writes: Hi, I have a somewhat strange situation. I recently met a girl in one of my classes through a team mate of mine. The girl turned out to be very nice, and in the same major as me. Anyway, yesterday I got an email from her asking to meet so she could borrow my vector/tensor calculus notes for a few days. I had no problem with this, so we met this afternoon. I gave her the notes, and answered some of her questions on the subject. I frequently tutor people in math/physics, so this was normal. After that, somehow, we started talking and continued talking about various things including politics, math, physics, future plans etc for 1.5 hours and only stopped because I looked at my watch and noticed that I was running late for another event. Had this not been the case, we would have probably talked longer.The weird part was that I made several tests to see if she wanted to leave or that I was not holding her up or anything, and she just continued to converse with me. It was very unusual because girls, particularly pleasant/attractive ones, tend only to talk to me when they need help in a difficult math or physics course. Anyway, my question is why she would want to talk to me? Could she just be an outgoing social person, or did she want to spend time with me in particular? I am rather confused.Thank you, Reply to this Question Share |

It sounds like she's really interested in you as a person; I mean maybe this friendship is something more. It seems a little bit like she is developing a crush for you. I would just wait it out, don't make any hasty movements, and start to spend a little bit of time with her throughout the month. And once in awhile try something maybe not school related or see if she tries to take you out somewhere where academics aren't the main topic. It is not unusual for an attractive women to crush on a guy who is really into school/work. :)

Shockingly not all girls are shallow and manipulative.
It is entirely possible that she is a nice person and she was enjoying your chat and probably now sees you as a friend. I'm not a super model or anything but I'll chat to anyone as long as they are interesting. If you click with someone then you'll chat away for ages and just not notice the time.
It's also not entirely beyond the bounds of possibility that she likes you as more than a friend.
At the very least you have made a new friend here. Give her a text and ask if she wants to catch up for a coffee some time.
Good Luck!! xx

Well I think it's too early to say yes or no to be honest. You just gotta wait a bit. Maybe next time, you can try get her number? or email addy? That will help you understand a bit more about her.
