Hello everyone! I need your help please. I texted her that I fell in love with her for nearly two years. She said nothing since she got divorced and has two kids. I bought a few roses for her two weeks ago since her beautiful dog passed away. She texted me that it was a very thoughtful gift. I did take care of her beautiful dog and duties while she went away.. We texted each other positively. One week after her beautiful dog passed away, I did text her to tell her 'HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY"..Then I again texted her that I miss her terribly and could not sleep for a few days. I did ask her to answer me back anytime. She suddenly texted me back, "I am well. I was away all weekend. I will keep in touch. no worries. Get some rest," My love her is pain..Should I leave her alone until she texts me back again? Any thoughts?[/b]

You are coming on way too strong with someone who is either not ready to date or not interested in you as more than just a friend.

 

How can you be in love with someone you're not dating? It's pretty strong language and would scare anyone

Posted

Well she is in no doubt of your interest anyway,

 

 

yes not much more you can do, I would leave it, the ball is in her court as they say,

 

 

if the relationship is to go anywhere, she has to make the next move,

 

 

It is fascinating too the old adage " Can a man and woman ever really be just friends", it is a universal issue worldwide, boy/girl friendship, one side at least always wants more,

 

 

it is equally fascinating but also frustrating,

 

 

there is a whole area there, the whole psychology of it.

You did everything wrong here. In no particular order:

 

1. Never tell somebody you are not in a romantic relationship with that you love them. It comes out of left field. It is unwelcome. It also telegraphs that you don't understand social norms.

 

2. The 1st time you say ILY should not be by text. It's a declaration that requires eye contact & tone of voice. Thinking that you can build or maintain intimacy over the phone is a mistake.

 

3. Long stemmed red roses are not associated with a death. You went overboard with that flower. You would have been better served sending a nice plant or mixed bouquet in memory of her beloved dog.

 

 

You are somebody she relied on for pet care. Other then your startling declaration there is nothing to indicate that you are anything more then a good friend. Have you ever been on an actual date with this woman? If not you should have started by asking her to dinner & building from there.
