Mistake?

Yo first post here and just looking for a bit of advice on a scenario.

I have been talking to a certain girl for a while and everything’s been going great, we've kissed but not gone further, then again i haven’t been pushing it. Now what happened a week ago was that she ended up sending me an email telling me how much she liked me blablabla, i ignored it for a couple of days not sure how to respond to it... in the end i just said "i know."
On the weekend which was a couple of days after i send the orginal reply i got a bit intoxicated and send off another one in which said

Hey XXXX, just been thinking about you.

your a nice girl cool girl but right now i want to focus on my studies and other commitments that i have made this year. i think its best if you and me for the moment just stayed friends.

this is how i feel, right now i got other priorities but the question is have i lost this one? as i wouldn't mind pursuing the option of seeing each other at a later date, at the moment i just have several other things going on that take precedence

If you really like her , you might have wanted to tell her this in person or on the phone, just not by a text message. It sounds more like an excuse now. but it doesn´t have to be too late. Call her in a while and ask how she is doing or ask her out on a coffee. Tell her the thruth. That you really ment what you said, that you have other commitments now, but that she is really important to you and you don´t want to lose contact with her. Treat others like you would want to be treated yourself. Good luck!

And don't ever break up with someone or anything remotely close to that via text message-it's cowardly and tactless. Man up and tell her face to face, or at the very least, over the phone itself.

I was planning on calling in a week or two but are you sayin i should be telling her that? i don't know, seems out of character coming from me and a tad soft.

Motownmack, does it really sound that bad?

Thanks for the reply guys, appreciate it
