If she's a stunner, why would she bother with him? She's either got a dude or knocked back 50 before him.
Maybe he looks like Herman the monster and nobody's told him and she's just being polite?
Maybe she's batting for the other team?
Maybe she can't be bothered with personal relationships so she can put all of her efforts onto her studies?
too many variables...
OP, what do YOU think is going on...? (did she notice your hardon? That's a turn off, you know?)
Girls aren't that complicated. If a guy i felt attracted to came up to me and asked me if I'd help him study, I'd say yes and of course be thrilled. I wouldn't have ignored it like she did. Men are pretty bad at taking a hint. Trust me, she's not interested.
I like you, but that's bad advice. Just because you're a woman doesn't mean you're an expert in women's feelings in general.
The rule is, if he's attracted to a girl, then he can approach her and keep testing the waters until it's crystal clear that he's not going to get anywhere. I'd say a handshake and a smile is plenty to go on for first contact. I also like that he used my method to talk to her. That's one point for me!
Also, don't discourage the boy. All us old codgers are living vicariously through him-- if he gets laid, we ALL get laid. Don't you dare virtual-cock-block us!

Absolutely. No question about it. You successfully established contact with a girl who was just walking down the street, and got her both to speak to you and to make physical contact. It doesn't matter if you're a bumbling fool-- the girl will know WHY you're bumbling, and she'll decide whether she wants to do something about it. But congrats, because you have just successfully interacted with a female human being!
Most important advice incoming. Do this a LOT. Don't pick your battles. Don't wait for the perfect girl or the perfect chance. Just walk around campus saying hi, asking questions, getting phone numbers. Leave no stone unturned in your efforts to entertain us! (err. . . I mean. . . find your soul mate). I mean. . . the worst that's likely to happen is that a girl will make some excuse and walk away from you. The best that's likely to happen is that you will find a wonderful girl, fall in love, have great sex, and post videos for us to critique. The imbalance between worst case and best case favors activity so strongly that there's really no reason not to just go for it.
