Someone once asked...

“How do I deal with a guy trying to actively compete with me for a girl that we're both interested in? I know that just because I've been talking to her longer doesn't mean I'm automatically in the right, but I have never been in a place where I needed to handle a situation like this. I wouldn't have a problem with it if he was more open and transparent about it, but he treats it like a race and acts like just because he talks to her more that he's going to "win".”

Someone answered with kindness...

An emotionally intelligent woman/person in general knows that it's not words that determine who likes them more, but rather their actions. The other guy who treats it like a race is immature, if you like someone your focus should be on them and any other factors irrelevant. Be mature and transparent with her. It is quite attractive when a man is not afraid to be emotional and vulnerable in front of the woman he likes. P.s forget about the other guy. Even if there is a rejections or something like that in the end, please don't get discouraged, or disappointed or even angry with the girl. Cuz humans are weird, and taste is subjective. "Even if you are the juiciest peach in the world, there will be at least one person who doesn't like peaches."

Being with someone isnt necessarily like that, if he is competetive like that then hes a right twat, and even if they get together she will dummp him because of his personality. Relationships are deeper than some "race" although evollutionarily speaking they literally were, but they have recently become about finding true love and the right person, if she is the right person then keep an open mind, try to not be angry, ask for help, all admirable things - talk to someone who is in/has been in this situation before, dont force yourself to talk to her more, that is prolly what he is doing - from my pov that is seriously unattractive.
