i like this girl, and as far as i know she likes me back.

we went to prom together, and i asked her to be my girlfriend. she is gone for the summer, so she said she wanted to “wait and see”. i thought this was an excuse and she just meant “no”. but in my yearbook she wrote “i’m glad i met you this year. we’ve had lots of fun. wait for me until next year.” i’m sad and confused, what do you think she means by all this? and what’s something that cheers you up?

I think it is inconsiderate and annoying of her to tell you to wait without assuring you that she will wait for you.

sunshine, black eyed susans, working towards a goal, and weird science cheers me up :)

I would not take both of these incidents as a high and a low. What she wrote in the yearbook is like a Facebook posting on the wall. “wait until next year” is just a way of saying to look to a better tomorrow. Things are looking up. It has zero to do with any relationship the two of you might have.

On the reverse end “wait and see” was only because of the distance she was going to be away from you. Why invite drama into a relationship at the very beginning because you pine to hear her voice when she’s hundreds of miles away?

Bottom line here is this. A relationship with her may or may not happen. But if it does she is going to want someone to be her rock; her steady, calm, positive, boyfriend. Right now you are like a wallflower (look it up) and relationship isn’t even at the starting gate.

She sounds like she likes you at least as a friend! The best relationships come from two people who have a good friend relationship first! It gives each other a non committed way to spend time together and get to know each other with out the pressure of a committed relationship!

I would enjoy your summer keep your options open for other girls you might like and keep in touch with her as a friend. If you two have face book message her on there share what your summer is like and keep it simple.

Next year is a whole new time to see her again and continue your friendship to see where it might go.

For now appreciate the friend you have in her and enjoy your summer.
