clydeknowsbest Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 I was wondering if I could get some feedback from the community on this situation... I met a girl at school last year and we clicked off the bat. Soon after, she got my number and started texting me and that continued on the days we didn't see each other in school. Texting turned into hanging out more and more. I asked her out on a date to a concert and she said yes. We went out again a week later to a football game and it went well…she even bought me a gift. Looking back I feel that I should've tried harder to make a move and I really regret not doing so. About a week or so later I asked her if she'd want to go out again, but this time she rejected me and acted awkward. Overall, I was surprised because her attitude was really out of character, but I decided to let it go and move on and chalk it up as a missed opportunity. She texted me after the whole thing asking me how I was. When I asked her if she was upset about something, to which she acted surprised that I would even ask that and said that I didn't do anything that upset her. Over the course of the summer, she texted me a couple of times to say hi, but the conversations never really went anywhere. This year we have several classes together again and she always acts really happy to see me. She always seeks me out to sit next to me even if we’re in a large class in which she knows other people. We still talk, but I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve backed off considerably compared to the prior semester (neither of us text as much and we don't do things outside of class). Then last week, as I was getting ready to go home she came up to me and asked me to let her know from now on when I arrived on campus so that I could keep her company, which kind of took me off guard. I don’t mind continuing how things are now with us just being friendly in class because to be honest I know that if I start hanging out with her again routinely I’ll fall for her and I really don't want to get let down again or come off as being disrespectful for asking again. Nevertheless, my friends suggested just biting the bullet and asking her out again. I’m interested on getting some input (male and female welcome) on this. Do you think she has any interest in me or simply just wants attention? Should I continue to lay low and just keep it as a casual friendly classmate type thing or do you think there's any point in hanging out with her again? Thanks in advance for any feedback.
Lonely Ronin Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 I’m interested on getting some input (male and female welcome) on this. Do you think she has any interest in me or simply just wants attention? You have a better read on this girl than all of us combined, doe she seem like the type of girl that just wants attention to you? If you think she is the type, then you should probably just move on. If you don't think she is the type, then I think you need to have some kind of conversation with her.
Author clydeknowsbest Posted October 2, 2012 Author Posted October 2, 2012 Initially, I didn't think she was the type that was only in it for attention because she always seemed to genuinely care about me and enjoyed our time together. I just don't get understand she would want me around so much after rejecting me because it really isn't beneficial to either of us...I'm not saying that I would expect her to ignore me, but it feels like she's making more of an effort now to get my attention in school than before. Thanks for the advice, I'll try talking to her and just temper my expectations.
