Well, that's always a good lesson for a young lad to learn. Of course, it also helps if she says "No" the first time, instead of something lame like "Umm...sorry, I can't this weekend", which should be obvious enough that she isn't interested, but when you've had this crush for some time you don't think rationally, and keep hoping that maybe she really was super busy, or she is a little shy and needed some time to think about it, so you keep that hope alive, and you become pretty good friends, which maybe then complicates things because when you keep wanting to hang out, she doesn't want to reject her friend, and she's still single, so maybe she is just holding out for you, maybe. Yea, that sucks when that happens. But in the end, it is more of a relief than anything.
Moral: It is best to get "feelings" out in the open as soon as possible, so that your hopes and dreams get crushed before they get too big.
