Like...you stop trying to get a girl because YOU think that she's not into you, without her directly telling you.

Or, you persist to try to get a girl even after she's told you that she just "wants to be friends" or if she has a bf.

Or any other scenario along those lines.

They're both shitty.

But I think it's worse to give up before you really should.

Then again it's pretty crappy to continue to chase somebody who has made it clear that they don't want to be chased.

I'm going with choice A for this one.

Well fuck. My idiot self clicked the wrong one. Grr.

Um? That's like "would you like to be shot in your right foot or shot in your left foot?".
Both suck. I'm going with the first choice. It's better to get on with your life.

For me, persisting even though you know there's no chance... I was stupid enough to keep trying. Dumb me...

Trying when there is no chance...

after a time, doesnt that become a prosecutable offence?

Anything's better than being on bottom bunk, with Bubba upstairs.

Been there, done that. I'd have to say quitting before having a shot, though both of them are really tough.

You still might be able to kick a soccer ball with your right foot if you shot your left

shit, I am such a bad judge of the situation that it doesn't matter to me either way. I do both I am sure, because unless a girl is very forthright with her actions, I got nothing.

wow...tough choice. it sounds like someone has deconstructed my social life. This is a dichotomy of which I have played both sides regularly.

this is where I pause and reflect on the fortune on the Bazooka Joe comic that lives in my wallet...

Loser
 
If you give up before you've lost, then you don't really know what you may have been missing, it was a 50/50 shot. But if you're persisting where's there's no chance, there's just this prolonged period of misery where you'll feel worse and worse as the days go by. I had an even worse variation of this, where I tried persistently to get back with my ex, only to finally come to terms.
