Saylor Cathiea month agoI (20M) have known my friend (21F) for over a year. Early on, I asked her out on a date, but she politely rejected me. Since then, we've become closer friends and share a mutual friend group. For a while, she distanced herself when she was in a situationship with someone else, but after that ended, she started being very friendly with me again. Sometimes, I feel like her attention is hot and cold. When we’re on school breaks and don’t see each other, I’m always the one to reach out to check in. We play video games together late at night, just the two of us, but she also has no problem hanging out one-on-one with other guy friends. I’ve also noticed small things, like how she avoids sharing embarrassing moments around me, even though she tells my other friends. Even though she rejected me in the past, I feel like we’ve both changed since then. I value her as a friend and don’t want to risk ruining our relationship, but I’m not sure if I should try to break the current dynamic.136
