So there is this girl that I knew a while ago. She and I were friends and then one night she was having problems with her boyfriend and I offered to take her out for coffee. We talked for a couple hours then we decided to go back to my place to get some Jack and Cokes. Mind you my intentions were ENTIRELY innocent. I had no expectations from it I was just trying to make her feel better. We start watching late night MTV and as a few hours pass she is totally lying on me. It was one of those perfect moments where time and space mean nothing, what ever was happening in my life went away, all there was, was her and me. Then, at about 4 am, she told me she had to go, I told her I didn't want her to but she left anyway. My only regret from that night was not kissing her. I wanted to talk to her in the weeks after that about what happened just to see what she thought about it but through a series of events each time I tried I couldn't so it stayed a mystery to me.
Now, about 6 months later, she calls me up and asks me to go for coffee. I say sure because I want the chance to finally ask her about that night. We meet up at a Steak and Shake around 11 and end up chit chatting for an hour and I find out that she recently had broken up with her boyfriend. Then I ask her about "the night" and she immediately knows what I'm talking about. She says "I'm sure you probably already know this but I've liked you for a while." And I am floored. I had no idea she felt like that. We talked for another half hour about the situation since she had just broken up with her boyfriend of 2 years and wanted some single time and I was planning on going to film school in 6 months and would be in New York for a year. We decided to continue talking back at her place which was right down the road. We got there and talked about books and our lives for a while and gradually got closer and closer. I told her that I regretted not kissing her that night at my apartment and that I didn't want to regret that again and she said that she didn't think it would hurt anything. So we ended up kissing for a couple hours and we would occasionally stop to talk about things. I never thought that perfect night at my apartment could be recreated but then it was, it was another perfect night with her. I had never felt so complete with a girl before. I never really even cared about any past girlfriends, it was a feeling that I was beginning to think was imaginary and could never be felt for someone until I was with this girl. So we decided that we'd be friends for a while while she got her life figured out and she said she'd call me in a couple days.
About 5 days pass and no call, so I call her and she tells me she'd been sick and working and such and that she was sorry and I was fine with it, I understood. I asked her if she wanted to go to my friend's cabin the next weekend for a party and she said she'd give me a call on friday to let me know if she could. Friday comes around and it's about 8 at night and no call so I called her and left her a message. She calls me back the next day saying that she was too sick to go up, so(since I didn't really want to go to the party anyway) I ask if she'd want me to bring by a movie the next day and we could just hang out at her place and she said she'd give me a call sunday. Sunday comes and no call. Third strike. I don't know what's going on with her. I don't know if she lost interest or if she's afraid I'm going to get too attached, I just don't want to feel like a jerk for calling all the time if she doesn't want to hang out. I don't know, just needed to write it out.
