    I read between the lines and it seems to me she would like to be more than an acquaintance and/or hoped you felt the same way. I.e. rushing to answer questions with a negative response before you had a chance too so she doesn't lose face etc...

    Seems a funny way to behave toward someone that you are hoping to be more than an acquaintance with to me. By responding the way she does she wont just lose face, but also erode any chance of someone wanting to know her on anything other than a very causal basis.
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    DUTR please learn to recognise the smell of cooking bunny and when you do make like Usain Bolt.

    DKLS has got it spot on. That 'Sorry x' could have a number of explanations. Something tells me you are going to find out what one applies this time, in texts later on tonight. Hope this lady stays calm and rational and doesn't bombard you with any more silliness.
