This is a story about unrequited love and personal growth. And the tale might be lengthy if I start ranting so if you're not interested you can move on now.
So it starts in my sophomore year of my high school. I meet a girl named E and she becomes one of my best friends. E and I become really close, but I have no feelings for her at all. However, she has a friend A. Now A isn't a drop dead gorgeous bombshell but she's a tall blonde that could honestly be a model if she wanted to be. A beautiful smile to add on top. Now I thought she was just cute at first but I quickly found out she had a razor sharp wit, a good sense of humor, and a love for Doctor Who. I don't think she liked me at the time but I was like I should at least try so I started watching Doctor Who. We became friendly enough with each other after that, but me and her would always have these long winded debates. I liked these moments because we both wanted to be right and we tried forcing our wills on the other, not the most romantic thing but hey I loved her for her wit and charm. She was pretty sheltered and often my street smarts were all that exceeded her intelligence. Anyways this continues into the Senior year. Now I was head over heels for her, but she never returned the feelings(no signals I noticed) and I heard rumors that she liked another guy so I never mustered the courage to tell her how I feel. So everyday, I see her and try what I think is flirting (boy, was I dumb high schooler) in hopes she would return the feelings. At this point A and I are pretty good friends, but E keeps asking me out to events and I go with E to all of them.Now, I thought this was as friends, but everyone now thinks we're dating and E also thinks we're in a relationship. I see no future with A despite my feelings for her and E is my best friend and I treasure our friendship dearly and I realize E probably likes me as much as I like A, And now I can't bring myself to break her heart.
