Heres my situation

met a girl, we have hung out with mutual friends a few times. Other day i asked her to dinner, her response was possibly to which i replied, alright well ill take that as a yes, and you can come get your free meal and never talk to me again (jokingly)

Next day our mutual friend told me she planned out going to the date but wanted to play hard to get and would say yes once i called later in the week

THE PHONE CALL

i waited 4 days and just called now. She "missed" the call, one minute later i get a phone call, i arranged to have dinner with her. Her response was. uuuh yea sure, but it cant be long i have to study, i was like alright. She said she gets off of work at 7 and will be ready at 8, then said i should remind her. i was like you want me to remind you... uh ok?

So i have this date, how do u guys interpret the way shes been acting?

Couple suggestions:
YOU should set the time and day for a date. "I'll pick you up at 7 on Friday."

Don't offer (up front) to pay for a girl's dinner with you. You don't need to offer that to entice a girl to come out with you. You CAN pay if you feel it is appropriate, but don't bribe her into it.

The fact she "missed" the call and phoned you right back is good, but she played you hard on that call. "I have to study" - false time constraint: every student ALWAYS has to study... "You should remind me" - you want me to send you a postcard? The best you can do is simply forget she ever said those things.

Show up at hers 10-15 mins late, without reminding her (obviously). That way, if she is actually really looking forward to it, boom, you have a bit of anxiety followed by relief when you show up. That's good. If she isn't ready... then find a way to invite yourself in to "help her study" or take off. Up to you.

OR, depending on her living situation, you could (if you have skills in the kitchen) bring some food and a bottle of wine and cook with her for your first date. It is cheap, you have a bed to move to if it goes there, and you can show off your personality better than in a restaurant or pub.

But I digress. Don't over-think it and ruin a good time.

Proceed with caution if you ask me, her asking you to remind you, to me seems like a get out, so if you don't remind her, she will say she forgot and stand you up, be careful.
