"Relationship" problem, really. Maybe my confession is "I might be making a huge deal about this."
I've never really posted something like this before and I ask you guys to please give me your opinions(TL;DR at the end, if you don't want to read this massive thing):
Alright, around mid-December I started talking with this girl called Rachael. I've known about her since around 3 years ago since we went to the same high school, but I never really engaged in conversations with her; I go to a different school right now in Orlando which is 35 minutes from my old one.
Anyway, the point isss.. I've been talking to this girl almost every day since mid December, she lives in my old town which is 35 minutes away, I've gone there every weekend to see her(did some other risky things in order to see her, too), I like her and she likes me also. We've kissed and done almost everything a couple engages in, but we're not going out. I talked to her about going out and she said "Not right now,.." because of supposed anxiety problems she has(she goes to therapy for it, kinda), and probably too because she broke up with her 2-year boyfriend in October. Again, I reeally like her, and she likes me a lot too.. Or so I thought?
Then, last week, she just decides to stop talking to me. I send her texts in the morning around the time where she gets in the bus to go to school and most of the time she doesn't reply. If she did reply, it would be around 2-3 hours later. Then it keeps getting worse. We're sending around 2-4 texts to each other a day; then there comes a pint where she didn't reply at all. Even after I texted her twice. We used to send probably more than 100 texts a day.
At night time I called her, and we talked. I eventually brought up the subject of her ignoring my texts and she said she just likes to fully focus on her artwork from time to time, and that she did this to her ex-boyfriend, too. Okay, I kind of get that. Art is pretty much the one true thing she loves doing. She tells me she'll talk to me more now since she ran out of canvas, and I cutely giggle at it and say "I'm glad, haha". I was, well, glad. I woke up in the mornings excited to talk to her, only to find out that she will keep ignoring me. Even after she said "I'll text you when I wake up in the morning tomorrow" and reconfirmed that she really likes me and wouldn't mind seeing us in a relationship. I got ignored all day, for 2 days. Being ignored is one of the few things I really do hate.
Last night I called her at around 8:30PM after she ignored me all day. The night before that she said she was interested in hanging out; I was super excited. Well, I called her and she ignored my calls. I told her "I need to talk to you." in a text message. She replied "Hold on"; 30 minutes rolled by and I was genuinely pissed. I sent her some sarcastic messages saying how she won't call me back or whatever. She replied to these texts and told me she was hanging out with her friend Brendan. Yeah, I was pissed.
I then sent her a long message explaining to her to stop trying to play me; the way I'm writing it really shows I'm mad. She says "I don't want to deal with your 🤬. Seriously, it's not even like we're dating" This thing that she's doing to me really felt like something that had happened to me with another girl 2 years ago. But I won't get into that.
I ask her what the hell is going on, she seems to avoid the question and just tells me she isn't attached to her phone, thus why she hasn't been texting me. I tell her that she must have not been texting her other friends for the last 3 days either, then. I keep asking her what is wrong. Did I say something? Did she just use me to get the attention of another guy? Maybe, Brendan(she says "Oh my, not this. He lives too far away.")? She doesn't have a straight answer to any of my questions; she brushes them off with a "Whatever" or "You don't even know". I tell her what she did was 🤬 up. I felt like she was leading me on, and maybe even using me to get with another guy(this is kind of what happened to me with that other girl..) I asked her if she just decided to stop talking to me and she replies with "Ugh, idk." She left me puzzled as hell.
This is one of the last texts I sent her:
"I understand if you wanted to stop our thing from continuing, but ignoring me isn't the way to do it; it just pisses me off."
I said this because of past experiences with girls..
What does she say?
"K"
We haven't talked since.
I felt, and still do, like poop. I'm not a guy that has a girlfriend often, or that hangs around with girls all the time. I haven't had a girlfriend since 9th grade(I'm in 11th now); I felt like I really found a good girl for me with Rachael. We have a lot of the same interests, same opinions on things, and she's insanely pretty.
TL;DR: Girl that likes me, and that I like, stops talking to me for no reason. I tell her about it, she says she still likes me and will talk to me more again, but she doesn't. Leaves me puzzled. Apparently, I didn't do anything, and nothing's wrong. I feel played. I might be over-reacting?
What's going on?
