If Mr Meaty pursues the girl in question and gets the 'just friends' response, but then continues to spend some time with her and keep the friendship going to an extent. At this point Mrs Meaty has basically already said NO to Mr Meaty. But what are the chances of Mrs Meaty changing her mind??
How do girls think about this? Once they've decided in their mind is that usually final or is there much room for change. If so what would Mr Meaty do to win her back?
Would Mr Meaty start pursing her again and just ask? or would he lay low and let Mrs Meaty realize her wasted opportunity.
