Just my opinion, of course, but here goes....
1) This is the harsh one! Some women simply like having a guy around. You enjoy each others company, but she wants nothing more, likely because she knows you are interested, and she can perhaps abuse that. You tell her how you feel, she tells you to go take a leap. THEN, you become interested in someone else, and even though #1 was not interested in you, she feels territorial about you, and is irked as hell that you are hanging with someone else, and is trying to snag you back now. Once she has you back, nothing will change. A lot of women are fickle bitches, and the grass is always greener!
2) She is just confused about how she feels about you, and your declaration of love freaked the hell out of her (I am dealing with this right now too, and it IS scary!). You being interested in someone else is truly terrifying to her, and she is thinking she just blew a good thing.
Go with your heart, but try and prepare yourself as much as possible for a letdown!
Good luck and take care!
