Man Omega, I'm sorry that's happening to you. Fear not--it will be revealed in time whether or not that was the wrong time for you to tell her your actual feelings. Who knows: it may have been the exact right time.
Anyway, my story is as follows...
I had known this girl since the summer of 2007. We met at a Renaissance Faire in Wisconsin, but we didn't really know each other that well the first year. But last year ('08) we started to get to know each other a lot better and I thought that we had a lot in common. I ended up falling for her, and I had every reason to think she liked me back. This, sadly, was not the case...
At the cast party that the faire (it is spelled f-a-i-r-e, I think it's the old fashioned spelling) holds after the summer I danced with her. She asked me how I felt, I told her, and she proceeded to tell me that she did not like me, that she was sorry she had led me on, etc.,...
Anyway, a month or two later she started talking to me over Facebook, in a flirty style. I still really liked her, so of course I got excited and thought that maybe there was still a chance. After a couple of weeks, she told me she really did like me back. Thus, a relationship was born, and I thought that Christmas would be fantastic.
I was wrong. A few days after Christmas she told me she didn't like me like that, that she only wanted to make me happy because 'she really ares about me'. If she cared so much about me, why didn't she just stay my friend?
A week before I found out her actual feelings, she also told me some disturbing information about her past: when she was in 5th Grade, she had 3 boyfriends AT ONCE. And she mentioned it casually, like it was no big deal. I couldn't hide the shock from my face. I tried to ignore it, but I kept thinking 'if she did that once, what's stopping her now'?
Now, after a month of not talking to me, she pops up on Facebook and starts talking about Valentine's Day. Because I haven't heard enough of her lies...does she really like me? I don't know. She keeps lying about it. At this point, even if she did like me I'm sorry to say that that won't get her anywhere. She blew it, I'm moving on. I'm just dreading the day when we're not going to be friends anymore (I've tried hard to stay her friend, but if she keeps bringing up the subject of relationships, and Valentine's Day, you can see why it would be hard to remain her friend).
So, that's my story.
