Search Results: good time to pursue him

- She likes most of his Instagram posts
- He often initiates on Instagram or fb in reaction to one of her stories but she responds with lengthy responses and the conversation tends to continue.
- In person, they only see each other when the group they’re part of meets but she tends to initiate the conversation with him even if he ignores her. They tend to talk for a long time.
- She was once being pursued by another member of the group who wanted to take her home at the end of the day. The pursuer was trying hard on the train and her being nice was probably giving him good signals. She also tried to keep talking to him (friend) to try and get away from the pursuer. Friend walked off and left them to it. She somehow got away from pursuer and chased after the friend.

So I asked this girl out early in the week, and she gave me the dreaded "maybe." She said that she will have to see. We've already gone out a couple of times, and even after she said she wanted me to meet her girlfriends, and how she felt blessed to have me in her life; she somewhat inexplicably said that there had been another guy she was talking to, and wanted to pursue things with him. She and I have always been respectful, super straight up with each other, and I only knew her for a month, so it's not like there is any weirdness or hard feelings about it.

He shot her down.

Now, even though she had created some distance before, I figured that I would ask her out again to see what happened, and that's when she gave me the maybe. There are very good, perfectly legitimate reasons that she would have to see if she could get dinner, as she's a single mom. I asked her out on Wednesday, and I didn't hear from her on Thursday or Friday, so I assumed, of course, that she wasn't interested. That leads me to the situation of concern.

Last night, or Friday night, at 3am, when I'm at work (and she knows this), she publicly posted a bunch of super sexy selfies in her bed. I don't know if she was out clubbing last night (she usually posts group selfies with her girlfriends when she goes out), but she posted the pictures on her story, saying that she was having trouble sleeping. I responded to the post and asked her if something was on her mind (kind of as a joke, kind of curious) and she said "no lol I just needed an excuse to post 😂".

I know that the fact she posted those pics publicly means that they weren't for me, but posting at 3 and 4am is unusual for her, and she knows that I'm up and about at that time of day. I can't help but wonder if she might have been inviting me to make a move without actually inviting me.

Am I crazy?
