Should I keep waiting for her?

After waiting a month after first agreeing to a date then giving a "my life is complicated" response I asked this girl if she cleared things up. She explained that this guy she was with wanted to take a break and that she doesn't want to get close to me only to hurt me if the other guy comes around; he was a friend so she doesn't want to hurt him either. I tried to get an upfront rejection from her but she stalled with "I don't know". She said all she can give me is a "not right now". Even when I asked her if I should move on she said "maybe, but i don't really know".





I dropped it and told her we should "just be friends" but in a manner that suggested we should part ways. But she still catches up with me after class everyday to talk with me on our way to our dorms. Also we got together outside of class to study together too (she even woke up really early to meet when I couldn't stay up the previous night). I decided to test the waters again today and asked if she wanted to just hang out over spring break and she agreed...





I'm really lost as to what she thinks of me.should I hang on and keep pursuing (3rd times the charm?) or drop it and forget her (which might be hard with her still trying to talk to me).



hmm... this is hard because you really can't tell what she wants. From what you wrote though it looks like she's just leading you on. She's obviously still hooked on her ex, so if i were you i'd move on to a girl who's into you as much as your into her. Because this girl seems like she's just using you for her convenience. Maybe if you tell her how you feel and that you need to move on, she won't keep trying to talk to you. idk. this is a tough situation!


hope this helps! :)




"just be friends", lol, seriously, just be her friends and be there for her.... cause everyone needs friends and who know maybe someday it will become more than that!




I couldn't even get through the first sentence you wrote before I gave up on the way way way over thought novel you just wrote.





STOP WAITING!





Find someone who likes you for you.




Just try it, what do you have to loose at this point besides your sanity?
