Why is my crush staring at me with a sad face?

Anonymous
So I like this girl. I've liked her for 8 months and fell for her hard. I think she liked me too because she stared at me a lot, a few times I caught her checking me out. When I caught her though she would look away. However the school year ended and I didn't ask her out.

So this year we have two classes together and it was just like last year. She would stare at me a lot and since we sat next to each other, quite a few times she would kind of lean into me and get really close. I wanted to ask her to homecoming, but then this other guy did. Then they began dating, and they did for about three weeks. They've been broken up for about a month and a half, but I didn't know they were dating until about two weeks ago and it hurt me. I've been ignoring her for the past few days.

However she's basically back to staring at me a lot. If I turn her way she'll try to make eye contact with me but then I'll avoid it because she hurt me and she didn't like me and I've been trying to get over her, but it's been failing. I still like her a lot, and today, I'll admit I stared at her. However she caught me and then she seemed super sad when I looked away. Why is she like this?
