Hey Doc,

First, a shout-out to you from Brazil!

Here’s my situation. I met Isabelle in a college class. At first I wasn’t interested in her since I never detected any buying signals, but after asking her about work and term papers via Facebook, she began to flirt with me, asking me personal questions, to the point where she said she wanted to see and hear me play guitar for her if I had time someday.

Anyway, eventually I got her number and I did make the mistake of talking too much with her over the phone, but I didn’t text her for two months when I felt I was too much all over her. Finally I told her that I’d call her to see my band play, but the band broke up, so I texted her to have a beer with me at the college bar. But it turned out that she didn’t even read the text.

All of this happened when we were on summer break. After she never answered my beer invitation, I threw her number away, but once we got back to classes she kept staring at me, and acting super nervous during the very few times I chatted with her (it was all just small talk). Then she began flirting with another guy right in front of my face. At first I thought that she was into him, but as time went by, I got the impression that she was just trying to rub something in my face. I got this idea because she kept looking at me whenever she was talking with this other guy.

One night I suffered a lapse of Self-Control. I texted Isabelle while drunk, telling her that she didn’t like the other guy, and that I knew she was trying to make me jealous. We proceeded to have a little fight through text messages, then she blocked me on all social media.

I disappeared for two weeks from college after our fight, and once I came back, she kept staring at me and showing me positive body language even though I tried to ignore her. So my question is this: is Isabelle lost or not? Do I still have a shot with her, or is she just trying to annoy me and get back at me?
