Trying to let go, but not giving up

The first thing on my to-do-list is to try and get over someone. The relationship I have had with this girl has been kind of rocky. She is the first person I have ever told that I liked her. She had liked me, but didn't want anything serious. We remain friends, but I like her too much and she knows it. She had told me that she doesn't want to be in a relationship with anyone, because when she tries to be someone's girlfriend, it changes who she is in a bad way. I told her that I would never want her to change for me. I like who she is and I like that she doesn't try to change who I am. The thing is that I think she is confused in her life as well and doesn't know what she wants. What I plan to do is to try and get over her. This break is perfect to do this, because I won't see her for two weeks. I still don't want to give up on her, though. This is where contradiction sets in. I have to find a balance and just be friends with this girl. I have another girl waiting on me, and she seems really nice. I have to first get over this other girl, before I start anything with another.
