She's made it clear she doesn't want to hear what you have to say.

If you feel the need to say something, apologise through one of her friends or possibly her mother (if you feel comfortable phoning her home - I wouldn't! )

Other than that, just stay away...she doesn't care, and neither should you.

I don't know which cricket is sitting on youur shoulder but it sure isn't Jimmeny. Your search to "do the right thing" has turned into a potential stalking episode. So far her messages have escalated from I'm not fond of you to I don't really like you, to Leave me alone, to Don't talk to me at all for any reason. The next step on her part will probably be to have either a)A restraining order or b) a contract on your life.
I know you want to do the right thing. The right thing is to leave her alone. Do not apologize. Do not put messages in the paper. Anything which you "do" (any action) will only make matters worse.
Lilacor; I'm not trying to be mean or cruel. In my opinion leaving her alone is the best thing for her and you.

Right,Antryg. Lilacor, I asked the Resident Female at my house, that would be the beauteous Galadria, and her comments were (unedited): "This guy is obviously a nerd, and this girl, ex-cheerleader, dance team, etc., has gotten to the point where the next thing that she does is have her boyfriend, brother, or some other husky guy she knows go and talk to him to tell her to leave her the {heck} alone, or buy some bruises. That thing that is talking to him isn't Jiminy Cricket, it is Mr. Testosterone, telling him, 'Ooh, if I can only word it right, she will be my friend, and, maybe more. Maybe, a lot more.' Face it, Lilacor, the girl isn't interested in you. Maybe, in ten years, if you play your cards exactly right, you may have a shot at her, but now, hell no, no way." Those are her comments, as close as I can get. Cruel, but you wanted to know what "the girls" thought. Sorry, dude.

DEFINITELY ignore her. If she goes as far as to actually tell you that she doesn't like you, then that is *not* a good sign. Just leave her alone... Pretend you don't know who she is.

After you serve a mission, you will be the most famous, hot-topic that the girls know as long as you are the newest RM. You know the deal. Well...it is even more so here in the South. The church is different here than in Utah. There are not so many RMs to choose from. You would have your pick of hundreds of girls, begging to date you! And the more foreign your mission is, the hotter you are. Do you want a date every night with a different girl for every night of the week? You got it, here! In Utah, the only way to get a girl is to be going to BYU, as an RM of course. For all you non-mormons...an RM is a Return Missionary. A missionary that serves his or her full-time without getting sent home for breaking rules is a true RM. In the field, not only do you learn more in those two years about life than all the rest of your life thus far...a guy comes back knowing how to cook, clean, do his own laundry, and not always have to have things his own way. Here in the South, you're a gold-mine! Girls eat you up so fast, you run away for fear because they are so aggressively after you!

Take it for what it's worth...that's my story.

Yep...those guys would never get an LDS girl. Even innactives are smart enough to get a good boy!

ROFL Galadria! I was thinking all of that myself! Your jiminy cricket sounds neurotically overreactive and in desperate need of some valium. I don't even understand what you're apologising for. The chick just isn't interested. It happens. What you should be apologising for is bombarding her with needless and unwanted apologies. Uh... but don't!!

Just leave her be and move on. The only thing you did wrong was to think you needed to apologise to her and then irritating her socks off by trying to. You're probably a nice guy, a little intense maybe... but just not what she's after. She clearly wasn't scarred by anything you did that you think you need to apologise for, and that's the only reason you should apologise for anything. If you're apologising to make yourself feel better then go work that out on your own because she has nothing to do with it and shouldn't have to be stalked until your conscience is clear.

But yes, the other people here are all right. You just need to let her go. If she is ready to talk to you or forgive you for whatever you may have done, let her be the one to approach you about it. Her walking away like that is a sign that she's still too angry, or just not ready to start a conversation about your situation. The best thing you can possibly do is back right off, and give her all the space she needs. If she cares about you, she will come back to you someday and be ready to talk. If she doesn't come back, you have no other option than to draw your conclusions and move on.

I have to agree with what was said above, and not to stereotype here but she does seem like that classic 'cheerleader chick' as they call it.
What with the hand gestures and all, i'd say forget her mate
