Needs space?

ok so...i started talking to this girl like last week. and i havent been like bombarding her with texts, but i have texted her like..one daily in the afternoon. so i like i felt like an idiot while i talked to her because i would get shutdown a lot. so i asked her friend what i should do and she said to text her once like every few weeks, and have her talk to me when she wants to to. i asked her if she got annoyed with me, and she told me she didnt get annoyed, but i did it too much...should i just follow that? or did i already mess everything up..
