Now I've known (or thought) this to be a trademark of a girl not interested. That's just obvious, yeah?

This is a girl who had a huge thing for me while I was still dating someone else. But I can't tell if she still likes me in that way anymore now when I'm single.

So before the first date, I asked her out one night and she said she couldn't, she was busy. She didn't tell me why she was busy and didn't offer an alternate time. I thought ok, she's moved on, time to move on myself. Didn't text her again after that. But she contacted me again 2 days later to initiate conversation; we talked for a little and I figured this was my second opportunity to ask her on a date. Which I did... she said she couldn't that night, but offered another night.

So we went on that first date and it went pretty good, but she was definitely guarded. Wouldn't give me any opportunity to kiss her or anything. I couldn't tell if it was cause she was nervous and wasn't ready to take it to a physical level yet, or because she wasn't into me like that anymore.

That was Sunday night, I didn't talk to her Monday. This morning I asked her to go to the mall with me tomorrow. She said she couldn't cause she works, so I asked about the following day. She's babysitting her brother's daughter. So I said that maybe it'd be easier for her to let me know what days she is available. That's not something I'd normally do, but given last time and that she didn't offer an alternate time, I figured I'd skip that little social cue. She hasn't responded yet

Should I throw in the towel on this or what?

Yeah throw in the towel. I strongly feel that if someone wants to see you they will fully explain why they can't and give many other options. Even in friendships I think this should be the case. Certainly with romantic stuff and dates, you should put forth effort into trying to make a date happen.

I agree. People have busy schedules, but if they're interested in seeing you, they'll tell you when they're free.

Somebody who WANTS to get together with you will communicate to you when that works for them.

So you gave a text asking for times she'd be available and she didn't respond yet? I would say things are still open enough that throwing in the towel now would be you rejecting her.

True enough. How I take it from here will be largely dependent on her response to that text.

Texting slaughters early relationships. You should always establish only calling asap.
