I was seeing this girl I go to school with until she broke it off. She said things were too complicated for her to start anything, and she was having trouble cutting ties with her ex. She said she still had strong feelings for me though and wanted to remain friends, but would respect my decision and back off if I didn't want to talk to her anymore.
I agreed to stay friends but it hasn't really worked. We see each other a lot in school and I can't figure out if it's me generating the tension, her, or both of us. Last Saturday (a few days after the conversation) we saw each other in the library and playfully flirted like when we had first met (the playful flirting kind of faded later) but then abruptly stopped and we split ways and haven't talked since.
We've seen each other plenty, but all it will be is a head nod or something along the lines. It's upsetting that she hasn't seemed to make any effort to talk to me, but then again nor have I to her.
Today we were walking by each other in a hall that was close to empty and it was real awkward. I finally broke the ice and asked how she was doing and she replied with "What? I'm ok. Why, whatsup, whats going on, is there something up? How are you, how are you feeling?". Needless to say it didn't help anything.
So now here it is. I know what I should do but it's killing me slowly doing it. I connected with her so much more than I have with anyone in a long time and there's a part of me that doesn't want to let go, but in a way I don't have a choice. I'm worried that she doesn't want anything to do with me anymore either, which hurts even more.
