I think I ruined it...

(M20, F20) So, in 2021, I moved to a new school, there I met a girl. She was like an all-round person, good looking, popular, smart, good grades and everything. After talking to her for a while, I confessed my feelings and got friendzoned. In 2022, my high school was finished, and I thought I would never saw her again, because I didn't had her Instagram or anything.

In October 2023, I found her on Instagram, but I was quite unsure if I should send her a request or not.

Then, I sent her a request in April 2024, on her birthday (Yeah, I remember her birthday) I wished her birthday through the Instagram story saying "right on time!?" Pretending that it was an incident . Since then I only had like 4-5 casual chats, not very long ones. She never initiated any of those conversations, but she was pretty responsive, I mean I used to text her on weekends and she would reply quickly, sometimes she replied in hours but not that much. Sometimes she shows interest in talking to even tho she doesn't initiate it.

Two weeks ago, I asked her out she said yes but not this week, maybe some other time. Yesterday I asked her again, she said she have to attend her sister's birthday.

I was already thinking that maybe she's just too nice to say no directly, so I said "Look, it's okay if you aren't interested or not comfortable with going out. Just tell me honestly. You don't have to make excuses" to this she got a little offended saying "Bro, If I have to say no, I will say no". Then like a total immature child, I called her out again saying "Why did you called me bro?" Then she got even more offended saying "I don't like this nonsense".

I was able to turn that into a joke, and later apologised for my impatience. But now I'm just confused about everything. Was she interested in hanging out but was genuinely busy?

It's been 3 weeks since that conversation. I thought she will reach out to me, but she didn't, she never text first.

To be honest, I have no confidence of saying that there's a chance of me being with her. But I asked her out anyway hoping I could just get rejected and moved on, but I'm still stuck in between like I was 3 years ago.
