Hello.

Here is the situation, and it's driving me completely up the wall.

I fell in love with a girl who is 15 years younger then me. She's 19, i'm 34.

Now, i'm not good with ladies at all. So far I never had any relationship. Mainly because I was shy and well. The few ladies that I did think loved me, well they just kept me in reserve until another guy came along.

We both go to the same martial arts school. And at some point I fell in love with her.

After some time of soul-searching I decided to ask her out. And she accepted. We had a wonderful time, we talked alot and she was very open about herself.

We went to another few outings, a movie and a market and we also ended up talking alot. Especially her past troubles. But I never got the feeling that there was a romantic click. Just a good deep friendship. But maybe i'm just being too cautious there and letting her (and my) past relations get in the way.

She's been bullied at school alot, and she has a self-confidence problem.

Then she went on vacation to visit her old friends. She's from another country.

And here my worries start. I never told her I loved her. Hinted at it alot. And I already resolved that I will tell her I have feelings for her when I get to see her alone again.

I have her on my facebook, and I occasionally chat with her. (I don't want to come of as needy) and I did sent her 2 emails during the 3 weeks she's been gone.

She replied to none of my emails. And when I chat with her on facebook it's always very short answers.

Moreover, I noticed that when I post something on her wall she hardly ever 'like' it, but things her friends post do get likes.

Am I over analyzing her behaviour?

It will be another 8 days before she gets back in the country, and even then maybe some days before I see her again. And maybe even longer to be together again.

Right now, i'm completely at a loss on what to do.

I don't want to tell her on FB that I love her, and I don't want to do that in an e-mail. Both options seem too cold to properly do that.

Any advice is appreciated.
