she wouldn’t have asked at all. Just be yourself, don’t try to be someone that you aren’t</p>

<p>thanks keilinger for the correction haha :p</p>

34

<p>"Just be yourself, don’t try to be someone "</p>

<p>Because you’re a NOBODY. hahaha, I just had to do that. :D</p>

35

<p>RE: The “friend-zone” thing…haha. </p>

<p>They say that girls over-analyze the things that guys do…I guess it’s nice to know that we’re not the only ones. Like someone said, no need to jump to any conclusions. She could have asked you to come along because she wanted a low-key way to get to know you better. And I seriously doubt that she’d drag you into a lingerie department; I wouldn’t even do that with my female friends.</p>

<p>A guy should always hold the door open for a girl. What do you mean you would be put off if a guy opened the door for you too many times?</p>

37

<p>

</p>

<p>I personally wouldn’t care about the number of times, but rather how it’s done. If he rushes ahead of me, even if I’m first to reach the door, then that seems a little over-eager. If we’re walking in step, though, it’s nice of him to open it.</p>

<p>Also, shopping with a guy friend != friend zone, at least for me. Not necessarily a date, but walking around leaves you a lot of free time to get to know a person better.</p>
