cut to the chase or see what happens?

hi,
looking for a bit of advice on a situation ive got myself into. Went out with a girl a couple of months back, great girl really liked her but things didnt work out at the time so we stopped seeing eachother. Anyway, we might bump into eachother once/twice a week or once a fortnight or whatever through a common interest. There does be a bit of chat etc and then we go about our business. So about a month ago she texts me and asks if i would pick something up for her, bear in mind that she could get this herself if she wanted to, she doesnt drive but has friends that do. so i was reluctant but i got it and decided that i wouldnt get again if asked.

so a few days ago i was asked to pick the thing up again and the text was kind of strange, different to what she'd usually send but maybe its just me reading into it too much (bear in mind that i did kind of give her the cold shoulder earlier in the day).
so i said id get it even though i previously decided i wouldnt do it again. what im not sure of is, is there something in it, is she still interested or am i just being walked on here.

what im asking is, and i know its hard to give advice based on what ive said above, do i just get it, give it to her, not say anything and see if anything comes of it or do i put the foot down now and say that this isnt on and wont be happenning again (i know i probably should just have said no when she asked me...). Basically, i still like the girl and if there was going to be something more then id consider it but if not i dont want to be used or be seen as a friend.

cheers

If you want to get the item for her, well then get it....if you don't want to, don't get it for her. Don't do it just because you think you're going to get something out of it. You'll end up kicking yourself!

Very ominous, a text a thing, makes the advicce harder to give.

Do it once more, if it isn't too much hassle, and then the next time she texts, say you can't. If she's interesteed in you for more than your car, then she might come up with a better way of seeing you, like asking you out.

Do it cos you are her friend and then next time you see her out ask her out for a coffee and a chat and see if she is intrested in starting a new relationship with you.

Sounds like you are interested in rekindling this relationship. Just remember, being her skivvy is not going to make you more appealing to her - in fact the opposite.

If you want to do this message for her out of the goodness of your heart then go for it. But, if you are interested in something more with her then I suggest you don't do what ever it is she wants you to do - put down some boundaries. She will respect you all the more for it and it will make her even more interested.

Its too hard to give advice without knowing
A: What the thing she wanted you to get her was, and
B: How rude or not her "strange" text was

The text wasnt rude or anything, just a bit long and drawn out, seemed as if she noticed that i wasnt all that friendly earlier in the day and maybe she was checking or something. The item isnt anything out of the ordinary just an everyday thing really.

im moving towards not getting it to be honest, dont know if its the right or wrong thing to do but it seems its the way to go after thinking about it but im not 100%. Yes im still interested but dont in any way want to be used,
