So i go to a commuter college. I think this girl likes me. I suggested we hang out during the summer, she said yes. I suggested we go watch a movie and she also said yes. All with smiley faces

Alright so today at 2 i txt'ed her saying if she wanted to go tomorrow

Then at 6 she txt'ed me saying

she could'nt and that she has some plans and put this emotioncon :/

So i am thinking of 3 possible reasons why she said this

1. Maybe she is in fact busy, perhaps she is going out with her family since it is July 4,or maybe they did not let her out becase it is July 4 lol. Or maybe she is going out with friends.

2. Maybe she is testing me, perhaps she wants to know if i am indeed interested. Or maybe she is just pretending to be busy to appear busy.

3. Or maybe she is just flat out rejecting me

Right the time is 8:30. She txt'ed me 2 hours ago. What should i say back?

Should i tell her

" I really do want to hang out this weekend. Its cool"

To see what are her true intentions, and perhaps maybe she can suggest another day?

ANYONE WITH EXPERIENCE? HELP!

I think she has plans. It's July 4. You can't ask someone to go to a movie on a major holiday.

Just text her back and say, "Well, have fun. We'll try another time."

Then try again for next weekend.

PS You didn't just "get rejected." She is BUSY. "Rejected" means she wants nothing to do with you. People who reject you don't text you with smiley faces.

How about you dial her number and actually TALK to her? I bet she can answer your questions.

Hopefully, this wasn't a last min invite? because some people are busy, and need to plan for things.

You didn't get rejected. Ask her the next time she will be avail to hang out.

She may not know that you're trying to date her. She may think you're just being friends. I suggest using the word "date" when you ask her out and don't do it last minute.

Look here fella. If you want to set up a date, its a good idea to call and talk, not text. That gives you a chance to visit, ask how she's doing, etc. Give her a chance to talk about herself, you listen and it tells her you care about her as a person. Then you ask for a date and give her some options as far as date and time, but have something specific in mind, like a movie or lunch. It gives her consideration that she has a life, and may already have other plans, with friends. Sorry to sound old fashioned but texting is very cold.

If you don't want to date her, then why are you contacting her?

Tomorrow is a holiday, she's probably had plans for a while.

It was a last minute invite, so I wouldn't call it a rejection. I don't think she's testing you, women generally don't do that kind of crap.

Try asking her again, but not on a holiday and with a little more notice.
