Friend from my past

    A few weeks ago, I met someone from my past that I always had a thing for and we ended up getting together for a weekend. She's working in another part of the country at the moment.

    She mentioned that she was bad at relationships, and I'm not really looking for one either, but I can't stop thinking about her.

    She was always a bit quick to push people away when I knew her before, so I don't want to come on too strong. I'm not one for Facebook or text chats, but it seems like the only outlet I have to maintain an open line of communication with her.

    Should I just chat to her, or leave it be? I'm pretty lonely at the moment so I don't want to seem too desperate. All I want is someone to spent some time with and see how it works out.

    I'm working on some issues at the moment as a result of bullying which makes me feel really insecure. This girl arranged to meet me and wanted to be with me, but I keep thinking she wouldn't be interested in me.

    I think you're overthinking this love. You don't need to act too full on and if you don't act in a full on fashion then it can't possibly be misconstrued as being too intense either. Gently open the lines of communication and keep in touch. The fact that she wanted to meet with you and spend an entire weekend with you bodes very well so why not get in touch, chat for a while, test the water and maybe suggest another meet up. Something like bullying is of course going to knock your confidence but those bullies are thankfully not in control of this situation, you are. And you owe it to yourself to give it your best shot.
