There is this girl I am friends with, Jenny, who I go to college with. I have a fraternity formal coming up soon, and I need a date. A mutual friend of ours, Lydia, was talking to Jenny and she said she was going with me, before I even asked her to go. Jenny wants to go to the formal, and I think, based on this evidence, that she would like to go with me. She also used to like a friend of mine, who is in my fraternity, but the feeling is not mutual, and she is no longer interested in him (according to Lydia).

 

At dinner on Thursday evening, I was eating with a friend when Jenny and her friend showed up. I had to cut out of dinner early and failed to ask her to the formal due to circumstances with her friend being there. Its hard to explain but I felt that if I were to ask, Jenny's friend would feel completely left out, and I didn't want that to happen to her. She said she was coming to the fraternity house tonight, so I waited there until 12:30am, when she texted a friend of mine who was at the house and told her she wasn't going to come. I missed another opportunity. The next day, Friday, was the beginning of Spring Break. She left campus early, and I texted her in the afternoon wishing her a good time in California. She texted back like twice then said, "Well, I gotta go. Have a good break." I felt she was mad/upset/sad.

 

I texted her today (Sunday) asking her to call me at a convienient time for her. I was meaning to ask her to the formal and explain why I didn't ask previously. She texted back saying, "I can't talk until Wednesday." I was like, huh?

I feel that I messed up pretty bad. I kinda like her too. Is there anyway I can fix this? She does care about going, or she wouldn't be doing this, right?

 

THANKS

Yes. On Wednesday, call her on the phone (no texting, no asking for permission to call, no asking her to call you, okay?) and ask her if she'd like to go with you to the formal. All that other stuff you mentioned? Don't give any of it another thought. On Wednesday, go for it.

 

Edit: Also, no need to explain why you didn't ask her previously. It's not relevant. Good luck!

To add, she texted me this morning saying "Okay! Sorry! I barely have my phone with me. If you need help, call Mike" Which, Mike is the friend of mine that Jenny "used" to like.

 

What is this?!
