I met her first week in university. We were both early to a class, first thing I did was ask her number. Turned out she had a boyfriend already. We studied together for every assignment and exam. Near the end of the year she broke up with her boyfriend and was in tears in every class and leaning on my shoulder all the time. Anyways, I didn't want to be her rebound guy so I never really responded to her advances (besides polite acknowledgement).
The first week into a new university year she told me she was going away to study university overseas for the next 4 years. I was really disappointed in losing a friend I've spent so much time with and she seemed to really miss me so we had a really long hug.
Half a year later, she returned to visit for a week or two. She invited me to her birthday party at a club. I don't know whether by design or accident, only her, her friend, me, my friend showed up. We danced and drank a lot and I ended up making out with her. (My first kiss!) When we were going home she asked me and my friend to share a cab with her and her friend (she booked a hotel room nearby). Half way through my friend pointed at a night bus that would take us home (which comes every one or two hours), and (I think I was drunk at the time) I followed my friend out of the cab to take the bus home.
The next day I had a really AFC moment and I texted her saying I really enjoyed the kiss and asked if she will be my girlfriend. She said she didn't mind. However, I changed my mind because I realised a long distance relationship wasn't going to work out and she agreed.
She came back every few months, but we just hung out (no physical contact except hugs). I started and ended a 2 year relationship until a year ago during this period.
The last time she came back, we hung out once. I asked to meet her again before she left, but she didn't reply for a whole week. I called her on it, and she told me she was busy and told me to go see someone I'm interested in. A week or two later, I had another really AFC moment and I told her I was sorry if I looked like I wanted to go out with her other than as a friend, since she was still studying she wouldn't have time for a relationship. She replied asking what happened and what turned sour between us; I replied everything is okay, she seemed relieved and told me she'd talk to me soon. (btw I did exactly what she said and saw other people I thought I would be interested in)
She didn't contact me for another 4 months (I didn't contact her either), and when she did she blamed the internet wasn't working. (She had a mobile phone! Could've text me if she really wanted to.) She said she was doing her exams and when she finished she'd be back for good. I was kind of pissed with her not contacting me for months, and I hadn't really forgiven her for last time when she didn't reply to me for a week, so I just wished her good luck with her exams. A few days later she sent me another text saying she gets back we can see each other more than twice every few months… I had yet another AFC moment and told her we definitely can.
So she's returned, and posted heaps of her photos going out. After two weeks she still hasn't texted/called me. I sent her a text asking how she was, and she said she was good and bla bla bla, but never a mention of giving me her new number or asking me to meet up. I looked at her FB and one of her photos was a picture of two tickets, and tagged a guy along with it. So I told her I facebook-stalked the guy a bit thinks he is like good match for her (and listed a bunch of reasons) and asked her when they were going to set a second date. She stopped replying to me.
After a day or two, I sent her a message asking why she bothered telling me me she wanted to meet with me after 4 months of not contacting me and then continue not contacting me when she got back.
The next day...
While I'm typing this, in fact, she sent me a text with her new number, and on FB sent me a message explaining he was just a friend and it wasn't a date and saying she did want to meet with me.
I had just written her off and thought I should post on this forum my love life and ask how I can change my ways, but I've just changed this post to ask what I should be doing next.
If I could, I would keep her. It's rare enough I've known a girl for so long without getting rid of her (never, in fact). Her actions in previous months are symptomatic of someone disinterested, however.
What should I be doing?
