Okay so this all took place my senior year of high school. I had just recently broken up with my girlfriend and I started talking to this one girl, I'll call her Sarah. We talked while I was still dating my girlfriend but after the breakup things became different. Talking led to flirting and then emails being exchanged and text messaging.
So the thing is Sarah is an anti-social/shy girl. Very anti-social. On
of those girls that hates being the center of attention and likes going unnoticed. She is always silent in class and rarely talks to anyone unless one of her few close friends are in there. So it was unusual that she started talking/flirting with me. This whole talking, emailing, texting went on for about a month and then everyone began telling me to ask her out on a date. I was unsure because she had not told anyone that she liked me and even when her close friends asked her, she would avoid the question. But eventually they convinced me to ask her. So I asked her to a school dance. She said yes. So the talking and flirting continued and then the day of the dance she texted me and said she didn't want to go to the dance because we hated dances. Which was true. We both talked about how we hated school dances.
Sarah then said that we could hang out over the week break instead. I said sure. Over the break I ask her twice to hang out and twice she replies she can't becaus she is busy/clean the house and apologizes because she told me we could hang out. So being discouraged I stopped talking to her for the rest of the break. Now we come back to school and she is distant to me. Barely says anything to me. A mutual friend told me that she saw Sarah and asked what was going on between is and Sarah replied, "nothing." and mentioned liking some other boy. So I was kind of like WTF? So 2 months go by with barely any communication between us and then one day I say "hi" to her which seemed to cause some chain reaction because she started intiating contact by texting or email.
Now we're back to where we started originally. Talking/flirting and what not. So to kind of wrap this up, long story short we flirt and text for again about 2 months then during our senior trip she hung out with the guy who she said she liked earlier and never once talked to me. So being mad/sad/jealous and whatever else I stopped talking to her. So we graduate and go off to college. Year goes by and I run into her over the summer and she emails me saying she was happy to see me and wants to hang out with me. But I'm hesitant because I don't want the same thing that happened in high school to happen again.
Okay so long story but hoping for some thoughts/advice about what you guys think. Thanks in advance.
