- I sent her more than 2 texts without a response. Oops.

- Please...
- I like her lots so I forgot the rule. I will tell her I'm sorry and then ask her to be my gf.
- Sry about all the txts! I just want to ask you if u will be my gf?
- Remember, messaging should only continue when both people want to keep talking. It is considered inappropriate to keep messaging people who do not respond or continue to message someone who has asked you to stop
- Sry I don't like you like that.
- I don't like him like that. I want to be his friend but I don't want to date him. What do I do?
- We should tell people if their actions make us uncomfortable or if we are worried about them. We should also apologize if we make someone else uncomfortable or make a mistake.
- Everyone hates me! Why won't anyone be my gf?!
- It is important to read people's cues to see if they like you. Do they smile when you talk to them? Do they respond to your messages? Do they start the conversation sometimes?It is OK to tell someone that you like them but they might not feel the same way about you.
- - Will you be my bf?I don't like you like that. Can we be friends? -
- Oh no... I am so embarrassed
- If someone wants to date you or shares that they like you, it is OK if you don't feel the same way. You can nicely tell them that you don't like them in the same way. If you want to be friends, you can offer to be friends but you don't have to be friends if you don't want to. If you don't know the person, then you should not send them messages.
- Rejection is part of the relationship process. It is important to look for a "good match." Some reasons for rejection: Maybe the person is dating someone else, too busy with schoolwork, or maybe just not interested in a relationship with you. It’s impossible to know for certain why someone does not want to go out on a date.
- It is OK to be sad, angry or upset when someone says no but we must accept their answer. Rejection happens to everyone. We can use coping skills to help ourselves feel better when someone says they don't want to date or don't want to be friends.
