I need opinions about a girl I’m trying to be friends with, because I genuinely can’t tell what her behavior means.
We’ve known each other for a few years but were never close. Recently we started talking more because she reached out after seeing me at a school celebration. The conversation was good and she even said she enjoys talking to me, but her behavior confuses me a bit.
Online, she views my stories instantly (she told me she’s on social media 24/7), but she rarely reacts or comments. Sometimes she replies quickly, other times she disappears for hours even though she’s clearly active talking to other people. I’m not upset about it.. it just makes it hard to understand how interested she is in being friends
In person, we usually just smile at each other when we pass by, but recently she started coming to talk to me during breaks. She always chooses the shortest break though, and when I said I could visit her class instead, she refused and said her classmates might try to "embarrass" me.
The part that kinda give me the ick is that she somehow knows a lot about the people in my class (even students I don’t follow or talk to!). She knows their names, who hangs out with who, and even sent me a story from a classmate’s account that I didn’t even know existed. It made me wonder if she keeps tabs on people in general or if it’s just her personality.
I’m not expecting anything from her, I just can’t tell what her behavior means. Is she trying to be friends? Is she just very social? Or is she not that invested and just talks to everyone the same way?
I’d appreciate any perspective because I’m honestly confused and suck at reading social cues. #relationships source
