Last week this really smart and cute girl in my class caught up with me (& touched my shoulder) afterwards and we walked together for a while. Though she is cute, I definitely am only trying to be friends. So I decided, next week I will see if she wants to chill after class. So we walk together at the end again, at the corner where I turn, I said, I'm gonna grab some food, wanna come? And she gets super flustered and literally didn't stop talking but did not form a coherent sentence for a good 20 seconds, while I stood there smiling, understanding it wasn't gonna be a "sure." I also tried to interject, to say it's ok! But she said she had too much stuff to do that night, so I said, alright, see ya! cause that's where I was going my own direction. She was still flustered and kept saying funny, flustered things, including "have fun with your food." She was definitely out of it.
But she was totally normal until right then! So basically, i'm trying to figure out if she was creeped out by me (even though I tried my best to keep it casual). Or if she was genuinely busy but was still interested in hanging out sometime. Since we have a class together, perhaps that is why she didn't offer up another time. Also, my offer was kinda for the here and now, hungry so lets go eat type of thing. Also, she was, like I said, absolutely flustered. It was cute! But I just gotta figure out where I stand so I can leave the poor girl alone if she doesn't want to be friends.
Some of my female friends have told me that its really the opposite of what i fear, and that she got flustered because she liked me and not because she didn't. But I really don't want to suppose that and come on too strong!
