I really liked this girl at my school, but never really did anything for most of the school year. About a month ago, I started saying hi to her, and we'd wave at each other whenever we see each other. Things were going fine and friendly until this one day that I decided to make a move and talked to her about studying together for an upcoming AP test.
She said she didn't have the time but offered to exchange emails. Then, when I got home, I emailed her and talked more about the subject. After about a day or so, I asked her whether she'd be able to meet another time, and she replied to both saying that she just can't meet.
Alright, so that's a turning point. From there on, things just got extremely awkward. All the greetings suddenly stop, replies to future emails sounded less friendly, etc.
The question is - how do I steer this back to normal? Did it become awkward as she got an obvious hint that I like her? What's the best thing to do?

I'd still like to be her just her friend for now if anything.

If I should back off, how long should I back off? Should I just keep all contact (including greetings) severed and just wait for everything to naturally normalize again?

She was trying to let you down gently and you did not catch the hint, so she is taking the hard line.
The girl needs space.
It wont get back to normal because she understood that you like her and she wont put herself in that situation again
Play dead for a while (at least a month) and then send a casual email.
If she contacts you, reply casually
If she does not sound interested, it is because she is not
You'll find someone else that suits you better

She may not have the same feelings you do or she may feel nervous or there may be someone else in the picture. . But try to steer back to the friendly chat and hellos. Things can change. Don't give up. If you you know here well enough ask her what happened. To sum it up get back to what was working. Then afrer she sees you are a good guy you will get the signal to ask again.

I had a situation like that in the sixth grade, about 1960. When I saw her at the 25th reunion, '92, she was still affraid to talk to me. I decided that it had to not really matter. Cause, a, there was nothing to do about it, and b, it really did'nt matter.

When a situation between two aquantiances that dont really know each other becomes awkward it is usually irreperiable.

It is awkward. Back off for awhile.

this is how girls are.........if you love one.........do not show your love...dont admit it.....or she will think you are a henpecked man.............have you heard of power of vagina?
many girls think they have this advantage over you.........you shouldnt spend money....dont show your love....until the time is ripe.......you're just interested in them.......dont be a pussy-whipped...
