There's not a lot a could add that wouldn't simply echo what others have already said... but do try not to fret so sweetsong - just because someone doesn't reply straight away doesn't necessarily mean something negative. She may be busy, or perhaps she hasn't read your emails yet, or she may be waiting to reply when she is in the mood to - which again, isn't a negative thing :)
I have friends (and I know I am also like this) who I don't hear from for ages and out of the blue they'll resurface to say hello and, more often than not, it's like we've not been apart. When we're not in contact I'm not worrying that they no longer 'like me' and I'm sure they wouldn't be thinking that I didn't care for them simply because they hadn't heard from me. We're all individuals, try not to expect others to act how you would.
Give your new friend space - and try not to let negative thoughts niggle away at you.

As Lil said, perhaps some daily affirmations would help you.
((hugs))

thank you everyone for being here. well she still hasn't got in touch but i will try affirmations. i think i get a bit clingy to people how do you balance this sort of thing?

im never meeting the right people and when i do i think i overpower them then i over analyse the whole time. how do you trust and go with the flow and know whatever will be will be when you have been hurt before?
