writes:I'm a sophomore in college, and I find myself in a bit of a bind. I have not been in a relationship in over three years now. While I normally would not complain about this, I have my eyes on a girl who graduated the same year as me from the same high school. We've kept in touch ever since (she goes to a college a few hours from mine), and even hung out when we both happen to be back in town. We have a lot in common; same favorite singers, sports... Anyway sometime last year, we had been instant messaging and she asked me if I liked her, I explained that I did, and she said she only saw me as a friend. We've still been friends since, we still hang out, the whole she-bang (we're actually closer now I think because of that conversation)... and I'm still really crazy about her. Is it right to tell her again how I feel (hopefully in person this time), or do I just treasure our friendship? I feel like the worst case scenario is making our friendship even more awkward, but I honestly think she's the girl of my dreams! In the meantime, I'll continue to treat her well. Thanks for the help. Reply to this Question |

She's said she wants you as a friend and nothing more, so don't say anything to her, because youo'll get hurt and she'll run a mile. There will be another women out there who will love you.

 Do NOT tell her again. She already knows and believe me she has not forgotten. Reminding her will only make her feel uncomfortable. Declining someone's advances isn't easy for most of us. Don't compell her to do it a second time, and don't position yourself to be rejected again.
