I just thought of a possible factor...her parents. Perhaps her parents are telling her relationships (or just one with me) are bad, or influenced her in some other way. If that's the case...well I dunno how I feel then. Perhaps there might be hope in the future then.
Well I haven't said anything for two weeks. She knows how I feel, so I figured I'd leave the next move to her. She hasn't done anything, so I think I'll just send her a REALLY nice bracelet, and leave it at that. Besides, it's not like I'll never see her again. If I were to go so far as to damage the friendship we have, and we both decided to be camp counselors next summer (which may likely happen), it'd be eight weeks of total hell. Things are just too complicated for me to deal with.
Thanks again

I like this idea; just make sure she knows it's simply a reflection of the fact that you like, care about, respect, and are interested in her. . . . and not something that comes with strings or expectations.
Don't get me wrong; I'm not
at all a proponent of expensive gifts as a necessary part of a relationship. However, if it's what you want to do. . . well, in this case it sounds charming and romantic, though there are any number of equally charming and romantic but less materialistic options. I suppose I should shut up now, though, and just say. . . sounds good. And good luck.
