I'm starting to get close to a girl I met in a college dance class.
1) Ok. So you've already met her/ know her.
Dadude548 said:
She knows that I'm interested in her, and I may have come on a bit too strong at the start.
2) So she already knows you're interested in her.

This girl always maintains a packed schedule and just says she doesn't have time for a boyfriend or to date. I don't think she's feeding me a line simply because if she wanted a boyfriend she'd have one, no question.
3) She tells you she always maintains a packed schedule and just doesn't have time for a boyfriend or to date. And you just said you believe her because if she wanted one she could have one no question.
Does it HAVE to be you she chooses?

I've been trying to get her to go out dancing with me, but she's always had something come up. We went out one time but that was a while ago and we arrived separately and she brought friends.
4) You've asked her out dancing a few times, she declined or didn't answer and the
ONE time you met her out a while ago she brought her friends with her.
Dadude548 said:
The most recent time I tried to invite her to go dancing I sent her a text if she was going to go that night and she ignored it.
5) She ignored your invitation again. So that's what? At least three times you've asked her now? After she knows you're interested like you've said and as you previously stated you've been trying to get her out and she hasn't responded or shown up but ONE time she did was with her friends.

Thinking that she was a lost cause I sent her another text on Tuesday asking when she's going to get lunch on campus. By 12 I still hadn't received a reply so I ate lunch. On my way to my 12:30 class, I got a text from her "Now!" So she's not ignoring me, and was open to meeting up on campus.
6) She responds "Now" after you ate, but was open to meeting up on campus. Did you meet her? Or did something "come up" on her end?
Dadude548 said:
She has said that she's open to hanging out with me.
7) Saying it and doing it are two different things. So far she's all saying, ignoring, no doing. What's that like four times?

Wednesday I danced and had fun with her as normal. When class was over I was looking forward to the 10 minute or so walk to the parking garage where we then split up but before I could get to her, another guy approached her and they started talking. She grabs her backpack from the floor, turns around to look at me, and then she walks out with him. I follow them till my exit and from what I hear it's almost sounds like she was telling him directions to some place.
I have a feeling that she's chosen him over me, but I could just be overreacting.
So this girl who you believe is not looking to date, or have a boyfriend is too busy but you have a "feeling" she may be choosing some other dude. Why have that "feeling" if you "believe" her telling you she's not looking to date or have a boyfriend? Could it be because she's just doing talking and no progress to your desired goal by not showing up four or more times, but ONE time with her friends? As in her actions may be speaking louder than her WORDS?

I'm not sure how I should proceed with this girl.
You say you're inexperienced with girls. Do you keep asking friends to come out places and they don't show up and you keep on asking them and don't take the hint? You don't need experience with chicks to get a clue when someone either doesn't want to go, doesn't want to go with you, or has better things to do. You don't keep asking them anymore.
Keep things friendly and cool. Never let them see you sweat. Don't chase this chick and become her girlfriend or lapdog.
You've asked her out enough times already. She knows you're interested like you've said. You are doing the asking. She is just talking. You are providing her with "I feel pretty and wanted attention". She is providing you with talking and no shows.
Have some self respect. If she comes around. Don't ask her out again. Let HER come to you and ask YOU to go out. You've already asked enough. The ball is in her court since she knows you're interested. Let her decide. In the meantime don't wait around like a lost puppy. Move on. Whether she decides to date someone else or stay on her own.
