In December I met this girl that worked weekends at my ski resort job, instantly thought she was attractive and a couple of days of working with her she is fun. I was in a funk and digging myself out but after starting to hang out with her it helped exponentially. In January I asked her out on a date (she was 2 weeks or so single though I didn't know) because she was the first person I've genuinely liked in 6 years. She gently let me down saying she wasn't ready. So I've continued to treat her as I did. She even made my birthday a super fun and awesome day (in January about 2 weeks after asking her out). We've been hanging out and she's shown me how to get out of my comfort zones like skinny dipping in hotsprings and dancing to live music. It has been one of the most beautiful and fulfilling friendships I've ever had. I even went with her out of state and met some of her family (she's brought other friends as well). I'm still wildly attracted to her but I haven't let that sully our friendship. I would love nothing more than to romantically and sexually be involved with her other than to never lose this person in any way. Definitely not complaining about the friendship but I have realized that feelings for a person truly do suck and wish I could just kill the part of me that has romantic feelings.
