Dictionary

noun /kôrt/ 

verb /kôrt/ 
Be involved with romantically, typically with the intention of marrying
- he was courting a girl from the neighboring farm
- we went to the movies when we were courting

(of a male bird or other animal) Try to attract (a mate)

- Western politicians courted the leaders of the newly independent states

Go to great lengths to win (favorable attention)
- he never had to court the approval of the political elite

Risk incurring (misfortune) because of the way one behaves

I'm sorry, what? Assuming you are using the wrong word, you are going to date someone else when the girl you really want is taken? That is wrong. You'll screw yourself over and most likely the pity-date. Don't do it. Sorry for not answering your question, but your reason for asking is not really "worthy" of an answer. Just be single. I've been doing it for 14 years and I'm happy. Some have done it for longer.

Put the dictionary down and don't be a smartass.

OP, there's no way you can "make" anyone like you. You just have to work your hardest to leave a good impression on them and show them the best you can be. Your best won't always be good enough, though, and some girls (in fact, many girls) that you meet will simply not be into you regardless of what you say or do.

I honestly didn't know what he meant by court. So I googled it and that's what came up. I'm sorry if that came off as rude. And the single part I didn't mean forever, I just meant since he would knowingly be wasting his time if he's settling for another girl. I was in no way trying to be a smartass.

The reason why I am reluctant to give him advice is because of a previous thread of his where he explained his situation. I don't want him to settle for another girl even if the girl he truly likes is taken. The chances of it ending badly are too high.

And to the OP: Besides what I have said in my posts directed at you, Sage's advice works best to truly answer your question.

Well the best way to get the girl to notice you is taking imitative and talking to her. Become friends with her. But dont force her to like you. If you come off too strong and she might not like it. Just start out easy as friends and let your feelings take its course if you happen to find yourself attracted to eachother then Bingo you succeeded. It's all about feelings not really about doing. Not all girls will immediately fall for if you constantly flirt. Sure it might make them like you a bit but it wont automatically make them want to be your girlfriend. Just start as friends and let it go from there. This is not the movies and we are not animals so love doesnt come easily it's much more complicated than that.

I don't think you should enter a relationship that you don't plan on keeping together unless the other person is fully aware that you plan on breaking things off anyway, and I don't think most girls your age would be into that. Kiddo, I don't think you should approach relationships with this mentality you have, where you just want a girlfriend for its own sake.

Yea that was kinda douchy on my part

[aalina]

if you want that girls will like you . you have to understand some points such as
The female mind has always boggled many men. A women might say, "I want a man that would go shopping with me,", and men hearing this would would try to do that to try to please this women. However, (here's the kicker) men actually decrease their chances with this fine young lady by doing just that. Sounds ridiculous, I know, that idea sounded ridiculous to me a few years back too, but that's actually a cold truth that many men are unaware. The reason for women's disinterest on these type of men is that these men lack the characteristic of being a challenge.so respect girls make them happy by doing things of their choice

Try find the things you have in common and not in common so u know what to say to er

[victoria stiles]

A ideal man is an alpha male who's confident in himself and not afraid to take the lead and get what he wants out of life.Non-attachment to whether she likes you or not.The bottom line is that a woman should never be a challenge for you. Instead you should be a challenge for her. Make friends with as many women as you can. If you start thinking that any girl is one of a kind, then that gives her power over you, and, ironically, makes her lose attraction to you.

Be yourself. If she doesn't like it, that's her problem and she isn't exactly worth trying for.
I mean, isn't that obvious anyway? If you're going to pretend or do things that people on here tell you to do, which might or might not be what you would usually do on your own, she might as well just be dating everyone who posts in the thread. Play your own game, darling. If it doesn't work, shit happens.
