Known this girl for 3 years now with a lot happening in the middle.
We first began as friends as we are from the same class. I was going through a breakup at that time, & slowly I became attached to her. We texted through nights & she seemed to be attracted to me, initiated contact, came over to me in class for talking, dropping IOIs, etc. However, I waited too long to escalate & this continued for 9 months, & her attraction was dying, she started calling me a friend & brother which she never did before. I realized that I have to walk away, & so I did. She asked me multiple times if something was wrong, I told her I was busy, so she gave up.
I then went for my internship, & came back after a year. After I came back I was friendly & casual with her. Then I found her dropping IOIs & hints that she likes me. I took them as positive, & playfully flirted with her. She reciprocated, but sometimes acted bitchy & hard to get. So, I decided to ask her out. But when I said that I like her, she was taken aback & seemed to be in complete shock as if she didn't see it coming. She said that she only saw me as a friend & had no such feelings. I was not convinced, & told her to let me know if she had something for me. She asked me back saying what would I do knowing about it. I just told her that it would make me feel good, & walked away.
After a few days her confronted me saying that she is very upset because she lost a friend. It's been over two weeks that I have not contacted her, & have not heard from her either. Is it sort of a **** test to see If I really want her? How do I get her back?
