Search Results: best girl friend dating a guy

There’s a girl that I like and tried moving on from twice on a couple of dating apps and in person with other girls, and she knows that. I’ve never felt this way before about anyone, until now. Some of my friends told me that I can do better, but I truly like her and don’t care about anyone’s opinion. Although, she’s 19 years old and I’m 28 years old. I drew a flower for her awhile back and I’m going to make a glitter pumpkin for her tomorrow and give it to her on Monday, when I see her. I care about her and want what’s best for her in life. I’m always asking her how she’s doing, always showing my concern for her about getting the coronavirus and always helping her out in general. She’s special to me. Just curious, if girls can end up liking guys they previously didn't? She’s only 19 years old and still has a lot to sort out in life, so maybe things can change and we can be more, than friends. She’s currently not looking for anything right now, which I’m respecting.

So 4 years shrunk down into a few lines.

I was friend with this girl for 4 years. She was the greatest friend I've ever had and she said I was the greatest one she's had. I made a promise to always love her and stay by her side no matter what. And she promised to never abandon me. (I've got abandonment issues.)
Well... I ended up falling in love with her. I confessed and tried to get her to go out with me for 2 years in the 4 years we were talking. She rejected me every time. In the past, I didn't mind her dating other people, because I wanted her to be happy and I supported it. And every time they would breakup with her, I was there to pick her back up. But just earlier this year, she found someone else to date and I couldn't take it anymore. We got into a fight, my insecurities came out and I said messed up stuff to her.
"You never really cared about me. I was just someone for you to talk to because nobody else was there." Stuff like that. So she told me I broke her heart and it would be best to not talk to each other anymore. So she chose this guy she knew for a few months over me, who she knew for 4 years and called me the greatest friend she ever had.
It's been almost a year since we talked. I miss her more than anything. If you were in her position and I reached out to be friends again, would you say yes or ignore me?
