We met while working holiday jobs at the local shopping centre and as typical was the ensuing staring, flirting etc etc. I made my move but she was busy so I left it. At that stage I was not after anything and obviously knew the signs of uninterest. Over the of the last few months though we have been getting closer and closer. I let it be although I kept my flirting up. On the side I convinced myself that she was not right for me - much younger etc. Yet every now and then I'd get pockets of interest showing as if she'd be letting her walls down - come to think of it, she is rather aloof at least until you REALLY get to know her of which I don't think I have. Part between us still seems like formalities. I've been told off for never replying to her when she always answers instantly. When I've mentioned a new love interest our conversations seem to dissipate. When I've teasingly questioned her about then not reply etc, she'll bite back telling me how I should know she loves me.

 

I guess my feelings are starting to creep in. We were at a local function the other day and people were mentioning how cute we looked together. On the other hand she did not take it well me flirting and talking to other female co-workers (never has). She made sure that she was within the proximity of where I was. Furthermore when I left earlier she blew up as I was going to take her home - seeing me in the carpark as she found an alternate way home with another guy, she opted to jump into my car instead when I smiled at her.

 

Come a few days after knowing that she was not feeling too well, I offered her a lift with me to uni (we go to same one) and she agreed most definitely. I think she loves it when I dote on her. Furthermore we were doing that thing where we jokingly plan to do things together - we always talk like that and how we will look after one another if the other needs a favor. During the lift you could tell she was smittened yet when we got to uni and grabbing a coffee, her gaze was always darting around; never in my direction. She did not seem amused when I invited friends (females and males a like) to come join us which they did not. I finally let it be and as typical when we part ways she asks when she will next see me. This always

 

I am starting to worry about my feelings in all honesty as I am not sure where I stand with her. In her phone she has a best male guy friend with hearts to his name (although her family members have the same). Dropping her home from the function I jokingly brought up the topic of her having a boyfriend and she acted awkward trying to avoid the question. Her female friends say she is not looking for a boyfriend and all in all it seems she is single (word on the street and according to facebook).

 

I've been down this road before - it's the take it slow one. It feels like that long push pull, will they won't they thing you see in movies. Some girls I've reaped the rewards for it. Others, it's been a slope to heart break.
