If a girl says she will let you know, is she blowing you off?

[BlaykeFN]

Ok, so long story short, I know this girl for 2 years. I work at a workplace and she works at a fast food. Always see her and we say hi to each other. Due to COVID, I didn't see her for a year so I saw her this month for the first time. We engaged in convo and over time, I saw her once a week and since two weeks, everytime I go there to order or eat, she waves at me and then we make eye contact as well. Smiling at each other every other minute as well and stuff. I was contemplating in my mind if she likes me or not. I mean her body language really did show that she likes me and her personality is super attractive. So like I said, she only works wednesdays and then I went to her workplace this Wednesday and asked her if we could talk. So we talked and I asked her if she wants to go to the movies? She said umm maybe while blushing. I asked for her phone number and she immediately gave it to me. I texted her that night as follows

Me: Hey! It's (my name) Hope you are doing well. Saturday, let's grab food and hit the arcades and get to know each other better before our movie at 7?
If not, that's totally fine too :) No pressure, we could do something else other than the movie or idea I suggested.

Her: Hey, I think it should be next time because I go to Ukrainian festival on Saturday. Sorryyyy. Have a great day! (Blush Emoji)

Me: Of course. You have a good time. Does the weekend after this work for you?

Her: I think so. I will let you know.

Me: Sounds good. Just let me know what works. Have fun at the festival.

Her: Thanks (Smile Emoji)

No, just means she doesn't know right now. I mean it could but if you let a fish go without much resistance, then it's free to eat another day. So in this case, it sounds like she just said "I don't know, bye" and bounced. And if she answers you, she will. If not... well gently see what's going on?

Unfortunately, I think she may definitely be blowing you off.

"I'll let you know" seems like a good way out of a conversation without any real expectations.

[BlaykeFN]

Even if she gave her phone number?

[Secret6620]

Thank you for most helpful girl!

it can be but not always. My friend asked this girl out and she got back to him the next day. She did break it off with him the next week but he’s a bit of chav if you see what I mean. If she ever says she’s thinking about it just hope that she says yes.

[Guy13]

Yes and that’s not subtle.

One thing to say “we will”… you check your Calendar and I’ll check mine…

If she later give you attention and maybe tries to text you then you will know

[BlaykeFN]

When you say "If she gives me attention," you mean I shouldn't text her till she texts me?

[Astralumi]

As long as she doesn't forgot and doesn't have other things on her mind she will let you know. But don't try to pressure her in case she forget

[BlaykeFN]

Of course, do you think I should ask her next Friday "Any updates?" Or is that too clingy and desperate? I just don't wanna mess this up.

[Astralumi]

If you don't want to look clingy you may instead tell her something like "If you think is too soon or you already have other plans we can try another time, I totally understand that"
Or something like that. It's always nice to have someone to be comprehensive and since she is shy I think you should try like one step at a time. Shy people make one step at a time and they stop for a while, normal people tend to walk on. Just to say try to be in her shoes

[BlaykeFN]

Okay but I should say that next Friday right? I appreciate your advice.

[Astralumi]

When you feel the time is right (?) Maybe I mean who knows you may meet her randomly during the week and you can say it then. But yeah if no news till Friday you can tell her so on Friday

[In_Trance]

depends if she lets you know or not
