> Well, I'd first just like to say, don't take anything I say too seriously. I'm only 16, and rather confused in general, even for a 16 year old, but, I'm going to try to give you some advice anyways. It seems like you're overanalyzing the relationship. I would suggest you just take it as it comes. If she tells you something, she tells you. If she doesn't tell you something, she doesn't tell you, that's all there is to it. I would try not to read anything else into it, because that seems to just add more frustration and confusing. She'll tell you what she's comfortable telling you. If you're constantly trying to manipulate your relationship with her to get exactly what you want out of it, it isn't really much of a friendship to begin with.

Well, there's more to it than that, so I disagree with your assessment here (for now, at least) but I appreciate the feedback, and will think about it.

> You said you don't even know if you want to be friends with her anymore, but to me it seems like you're saying that just because she didn't tell you right away. I can understand you being a bit upset about this, but if I were her I wouldn't tell you about some guy I may have gone out with just a couple times right away. You had a hard time with the break up and maybe she didn't want to risk hurting you more if it turned out to be just a couple dates. I really don't know. All I can really tell you is that if you wanted to be friends with her before this, this probably shouldn't change your mind.

Actually, even before this came up I was wondering how much I still wanted to be her friend. This didn't make me wonder, it just added fuel to the fire. Again, though, you had no way of knowing that.

> Again, I don't know what I'm talking about. I'm sick and have very little common sense at the moment, which, along as your complaining in chat about wanting someone to respond to your post, is probably why I decided to post this in the first place, so anyways.... Yeah.

Don't worry about it. Right now, ANY feedback is good feedback. Thanks for making the effort. :-)
