Despite not having spoken to a former school friend I used to want a relationship with a long time, every Christmas, valentine's day and birthday I've posted her a card but I haven't really had a response from her and I've seen on occasions but I have felt socially awkward to approach and not knowing what to say.
It feels like what I'm doing is wrong but no one has said anything to me to leave her alone or go away.
I don't hang around or stalk her, I do leave her alone and give her space and go about life doing other things.

I'm just feeling like I'm getting those thoughts again where I feel like everyone in one form or another are relationships and so on especially in their 30s like we are but sometimes I feel like I've still got the mentality or a 20+ year old than a 30+ year old and thinking I should be more serious and more mature all the time.

Regardless of your motives, if someone never responds to your greetings with greetings then stop doing it.

Stop engaging in this behavior.
