Search Results: giving a girl space

So there's this girl who joined work a while ago, my work is male dominated so she is one of the few girls in our dpt At first she was really warm cause of her habit of being social and nice. I didn't mistake it for flirting but i was the only guy she talks to regurarly as others were not her type and dont know how to approach a girl honestly, so with time im like i like this girl and she may not be the most beautiful but i get attracted to the personality, we share some laughs and jokes then she began staring at me more and at the beginning she asked for my number which was weird, i also didn't mistake it as if she's interested in me. So for the first couple of months i helped her in everyway and i was a complete gentleman opening the door for her and carrying her heavy laptop for her, one day she's like you smell good and kept giving me compliments. She knew i liked her but there are days she gives me the notion that she wants her space and i never did invade it i was just being there for her so i kind of pulled away, I've had my own share of heartaches so i was cautious going ahead, in other words i played it safe from day 1 but i sometimes i think that maybe im too kind or too there for her, sometimes she ignores messgaes which are completely work related or just asking about her, and other days she is the complete opposite, we talk a lot and one day she said she has a friend who is moving over to our town and he as with her at college. I kinda knew that maybe she was in a relationship but sometimes she shows me that she's not in one. One day i asked her for coffee before her leaving for new years, and she said she was busy and i figured that she wasn't, anyways i was cold with her and she kinda got it and asked me if there's something wrong with me and she was worried, that day she's like yeah that guy i told u about has a problem in shipping his car he's asking me nicely and i wish u can help, we had a relationship in college and im telling u cause ur like my brother?

Being a high school freshman having relationships from the start is a bad idea and it's hard to maintain one. But my ex broke up with me because I nagged and annoyed her also pulling pranks. Due to the fact that she wasn't affectionate and spent time with me. Rather be with her friends 80% of the day. I stayed loyal, gave her tons of gifts but she didn't give back. She'd say she loved me but never shown it. But recently after giving her space a week later we were in class, watching a movie she came up to me to share seats and told me she was cold and having period cramps, as a gentleman I comforted her and she looked up and me and said "you know I still love you right. I love this girl to death and tried my best to be the greatest boyfriend ever she's the one who has a perfect everything.

But I don't know what to do, change my behavior and get back together and hope she'd be more affectionate or move on.
