So we were lab partners last semester, we weren't really close but we were friends. I kinda like her, but I don't know if she likes me. I mean I am always the one who needs to text her, or e mail her, she never does it first. But sometimes she says stuff that makes me think that she likes me. Like one time she didn't answer my text, so I said in a joking way (after she told me her phone sucks so she never got the text) "I thought you hated me, and thats why you didnt answer the text" and she said "I couldnt hate you silly" so I am getting mixed messages. What do you think?

If you like this girl and you want to potentially start a relationship, you have two options. Either you be honest with her and ask if she's interested in a relationship, or you continue to play it close to the vest hoping for some big sign of her feelings. In my experience, that sign rarely comes. Women are just as guarded with their feelings as men. They don't want to risk sending signs of interest only to be rejected and have their feelings hurt.
Being honest doesn't neccessarily mean you will creep her out and lose a friendship. Most women will respect a man putting himself on the line and won't hold it against him, even if they don't share his feelings. As long as you are respectful and honest and don't put too much pressure on her, you can get an answer and know one way or another.
On the other hand, if you wait, she may find someone else willing to take that risk. You may miss out on the relationship simply because you didn't want to risk anything.
My suggestion is to be honest but play it as cool as possible. Tell her you had a lot of fun as lab partners, you think she is a great girl, and if she is ever interested, you'd be happy to take her out sometime. Tell her there is no pressure, and you would be happy to remain friends if that's all she's interested in. I doubt that will make her feel too uncomfortable, and you'll get your answer.

Well, its kinda early to say whether she did like you yet. From what i know, a girl will unlikely text or email a guy first unless she really feels comfortable with him or she feels that nothing will happen between the two of them.
Maybe she knew that you like her and she felt abit shy, awkward or embarrassed to reply to you. Or maybe she's confused. But its a good thing that she still keep on interacting with you in a good way.
So, for the time being , be patience. And hopefully the time will come to ya....Wish ya all the best!

you should ask her out, maybe she is waiting for you to text or email her because she wants to see if your really interested, thats how some girls are. You will never know if you could pull off being more than friends unless you ask her.

It sounds like she might be interested in you and she's just to shy...maybe you should try to flirt a little more and see if she flirts back...
Then if she does i think you should like ask her to hang out or something....not something super formal like a date...just like to the mall or watch a movie or something...maybe even start out with you and your friends and her...hanging out in a group will probably make her more outgoing and more talkative...and then see if she talks to you alot or other people in the group cause if she really likes you then she'll mainly focus on you...most likely.

Oh my goodness ... just ask her out already and instead of emails and text messages, just pick up the phone and call her.

The only way to know is to do something bold evwen if she says stuff like that it could just be joking or teasing, this is what I usually do if I like someone and I don't know if they like me I go up and kiss them.

Tough call here. Girls are very difficult to relate too. I have been in your shoes. My gut - you would need more evidence to know for sure. So - I wouldn't get my hopes up until I seen something more.

JUST MAN UP AND ASK HER!!! just tell her ur starting to think about her alot or something. Girls like boys sometimes and we are too shy to say anything. Sometimes we are DYING inside for u guys to give us a sign or tell us something. maybe thats what she wants. i know i like for the boy to give me signs..

you got yourself in a paradox. you need to talk to her. girls tend not to make the fist move. the worst thing that could happen for a few days you could be embarrassed to talk to her. during that time she will call you back if she wants to be only friends.

You may be reading more into this than you should. I would be a little bit more bolder and see how she reacts to it. Good luck.
