I only offered to be friends because I want her in my life.
When I brought the subject up again the other day, she said the same thing. Why won’t she give me a try?

If she likes me, why wouldn’t she want to be more than friends and date?

DEIDRE SAYS: I know it hurts but you cannot make someone feel something they do not.
You would be much better off putting your energies into meeting new friends, rather than hoping your friend will somehow change her mind.
