Does she want to be my friend or not?!


Question Posted Wednesday January 17 2007, 7:59 pm

Jordan, a girl at my school, and me never have really known each other, but she seems really nice and I've been trying to talk to her. It just seems like she doesn't like me though. (AS A FRIEND! AS A FRIEND! I'm a girl and I'm straight. I'm just saying as a friend)I mean, I've talked to my best friend who is best friends with Jordan and I asked her if she liked me, but all she said was, "Oh, yeah! She just doesn't know you well." She's told me that about three times. I've even talked to Jordan on thecomputer and she was saying things like, "God, we never get to talk!" and stuff. The thing is.....when I try and talk to her she doesn't really try and keep the conversation going. At school she doesn't try to talk to me either. It's just like she's waiting for me to try and start talking. I'm sort of shy (not that much,though) and she's not shy -- AT ALL. So I don't get what she's doing. Why does she act like she wants to be friends, but then doesn't even try? Is there some way that I could become better friends with her?

God I just read over this. I sound like I'm asking my best friend if she likes me like as a girlfriend. So, let me just make this clear. I LIKE GUYS! Lol.

By the way....I'm not trying to "use" her or whatever. She's just really good friends with all of my best friends and she seems really nice and like a great friend, so I wanted to be friends with her.

EVen the most outgoing people get shy and have a feeling of awkwardness when they're around new people. Maybe she wants to be friends with you too and maybe she doesn't wanna say something stupid to drive you away.

But don't make such a fuss out of it. Conversations that you guys get into might become dull and boring to her and she probably doesn't want to continue it...I mean, admit it, you wouldn't want to carry on a conversation you have no interest in whatsoever. So just try and find out what she's into and talk about those stuff.

maybe shes just shy. Im really shy and sometimes people ask me "do you not like me or something cause youre not talking very much" but really its just that im not comfortable talking to people i dont know very well.

Maybe Jordan feels awkward talking to you because she doesn't know much about you and so she doesn't really know what to say. If your friends saying that she does like you then she probably does. Find something you two have in common to talk about. If its a tv show, sport, school subject, anything. Don't try to hard to talk to her just bring up casual conversation. Act relaxed and laid back. Anyways hope i helped =] Love xXxPuNki-PiXiExXx
