<p>So I asked a girl to prom. I've known her for quite a while. She says yes, if she decides to go to prom, but that she might not go to prom. Then she tells me that there are lots of girls who might want to go with me, if I don't want to take chances. I respond brusquely and take this as a rejection, and then she exclaims that she didn't mean to turn me down, even though it might have sounded like it, clarifying that she wanted to me to "keep my options open." Then, I don't know, I apologized to her for interpreting it as a rejection.</p>
<p>Goddamnit, I was waitlisted/deferred for a bunch of colleges. Now this? What the hell am I to do? I really don't feel like asking someone else and I guess I don't necessarily have to go to prom.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t take it as a rejection bro. Afterall, she did say yes, I just think she’s unsure of whether she’s really gonna go to prom or not so she’s giving you other options just in case. </p>
<p>Even if it was a rejection, her loss right? :)</p>
<p>You say, “Well, there’s no point going if you won’t be there” in a teasing sort of way, and give her a smirk.</p>
<p>Eh, you might come off as needy with that line though. ^</p>
<p>^ It depends on how much he likes her though. If it’s a serious like, then just flippantly asking another girl to prom after and not seeming serious will probably ruin your chances.
idk, is she the type to want to go to prom? because it could be a soft rejection but I also have friends who would actually mean the ‘not wanting to limit your choices’ stuff</p>
<p>Just put together a group of friends to go, and that way if she goes, great! If not, great! win-win</p>
