The backstory is the same as any other, I was given the 'I like you, but not in that way...'. We'd been getting personal and cosey up to that point before I went all nice guy lovey dovey (my mistake, I let my composure drop). When we had that awkward conversation, I played it off letting her know I knew where I stood and let it go. NC started then although she'd texted me sometimes and I'd reply before letting the conversation go. Online, she's liked photoes I've posted of me doing things. We were still on good terms when we bumped into each other.

 

This NC was great for me as she was basically the catalyst as I turned my life around. Healthy eating kicked in and I really started hammering at the gym; the result being I started looking good - my abs were showing, veins along my arms and a good figure as a few girls started pointing out. I through myself at my studies to improve my grades and that is now starting to show too. I got medication for my skin, started dressing sharper and looking after my hygeine. As you can see, I really set standards for myself once. I filled my time I'd think about woman with hobbies etc. Funnily enough, where ever I went, I started raising eye brows and woman undressing me with their eyes.

 

All of this kicked up my confidence and obviously I made use of it all. I'd pull woman and get a few numbers yet I'd never call; not because I was being a jerk but because I'd set my goals of not letting myself think about woman until I'd reach my goals by the end of the year. It's hard.

 

One day walking home at university, guess who popped out of nowhere. I'd looked around before and Miss LJBF had definitely hurried to catch up to me as I'd not seen her elsewhere. NC does wonders and we were back to how we were before, all bubbly with each other, smiling and so comfortable. When we hugged a few times, it was the lingering type and she held on for a good minute or so longer. Now here is where I went stupid; I asked if she was up to much today/ weekend and she said nothing really and asked me to which I replied the same. I then thought why not and asked if she was keen to grab a bite. This got me 'umms, uhhs' and when I suggested days, a straight up I am so behind on study. We both study medicine so it's understandable the load and dedication we've got to maintain.

 

But thats that as I've learnt from the past. If she'd had a complete 180, she would of found the time would she not have? Furthermore I think it is in MY best interested that I continue NC and let her be right? I feel we're the ones if at a party with liquid confidence, things would be different but at this moment, it stands as it stands.

 

Anyone got any tips for me to stop her lingering in my mind?

I think you can comfort yourself with the knowledge that doctors are notoriously bad spellers.

Why not call one of the other girls that gave you her number and pursue someone else.
