Thats a different context. Maggie said she had determined ealry on she didn't want to see him but didn't tell him that. Probably to avoid drama
You are talking about girls that want to continue seeing the guy in the interest of possibly (I guess through some divine will or sick desperation) developing feelings. Thats different.
Although, it will look the same to the person on the receiving end.

Where does that leave the large number of women on GC who feel that sparks develop over time and who like to continue dating someone they're not really into at first (and I don't mean you, maggieaxid)? If a woman tries to "develop" sparks with a guy and it never happens, you'd just say she was leading him on the whole time, which is silly.
I think that the concept of "leading someone on" is bullshit, unless someone is blatantly lying to you about where the relationship is headed. Each person should do what she wants and hang out with someone if she feels like it -- if a guy reads more into her behavior than she intends, that's his problem, not hers.
