So this goes back to my college days. It was a 4-year course, and she joined later during second counseling. First day itself she sat next to me in the computer lab, and we started talking casually from there.

Slowly, people around started noticing. My friends began teasing me, her friends teased her too. Initially she used to get a bit annoyed when my friends teased, but over time when her own friends did it, she would just shy away or smile it off.

In class, we didn’t really talk much. But online, it was completely different. On WhatsApp and Instagram, we had proper conversations—memes, songs, random chats. If a few days passed without talking, she would usually be the one to send something and restart the conversation.

I was always on the helpful side—notes, projects, anything academic. I never said no. Most of the time, conversations were about her—her daily life, how she felt lazy, things she couldn’t get done, small problems. She also told me about her ex—how he treated her badly, cheated and all that. Even then I didn’t step back, just kept going with the flow.

Then in 3rd year, I took leave for a few days due to some reason. She texted me asking what happened, checking up on me. That kind of thing again made it feel like there was something genuine there.

Later I got a job and left college, came back home. Even after that, we kept talking. Same pattern—memes, songs, random conversations. We even used to call each other “Tom and Jerry” jokingly.

At one point, just randomly during teasing, she even agreed to go out on Valentine’s Day. But from my side it never happened due to some internal reasons.

Then things started shifting.

One day she told me some junior was hitting on her. I was in my hometown, couldn’t do anything. Around that time, she asked me who I liked. I thought this was the moment and said it directly—it’s her.

Then I asked clearly: if I asked you properly, would it be yes or no?

She said she couldn’t say yes… and couldn’t say no.

Said she had a lot to figure out in her life, growth and all that. Also mentioned she really appreciated all the help and effort I had given her.

That answer itself was enough to understand something was off, but I still stayed.

After 2 days, she again asked about my feelings—like what exactly I felt. I told her mine were always there (even though realistically it wasn’t always that consistent). She then said hers were “on and off.”

That line stuck.

Also somewhere in between, she mentioned one of her friends had told her that if I ever asked her, she should reject me. I didn’t take it seriously then, but looking back it adds up.

After that, chats became dry. Energy dropped.

Then I gave her a clear ultimatum—just yes or no, nothing else.

Within a day, she said she couldn’t take a decision and might regret later, so she backed off ambiguously.

That was it.

We stopped talking properly for some time. But still, randomly:

- she would send reels

- watch my stories quickly

- like things here and there

Like something still lingering without any meaning.

At one point, I asked her to meet casually somewhere to eat—she rejected that directly.

There was also a phase where I blocked her, then unblocked. She said she was angry about that. Still, birthdays and all we wished each other.

Later during a college event, when her friends again teased her about me, she just smiled shyly like before. That whole situation felt strange.

Even after all this, thoughts about her kept coming back again and again. So I went for final closure. I told her clearly—if it’s not yes, just say no properly.

She said no for sake

Also said she doesn’t want anything now, doesn’t want to feel left out again like before. At the same time, she said I’m not just a good guy but a great one.

That was the end of it.

Now it’s been a long time.

No proper interaction with any girl since then.

No talking stage, no connection, nothing, it just feels ded man/woman, no matter how much good looking or anything people of my age shows up to me

Life is mostly:

- home responsibilities

- sometimes guitar, sometimes TV

But socially, especially with people my age or opposite gender, it’s almost zero. Office doesn’t help either—mostly older people there.

Even if I see someone on social media or outside, there’s no strong reaction. No urge to start anything, no interest in approaching.

At night sometimes there’s a slight empty feeling, but nothing intense.

Otherwise it’s just going on like this- controlled, but kind of repetitive.

No drama, no confusion, but also nothing really haet.

I was emotionally invested, but she remained non-committal.

NEVER WAS IN A HURRY, never went for just anyone, stalking on Instagram or anything, never nothing. Never felt FOMO of having a girlfriend or anything

What y'all think, Abt my future interactions would go by ?? My situation?

During college, I developed a connection with a girl who initially interacted with me through chats, memes, and occasional conversations. I was consistently helpful to her (notes, projects, support), and she also initiated contact at times, which made it seem like there was mutual interest.

However, there were early signs of inconsistency:

She frequently talked about her past relationship

Communication was mostly about her life

Interaction was stronger online than in person

After I left college for a job, we continued talking. At one point, she even casually agreed to a date, but it never happened.

Later, when I directly expressed my feelings and asked if she would say yes or no to a relationship:

She avoided giving a clear answer initially

Said she couldn’t say yes or no

Later admitted her feelings were “on and off”

I eventually gave a clear ultimatum asking for a direct answer. She responded with a “no,” stating she couldn’t take a decision and didn’t want future regret.

Despite this:

She occasionally re-initiated contact (reels, reactions)

Maintained a light connection without commitment

This created a situation where:

I was emotionally invested, but she remained non-committal.

Eventually, I accepted the rejection and stopped engaging.
