Yes this is a whine thread but seriously I quit.

it was okay.
i never got a break.
so i was pretty pissed about that.
um, no it wasn't really busy.
i mean linda said it was, but it felt really slow.
oh, well i have cingular & i pay 30 for unlimited a month.
if thats what you mean.
and why do you want my cell?
sorry i'm asking, but i hate giving it out unless we're like best friends.
--------------------

I asked for a girls cell number after 2 weeks, and she replied with that. So do you guys agree that she hates me?

no...she's just not ready to commit to best friends yet. You could ask for a home number, I suppose. Hate would be like 'go away, don't call, I'm putting a restraining order on you', or something like that.

errm, isn't that an excuse...? I just feel like a looser for asking to soon, and that she now thinks I'm a creep.

It's just depressing when I thought I had a chance.

Keep in mind:

"Not yet" does not mean "Go away and dunk your head in a bucket."
"Maybe later" does not mean "Drop off the edge of the world, quietly."
"Not so soon" does not mean "Go play in the freeway."

All of those really mean, "Maybe, keep trying."

I would reply with something like "I'm sorry if I seemed too forward, I'd love to be friends with you. If you want to, later on, feel free to give me your cell number. If not, that's okay."

This lets her know that you have good intentions, and that you haven't shut the door on her, while allowing her a safe exit, so she doesn't feel bad about rejecting you.

She just doesn't feel comfortable yet, with the instant communication. Perhaps she has aspie tendancies.

Yea, I replied sorry about the cell thing, I just ask almost everyone to share numbers, so it's no big deal. She replied "oh it's cool, I'm just protective about that sort of thing, lmao. :)" So, I guess since she is homeschooled and doesn't know me all that well it makes sense. Still it makes me feel badly and it makes me feel like now I am afraid to talk to her. I don't like the phone either, I just do it to text, which I do like. Now do you think this means she would never date me? If she's afraid to give away her phone number to me after 2 weeks, I'd think she'd never date me after 2 months...
