So i dropped out of school about a month ago and havent seen any of my friends from school since i left since i live a few hundred miles away. A lot of people miss me, but one girl, who i consider my best friend, misses me so much. She knows that i like her more than just friends, and thats where the problems are starting for me. She's been giving me mixed signs a lot. She always tells me that she misses me but thats not the problem. One night about a week ago she asked me to sing her a song over skype, so i did. Then another time we were talking about how me leaving was good because it gave us space because things were a bit rough between us and that we've "developed new feelings for eachother" (or something along the lines of that, dont remember her exact words) So things like this make me think that she likes me more than just friends, but she told me a long time ago when i told her that i liked her that she only saw me as a friend. So i cant tell if she just misses her friend, or if she misses the person who she could have been with or anything else, I just dont know. Maybe there are other signs that im just not reading because I miss read signs that she gave before thinking that she did like me more when she didnt. I dont wanna miss read signs anymore because I dont wanna get hurt again.

I don't know why you dropped out of school or what you are doing now that you are not working on school but if you are a few hundred miles away, I would not try to keep in contact with this girl as she's at school and doing school things and you are doing your things and no longer have the same life. She is missing you but I think the you she knew at school. If you are not going back to school, your paths are going to diverge more and more?

Hello wolf,

The only thing I know to tell you is, don't drive yourself crazy wondering about what every little thing could mean.

If you still have feelings for her, maybe you can try to meet her somewhere? Just to talk to her and ask her how she feels about you.

Leading two different lives doesn't mean that you two can't still be close.......

if she told you "a long time ago" that you were only friends when you said you liked her and more recently said that she's developed new feelings, that would cancel out her earlier message. As scary as it is, you just need to be upfront with her. I gaurentee, she will be relieved with your candidness as well. Just start by saying you want to clarify what that conversation meant. You can even compare it to the other. "in the past when I said I liked you, you said we were only friends, but recently you said youve developed new feelings for me. Im wondering if this means you can see me as more than a friend now?" Relationships are best when they are built on honest communication, so if you cant do that with this person, is it really someone you can spend your life with? Talk to her.
