Should I try and talk to her?

[FMG24]

Just 2 days ago the girl I've been seeing less than a month just told me that she wants to be friends. She said she doesn't think it's gonna work out for a couple of reasons and she told me she doesn't want to be in a relationship atm. Said she just wants to be friends. She told me this over Skype. I want to talk to her in person about it though. I don't know if we'll be able to work it out or not, I hope we can, if not I would still want to be friends with her as well. I guess it's just something I need to hear in person.

Anyway, her reasons:

Before we started seeing eachother, I told her that there was somebody I liked, and I told her I did (I am talking about another person) I liked her to but I just couldn't tell her, I'm extremely shy. But she told me she liked me (over Skype, she's shy too) and that's when we started seeing eachother. That other girl (who I don't have feelings for now) is one of the reasons she thinks it won't work between us.

She's also younger than me, and I guess that she's afraid of how people will react to us being together. People didn't react well when she was dating someone in a higher grade before. But the thing is, before we started to see eachother if I thought matters in a relationship. To me, it doesn't. I told her if both people are mature enough, age shouldn't matter. She agreed with me.

Lastly, she told me that she doesn't feel as strongly as she did before. It really hurt that she couldn't tell me this in person. We barely see eachother in school, and have only been with eachother alone two times. We've hung out with other friends. I don't understand how her thoughts changed so quickly when we haven't been able to be together that much. I think we should give it more time.

I was doubting it would work because of the age, but I stopped caring about that. And just after that happens, she tells me all this. I want to believe, she's usually very honest, but she didn't tell me in person. I want to work it out, I like her and only her right now. I don't know if we'll be able to, but like I said, I just need to hear this in person.

What do you guys think I should do? Anything I should say if I talk to her? And just cause, how about your opinion on age difference.
(Sorry for the long post, to whoever actually reads this)

*This may seem harsh, but its my take on it*

Well first things first, a year or two age difference means nothing as long as both people are mature enough. Also, you directly told her that you liked someone else, which did two things to her.
1. You basically friend zoned her by telling her you like someone else. Imagine if the same thing happened to you.
2. By now going telling her you like her after liking someone else, it comes off as if she was a second option, and not that important enough to you in the first place.

Nobody ever wants to feel like they were someone else's backup plan. We've all been through that at some point, and no one wants to wait. Most emotions die quickly especially in Middle/High School, although i dont know what year/grade you are in.

Anyways you gotta think about it and put yourself in her shoes. How would you feel? I mean you can try and explain to her how you did like her before and your feelings, but I don't know. I've never been in your position, but that's my take on it. Hope things work out!

I felt terrible about telling her that after she told me that she liked me. I just couldn't tell her that I liked her when she asked me who I liked. She isn't a second choice to me, but I understand how I could have made her feel that way. Once we were seeing eachother, she asked if I really liked someone else or if I was just making it up, I felt the right thing to do was to be honest. But now she's the only one I care about. I guess she thinks otherwise though.

I feel this is the main reason she wanted to 'break-up'. (We never were an "official" couple, we decided it was best to take it slow) I think she might be making up the other reasons. She's normally honest with me though.

Okay, we're possibly gonna hang out tomorrow. Do you think I should try talking to her about it or wait a little bit? I need to let her know how I really feel and I don't wanna do it over the internet.
