I tried to make this post short, but I had to get in the details that were important. Sorry :o

 

At first..

We'd hardly talk, but I can see that she may be interested in me. She would try to be in front of me where I may notice her. Talk to people near me or simply have eye contact with me.

 

Then there's something which I believe is shyness. I got the feeling that she's interested in me, reinforced with people that she knows telling me that she likes me. But - the shyness - whenever we'd be in the same room, she's quiet or doesn't talk to me - unless I strike a conversation. Which gives me a sign that she may not be interested in me. Although, I'd notice that she would be looking at me. Fast glances, looks, look away - or we'd meet eyes and she'd look away or we'd both. Or her going into my view, where I could see her.

 

Then we were set up a date by her cousin.. Trying to make this short, before we went the movies, she kept her space away from me. When she walks by me into a room with the other girls, she looks to the ground, not looking at me. A bit awkward. Then at the movies, it was me who starts the talking, which was a good thing. We started talking all the way until the movie started; mostly casual talk about ourselves. Since it was cold and noticing that she had a purse over herself and huddling behind it, I asked twice if she was cold and if she wanted my sweatshirt. Both times she declined the offer and question whether she was cold. Then after the movie, I asked if she was actually cold, she said yes. In all the times I asked her, I noticed that she was either looking down, smiling, or possibly blushing (couldn't tell because it was dark, but her cheeks were apex'd. [and the eyes smiling])

 

Then once we left the theater, I decided to take my sweatshirt off, telling her that it'd be out and ready when she needs it. Since it was cold and windy out. Then - this was when she started to actively move a lot with her feet (move a bit back and forth), whilst staring at the ground. I'm guessing she was trying to hide something.. Possibly a smile, blush, or embarrassed. Once we got back home, she mentioned to one of her friends that she was cold; right afterward I reminded her that I offered to give her my sweatshirt. Then she laughed loudly and smiled widely and pointed at me. Basically afterward, we chilled and talked to each other until 5:30 am (was a bad idea - only had a total of 3 hours of sleep - but good since I got to know her.)

 

After all that, the next day she's shy or not interested in me. Keeping her space away from me, but until I asked her to join me in a game on a console. Then we talked some more, she laughed at somethings that were not a joke, but I thought it was cute.

 

Then, we parted our ways to meet again at a fair. Again, the same routine. She doesn't talk to me, but tries to be in my view where I could see her - for an example: I'd be ahead in line, her being behind and then she'd cut in front where I could see her. But doesn't say a word to me. That same day, I wanted to ask her out, had the perfect timing (when she was alone) and asked her. She said yes, I was happy, but then she said if she was in the same city. Since she lives in a different city, one hour away. I thought no problem.

 

Anyway, we all met up at a place, I was tire. So, naturally I closed my eyes and rested my head against a wall. It was quiet, since everyone else was tire as well - but I could here mouth popping, where you place your lips together and make a pop sound. I thought nothing of it.. Then I heard knocking sounds and I look and it was her. She was looking at me - then she says, "oh!" smiles and looks away. I was thinking that was a good thing, her wanting me attention but--- !!! The next day, she's the, 'quiet' type again. But, still wants to be in my view of attention.

Sounds like is shy and possibly inexperienced with guys. The shyness cues of being quiet, looking down and averting eye contact are tells. She probably does not know you all to well so is reluctant to be as extroverted as you are. If you really want to find out if she's interested, ask her out somewhere where it is just the two of you. I'd recommend a more casual setting like coffee or lunch where there is less stress. Either way good luck!

Thanks, that was helpful. The past week I couldn't work at all. Only think about the current situation I'm in.

 

I've been mustering up the courage to call her up. A bit shy on my part, but wishy-washy since the thinking.

 

Suppose to call her yesterday, the day before yesterday. Gah. I'm going to make sure I do it today.
