I dont have an answer but I do have a question. I have a female friend that I am attracted to and have been for many years. We talk about once a week and text each other daily. I have asked her about dating me and at one point she was for it(I lived 400 miles from her and was in the middle of a divorce) and now she has told me no because it will ruin our friendship. I dont buy that but it is her decision and I respect that. I am soon moving very close to her for reasons that have nothing to with her but I must admit that being closer to her is an added benefit, but I am not sure that she feels the same way. I am very confused because I get mixed signals from her and now she seems to be avoiding my calls and texts.We still talk but not as often, yet when I visit her I catch her checking me out and she seems to a little nervous around me,(clearing her throat and sometimes stumbling over her words and avoiding looking me directly in my eyes sometimes and then looking at me when she thinks I am not looking etc)I dont know what to think, all I know is that she was my girl friend for a while when I was sixteen and I had not seen her between the ages of 18 to 42,but we reconnected and have been talking and texting since.I have often thought of leaving her alone entirely lately because I can not figure out what is going on with her and I feel like I am bothereing her sometimes.She is a very good friend who I love and she knows this yet she still talks to me and even though she has told me that she does not have any desire to be romantically involved with me I keep getting mixed signals, especially when Im around her ,any help?
Can't have a close female friend without wanting them.
