So I've been dating this girl I met on an online dating app for the last 7 months. I liked her compan y from day one. Since she was just out of a 5-year relationship, she asked me to take things slow.
She's in her final year of medical school. We hit a pause for some months and resumed meeting after her exams ended recently. She aced her exams and is now doing an internship; the schedule is insane, sometimes 12 hours a day.
She has a best friend with whom she goes to parties even during those exam months, which I was okay with since everybody needs a breather sometimes. The issue was that even after exams, she prioritized her best friend and her boyfriend over me, and only recently, when she had a fight with her best friend, did she start seeing me. All this time, we were in touch with texting, but never got time to meet up.
She apologized to me that she shouldn't have done that and that she really likes me, but right now she's not looking for any commitments, and she has seen enough of intimacy in her life that; nothing excites her anymore, but she wants me to be her friend.
And we started hanging out often, although I liked her, I never confessed my feelings since it might create a distance. Then again, I wasn't looking for some fling.
There always was an inconsistency in the way she treated me. It was confusing; like some days she's really talkative, then goes radio silent for days. Since her internship is demanding, I never gave it much thought.
Now she found a new friend during that internship, and again, I'm being sidelined. There is a pattern I can clearly see. I want not to feel anything for her and yet want to remain a good friend without any jealousy or any other feelings. Help me.
Just to be clear, I'm not trying to be a simp. The reasons I'm attracted to her love for her job and her dedication towards it; that just pulls me in, although that is not good for me in the long run.
She hates confrontation and is also short-tempered. I need advice on this situation on how to manage without triggering her and maintain my peace.
Help me?
