Me (M17) and this girl (F16) that I've been talking to for a little bit aren't on the best terms at the moment. Something that I never really got into with her about much was school, so everytime she'd take a while to respond, I thought she was either ignoring me or just not in the mood to talk. The way I found out she was busy doing schoolwork was because I got a little upset one night because she said she was tired already and we'd just started talking. My mind went to probably the worst places a teenage guy's head can go. I thought she'd gotten bored of me or just didn't feel like talking. (I know better now that if she didn't feel like talking, it was taken with a pinch of salt, but understandable) I then proceeded to get sarcastic and say "Ok, guess I'll talk to you whenever you want then", and I hadn't realized how big of an issue it was until she said "ok and i’m sorry for not texting as much, i’ve been doing a lot of things" I instantly felt bad because I know shes a hardworking student with good grades and great future, but I decided to take it personally (I know better now) I immediately apologized and she hadn't read until the next day. She hasn't responded since and it's been two days.
I'm not experienced with situations like this and it shows. Should I give her space and wait for her to respond or should I say something and check? Or did I overreact and apologize too quickly?
And please don't say "forget her, man. You can do better!" That's not the advice I need right now. Honestly.
