I think that given what you’ve written me, her message sounds like she does want to end the friendship — which sounds more like a[i] “flirtship” [/i]than a friendship or a relationship. But, that doesn’t mean you have to do anything differently. If you like her, and you want to flirt with her, and she’s going to flirt back with you, then what she really may be trying to say, but can’t, is that she can’t continue to flirt like this in a limbo state. She may have been waiting for you to make a move after years of flirting as friends, and when you didn’t, she became frustrated, and her asking you to “end this” may really be her subconscious way of asking you to end the limbo. 😮
You’re going to have to use your intuition on this one, and if you think there’s more there than she’s admitting, it’s time for you to end the limbo and make a move. A candlelit dinner with a smoldering kiss at the end of the night should do the trick.
And if you get shot down, then you’ll have a clear answer to your own question about whether or not this relationship has a future beyond flirty friends. 😉
