because what else is newand coupling that with his somewhat already-crippling fear of girls he likes, the result is he isn't too convinced.Gwen had made herself pretty clear. So clear, that he almost suspected someone had stolen her phone on that reply.

He hadn't even been able to ask her out when everything was copasetic. Asking for her back when she was intent to remind him he was pond scum hadn't made it easier.
He'd never, ever blame Gwen or hold her feelings against her. He just couldn't help his own negative ones from reinforcing that maybe George Stacy had been correct...]

Thanks.

Next time, he'll be there for her. Even if it's just as a friend.]
