Does she want me back?

[thebigE]

Long story short.. This girl and I were really into each other and got really close for a few months but I started distancing myself from her because I was going through serious anxiety and depression that I didn't open up to her about. She told me she started seeing someone else, and then I told her my situation and I was getting help for it and she cried told me she wished I had told her sooner and that she cared a lot for me and she was worried about me..

 

Fast forward to about a month later, the rebound guy she was seeing was long gone and she reached out to me over text and asked how I was doing, which I told her things were improving every day. She said she was glad and that I pop into her mind a lot. I proceeded to tell her that she too is on my mind a lot and she replied by saying "we should talk more." I asked if she was interested in meeting up for coffee and catching up and she gladly accepted.

 

Met with her yesterday which was a hour and a half drive for me and a 40 min drive for her because it is Christmas break and we are home from college right now.. and we sat and talked over coffee for 3 hours which seemed to fly by, she even said so herself.. She made it clear to me that the brief time she spent with the guy she had been seeing was a "total **** show". At the end I asked her if she wanted to go to a concert with me that is tomorrow and she said she was interested but had to make sure she didn't have prior plans. I texted her later last night giving her more details on the concert and she said she had to work early the next day but would let me know if she could make it this morning because it would be an hour and a half drive for her. We said goodnight, and a half hour later she texted me saying she was listening to the band that I have tickets for and she wants to go and she didn't care if she would be tired for work the next day..

 

Obviously I like this girl a lot.. Am I making it clear to her that I like her? Do I go in for a kiss after the show tomorrow assuming all goes well? I don't want to rush things but at the same time I want to make sure my intentions are known. I'd like her to eventually be my girlfriend.

 

Thanks in advance for your opinions.

Awww! The joys of the beginning of new relationships! I can tell you like this girl and she obviously likes you as well. Have a great time at the concert tomorrow and see where things go. I would say to not go in for a kiss until you are 100% sure she is available emotionally to enter into that relationship with you. You dont want to get your heart caught up too fast and be let down. You also may have to give her some time, she may be a little reluctant since she clearly had feelings for you from the start that had to be put on hold. Have fun!!

What do you mean when you say you started distancing yourself from her? Just ceased contact and just disappeared?

We just didn't talk as much. I was not in a good place mentally and failed to communicate that with her. It was a very rough time. I told her a while back what was going on and she said she wishes i had told her sooner.. I do too.

It's only been a month. What has seriously changed with your anxiety and depression in that time? Do you think you are ready to try or might the same thing happen again and then she might be gone for good.

I have been getting treatment for a month and a half.. The medicine i was taking at the time was messing with my head so bad that I wasn't myself. I was suicidal and the medicine intensified my emotions and made things unbearable. Finally on the right medicine that is helping me tremendously.
