If a girl says she likes you then says she was kidding does she like you or not?

If a girl says she likes you then says she was kidding does she like you or not?

That's a difficult one, I'm a girl and once are twice I've told a guy i liked him and then said i didn't. The reason for me is that i was afraid he didn't like me back. But with some girls there just not that nice and they'll do that to guys. I once had a girl in my grade that would ask out every loser, sorry if that offended any one, and then five minutes later she would dump them. If you think she's not lying the go for it and ask her out. if you think she is then play it by ear if her friends can be trusted then ask them. but for now just lay low and don't ask her friends tons of questions. it kind of bothers girls, are atleast it's always bothered me.
