I started talking to this girl in class a week ago(college class we only meet once a week) on tuesday of last week.

This tuesday i got her number because we were going to finish a project for next week, but we ended up finishing the project in class. i wanted to do the project with her because i was interested in her, but since the project was done i just decided to ask her out to lunch instead.

the entire text convo went like this:
me:Hey since we finished the project early i was wondering if you wanted to get lunch tommorow instead?

her: hey sure i have dining dollars i need to spend too actually(was a reference to something we talked about earlier)

me: cool: is the MSC area alright? I dont really know everywhere to eat on campus yet.

her: yeah thats good. almost been on campus for half a semester.. you gotta figure that stuff out! lol there's really not too many places though.

me: haha actually ive been on campus since the summer. I can head there aroudn 12:30 if my TA lets me out on time


Well i ended up having lunch with her today for about an hour and it was fun. I made her laugh a lot, there werent really any awkward silences that lasted more than a few seconds(which was difficult because we were eating lol). But she somewhere in the conversation casually mentioned she had a boyfriend. I said something about how most guys my age are really immature and she said "my current boyfriend is my age" or something to that affect.

Im not really sure what to make of this. I didn't really try anything with her then and flirted with her a lot less after that cause it made me a little uncomfortable. Should i just stop talking to her? I'd like to be her friend but i'd rather be dating her(although im not sure now that i know she goes out with other guys and has a boyfriend) or maybe she didn't consider it a date at all? im pretty inexperienced and not quite sure what to think

No, she didn't consider it a date, you ask her because you two were working together and grabbing lunch is a good way to find out what you did, but the way you worded the invitation made it sound like it was a friendly casual type thing for a couple of students working together. It's probably why she brought up the fact she has a bf, just to make sure you knew in case the lunch was about more than being friendly in passing as she probably wasn't sure either.

No, don't stop talking to her or other girls you know either, keep it friendly, they happen to know other girls who you just might get a chance to meet as a friend or open up the possibility of being introduced to someone later .... most girls know more girls than they do guys, so keep that friendship open most ppl do meet their mates through someone else, in one way or another and one never knows what the future holds or who may open the doors.
Ok...

Well, you dont have to stop talking to her altogether; if you did that now, she'd just think you were weird, because she isnt aware of how you feel. I know you want to think it was a date, but really it was not a date. To her it was a "ok, the project's finished lets get lunch thing" but in your mind it was "I get to do lunch alone with a girl Im interested in..." See the difference?



When a girl drops the BF bomb in a convo, it means she is making it known that she already has someone in her life. I would keep it chill, be a "friend/ classmate" with her, and just see what happens as time passes as you get to know her. They may break up, he may move to a diff city for a job, etc etc anything can happen. But I would suggest to carry on with your life, and take interests in some of the AVAILABLE and single women out here... There are BILLIONS of us women out here, waiting to get to know you. And we can't if you are too focused on ONE girl, and the one girl who is already taken.... just saying.... billions of us out here... ;)

that is an extremely not elementary question that doesnt extremely have a proper answer. I honestly have lately discovered myself in the same project and to be instantly ahead the in common words element i can inform you is that the in common words way you receives over him is time. some may say to commence relationship someone new immediately yet because he will be a rebound no longer something will come from it and contained in the top you'll nevertheless finally end up interior a similar position. bypass out at the same time with your friends and only shop your self busy for the time to assist get your thoughts off of him. it ought to sense like the top of the international now and that you need to by no potential get over him, believe me I honestly were there, yet time will heal those wounds as not elementary because that is to imagine about.

To me, it is pretty clear that she sees you as just a friend and this meeting was just a friendly thing and not a date. it is up to you whether you want to continue talking to her or not, but she obviously just sees you as a friend so surely it would be better to keep her as a friend rather than having to stop talking to her altogether, because if she happens to split up with her boyfriend it gives the opportunity for you and her to have a change together who knows what the future holds? :)
