So me and my friend Abbie have been friends for 15 years. She like a sister to me we practically grew up together. Recently she told me that she had feelings for me and she wanted to have sex. I said no because we're just friends but now she not responding to my texts
Is this normal
You're normal and I think your doing just fine. She's being a selfish, butthurt little bitch. Unfortunately, a lot of people act like assholes after they've been rejected, because of whatever reason. Maybe she's resentful, angry, embarrassed or ashamed, regardless you're not at or responsible for her feelings or her reaction. You are not the one at fault here! You're probably better off without her anyway.
Its normal. Right now she's dealing with rejection and all the confusing emotions that come with it, because she probably assumed you'd say yes.
No worries though, being honest with yourself and her was the right thing to do. Just send her text saying you'll always be there for her. After that, just give her space.
Lastly, please do not think friendships have a "next level", as another user suggested. Friendships are not stepping-stones into romance.
She probably worked up a lot of courage to ask you, spent ages looking for signs that you might be interested, etc. Now she's fallen flat on her face. If you're a good friend, you'll be sympathetic to this and try to show her it won't affect the friendship.
Did you want to have sex with her? Because if you did you should've said yes
Seems she has grown up more than you she wants to take your friendship to the next level she is going to leave you behind
It really is better that she came forth with her true feelings. Otherwise her friendship would be dishonest. Now it is up to her if she can be your friend or really only thinks of you in a sexualized way
imagine how much courage that chick had to muster up to tell you that. Good on her for being that brave. Good on you for being honest with her. She will be angry at you because she feels confused now but don't let this bump affect your friendship. Show her that nothing has changed and let her deal with the feeling of rejection. She will eventually decide what she wants to do from there and you should respect whatever decision it is she makes.
