having a problem.

i like this girl and she knows that. Last year we were very close but when she figured it out she has stayed away. i texted her but she didnt know my number so she said " who is this" so i said my name and she never texted back. i really like her because she is hot, funny, and has a bit of a backbone. Should i just move on or should i keep on trying to get her ?

Well, this avoidance is most probably one of two things: either she's reaaaaally not interested, or she just got a little scared off.

I say try to peruse her a little bit, A LITTLE BIT, try to strike up a causal conversation, say hi to her, ask her about common interests you have assuming you know them because you were close, etc.

If she doesn't reply or just kind of gives one words and never emphasizes, she's not interested, man. Move on. But if she does seem to get a little more comfortable with talking to you, which might be very subtle so you'll have to pay attention, there's a chance she just got a little shock.

But if it was just shock, this isn't a green light to jump her, you then need to peruse her as you would if you were friends, easily, nicely, comfortably, and not forceibly. If she backs away from that, sorry, it's not going to happen. If she doesn't, then again, not a green light, because she might just want to be friends.

But give it a go, see what happens. Good luck.

I agree with Jess. Don't just get all hung up on the girl, but don't give up completely, I mean you never know.

It seems like you really like her, so just try a little longer, to see if she has feelings for you.
If she doesn't, you just have to move on. You can't make someone feel the same about you, as you feel about them.

If I'm understanding your post correctly she has been avoiding you once she discovered your feeling for her and before that you were close as friends. My guess and it's only a guess is that she feels you want more from her than she's willing to give at this time and she is keeping her distance. The texing thing isn't working so just talk to her when you see her in person but keep it light. In time she may come around or maybe not but like the above post says you can't make someone like you just because you like them.
