collegeguy2004 Posted December 25, 2004 Posted December 25, 2004 Hi everyone, Thanks for taking the time to read this. I need a couple second opinions on this. Too make a long story short, I met an absolutely amazing girl in one of my elective classes who is four years younger than me. (I'm 22, she's 18.) I started talking to her in class, got her number, studied together a couple of times and then asked her on a semi-date. (We went kayaking on a lake near our school.) Everything seemed to go okay (we spent almost three hours together, not the one hour I had planned, and it was her choice to keep going!). I talked to her on the phone the next day, saw her in class on Tuesday and walked her to her dorm, saw her on Thursday and again walked her to her dorm and everything seemed fine. Here's where it gets interesting... Since I knew she was a big fitness person, I told her I was going hiking that weekend and asked if she would like to come with me. She wasn't familiar with the mountain, so I told her how close it was to the campus. (About a twenty minute drive on the freeway.) Then she got really nervous, started to blush and said quickly said that she couldn't go and goodnight and walked away. My first reaction was that she just decided that even though we had a lot of fun kayaking, she wasn't interested in going any further. We didn't really talk a whole lot after that, but over the last month it seems like things between us started to get better. She started talking to me again, she sat next to me in class again, I called her and she agreed to get together to study again, etc. This is exactly what we did right before I asked her out the first time! Should I give it another shot? Any advice on how I can get a better idea about how she feels? (She's the only freshman in the class and I don't know any of her friends.) Any help would be greatly appricated!
AlwaysAlone Posted December 25, 2004 Posted December 25, 2004 Hey, Personally, I'd ask her out again. But I'd refrain from going to 'secluded' places (such as hiking). I think you might have scared her off a bit by asking to go hiking. I could be wrong, but I have the feeling that you asking to go hiking, alone, made her think that you wanted to 'do stuff' with her. I say, ask her out again, but this time ask her to go to the movies, dinner, a basketball/football game, etc... Cheers, - AA
