I guess I didn't think out my username well since I'm not in highschool any more. :p

 

Instead of making a huge post I'll keep it brief, but if anyone has any questions just post.

 

Basically, I'm a good friend with a girl from university. I've been interested in her for a while, and we had a long talk last Sunday about us. She said she hasn't started dating yet because she has really bad depression/anxiety issues + stress and family issues, and doesn't think a serious relationship would be good for her atm. She said a LOT of sweet things about me though, and it seemed like she gave mixed signals imo.

 

My buddy's also her friend, and she talked to him and kept it very vague (basically said that she hopes we can all be friends still and that no one's mad at her). She said "I think he got the message but I had to talk to him in person". She didn't want to tell him what we talked about, and I haven't told him since her stuff is kind of personal.

 

She's a real sweetheart and one of the most kind-hearted girls I've known. I don't want to hurt her, but it's pretty damn painful being good friends, getting lunch together everyday and driving her home etc while having feelings for her.

 

I don't have much experience with this, what do I do? It hurts, but I don't want to be "that guy" who brings up stuff over and over.

As hard as it may be, respect her decision and do not pressurise her.

I'm trying to. It's obvious she loves being a good friend of mine, and we hang out more than any of her girlfriends.

 

But I'm not sure if it would be better to just take a break from hanging out with her or not. This is kind of affecting my marks and stress levels a bit.

 

I wanted to tell her this but I have the exact same thing she does and am on meds (she didn't say this but by how she was talking she might be too). I understand where she's coming from, and I said that I did but she thinks I'm just being sweet and trying to understand.
