Should I contact this girl again?
When I was in my late teens I found this girl online through a social networking site and got to know each other quite well online. She used to tell me some pretty personal and awful things in her life. I guess I was a good listener. The following year she contacted me again and came down interstate to stay for a visit with me.
Unfortunately things didn't go so smoothly. I felt uncomfortable spending so much time with someone I just met for the first time in real life. Also I wasn't particularly used to spending a lot of time with a girl at that point in time. She on the other hand has had quite a few boyfriends and stuff and I felt slightly intimidated in the bedroom. Also she smokes and drinks and our lifestyles are quite different. ( I don't smoke, social drinker, eats healthy, goes to the gym)
I didn't treat her as well as she probably expected, we were getting into arguments and it was quite bad at times and now when I look back I feel so much guilt and feel haunted by some of the memories even though its been a few years. We did however have good times too where we had a good laugh, enjoyed being around each other. But the bad things probably outweigh the good, I won't describe them here as they are embarrassing.
Anyway after she left I was in a bad way. I was depressed and had to be in hospital for a while as well. I've come a long way since and doing much better. About a year after I sent her a message. Anyway couple months later she contacted me again to come over saying this time might be better. I said no as I was going on holiday for a month. I kinda felt like she was trying to use me and perhaps my reply didn't sound so friendly. I even deleted her from my fb.
Lately though I have been thinking about her. Still feeling a lot of guilt over what happened a few years ago and I almost feel a second chance or something might make that feeling go away.
I was thinking of messaging her again... Should I? Should I walk away from it? And what should I say? I thought of asking if we could be friends again but that sounds desperate? If I shouldn't contact her, then how could a get away from the feelings of guilt? There is pretty much no one I feel comfortable talking about it with in person... Any advice?
Thanks in advance for any help!!

i feel like you're just running away from confrontation. Like what you said here... the relationship didn't end well, you got sick, recovered, and messaged her.
she messaged you back and said it might be better, but you deleted her off fb.
I don't understand? If you don't confront your fears you'll continue to be guilty...
Gosh go message her again! Apologize to her! tell her what's been happening in your life and apologize for acting so rudely.
EVEN if she comes back and actually uses you, then you know that she isn't worth it.
it's a win-win situation.
