    Going unreg, prefer the anonymity..

    Basically I've posted on here previously about a girl that I've liked and been with who got back with her boyfriend about a year ago. Well, recently (weeks ago) they've split up and a few days we got chatting and eventually kissed. As far as I know I don't think they're getting back together as it was a bad breakup

    I thought 'happy days - I could make a go at this' but at the same time was thinking 'hold on I've been here before and it doesn't feel the same' (by that I mean when we were with each other before we basically talked through the night, woke up the next day and text each other days on end. She told me that she'd liked me for ages but got back with her bf over a few things - rather not get into it. We were on great terms anyways inbetween then and now). I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm not sure if she's interested or not.

    It's a pretty minor and pathetic question I guess considering some of the real personal issues on this board but what are my options? I text her a few days back and she replied and said she'd give me a text the next day but never happened so I gave her another text a couple of days after but no reply.

    Do I just give her space and wait... possibly passing up an opportunity? Or try talk to her.. or ask her if she wants to meet up the weekend? My head is saying just leave it and she'll come back if she wants to talk but then my heart is saying "well what if you pass up this chance again".

    Grab the bull by the horns and declare your intentions. You won't be one tap worse off by getting an official rejection if that's what she's feeling. You can at least get on with your life then...

    Who knows, though. Maybe she'll surprise you.

    Agree with above post - if it's not too awkward then spill your guts out to the girl and then you can't look back and regret keeping your feelings bottled up. What would be even worse for you is if she didn't get back with the ex, but got with a new guy - who isn't you. Take a chance and meet her for a cuppa.

    Can't be bothered logging out but I'm the original poster, I'm fairly sure nobody knows me on here anyways..

    I guess the only thing I'm afraid is making a fool of myself and ruining our friendship. That said all throughout our friendship I wished it was me she was going out with so..

    Guess it's better to regret doing than not doing. Cheers for the above.

    For your name, that's very decisive. I agree too.
