isn't it interesting that the worse a story is, the more details are given?
So I guess I'm saying maybe.
Wow, the semi-anonymity of the internet is really cathartic.
There was this girl, right? (how all great stories start, I know.)
Now, I was sort of crushing on her from afar, across my Economics class when I was in Junior year of High School. I never got up the nerve to say anything, and on the last day I was really fighting with myself to go up and talk to her. I wimp out, but just before leaving she comes up to me and hands me her number with the subnote "call me whenever you have a free day!"
So, I got about a year of friendship with her. She made it clear she wasn't interested in romance, mostly because it was senior year and we'd all be leaving soon. We hung out, we watched movies, I met her friends, etc.
End of this most recent summer, we're both gearing up to leave for college, and she surprises me with this text asking if I'm unhappy being "just friends" with her, because I'm always so awkward and she hates that and asks if there's anything she can do to help.
So, guess what? I wimp out and say I'm actually really happy and the awkwardness was just because I was uneasy because she had recently had some minor surgery.
Even if she was interested, I know that while she'd be great for me, I'd be terrible for her. she deserves more than I'd be able to give.
So. we both went off to college, and sometimes still chat online. I still hate myself for not asking her out during any of that time. Take a bullet for her? sure. Bury a corpse? no doubt. Some men say "has great personality" when they don't have anything nice to say, but that's not what I mean when I say she has great personality. When she opens her mouth, you automatically forget about how attractive she is- that's how great her personality is.
