Repentance and forgiveness

Hello everyone, I asked for some help recently and I am happy to say that you helped me a lot. Now I want your opinion on something that is still related to the previous matter but I ask it as a general question so feel free to give examples from your own experiences.

So my question is… do people forgive? When you have done something to someone that made them feel bad but you really regret it and want to fix your mistake because you value them as a person what would you do? What if the person no longer wants to speak to you even to let you say you are sorry?

In my case it was confessing my feelings to a lovely girl that has a boyfriend. I only asked to be her friend and nothing more though… (I respect their relationship), but I think I came of as very needy and weak… even desperate which is the exact opposite of my usual self… it was a bad period of time for me. The last thing I sent her was an apology where I really meant everything I said about regretting my actions and explaining the reasons I wanted to be her friend. I never got an answer and I think I never will but I understand her.

In my case I will just let time do its thing and maybe try to initiate contact sometime in the future. I believe i will be her friend somehow in the future. Is it selfish to still want to be her friend or have a chance to explain my actions and apologize to her properly?
