Should I keep trying, or give it up?

Question

Me and this girl have been hanging out alot recently, always with some of her friends because I asked her out, but her dad won't let her date me because I am older. One of her friends that came with us this friday was a pretty big jerk and made me feel completely isolated from the group. She tried to make me feel a little more welcome, but it was hard for me to enjoy myself either way. I tried to call her saturday to talk about it, but her phone was off. Then again yesterday and left a message asking if she could call me back. I know she is generally busy on the weekends, and also her phone is going bad (Last time we talked she made sure I knew she wasn't avoiding me, because her phone broke and she lost my number). The new phone she has is her old one, and it doesnt work well either. Trying to decide whether I should wait and see if she calls me, or if I should call her around a time we usually talk today.

Answer 1

Sorry to tell you this, but she is probably not interested, and this is her way of showing you. Forget about her and move on.

Answer 2

I think a lot depends on how much older you are than her. If she is a minor and you are not, LEAVE HER ALONE FOR BOTH OF YOUR SAKES. If not, maybe she just likes you as a crush and hanging out. I would not push it. IF you really like her and need to know, call and ask, do not make excuses for what she tells you. Be honest with yourself or you will only hurt yourself more and lose a good friend.

Answer 3

I wouldn't try calling her again. If she is interested in you, she will find a way to call u. And I'm wondering a little bit about all of the "phone" issues, this is normally just an excuse not to talk to someone... Also, calling her again may start to seem a little obsessive.

Answer 4

Sounds like you both are a little too immature for the relationship. Just become friends, and in a while when her Dad lets you date, see if you are still interested.

Or just buy her a new phone.

Answer 5

You say you are older, but you don't state your age or hers. You say her father won't let her date you - are you both still in school? You sound very young. You've only had to wait since Saturday and you're already panicking? Cool down! It's no wonder her parents are concerned; you sound rather clingy. Relax. She's a friend! You'll be talking to her again.

Answer 6

Call her once more. Tell her that you are calling once more because she had mentioned that her phone was broken. If she does not call back, don't call anymore until you 'bump' into her. When you meet her, you can tell her casually that you had left messages and if she got it. Gage her response and also her behavior after that. You can then decide for yourself if she is worth pursuing. Sometimes, it might be worth letting go.

Answer 7

Let her call you, but don't wait around for the call you most likely will not get it. She is trying to tell you something but you are not paying attention. Move on and get a life with out her..

Answer 8

first off, i think it's very sweet of you to make such a great effort to talk to her! that's a plus! second, i think that if YOU think it will be worth ALL this trouble you're going through, then definately go for it! but if this continues, meaning more than 5 times, maybe you should ask her what's going on. good luck!

Answer 9

u can call her and be her friend but I would give up the dating... you will get in trouble if u date her and u know it!! Leave her alone and let her get a new bf...its time u guys move on...
