What would be the reason?

Girl who didn't end up being interested texted me randomly after a long time out of the blue. I know that could be attention, the thing is is when I met her I could tell she genuinely liked talking to me and asked for my number. I feel the thing is is I just assumed that when it was interest, when I realized after it was probably just in a friendly way (number/contact info isn't always interest). So then it got weird. Could she be texting me after awhile to try to just be friends again? Like I said, when I met her we had a good convo, but just that. Like after we exchanged numbers, a guy came by said he had an instagram, etc. She said I'll follow you. He then asked for her number to text her. She said I don't like giving out my number, you have my instagram you can message me there. So I doubt it's for attention, she wasn't interested, and I know when I met her she liked just casually talking to me. So it could be in a friend way, and since it's been awhile since an awkward misunderstanding, she texted me.

Yo that's a tricky situation but from what you described, it does kinda sound like this girl may just be trying to reset and be friends. A few things that make me think that:

- When you first met, it genuinely seemed like she enjoyed your conversation, not that she was flirting or giving signs of interest.

- She turned down giving her number to that other guy but took yours, so she saw you differently than him probably.

- A lot of time has passed since so any awkwardness over the misunderstanding could've faded on her end.

I'd say if she hits you up again to chat, don't read anything more into it than friendship. Just see how the conversation flows naturally - keep it light, ask how she's been, share something funny that happened to you.

Gauge her energy too - is she engaging you like a pal or seems disinterested? That'll tell you where her head's at. But going in expecting nothing more than friendship could allow you guys to reconnect without any pressure or weirdness.

At the end of the day she might just be looking to be cool with you like before. Give it a shot man - you've got nothing to lose!

Too many texting fails to take this seriously.
