So, I'm back. Same girl again...to make things short, I took the advice some of you guys gave me (plus, I found one of my old posts that I left as advice for someone about 2 years ago). I started slipping away from her. It was sort of hard at first, considering that the only reason I really wanted to be there was mostly when the other guys were around her.
Just to recap...shortly after we went out she became very ill and was hospitalized for well over a week. I went to visit her a few times with a friend of ours, she was very happy to see us and was being very cheerful despite her condition, which really impressed me. Also, before this happened, we were going to go out for lunch, but she cancelled, said she wants to move it for another day, and to this day we haven't talked about it. We still hung out a few times in between classes.
Back to the present...
A few days ago, my buddy brought his girl to school with him. She sat in on one of our classes, and they went to get some food. I walked them there, but since I wasn't going to order anything, I left and went to the gym for well over an hour and had a wicked workout. My buddy was surprised I didn't stay with them because he knows I like this girl, especially because I used to try to be around her as often as possible until I realized that I was making myself way too available for her, so I decided to distance myself from her when possible. It started working and she started talking to me on IM now...instead of having it the other way around, but I'm still keeping at it. I used to walk her out and wait with her until her ride showed up, now I just walk her out and say goodbye for the day.
It's no secret. I like her, and she knows it. She's told me she likes me too, but I kept getting sort of mixed signals from her every day, so maybe bailing out for now is the best option. If she wants me, she can chase me. I have a date with another girl this weekend, and once again I'm going to let her subtly find out after.
