Dear Eric:

Before I can give you my opinion, I need to understand the following:

1) “finally we went on a date once“- how did the first date come about, what happened and what was said during the first date?

2) “She’s willing to go out on a second date” – how did it happen that she is willing to  go out on a 2nd date: did you ask her to go on a 2nd date with you? Did you tell her what you want to happen on the 2nd date (ex. see a movie together)?

3) “I sent her a birthday gift which is a music box wrapped in a box in which I put some notes on it“- what kinds of things did you write in those notes, and did she respond to the notes and to the gifts, if she did, how did she respond?

4) “But why do I always felt that I’m the only one doing the effort,  like she never texts me first. It’s always me“- what do you feel about her not doing any effort (not initiating texts, not sending you a gift) does it make you feel angry at her?
