Hello,
About a year ago I met a girl on my college’s incoming freshman Facebook page. Even though she lived far away, we talked almost every night and developed a pretty close friendship. That lasted about a month, and then things got more complicated.
She had been a little on the flirtacious side with me for the past few weeks, and I took it as a sign that she liked me, which was good because I liked her too. The problem came when she told me she was going on a date with another guy at her school. Normally, I wouldn’t be offended by this since we weren’t official, but given her recent behaviour I felt that I had been led on, especially since this date had apparently been planned weeks in advance. I felt like she was hedging her bets with me — what would she do with me if she decided she liked this guy more? When I brought this up to her, we had an argument during which she accused me of being overbearing, and that put an end to our conversations and our friendship.
Since that time we’ve rarely talked and have had one other argument. When she does talk to me she typically responds to me with staccato, one-word phrases. My question is, do you think that I can ever salvage what I had with her? She has a boyfriend at the moment, so I wouldn’t want to interfere with that, but if she becomes available again, what if anything can I do to win her back?
