Some people just don't get it (me)

I agree with MsVtec on this one. Communication IS the key. The way I see it is that she's giving you the cold shoulder because she doesnt want to hurt you. Seems like she does value you a lot or she wouldn't have stayed friends with you after you confessed your feelings towards her. So, there must be something in the way of you and her, whether it be that she doesnt feel the same way or if she doesnt think it would work out for some reason (her dad). I had a friend like that that I liked. I told her how I felt and she gave the the cold shoulder. She loved me as a friend but didn't care for me more than that. She shut me out for awhile so I wouldnt get the wrong impression. It feels so bad to get led on when there's nothing really there. Communicate. I feel for you. Hopefully this one works out for you more than mine did for me.
