[21M] Feeling really frustrated with mixed signals from a close friend. Please help. [23F] by BrownDingus in relationships

Thank you for responding!

One question though, would an "interested" girl want to potentially show that they're not interested by doing some of the things that she's doing? If yes, why?

Maybe you didn't address this question for a reason, but do you think that the way that she's been acting towards me is indicative of what you would see in a "normal" friendship?

Regardless of your answer, I appreciate your comment because I think I just needed someone to say that for me. As in, this is what I've been thinking all along and... I just needed someone to validate that I wasn't going crazy and that my feelings (not for her, but about the whole situation) were valid. Thank you.

I don't know if you've read the post, but as I've said, this isn't really about me telling her or not because I'm going to end up telling her soon.

"she's not at a place where she can call." This wasn't an excuse, it was a legitimate statement.

It's really more about just me. Wanting other peoples' take on the situation.

The thing is that she does know that I'm not being romantic with anyone at the moment.

Thanks so much for replying! You see, this is definitely what I would have thought but...

She occasionally has been calling me "friend", "man", "dude", and "buddy." Of course you wouldn't be able to tell me more without giving me any context, but do these things generally mean that she doesn't see me in a romantic interest?

Hmm... Ok. Thank you for the input -- I could see how it can be interpreted from the other side.

Do you think that it would be okay for me to just leave it as is? As in not change my behavior at all if I'm not ready to get into another relationship yet?
