Well, I have decided to do about the only thing I can think of to: I just sent an email to her putting everything plainly and in perspective and basically saying I'd like to take her out somewhere soon, but if she isn't for it I will back off.

Gruesome. Don't ever do that shit again.

Chances are, though, if you've gone for four years without something happening, nothing's going to happen. Hope for the best, expect the worst.

I haven't been doing this for four years, I was just friends with her until a month ago or so when it...changed for lack of a better word.

Then I did the quote thingy, and now a simple informal email.

Also, thanks for putting things into perspective and knocking me out of my love-sick comatose state long enough to actually do something.

Sending an email isn't a great show of confidence.

Talking to them on the phone tells that person you at least want them to hear it right then.

Talking to them in person shows you have the confidence to face up to your feelings.

I think you should call and restate your email with your voice.

That way your message might come across with more force.

I'd say drop it if you've already sent the email. If you haven't, drop it anyway. You've made your point. Many times, apparently. There's not much else you can do. Just sit back and enjoy the show. If you really loved her, you'd be happy as her friend. Believe me.

At the rate you're going, it sounds like you're going to push her away entirely. Four years is too much to ruin over a month of whateverthefuck.

as long as he doesn't turn psycho a four year relationship will probably heal itself up, though it'd be diffrent than it was before.

Right now, if I was in your shoes, I'd go up to her and say something around the lines of "Let me take you on a date on friday" or and if she says no "come on, it'll be fun" then if she says no after that let it go. I'd do it before she says anything about the e-mail, and brush it off as "bah, don't worry about that thing" if she mentions it. I'd say it with a smile and with a positive vibe. I might not call it a date, becuase something would be expected to happen. If i saw an oppertunity i'd take it, and if she felt uncomfortable, i'd deal with it straight out then to get it out of the way. The relationship would be weird for a few weeks (or months depending on how ackward things were at the time in the worst scenario) but I'd just do it or not.

More importantly though, I wouldn't take diadem's advice or anyone else's on a message board. I'd just do it.

Curiously being in love is the worst possible predisposition for getting a girl, messes with your head too much. Try someone from the 'sure, why not?'-category, much easier to relax and pretend if you don't obsess over whomever you're talking to.
Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

ya'll done fucked this one up proper gomer.

Here's my three step solution!

1) Masturbate. You thing better without a full load of baby-batter fucking with things. It lets you see what you feel instead of just what you feel like fucking.

2) Realize that there are a LOT of women out there and that a four-year friendship is tough to find.

3) Wait a week. If she doesn't show interest, move on. There are plenty of other bitches to chase after.

In my opinion... If she thinks that way, then it's going to be that way. If you get back together, it's most likely going to end again. I know it's hard to lose someone you've fallen in love with, but things need to move on.

you notice that relationship advice from single people and coupled people always seem to be different. i'm currently single, I realized my advice would have probably been much different when wasn't. that's probably one of the reasons i stopped listening to people (other those I won't go into here) - their advice is biased against their own lives.

plus, when you find someone you are compatible with, you usaly don't need it.

Seriously dude, drop it with her. Trust me, shit ain't gonna happen. Go for one of those chicks in the "sure why not" category.

Worked for me last time. She was a good lay too. Admittedly we only stayed together for like 4 months or something like that, but still. Less pain that way.

And if you don't drop it, I won't be supprised if you end up facing charges or something. Some of the shit you've done would really freak someone out. Especially considering you'll only get worse if you don't just let it go.

Well, I'm satisfied. By the way, I think some of you are thinking a little too much into what I've said, I'm not stalking her or anything like that cmon! But anyway, here is what I just recieved:

I'm glad that you looked at the maturity aspect of relationships before you acted on anyone's advice. Yeah, advice from friends usually screws things up, cuz everyone acts differently, y'know?
Umm...I'm not sure how I feel about the dinner & movies thing. Yeah, I am still a little hung up over Eric, but, Junior year is just a crappy year overall to start dating, y'know...But, I would be okay with us could hanging out more if that's what u want..But, I'm not much for dating in the first place. Besides, I still get the feeling that your feelings for me are somewhat crush-like...I've known you for 3 years, and you've only developed a crush on me over the last couple weeks? Right now, I'm not too interested in relationships to start with, I hoe you understand, but I sympathize with you, thanx for telling me about this...hope u have a good day...

Again, I had hoped for less, wanted more, and came out satisfied.

"This is weird. I'm most comfortable with us being friends, and would like to remain so more than I would like to be the object of your affections."

There should be more than enough hints in there to let you know she doesn't want to get into that right now. It's nice that she's putting it diplomatically, but I know more than enough people who miss these signals. So, some hints - don't treat her differently now that she knows you're interested. If you pursue her, it'll push her away more. She sounds like she'll make it rather clear if and when she actually wants a relationship.

Oh, and it looks like you committed a big faux pas in timing... just for reference, NEVER try to initiate a serious relationship with someone who has other romantic ties. Relationships in those instances just HAPPEN - they are not built.

Not trying to be cruel or anything. Just some observations, based on what I've seen happen with other people/myself.
