Default How do you get back up from a turn down?

It's my last day in our school on thursday and this ridiculously gorgeous angel moves to our school who now has p.e. and world history with me.

I wanna get to know her before i leave. I'm planning to ask her to eat with me tomorrow during lunch since i'm leaving the day after that. I have no problem with being turned down but i always end up with awkward silence. How do i recover?

Well, she probably won't reject you directly or rudely. She'll probably give an obvious excuse and be nice, hoping not to hurt or offend. A simple "That's fine" is okay.










"If I do good, people might accuse me of selfish, ulterior motives, but I will still do it. Because I believe no one is malicious, not in their core, in their raw being.
The best in them is clouded by sorrows and fears, take those away and you'll bring out the brightest of lights in them.
Because no one can be happy without being kind, without giving ourselves to another, and we all love to give ourselves, it is our true nature.
That is why, even if I might get disappointed, I'll always give the best I've got. A single candle can light a thousand others and still burn."

Just say something like "Oh alright, cool, maybe another time then" and smile. That should be fine

She will say one of the following:
1. I'm busy (really means she doesn't like u) ... so u say oh ok well maybe sum other time (and IF she really likes you she will set the time).
2. I am dating *insert name ... you say oh I didnt know
3. Blah, blah, blah I don't like u like that ... you say oh that's ok, no worries

So basically there doesn't have to be an awward silence after she responds, you just roll with it regardless of how she answers (and if she says yes, you say nice/sweet/excellent/score/etc lol

I don't understand why you would want to get to know a girl you have never spoken to before... But I guess, just say "Alright, that's fine. See you later"








"A toothache, or a violent passion, is not necessarily diminished by our knowledge of its causes, its character, its importance or insignificance".- T.S. Eliot

this is how LAUGH and SMILE if you get turned down and think at least I tried and found out instead of doing nothing and thinking what could have happend. It's only a big deal if you make it a big deal don't over think it. and last but not least you have to ask her before you actually get turned down and even then she might not turn you down. Have confidence in yourself.
