A nice greasy pork sandwich served in a dirty ashtray.
I like how your opening flirtation sounds suspiciously like WTF WOMEN DONT KNOW ABOUT COMPUTER PARTS!
The next thing you know you’ll be wearing a bra on your head.
Couldn’t this story be summed up more quickly as:
“I met this girl at a party who is kinda geeky, like me. I mean she knows about computer hardware and is a software engineer and everything. Unfortunately, a friend kinda likes her too. But he’s not really in a position to do anything about it because he lives farther away than I do. So should I go for it or not?”
That’s much more concise and gives the basic details. Plus the answer becomes obvious:
Ask your friend if he cares whether you ask this girl out. If he says yes, figure out how strongly he cares, and then make a decision accordingly. If he says no, problem solved.
No, seriously, I think the “Western Digital” part was really important to the story.
Somehow.
The primary decider here is the girl. Just give her the opportunity and see what happens.
I’m lost, we have WF, S, N, A, and F. Oh I see, you were told to “fuck your friend, go for it” hence the F. But this was a few months ago? I hate to say it but there are a trillion fish in the sea, both men and women, and you might already have missed your chance. But I dunno, maybe there’s less chances for you to find girls you truly have an interest in, so if there’s opportunity, go for it.
Like someone else says, instinct is a primary decider in dealing with the opposite sex.
Have you tried, you know, asking her?

This is the characteristic I always sorely lacked. Insecurity seemed to trump all sorts of signals females would give me. That said, there is no way to give advice about vagaries like this one when there is so much unspoken communication that cannot be conveyed in the written word.
I’d send her a check the box email.

Since she is a computer geek she must be into internet pornography which means she must be into anal and fisting so the answer is definitely Shit Bonerz!!!111!!!ONE
Lololo
Seriously, obsessing about some woman you met three months ago is a little creepy. Let it go.
You forgot the part where he can’t even remember what she looks like.
Not to mention that she’s probably had sex with like 4 different guys by now and has no idea who he is anymore, his face lost in a memory sea of dicks.
Uhm, yeah, three months, way past the expiration date on this one folks.
HOLY SHIT. This is word for word how I met my wife. Oh except it involved a Seagate hard drive.
I’d hate to see how the Maxtor story goes. I bet it ends with a pretty hard crash.
Hard indeed! Har har.

Do any of the qt3 dating advice actually work?
It only works for ElGuapo.
That says nothing. My friend had been going steady with his girlfriend for weeks but when we waited at the railway station for her to show up he was all like: “Ah, here she comes now, oh wait, that’s somebody else. Wait no, there she… that’s not her either. I think that’s her over there,… yeah,… yeah,… no. Dammit, I don’t even know what she looks like anymore.”
They’re three months in and counting. The girl is hot, too.
Perhaps it’s a Waldo Jeffers type of situation.
