Shooting my shot.

I have this female a note, shooting my shot for a date. Although I believed I done so in a decent manner, I done so discreetly... Before shooting my shot I she did flirt once and showed her snacks with me before. So I may been a sucker for believing she liked me so I shot it. Before this we cordially speak/greet each other,  maybe joke here and there nothing more. Here's the twist; the note that I have her was responded to 3 weeks later. I was fine with the rejection, but the confusing part was her waiting 3 weeks to tell me she was flattered and taken... Now I feel as though there's some unnecessary tension between us even though we barely know each other. I believe I did it right but I put her on the spot. But why wait 3 weeks to respond if takn

I highly doubt me saying anything. I not gonna give her any idea that I'm chasing her because I'm not. That why I haven't addressed it. I let it go. Just the hot/cold behavior. Idk...

why wait 3 weeks?  probably because it is pretty low on importance and she probably didn't care

I mean, what does it really matter how long she waited before responding?  The bottom line is that she turned you down.  So just move on.

Yeah, three weeks. I guess one week, 10 days max would have been enough to think about what to answer. Maybe that's what happened. She thought about what to answer, then other things got in the way and then it became 3 weeks.

About the waiting time: the message caught her off guard and she didn't know how to officially react. She went with the honest answer in the end, as she was flattered but taken. Which makes me think she likes you, but can't think of you that way right now, as she's in a relationship. Had she not been... you draw your conclusions.

Tension: yeah, you put it out there and now think it would have been better if you hadn't. But now she knows. So you shouldn't regret it. You never know. I'm not sure how old you both are, but relationships come and go when you're very young. You never know. Be happy she knows you like her. What did you write exactly? Sexual tension might be there now should you meet her again in person. Texting could get awkward. But if you like her, be happy it's that way rather than being friendzoned. That'd mean she doesn't see you as a potential partner.

Answering her text: now you don't feel like answering her text, it looks like you lost any interest in her. Is it so? If you still like her, you could write something like: Well, I can't blame you for being taken. Our paths might meet again, who knows what the future has in store 🙂 (the smiley face's very important as even if you got the blow, you're still positive and hopeful)
