Women are weird?

I had fallen in love with a woman I had known for a long time

We wrote more often via chat and had deeper conversations. I opened up and told her how I was developing more and more feelings for her and that she should give me a chance.

She rejected me and decided that we should stay friends

That hurt me, I definitely shed a few tears

Even in the "friendship" where we saw each other from time to time at school but mostly wrote to each other, she was often dry and short in her conversations with me

In the end I gave up on it because I was just suffering and didn't write to her or come to her anymore

And after about a week of talking to her, she wrote to me out of the blue for the first time and I wanted to stay away so I basically turned the game around and answered her dryly/uninterested and a few days later she said she was thinking about me and wanted me???

I don't understand?

She stepped on me and when I stopped putting up with that shit she wanted me??
