I gave a girl a gift a week ago and she texts me asking me making sure if the gift is just friends purpose.

Reason for the gift was I was going to tell her that we should not see each other anymore. I never said it at the time. Though I might still want to game her for experience now that she has brought it up.

How should I reply? I am going to open loop it then follow with I guess one of the following? Neg/qualify/slow down/drop her/tease/value. It is best to exit now before she drops the bomb but how would I make her think of me more in the non-ljbf stage?

Should I use all of the above someone please help me out with what i should say. So I can text her back.

(info: kind of busy, people tell me to just ignore her text and live on with my life)

That.

Why in hell did u send a gift. Makes no sense

Went on a trip across the world and said ill bring her back something.

We go to school at a pretty small college so it is pretty easy to bump into each other, i feel like doing a qualify routine but probably does me no good. *shrug
