Do I still have a chance?

OK this is gonna be a long story..

So I met this girl a while ago, and we've been getting along great, I think she likes me because when we are together she's always around me. She's done that thing where they stare at you, smile and look away when you look back, also she often hits me with stuff and likes poking me etc, and smile when i hit her back playfully. Now I've done some pretty stupid stuff that I regret now, a couple times she tried to ask me to hangout (not directly but implied) and I said no because I was a dumbass.. or when she asked to borrow my stuff etc.

I finally got tired of acting like an idiot and decided to ask her out, where I ran into another mistake... I asked her out in front of her friends and I think she was embarrassed, stupid me. Anyways she made up some excuse and basically said no, and haven't talked to me since.

What can I do now?

Well...if she had feelings for you, surely she would have talked to you again by now? I don't know. Maybe she was flirting with you and you (quite reasonably) got the wrong impression?

Hummm...not in the next few days you have a chance.

Do some damage control, keep it safe, stay in touch, and try not to get it any worst. Try again in like a couple of weeks depending on is happening.

It sounds like she likes you, as you said she was probably a bit embarrased and that why she turned you down.

Leave her to cool down for a bit, and then try and speak to her when shes on her own and suggest you meet up some time.

Is it possible that she might've got the wrong impression since I asked her out infront of her buddies and rejected her request to hang out earlier etc.

Can I go get her alone and just tell her that I like her? cause sometimes I act like I don't like her and it's probably better to just let her know for good?

Yeah I think that plan sounds like a good one. You dont necessarily need to say it outright if you dont want to but imply it and suggest a meet up.

It does genuinely sound like she likes you, and even If she does turn you down at least your not in this stage thinking does she like me? does she not like me? blah blah.

Good luck with it all :smile:

Thanks, appreciate it.

I don't have a problem with saying it outright, but would that scare her off or something lol?

Yep defintely get her when she's on her own! But until then, if she does talk to you, act cool and defintely don't be embarrased or annoyed

I doubt youd scare her off, it just might come as a bit of a suprise if you've been acting all aloof. If you suggest a meet up you are pretty much implying you like her anyway.

Ok cool, just another question

ever since I asked her out, she's stopped talking me, when we run into each other she looks at me then just ignore me. Why would she do that.. if someone told me they liked me and I didn't like them back I would still talk with them and be friendly...

Maybe she's never had a boyfriend before and said no as a reflex because she was a bit scared. I was like that before I had a boyfriend. Although I was about 15 at the time

bahhh I've thought this over, I'm gonna talk to her about it, no point worrying about whether she likes me or not all the time.....

Wish me luck :biggrin:
