Been there, done that. I recommend using an opinion opener. Since I'm guessing this is in the morning act like you slept on the decision but you still couldn't get an answer. So you need her honest thoughts on the matter.

eventually, you'll have to neg this girl at some point just because of the time she spent not talking to you. But try to remember what you said to her the first time and post it here, so we can get a better idea of where exactly you stand with this girl.

its so easy to misinturpret negs. Negs are meant to put you and your target on the same ground once you have rapport built. For example, she may think youre funny but unless your value is equal to or higher to hers, high school or not youre in the ljbf zone. A neg would say "hey, im just as cool as you are maybe cooler."

People that point out harsh, almost insulting things are doing it wrong. A true neg is subtle, something like *did you know your nose wiggles when you laugh, its so cute* thats it.

Usually in high school and most school settings its about social circle gaming, but since youre just at a bus stop its about striking up a good conversation and you couldn't ask for a more isolated target.

Btw you need kino if youre trying to escalate. If you plan on eventually going somewhere with this girl then go ahead and throw in some light touching when the convo reaches a high point.
