A male Australia age 36-40, anonymous writes:

i let slip to a close girl friend i liked her n found she liked me too...

we weren't 'officially' going out but things were really good for a couple weeks or so until after one day i saw her she TXTd me she wasnt ready for a relationship yet and needs to sort out her own life a bit (parents split about 4 months ago and failing sum subjects at school were the reasons). maybe later...

i took this really hard because she means an awful lot to me and everything seemed so right

we've agreed to go back to being friends but she cant guarantee anything in the future

but she feels distant (more so than when we were just friends initially)

and i'm not sure what to make of it. this only happened mid last week. should i give her a lil time b4 the friendship atleast can get back as much as normal.

and should i wait for her to find out if there can be anything more, i dont think i could get over her for a long time n would be willing to wait...?

thnx(sry if this is longer than it shuld be)

A female reader, sunnyside United States +, writes (30 April 2007):

This is a very hard situation, but it sounds like you're a strong-willed character and are willing to do anything to have her in your life. Since she wants some time, give it to her. Both of you know that you deeply care for each other, and a little time won't destroy that. You don't have to completely avoid her, but let her breath to sort our her life. Maybe once in a while, give her a call and see how she's doing, but don't talk about you guys...keep it casual. When the time is right, she will come back to you if it's meant to be. You just have to be strong and understand it from her perspective.
