<p>my only problem is that when you ask them out, what if they say NO??
because you have her in two of your classes everyday and you can't help but feel embarrassed the rest of the year.
Personally, I never had a girlfriend until senior year, and that only for a semester. I was really shy to even look at her, let alone go up to her and talk.
She had to ask me out. I am never asking out a girl. Too shy and I don't like to deign.
I know this one girl. She is really shy and sometimes I just looked around (stretched), she happened to be looking at me and whenever I caught her looking at me, she would quickly gaze down or look somewhere else.
I would sometimes go to a class early in the morning for tutoring and then she started coming early too.
Does it mean that she likes me?</p>
<p>Well if she says no, no offense, but you haven't lost anything by asking, because she didn't like you in the first place :)</p>
<p>but she will then look at you when you are in class and probably tell her friends that that guy asked me out and he likes me and all that stuff.</p>
<p>Are there any girls who have said no to a guy? How do you all react when a guy asks you out? Do you all feel shy too? And how do you feel after you say no to a guy?</p>
<p>it's not a crime to ask someone out who's not willing.</p>

<p>girls will typically tell their friends. i won't lie. but in my experience in being a girl as well as being friends with girls have taught me that usually good hearted girls will feel bad that they turned someone down. i personally hate making people feel bad and will try to make the letting down process as easy and smooth as possible. we girls also know what it's like to be rejected ( we're human too! :p) and therefore, unless we just happen to be straight up mean, won't try to humiliate you, demean you, or use you as gossip fodder for everyone to know.</p>
<p>If you can tell if a girl likes you, then you are the world's greatest genius, for the greatest enigma in all of history has been the mind of the female. :D</p>
<p>^^ lol, totally agree</p>
<p>I can honestly say that there aren't many guys at my school that I would say no to. I also can honestly say that I couldn't imagine liking many of those same guys in "that" way. I'm also pretty judgmental and have high character standards. However, if I were to be asked out, I would say yes to any non-jerky guy because... you never know! I think that most girls would agree with me.</p>
<p>^^ tru that!</p>
<p>See, I would call what LesOs does "leading them on." But to each her own :)</p>
<p>I wouldn't. There's a big difference between leading someone on and giving someone a chance.</p>
<p>She follows you around. I seem to do that.</p>
<p>OP: as people have said, it's nearly impossible to figure out whether the girl in question likes you. Unless she frequently leaps on you like a puma everytime she sees you (and even then, you can never be sure), you're just going to have to ask her to find out.</p>
<p>Fortunately, while we can't decipher the inner workings of the female mind, we CAN tell when a girl just ISN'T interested. For example:</p>
<p>1) She laughs maniacally when you get a D on your AP European History test, then proceeds to tell the teacher that you stole answers from her paper, a fiendish act which gets you kicked out of school.</p>
<p>2) She glowers whenever she sees you. Sometimes, she even punches you. Hard. In the stomach. And she doesn't regularly spar with her classmates.</p>
<p>3) When she and you apply to the same top tier college, she sends a "teacher recommendation" to said school claiming that you're the worst chemistry student she's had in 33 years...</p>
<p>4) When you ask her out, she says, "I don't date trolls."</p>
<p>Maybe when a girl really really wants your attention, she might resort to the tactics listed above. Mallomarcookie and others, would you say that someone would have to be ...somewhat... desperate to use such tactics?</p>
<p>Inner workings of the female mind.... You make us sound like broken cogs in a machine.</p>
<h1>2 is not reliable. Some people are exceptionally mean to people they are desperately infatuated with. It's not that far fetched at all. Come on, remember the typical "enemies" stereotype: the two people who are always told "stop fighting like an old married couple!"</h1>
<h1>4 is unreliable too. Sometimes a girl can't be sure when you're being serious, so she has to play it safe and act like she totally doesn't like you. In fact, when a girl acts like she really hates a guy, half the time it's because she really hates him but half the time it's because she feels the exact opposite.</h1>
<p>Seriously, stop trying to figure it out!</p>
<p>Cookie is correct. I once called a boy I liked an obese duck. And I know girls who flirt by hitting guys, so 2 is pretty unreliable.</p>
<p>See, you never will know the inner workings of the female mind.</p>
<p>In 4th grade, I was always really mean to the boy that I liked... like Helga in Hey Arnold!</p>
<p>Hey. You know you watched that show, too.</p>
<p>With respect to #2, I was referring to a genuine attempt at injuring someone, not the playful, "Hey, I think your abdomen looks hot." I think it odd for a girl to risk rupturing the someone's kidney just to get his attention. </p>
<p>I have to agree with you two, though, on #4. </p>
<p>However, for the sake of argument, just because condition 4 doesn't hold doesn't mean the end result isn't the same. Every boy I know certainly wouldn't want to be called a mythological monster that invariably appears in books and films as the dumb henchman of some magic-wielding villain. It would take an incredible mustering of self-esteem to recover from such a comment, especially if the girl makes no hint that she doesn't mean what she says. As such, a relationship would probably not develop; condition 4 is a lose-lose situation for both the guy and gal.</p>
<p>So there, females, I've twisted my logic to save face. Ha. Beat that.</p>
<p>No, I have genuinely hurt somebody that I like. Sometimes you kind of go crazy.</p>
<p>Oh. Well I'll be staying away from you then, Ms. cookie.</p>
