Telling your W you love her and going for a hug and a movie date are the complete opposite of what DB recommends. It's basically causing her to reinforce her conviction that she does not love you, does not want to hug you, and does not want to date you. I'm sorry, that royally suxx but this is the situation you're in. You can pursue and push and see if it works.

If it's not working though, stop doing it. If it's pushing her away, take a step back and see if that works instead.

What "works" means is a bit subjective. Is it making you feel better and stronger, is it causing your W to come closer?
