If a girl initially took a lot of interest in you & looked at you with admiration but then seemed to lose interest & rejected when asked out?

[Anonymous]

If you asked out 7 months after you noticed her taking a possible interest. She used to treat you differently to other friends, follow you everywhere, laugh at all your jokes, look at you with admiration and stare into your eyes. But after 6 months she stopped acting that way and when asked out, she said she thinks you’re a great person and she enjoys spending time with you but she just wants to be friends so doesn’t want to date.

She lost interest as you took too long to make a move

You misread her and she never liked you that way

Other

You said or did something which out her off

She discovered a red flag about you

[slatyb]

You asked, she answered. The reason doesn't matter. But FFS don't wait sux 6 months the next time a woman shows interest.

[Asker]

But surely the answer would be the same regardless of when you ask.

[slatyb]

In six months she might meet enter a relationship with someone else.

[Asker]

If she wasn’t in a relationship with someone else.

[slatyb]

If you sit back and watch for six months, she might meet someone else.

[Asker]

If she hasn’t met anyone else.

[slatyb]

If they flirt and you do nothing, a woman may give up on you as too passive or clueless to be worth dating.

[Asker]

And will never give you another chance?

[zagor]

Could be any of those.

Someone I knew claimed that you usually had a certain window of opportunity time-wise to get with a girl, and that after that had passed it was very rare and difficult.

[Asker]

Is that true though?

[zagor]

Dunno. But I have noticed that on a few occasions it held. Or maybe their opinion of me changed, or I misread their signals in the first place.

You probably took too long time to make a move... It seems like you're still hesitant even right now

[Asker]

I don’t think women just lose interest if they really liked him.

[Lone_wolf122]

Yes, they stay hooked for a long time but once they grow tired of you... it's over and hard to gain back.. Usually

[Asker]

And then they just reject him even if he asks her out?

[Lone_wolf122]

Yes usually

[Asker]

I dunno. I think if a girl rejects a guy she never liked him that way unless she met someone else or found a massive red flag in him. why would feelings just change over night?

[Lone_wolf122]

Think about this.. If you liked someone and they took too long to act on it.. Would you still be interested in them? Even if you still like them?

[Asker]

Yes I would.

[Lone_wolf122]

Really? I doubt it.. Well girls usually wouldn't

[Asker]

I’d give them a chance if they asked me out after months.

Who cares
