So I let this situation go on for a little too long but I love when the community analyzes these sorts of messages.

She established a LJBF situation and being naive I agreed. This continues until after reading some posts here and an Ayn Rand video I decided to re-establish my frame.

I message her and say I can't be friends because I am attracted to you.. she persists.. I say let's talk over coffee before class and she rebutes saying " there is nothing to talk about. And it would only make things uncomfortable, can't we be friends and just move on"

My response "understood, I'll leave you alone."

Now for my favorite part was her reply:

"Oh come on! Don't make me the bad guy haha we could be friends if you'd just stop telling me this stuff. Any kind of romantic relationship with anyone is just not in my cards rn "

Just NC with this girl is how to go forward. Saveing myself any more mental energy.

Update: Thanks for the feedback this is why I love this community - it is very grounding (most of the time.)

I try to respond to everyone because all of your comments are great interpretations and advice

This will probably help me incase of any future rejections which I look at as learning lessons. I'd rather fail and fix my mistakes then to fail and repeat them perpetually.

On that note I'll Segway and say I'm excited for my bulking season - I went from 240-170 so while everyone else is shredding I'll be bulking. Wish me luck.
