A,

I personally would do some family time things and keep it really light. In fact, if you were at a party with her, I'd focus on everyone, and spend only a little time with her. Let her watch you a bit. Talk to some girls and see how that goes...but do give her some attention...small doses of AinO may go a long way.

May I throw out a suggestion for discussion? It feels to me as though avoiding phone calls says, "I'm pissed at you". I'm not sure that's the message. I think the message is, "I've let you go. I don't care about you." Answering and making it super quick, like an unexpected, "sorry, gotta go", may give more of that impression. Smile when you pick up the phone. Say Hi pleasantly, but then get off ASAP and leave her wanting more. That's just a thought....kick it around. Play with it a bit.
