I essentially gave this girl my number through teams at work on friday and she responded with this today.

“hey, i just saw your message! i was out at 4 on Friday. yeah you're a cool guy! i actually just got out of a long term relationship in November and I'm not really feeling up to that. I'm focusing a lot on myself and my daughter right now but you're a nice guy and thank you for the offer! But it's always nice talking to you when i see ya!”

Im not going to wait around but to me this isn’t a hard no? Or it is and shes just being very polite about it. I do respect a girl that doesn’t just get right back out to fucking after a long term relationship though.

I essentially replied that i too have experienced getting out of a long term relationship and few years back and its nice talking to her as well.
