There are plenty of fish in the sea and one big problem is that you were friends at firts which is what might make it impossible bacause once you are a friend, then nothing will work for you

I think this girl just wants to be friends with you. She knows exactly how you feel about her and this is probably the reason she doesn't like to be alone with you because she doesn't want to be in the situation where she has to let you down again. She obviously wants to be friends with you and this is why she still txts you. I suggest that you don't ask her again as she has made her feelings clear. If in time she feels that she does like you leave to her to make the move. Maybe if you stop txting her and wait for her to txt you she will start to miss the attention and realise that she does like you. Play a little hard to get, it might work. Good luck

I think she has probably realised you're trying to get closer to her and that's why she avoids situations when you're alone together. That said she continues to text you so that you'll flirt back with her because it makes her feel good. My advice to you would be to play it very cool. I think you could get hurt otherwise. Don't stick your neck out until you are certain of her feelings because you could end up losing the friendship. What ever you do don't let her use you as an ego boost you are worth more. I'm sorry if that's not what you wanted to hear but i thought it best to be brutally honest. Best of luck, if it doesn't go your way then it sounds like it's her loss. x
