Asked how she was doing and if she wanted to meet when I brought back her car. Her answer was no, she couldn't but did I want her to call. I said no, dropped off the car and went on my way. All I really accomplished by this was pursuing (bad move) and getting rejected (sad move). I guess I have a hard time learning my lesson.
Seems to me you just did.
It's like that old joke: "Doctor, Doctor, it hurts when I do this (gesture)." Doctor: "Don't do that."
There will be time for those AOSs and thoughtful gestures down the road, L4S, if you play your cards right. It's not near time yet.
