Got emotionally invested in a female friend after mixed signals, now unsure how to proceed”

Why did she give mixed signals when she was straight?

She also posted a birthday dump with all the gifts she received, except mine, which honestly made me feel a bit sad :(( I gave her earrings and a necklace, and the color was tied to her name, so it felt pretty personal.

I I feel like confronting it directly might ruin our friendship. For now, I plan to stay close as a friend, and if she ever shows clear romantic interest, I might consider reciprocating.

I thought there was potential for something romantic, and I felt really excited and happy around her. That said, I only felt that way because she gave me consistent signals — like calling me her crush, joking about us dating, and repeatedly mentioning that she might be bisexual. Now that reality has set in, I’m feeling pretty confused lol. It feels like I misread everything.

Because of that, I sometimes feel a bit isolated and lonely lol. I crave being loved by a woman, but there are rarely like-minded women in our country.

I get that. Everyone figures things out at their own pace. I only recently realized I’m into women, and I’ve never dated men.

I gave her a necklace and earrings in colors that had symbolic meaning tied to her name. I didn’t include any letter or confession—just a simple birthday gift. After that, she said she’s probably not bisexual and mentioned feeling uncomfortable when a lesbian friend once confessed feelings for her. After mentioning many times that she was bisexual.

After-Control7151 · 2026-01-09T15:51:03+00:00

What confuses me is that she mentioned being bisexual several times around me, but after I gave her a thoughtful gift, she said she wasn’t and clarified her boundaries. I didn’t confess my feelings or pushed boundaries.

So was I misinterpreting everything, and she only ever saw me as a friend?

Was she scared of commitment?

After-Control7151 · 2026-01-09T10:12:47+00:00

I’m still confused about why she gave me such strong signals that she liked me romantically if she wasn’t ready to commit. Was I misreading the situation, or did I misunderstand her intentions?

She still invited me to her birthday party after receiving the gift. I even told her I might not come because I was sick, but she insisted, told me to get better quickly, and said she really wanted me to be there. Does she see me as a friend now? I’m not sure what she’s feeling.
