Tonight I was working (musician in a covers band) and met a CuteBarGirl who was working at the venue.

We chatted (over the bar) a bit, and I felt it was going quite well, seemed to be some verbal IOIs. Only chatted for about 5 minutes due to time constraints.

Later, I was chatting to BarGirl2 (who had finished worked for the night) and her friends in a group. We got onto the subject of CuteBarGirl, to which BarGirl2 said "She's single, do you want her number?" I laughed and said nah I'll ask for it myself.

A little later CuteBarGirl was walking past, and a guy in the group (who I had friended) called her over and said "Have...you met my friend PUAlurker?" CuteBarGirl blushed and acted a bit embarrassed, and kinda ran away. Later we made eye contact and I got the vibe she was keen, but not wanting to chast in front of a group of all her friends.

At the end of the night after we packed up we got a chance to talk:

Me: "I don't know much about you, apart from the fact that you've got a nice smile, and I like to think I can judge people alot by their smiles, so I'd like to get to know you better. Maybe tomorrow arvo?" (Note: I am busy literally everyday next week, which is why I brought up the logistics of setting up Day2 for Sunday. The alternative in my mind was: #-close, then give less than 24 hrs notice for Day2, subsequent flake, I wouldn't be available for a full week, and it'd be hard to set up another Day2 that far in future)

Her: "I'm working tomorrow, when are you guys playing here again?"

Me: "Literally all-day tomorrow? All 24 hours?" (grinning)

Her: "Yep, I'm pretty busy"

Me: "Well I'm busy everyday next week. When do you finish tomorrow?"

Her: "10:30"

Me: "Would you be free to catchup after work then?" (Note: from previous convo I know she has work 8am next day)

Her: "Sure, come on down. I'll be here"

Me: "Maybe if we had some way of staying in contact we can sort it out..." (trying to (lead her to suggest she gives me her number)[http://www.reddit.com/r/seduction/comments/ecmm8/how_i_go_from_number_to_first_date/]

Her: "I'm really busy, I'm not worth the effort"

And here's the problem I run into (apart from the fact that I didn't have enough time to build comfort), how to respond to I'm not worth the effort.

1) If you try to say you think she is it that lowering your value relative to hers?

2) I cvould say "Perhaps, but I'm a very good judge of people" - thereby focusing on a positive social trait of myself, rather than coming across as needy

3) Is this a shit-test I should have agreed and amplified. "You're totally not worth it, why am I even wasting oxygen talking to you (shit-eating grin)"

4) Any other ideas?

TL:DR; Went for #-close, girl said "I'm not with the effort", I wasn't sure how to respond."
