Hey Ruf,
It is exciting to have them come on to your hand and the next day ignore it. I would not let it upset you. I realize it hurts your feelings. It will get better. One of my gerbils *always* runs from my hand. It does not mean that she does not like me because when I do get her, she is calm and stays on me for a bit before getting down.
Keep trying to bond and give her treats. That should help the gerbil get used to and excited about your hand.
