Recently my friends at school have been trying to get me to go out with one of my good friends who is a girl, and I keep saying no. She already knows i like her and she doesn't feel the same. that was 2 years ago, i am still depressed because of it (and other things) and i just can't because i know if i were in a relationship with her, it WILL end since we are only in 11th grade, I would loose her and be sooooo depressed since I would never see her again or at least a long while. So now my friends are starting to turn on me because I'm not asking her out. either way I loose. I can understand what you are saying. It is hard to get over stuff like that. like for me, it has been almost 2 years and we never even went out once, and i was so depressed. I literally love her. I say don't let go. I have several friends who dated close friends, they broke up, stayed away from each other for about a year (i know, a long time) but... now they are best friends again.
