      I haven't been depressed in a long while ... I feel like shit ... I just came from a party 1 hour before closing time, didn't drink ( 3 beers in 4 hours ) didn't take any drugs ... The reason ... I think I love this girl, she's a friend of mine, not a close friend, but we see each other regularly and I'd like it to be more often ... Anyway, tonight, we were together at the same party, she, with her friends ( mostly guys; some of them I know ), and I with some other friends ... she left with her friends without even telling me ( or at least nod ), maybe I'm too childish and should not care about that. It's her birthday soon, I owe her a lunch, I think I will risk my friendship with her at that time by telling her my feelings at the risk of ending some common relations. :(( God I hate this feeling.

        Too many times people hold back and try to spoon feed a "relationship" only to miss their chance. Other times they push too hard and scare off their potential mate. It's impossible to truly know what someone else is thinking or feeling without communicating with them. Just be open and honest and above all... be yourself. P.S. Oh and Mr. Anonymous... don't do it "anonymously". ;P ;P ;P "Reality is what refuses to go away when I stop believing in it." Philip K. Dick

                      Don't give up and start analysing yourself. Come clean with her over some drinks. Foods always bad in those situations as you will have butterflys in your belly. I was in a similar situation 10 years ago. Really likeded a girl at Uni, but she was seeing someone else. Then in the second year when she came back she had broken up with him. Anyway a few months passed, and I made a move, and just told her how I felt. 3 weeks ago I married her, after we have been together 7 years now. You'll never know unless you tell her, and you can't go though life being secretly in love with a freind. Its just wrong in so many ways. She should know, and you should get it out. You'll feel better for it. Either she will go with it, and your a winner, or it was not meant to be but you can get back to living your life without something eating you all the time.

                        Well don't give her a whole speech blurting out your love or whatnot. That'll just push you away from 'relationship' and towards 'creepy stalker.' I'd bring it up obliquely and casually. Make eye contact and ask her, "You know, I've always wondered if it's true that people can actually get into a real relationship after they've been friends for a while." Women are much better at subtelty than men, and if she's listening, she'll know EXACTLY what you're hinting at. At this point, she'll LIKELY become uncomfortable, shift away from you, avert her eyes, and say something like "no, I don't think it can happen," at which point, you have your answer, don't you? If she's interested, she'll take the bait and say, "Yes, it's possible" and her body language will tell you everything you need to know. At that point, you just say, "Well then, why did we never get together?" At the very least, the rest of the conversation will be interesting. You can also use that followup if she's one of those women who are completely stunned or answers with something noncommital like, "With the right person, maybe," in which case you'll have to force the issue anyway. And don't put this off - your friendship was effectively over the instant you wanted to sleep with her. Really, you're not happy now - why would you be LESS happy (in the worst case scenario) without her in your life? I guarantee that you'll still be less miserable even if you never see her again. And DON'T play the 'well maybe if I keep hanging around she'll grow to like me...' game if she shuts you down because you will be looking forward to many, many, many, more nights like this. Count on it. Some women would even keep you hanging by a thread just to boost their own ego. Luck, - F

Anonymous wrote: she left with her friends without even telling me ( or at least nod ), maybe I'm too childish and should not care about that. Sounds like you're crying like a woman. Even if you were going out, would she owe it to you to keep you updated to all her movements, or be careful to talk to you before she left a room you were in every time ?

                                  how lucky you are. I had the similar situation years ago, but I just kept that feeling in my heart never told her, and then we went to different cities. and again, I saw her in a party last new year, she's pregnant, and she found me when I was looking at her, she walked to me and smiled, she asked "does I look different? the bully" . for a moment I couldn't say a word, I just smiled and at last I got something to say " yes, different. more beautiful now". she smiled, said "that's nice" , and then walked away. yeah, really nice.

                                    how lucky you are. I had the similar situation years ago, but I just kept that feeling in my heart never told her, and then we went to different cities. and again, I saw her in a party last new year, she's pregnant, and she found me when I was looking at her, she walked to me and smiled, she asked "does I look different? the bully" . for a moment I couldn't say a word, I just smiled and at last I got something to say " yes, different. more beautiful now". she smiled, said "that's nice" , and then walked away. yeah, really nice.

                                    Yep, I know I am and I'm not going to forget it any time soon. Its an awful thing having that feeling inside having someone as a freind with who you want it to be more than that, but being to polite to want to push it. With me it was always at the wrong moment, I would always start to feel sick, which would put me off what I was eating or drinking and my mouth would go dry. Anyway I can only imagine how gutted you were to see here again, and that she was fairly obviously with someone else.
