Am I wrong to assume that this is just an euphemism for "I can't think of a polite way to refuse right now, so I'll say that I'll think about it"? I actually saw her today, but we didn't talk. However, if she wanted, she could've very easily come to me, because we were both alone and not doing anything other than exiting the church.

Feels bad, man. Getting rejected by a woman is the ultimate form of rejection, because what it basically means is: "I don't want to get to know you better, because even now the possibility of pairing with you is impossible. If I can help it, your genes will not survive to the next generation. You are not good enough for me." Of course going out for coffee doesn't mean that you're going to get married and have children, but not going means that even the thought of that is unthinkable to her.

That's not what she's saying, anon. It's more like:
>My mission as the incumbent keeper of the genetic heritage created by God, crafted by Nature and Time, and embedded in the sacred vessel of my body is to safeguard my dowry. The scrutinous spirit of countless generations of valiant men and steadfast women guides and informs my every interaction with valid males of reproductive age. In the quivering balance in which arduous lust and stone-cold caution dance their timeless tango, your oafish countenance and sheepish bearing have pushed decisively on the latter platter before my mind could even scramble to rationalise the decision. I am designed this way and it is good that it should be so. Good day.
Good day, anon.

you fuckin tist, be patient. if she says she'll think about it, she will.
you're being exactly what she doesn't want, an obsessive fag who believes he's entitled to immediate response, as though she's your dog. you're also showing by being patient that you're her dog.
look. you're fucked. you're stupid and obscene and you can't write in english very well. just stop for a second, and ignore the sense that similarities in interest are what are necessary for building a long term relationship. people don't need to both love literature and listen to the same music or whatever to have a deep and meaningful relationship. that comes when the language of values not only can be communicated well, but are syncronized. your values and ethics are wherein a relationship lies.

look. you're suffering from infatuation. my best advice is to forget it ever happened. if she ends up communicating with you in the future, see how it pans out, but devote your mind to god, my friend, stray not into the path of perversion and obsession with carnality and earthly companionship. God's will shall come to fruition despite your resistance and support.

>Getting rejected by a woman is the ultimate form of rejection

Getting rejected by your parents is probably worse - because you are their genetic stake in the future and they STILL don't want to know :( That's pretty bad.

But I agree, getting rejected by a woman cuts to the bone, of course it does (and getting rejected by a man is just as bad for a woman; they just don't experience it as often, haha.)

It's no surprise that every culture develops such astoundingly intricate and delicate rituals around the whole process of mate selection. The fear of rejection is so awful that people need to hide behind as much circumspection as possible.

Impossible to give you any advice without knowing you, the girl, and the situation. "I'll think about it" might mean any of:-

a) "I would rather die than splice genes with you, but I don't want to hurt your feelings."

b) "I am not sure how serious you are. I'll put you off in a not-too-unpleasant way and see if you pursue me further."

c) "I'm not sure how I feel. I need to think about it."

etc

She sent me a message on Facebook, politely declining. She said that she feels like she wouldn't be the right one for me, i.e. I am not the right one for her. We can in her mind still hangout and get to know each other, but I don't know about that. I'm not bitter or angry, but still it feels pretty bad, and I don't know if I can keep on going like everything's the same as before. I imagine it's pretty awkward being the guy who she knows has a crush on her, if we do keep in contact.

I wrote her back a message, which was pretty good and profound in my mind, and now I'll wait for the reply. I said that I don't know whether or not we are right for each other, because I really don't, and that's why I found it a good idea to go for a coffee, so that we might maybe find out. I said that from what I know at this point, she seems pretty fitting for me, and I really mean it.

But anyway, at least this girl had the decency to give me an honest answer. The last one just said "I don't know", and that was it. Thanks for the (You)s, btw.

Brutal but [mostly] true. Also true for guys. If this guy had been super attractive, she would've jumped on your dick and also most likely thought you were a lot more intelligent and deep than you are or already may be. It doesn't matter how intelligent and deep you already are, if you're attractive, a girl will think you're 10 times more intelligent and deep.

hey man dont worry about it she can have other shit on her plate. Try not to think about it and continue to interact and be normal with her. In like a week or two ask her while at church or wherever you talk to her at and casually invite her to breakfast or something.

It's cool that you initiated, but back off and continue to do your own thing. She'll chase you and it'll be obvious if she likes you. If not, you'll find someone else. And remember, you're looking for a partner, not someone to validate your existence.
