Greetings, Abby My final year of college is coming to an end. I’ve liked this girl since my sophomore year. Regretfully, things didn’t work out. She clarified that she disliked romance when I asked if we could spend some time together alone.
But in the end, we became friends. But I’ve observed that we don’t get together as much as we used to, although I typically put in the effort. I find it bothersome because we get along well and spend a lot of time together when we do hang together. We’ve exchanged personal tales and had fruitful discussions.
I promised to leave the initiative with her the last time we were together, and I asked her to let me know when she wanted to see me again. Two months have passed since then, and I have a hunch she won’t ask me. It truly depresses me.
Should I write her a note wishing her well but expressing my disappointment if she doesn’t get in touch by the end of the semester? Or ought I to ask if I can see her again before I go? (After graduation, I doubt I’ll see her again.) This would be a betrayal of my promise to let her make the decision, but I don’t want to feel bad about it. — INDIANALY SMITTEN
Greetings, Simone This young lady has been attempting to gently disappoint you, based on what you have stated, but her message has not been understood. She has no interest in falling in love with you. If you asked to see her again, what do you think you would achieve? As an objective observer, it might be difficult for you and awkward for her. It might be a better approach to end this chapter of your life if you send her a text message wishing her well.
