So here it is. I have been hanging out with this girl for about almost two months.

About three months ago, she got out of a year and a half relationship. So I figured I should wait a while before I ask her to me my girlfriend. Well coming up after two months of hanging out, I decided to finally ask her to be my girlfriend. Anyways, when I asked her in a pretty romantic time and place, she didnt really answer. First I didn't know what was going on, then I told her it was alright to say "no" but she didnt want to say that. So about fifteen minutes later, after talking about it, she really couldnt give me a answer or a reason. Finally she said yes let's do it.

By then I figured she it was all for the wrong reasons. So I told her no. Everything is still good, were still going to hang out and all, but I was just wondering what should I do. Should I wait to ask her out again, or what? Please help, I am really confused on what to do.

PS We are both 19 just to let you know, so still young.

Dazzerg agony auntIt is more than likely that her hesitation was caused by the fear of another committed relationship so soon after the breakdown of her last one. A year and a half is a long time and obviously it was a significant relationship in her life and maybe first one. I am curious as to what you think her wrong reasons were but I wonder if you said no because you were expecting a more emphatic answer and the fact that she couldnt give one made you feel a little uneasy and less secure.

Having said all that you do have to bear in mind she didnt want to say no and that is a good sign and probably makes it fair to assume she is interested. I think your idea to give it a little more time is a good one. Give her time to adjust to the idea and get more comfortable with it and go with the flow. Hope that helps.
