So I went out with a friend from my inner circle since she broke up with her boyfriend a few months ago. I've always liked her and wanted to see where it could go so we went to a painting class at Michaels. Things went okay. It was nice getting to know her and I had a good time but I couldn't help but feel that we were going to be only friends. She was in a rush when we went home and I didn't even get the chance to try and kiss her because she was quick to give me the polite cheek kiss.

 

Anyway. After two days I was thinking that maybe we just need to do something a little more romantic or bonding I asked her to come with me to a concert in a few weeks. She responded a day later saying that she was sorry but she was day drinking and had a long day so she wasn't able to respond. Also telling me that she feels like she has something that weekend of the concert.

 

I thought about it and a couple of hours later I responded by saying that's it's okay and that I hope she had a good time. I also said that's it's okay and not to worry about it(the concert). I feel like if she really wanted to go with me she would try to make it work or at least remember the "plans" she might have. I did not want to pressure her and I also don't want someone who isn't as excited as me when it comes to seeing each other. She hasn't sent me a text since which was expected. I'm fine and I think I just need to move on but I just wanted to make sure and see others opinions. Thanks.

It's only been a few months since her breakup, she probably has those issues to deal with, and maybe she she had self serving reason to go out with you. i. e. Get her mind off of the breakup, which can be as bad as when someone dies, or a divorce. You get the jest its ver traumatic.

Don't take her late reply, or lack of enthusiasm personally. She's just going through a rough time. Don't push dating or getting romantically involved. If you are willing to just be her friend it may or may not evolve. Do what's best for you.

I agree. You're wasting time and energy on this one. Next.

Sounds like yours and hers interest levels are very unequal. You liked her all along, and she probably just wanted some company to take her mind off the break up. I would move on.

Thank you. All of your suggestions have helped me. Sorry it took me so long to respond. I've been dating other girls now and haven't even seen her yet. i still like her but I am not going to be making any more moves on her unless she makes it painfully obvious that she changed her mind about me. Plenty of other fish. Thanks again.

Glad you're out there dating. She wasn't interested.

 

If a woman is interested you will know. Period. End of story.

When I get a wishy/washy answer to a date I no longer even bother responding to them.

They arn't interested so why even bother?

 

instead I do what op did and look for others.
