Resolved Question

What would you do?

Okay, so I told one of my friends I've been thinking about dating her. She says there's nothing wrong with me, it's that she doesn't think I'd be able to handle her in a relationship and that she feels I deserve someone better. I don't feel that way. How would you convince her otherwise if you were in this position?

She's telling you the truth..believe her and you may be happy about it..Sounds like a better plan.

I would wonder if her saying that you deserve better is based on her low self esteem or issues she's caused in past relationships that would end up screwing up your friendship in the future. How I would approach the situation would be quite different depending on that information

it is really not in my position convincing anyone..

but given that i really like her, i'll be more attentive than ever before. slowly and without putting pressure on her part.

i will not be after the "date" as is but instead be more appreciative of me being with her already.
and with that. whatever happens, happens.

Just move on, its probably the best thing to do...Maybe shes not interested in you in that sort of way!!!

She was just being nice, "letting you down easy." She doesn't want to be in a relationship with you, so you too should move on or risk becoming a stalker type. Good luck!

You can't. He mind is made up. it's not for you to try to influence her against her choice.

Back off, step away from this person, and move on to some one who does dig you.

And be grateful she let you down gently.

I would not try and convince her at all. Agree with her and let her alone. The ball is then in her court. If she wants you, she'll have to make some changes. Any other approach is a disaster IMO.

move on... she is trying to say she isn't interested in a nice way.. she doesn't want to hurt your feelings. Go find someone who wants to be with you and would appreciate you!!
good luck

I think that she is trying to tell you in a nice way that she is not attracted to you. If she was then i don't think that she would be holding off.

I was in this postion lately and i also told things in a nice way but for a finish i had to say the truth. It was not nice at all. Leave her be and value the friendship.

she thinks that you couldn't make her feel better and you wouldn't put up with her and she thinks you cannot give her what she needs. basically you don't have what she needs. there is probably no way to convince her otherwise.
