Search Results: is staring attraction

About 2.5 years ago there was a girl in my college class who had a HUGE crush on me; she flirted with me aggressively: she would stare at me for minutes at a time and never look away whenever we made eye contact, she would constantly smile at me, and she even eye f***ed me once. She consistently flirted in this manner for the entire semester. Despite this, I never talked nor said a single word to her, and I don't think I ever flirted back, because I was in a 1-year committed relationship at the time, which she was unaware of. However, after I broke up this relationship after the semester was over, I began to develop a crush on her too. Fast forward to the present, I see her again on campus, she notices me and begins to blush and display other signs of attraction towards me, this leads me to believe that there is still a chance between us, later during the day I approach her on her way to class, she receives me warmly but says she's in a hurry to take a quiz, I ask her out, and then after 5 seconds of her thinking about it, she gently rejects me. Recently, I've seen her looking at me from the corners of her eyes with a happy/sad look on her face as she passes by me and then looks down; other times, I think she tried to avoid and ignore me. What does this mean?
