There's a girl at my college who I have many classes with. From the start of the year, I thought she was ridiculously gorgeous, and sort of made it a minor goal to get to know her/go on a date with her.
One morning after class, she was headed towards one of our dining halls at the same time I was, soI asked her if she wanted to eat with me. She said yes. It was a little quiet at first, but she loosened up and told me a bit about her. She's a LITTLE boring, but she's still gorgeous, and really laid back. I sort of like her.
But the second time I asked her to hang out, she brought her best friend with her, and things were a little different. I felt comfortable, but I could tell she didn't (sort of). After a while, things loosened up and we had a nice talk, but I could still tell things were a little different from last time. Then about a week afterwards, I asked her to go to dinner with me. She said she had to finish the paper our History teacher assigned, so I didn't think anything of it. But I told her we should get together another time, because I really wanted to hang out with her. She never responded.
I didn't put much thought into how she ignored my text until whenever I saw her, she ignored me. She wouldn't smile or wave, but I still was. After a while, I just figured she wanted her space, so I left her alone. I still am.
The twist to the story though, is I always catch her looking at me, darting her eyes away the second I simply glance in her general direction, and slightly mimicking whatever I do. Plus she's always twirling her hair or whatever whenever she looks at me. I'd like to take these as signs that she likes me, but what am I supposed to do? She won't speak to me?
I kinda like her, but I can't tell her that. And I can't just ask "wtf is your problem?"
It sounds to me almost like the friend decided she didn't like you or got a bad feeling from you. She either doesn't like you and likes the attention, or she kinda likes you, but trusts her friend's advice. That is how it seems to me, but of course I wasn't there and didn't read either of their body language.
well I think this is what's going on with her..number one she likes your looks but not your personality...number two she is just a flirt and that's why she twirls her hair and looks at you and stuff...and number three she could just not be ready to be in a relationship right now and she doesn wanna hurt you
maybe you came on a little strong. try making one of ur friends give her a note. I know its kinda middle school but its the only way she'll actually pay attention. she has to read it sooner or later. next time in class if ur allowed to sit next to her. maybe she was just trying to test you and see how much you'd try for her. but you gave up. so try harder. and maybe she did feel really uncomfortable but ask her things about what she likes to do and instead of sitting down and talking to her take her somewhere were you guys won't talk much. she might be shy. so talk her somewhere you can show her your a fun guy.
I think you overanalyzed the first time you two ate together, and because of that you seemed a little pushy. She wasn't sure if she would be comfortable so she brought her friend to assure it, She probably thought you were pushy. If you started leaving her be once she started ignoring you she probably became more interested simply because you weren't interested in her. Girls can be weird like that. Many girs want what they can't have. I would just leave it, if you see her randomly checking you out than just let that continue for awhile... siince your approach was unsuccessful let her approach you the next time, just go on like she doesn't exist. If she doesn't approach you you have your answer, if she does, have fun :)
If you still want to get to know her (I'm sure she isn't boring when she is among friends and is herself), I suggest you don't ask her out to eat anymore. Its a lot more informal to do homework togather. Why didn't you ask her about her history paper? ask if you could read it? you could have started a conversation on whatever she wrote, which would have led to other things. If she is doing really well in a particular class you share, and she likes you at all, she'll agree to help you if you ask for it. (Whether you need help is irrelavent. A person could always use a second oppinion on a paper, or compare chemistry answers...). Study for your next exam together. You'll end up taking "study breaks" where you can talk about other stuff.
Give her space, but if this keeps going on and you are impatient don't think of her much. Maybe she thought she messed up on the first impression. Whenever you are close and you still are interested say hello so she can hear you. If she doesn't reply then you should move on.
go up to her and talk to her about your situation with ehr because you won't know until you ask.. and PLEASE don't say 'wtf is ur problem' lolll because she will take it offensively (thats how girls are ) . But maybe she is trying to play hard to get, communication is key. <3
She could be shy. If she's not. She could be like me. When a guy expresses interest in me, like asks me out, and I don't feel the same way and don't think I could, as terrible as it is, I resort to ignoring him. If he's not a close friend or anyone I see on a daily basis. Recently, there's a guy like that. We went on a date and I just didn't click with him. He texts me here and there but I don't reply. If we wind up at the same party, I ignore him. But I do look at him from time to time just to make sure he isn't coming to approach me. I would just let her be. If she gets interested when you seemingly lose interest, she'll get in touch with you.
She might not have a lot of experience or she might be shy (I used to behave her when I liked a guy but was too shy to pursue anything). Or she might not be interested.
If you are getting vibes that she is interested, then you should probably take things very slowly. I would try asking her to dinner one more time... But this time invite her friend too and she will feel less freaked out. If that works out well, maybe try saying something low-key, like, "I really enjoy your company". Then leave her alone for a couple of days to get used to the idea that you might be interested in her and you're not pushy. Then ask her to dinner again--alone.
If she keeps blowing hot and cold, you should ask what her problem is--not, "wtf is your problem?", but more like, "I like your company and I'm just wondering if I did anything to upset you, because I felt like you weren't so happy to see me the other day.."
I think I would let this go. Sounds like a total headache. She's a LITTLE boring, doesn't have great social skills and on top of it all did not respond to your text. Hey, the year is young. If you end up running into her and both of you are in the mood to chat, go for it. But I wouldn't pursue her at this point.
At last, someone who doesn't deflect onto shyness or inability to communicate. not wanting to waste your time is a perfectly valid point, this isn't preschool anymore and playing hard to get is fun for the first 10-20 minutes, afterwards people should start being honest, even if they haven't been able to make up their mind yet - its not cool to make someone wait only because you can't decide not because you're flirting
I don't know bringing the friend over seems like a sign of lets just be friends or lets slow this down or I hope he doesn't even have the space to ask me out so I don't have to say no. I can't say whether the signals you see are real or imaginary. Maybe she thinks you are somewhat attractive but has a boyfriend or is set on making some other guy her boyfriend or has some reason she doesn't want to date you. You said you found her gorgeous but kinda boring. I would find a girl you find interesting. Sure you want to have sex with this girl but unless she is into casual hookups you are going to have to invest a lot of time and effort and you would sort of be dishonest and you would be have to go through a long journey of finding ways to happen to run into her dates that cost time and money and conversations you secretly find boring all just leg work for the final goal you may not attain. You would pretend you did all that stuff because you enjoyed her company but really you would be trudgin towards an end goal. Besides looks have very little to do with personality or with how good the sex is. I have been there before I don't follow my own advice, but take it from me not worth it. If she's georgous she's got guys trying to bump into her at the library and cafeteria all day and she can see right thru them and she gets to pick and choose. Unfortunately really good looking girls aren't usually very good girlfriends. Same is probably true of really attractive guys
Maybe the stupidist answer you're going to hear here tonight but if you have a mutual freind, why don't they mediate and find out what is on her mind? Is she interested and just not experiencec? Does she have a crush on you and gets stupid infront of you? Has someone told her you are just out to get in her pants?
Maybe a 3rd party could find out for you and not cause problems about you asking her directly. She could be intimidated by you and you approaching her directly could make things worse.
Eh...As much as it sucks to admit, I spose you guys are right.
But it's just, I don't want to give up on her just because she's a bit...Idk...Socially awkward...
She's cute, and real chill. I feel like she wants to meet someone just as bad as I do. I don't wanna just give up on her...But at the same time, I don't wanna waste my time??

Trying to begin something with a girl with the idea 'I don't wanna waste my time' isn't exactly the best way. If she got that message( implicit or explicit!) from you that would explain her reactions quite well. - A month ago
