What are the chances

[HuntersDog]

Hey, so i recently met this woman in a caffe. She kept giving me the eyes from across the room and I decided to introduce myself. We had a great conversation and decided to hang out. She told me she was not the best at making plans and I should just give her a call any day after 6 when she is usually available. A few days later I called her but she was busy. I figured I didn't care to play phone tag with some one who is not interested in actualy making plans and decided to just let it go. A few days later she called me to see what I was up to and I was free so we hung out. We had a great conversation and I felt we had a great connection. In fact it had been a long while since I had actualy met someone I could really dig in this way. I took her to a secret path I knew and we walked through the woods. I kissed her. She seemed reserved but did not resist. We kissed for a minute or two and carried on our way. I tried to hold her hand and she said she was not sure she could hold anybodies hand right now. This made sense since whe had earlier disclosed that she had just gotten out of a very serious relationship. She had also told me she was very busy in her life right now and is really trying to figure some serious questions out. We walked to our cars and said goodnight. As I drove away I was not sure really if she was into me or not or if she maybe just wasn't ready to date. Thirty minutes later she texted me saying she had a great time and she was sorry she was not able to let go but she just wanted to thank me. I responded the next day saying not to worry that i had a good time as well. About a week passed and I texted her seeing if she was free that evening (since it was clear she would not make plans in advance). She was busy but "Wants to hang out soon and will keep in touch". About a week and a half passed and I thought I would give it another shot. She told me she was busy for the rest of the week but things should clear up early the following week so I should try her then. So I texted her the next week and she responded saying "Our friendship started at a wierd time. I have been very busy and someone has been taking a lot of my time, but I will have time to hang out in the next few days" Unsure of what why she was using terms like "our friendship" and saying someone has been taking her time I asked (and maybe this is where I ****ed up) if she was trying to say she was seeing someone because "to be clear I am asking you on a date" She said that she not seeing someone and is "not necessarily into dating any one right now" but would like to hang out as friends. I told her that if she hung out with me it was at her own risk of ending up on a date. She said "Well then I guess we won't hang out until I am ready to go on a date with you." I did not respond. I figured I would drop the whole thing and maybe one day she might change her mind. So over two weeks pass and I run into her at a concert. She approaches me and gives me a hug. We talk for about thirty minutes and things are reshreshingly real and it is clear that we get along very well with each other. She is going through a lot right now and I figure there is a chance that she was being honest when she said she is not in the best place to date. At the end of the night I approach her and tell her that I know things are difficult right now (as she disclosed earlier in the night) but if the tides should change to give me a call. She then told me she got a new phone and doesn't have my number any more. I figured her saying she didn't have my number any more was clearly a sign that she wanted to at least have it. So I text her a few days later saying it was refreshing to be able to just be real when we ran into each other and to not be a stranger. She responded saying it was great to see me and she was sure we will run into eachother again. I am confused. On one hand I am just dropping the whole thing, but on the other hand I am wondering how I should play this whole thing if I run into her again (it's a small town). Is she just not intersted, or is it just poor timing in life. I really feel a strong connection with this person but I can't tell if she is just trying to let me down gently or if she is being honest about her situation. If she is being honest I want to keep an attraction going, but I don't want to feel like some chump who is being strung along or just not getting the hint. A part of me wants to just ignore her when I see her, but if she is being honest then thats not the best plan. Any thoughts?
