so i've been going to physical therapist now for about 6 weeks. this chick is 24, hot, and has a great personality. i'm having a difficult time deciphering her body language because she always seems to smile at everyone. having said this, she seems to be more touchy feely with me than other patients that are there and always gives me extra attention. she also laughs a lot when i say something, but just can't really tell if she's into me or just being a flirty girl? a female friend of mine also recently starting coming to the same PT clinic and stopped in to see my progress while my PT was working on my ankle and after my friend left the first question my PT asked was "how do you know her?" She did play college sports and had a 4.0 GPA so she seems one of those ultra competitive types, but not sure if she was asking in jealousy? But at the same time, she really doesn't ask a lot of personal questions about me.

she's really into college basketball so i invited her over for a party i'm throwing and she declined. she did mention her best friend's mother is in the hospital with cancer so that's why she couldn't make it. a friend of mine also mentioned that PT's may have some professional code of conduct where they are not allowed to see their patients outside of the clinic?

right now, my first order of business is to get my leg back in working order so i can have a normal lifestyle again. i don't want to come on too aggressive during my PT because i feel if i creep her out, the extra attention towards my rehab might be in jeopardy. i guess the approach i'm thinking of taking is waiting until my rehab is done and then asking her out for drinks as a thank you for getting me better.

i'm not great at picking up the VERY subtle things and was hoping you advanced players could help me out with a strategy so that i can be on the lookout for any signs of interest.

If a girl is into you, she won't be worrying about the code of conduct.

This is where she indicated she wasn't interested. She was putting you down easy by giving you that bull shit excuse. Get your leg in shape and move on brotha.

**Side note, I've found these "always smiling, always overly friendly, always seemingly unavailable" chicks tend to be closet lesbians. Not a joke, just my experience.

I disagree, I think she's open to it. I'd go with your plan to ask her towards the end of your rehab. "Hey it's been great and you've been a big help. Let's catch up sometime for a drink."

If she isn't actually interested;

Scenario 1
Her: Um, I'm kind of seeing someone but, thanks for the offer.

You: No worries, I'll just ask you again in a month after I hurt something else *cue devilish grin*

Her: Haha Deal! *smiles flattered*

You: Well you've got my details, let me know if something changes before then

Her: Ok I will

Scenario 2

Her: I'd love to but I'm really busy with work and my blah blah blah is coming up blah blah blah

You: That's cool, I'm really busy too so I understand, but I can usually find time for coffee and I'll bet you do too, so we may as well have coffee together *cue eye contact with devilish grin*

Her: Ok...you know what? Why not?

Scenario 3

Her: I'm just not interested

You: What are you? A fucking lesbian? *cue muttering under your breath about how you were being generous to ask out a 7 in the first place as you walk out the door*

In all these rejections you're still the charming rogue or the alpha

thanks fisto. that's some good advice. i'll stick to what i call the "lazy jab" plan which basically is if it lands, it lands, if not, then whatever.

she does say some confusing things though. for example, last week she attended a seminar for PT's for my particular injury. the next day when i saw her, she told me about it and says "i was thinking about you the whole time." why say it like that? unless she's just playing games? effin annoying.
