friend zoned again...

As far as I can recall, a taco has only one outer wrapping folded around the fish, whereas a sandwich usually has the fish stuck between two piece of bread.
wow guys this is great- it went from a lot of heartfelt advice to downright hilarious! Thanks for both- I needed good advice and a laugh today.
I think my problem is I'm too hardcore for a "normal" girl and too "normal" for a hardcore girl. Normal girls get scared by metal bands, tattoos, motorcycles, being vegetarian, etc. Hardcore girls think i'm a nerd because I don't drink/smoke/do drugs, have a corporate job, and am clean cut (have to be for work). It's hard not fitting in to any one group lol.
I'm not picky- I love pretty much any type of woman- short, tall, thick, thin, any race. She has to be attractive obviously but the intellect gets me every time, that's what really attracts me to someone. It's also hard to find a girl who is at least somewhat vegetarian, that's important to me because my daughter and I are.
I guess I should be more assertive in my intentions at the beginning. Problem is, I've never been into sleeping with people before I really get to know them and know that they're going to be serious. I don't do the casual thing. As stupid as that sounds it's just how I am. I will also keep the negative stuff about me on the DL until after we make our intentions for each other clear. I feel like i'm tricking someone and/or being dishonest (well, we love each other but btw...) but you guys are right, I'll get friend zoned every time if I disclose it first.
Thanks for the input everyone.

but i want a nerdy girl not a dirty girl. . .
OK maybe a little dirty.
nerdy instead of dirty? Do those nut house attendants, know you snuck onto the computer?
Come on...you are in a musician... you have an image to uphold. Date a wild one. Or better yet, date a couple wild ones

but the wild ones have a habit of being annoying. its a practical thing. i want to keep my sanity or at least attempt to.
honestly i have a thing for nerd girls.
OK, do not take this the wrong way, because I am not trying to kick you when you are down...
DO NOT use the word "hardcore" around a woman who is a motorcycle fan. Among the biker circle that is the ultimate poser classification. We joke about people being real "hardcore" and "old school". That is real "Sons of Anarchy" stuff there... Do not try to classify yourself. Let others worry about that...
Relax. Have a little fun. it seems like maybe you are trying a little too hard. I have had two wonderful women in my life, and neither came along when I was looking for a relationship (the first passed away, and I am still with the second). The rest of the time I just dated and had fun. I long ago lost count of the number of women I have dated. Most knew that I was not going to be a lifelong partner. I had fun, they did as well. it was all good. There were also a lot of dating follies, but now they are just funny memories
I didn't say keep one...I said DATE one
Gees...kids these days...
Ok, here is the way to handle the wild ones...Knock the bottom out, and turn it to junk
Then move onto the next one

perhaps i am flawed but i tend to either pursue or avoid a girl often based on first impressions and im nor really into the whole hit it and quit it thing.
The irony of life is that I used to complain that I was always single. Then I got married.
LOL!
I'm just saying I'm a friendly kind of guy. Not mysterious with a hint of cool so much as relaxed with two scoops of nerd.
Hint: Shut up, don't smile (occasional smirk is ok) stare off into space for the most part, occasionally giving her a strong confident look into her eyes, and when you eventually do have to talk, refrain from talking about any topic in any depth at all, unless she shows significant signs of interest. If you actually get to the point where she might be nibbling on the bait, you need to set the line. Leave her alone to simmer for a bit and talk to other people, and avoid making any eye contact with her during this period, and wait for her to come to you.
Rinse and repeat 50x times and you might get to touch a boob.
Here's a classic one liner:
"How do I know we'll be having sex tonight? Because I'm stronger than you."
I'm so going to hell.... lol.

This is so true

It's cool, at least you'll have me when you do go... at least judging from how hard I laughed at that

kids? i'm 28.
i am a bit of a slow learner though.
Yup. I was totally unaware that I'm so stupid, wrong all the time, need to do all the housework and be told I'm lazy. Silly me. Good thing my wife can tell me these things, as well as I don't need to get another bass and I need to choose between her and the next bike race..........
