Before i get to the issue here's the "prelude":

There's this hb8 in school who is giving me ioi:s, the prob is lately its been kinda hard to talk to her(we've been busy and there has been some weird tension between us).

Anyway i "opened her up"(vaguely referring to the tension) a couple o days ago and i noticed she wanted to conversate with me(by initiating conversation and her enthusiasm).
Today i sent her a text asking her which classroom we were in(i was late). She responded well by text-laughing(it wasn't really that funny... although i'm practically late for every class). At our break she iniated conversation by mentioning the text etc.(She was smiling and it looked like she had wanted to talk to me). So we started to conversate but more people(girls) joined our group. So i also talked with them about some cellphone tune on of them had(i was genuinely interested). But then she changed, i felt like she almost felt(damn, weird grammatics) "threatened", in lack of better terms, by this girl cause she suddenly talked less and her posture was more insecure than before. I tried to get her to talk by asking direct questions but that only worked so-so. I'm thinking maybe she's unsure about my intention(i haven't really showed SOI:d).
[END OF PRELUDE]

When i got home i found out that i need to buy my sister a christmas gift i had forgotten. So i thought, hey why don't i ask her(the hb in the prelude)to help me do this since i have no friggin' idea what my sister wants. Also maybe i can ease her tension a little by doing this since that's pretty casual. So I'm planning on sending her a casual text about this and that i need a woman to help me or something. A little note is that we haven't spend time alone after school(in case anyone finds that relevant etc.)

So any comments and/or tips?

Not sure what advice to give here except think of a contingency plan if she doesn't go shopping with you. To improve your odds of success, don't ask her if she wants to go or not, instead ask her if 6:30 or 7:30 is a better time for you to pick her up so she can help you pick a xmas gift for your sister. Use whatever times you think will work best. It doesn't matter that you don't know where she lives. She will tell you afterwards if she is interested.

Well to be honest i'm not really "afraid" of getting rejected on this particular one because, well i really do have to get that present and i really dont know what to buy. In case she says no i'll probably go something like this: "I guess i'll have to call another girl then, but her taste sucks. She once bought my friend a pair of... so i hope i don't freak my sister out!".

Edit: I just got an answer.... she thought i sent the text to the wrong person. Haha thats a tough one.

Ok here comes the complete "close" on the whole texting. It sure was a tough one for me, but i managed to stear clear through it.

"I sent it to the right person.The choice stands between you and a girl that keeps telling me she's french(it's somewhat true)Other girlfriends are no choice since their shopaholics."

HB Answer:
You sent it right? I'm not really sure i'm getting this right. I'm *hb* in your class, it really feels that your sending this to the wrong person. IF you haven't sent it to the wrong person, like you are saying, why would you like to go out in town with me? You've said so many weird things to me and been so cocky and said that i need social support:\


This was a shittest but i felt like she also felt offended(duh) so here comes my answer:
hmmm... i'm used to talk like that since my whole family does it so i didnt mean any harm. I gotta buy a present for my sister even if you don't want to come... guess the french girl will suffice*sigh*"

Her answer:
"Oh... I thought you directly meant to be mean. It felt like that. I'll be in town like the whole day tomorrow haven't bought a single christmas present. yes, we could see eachother then, if your already there i mean."

Me: no answer,(i felt like it was understood that i would call her tomorrow)

Her after a while:
"Eee...hello? (priceless)

Me:
Hello hello. I'll call you tomorrow when i'm done with my first errand. around 1 o clock


The mistake i've made with this girl is that i haven't been so comfort building lately so i gotta check up on that... yeah serious cb... any tips or comments?
