Hey guys, i know its long, but believe me its worth it. tell me what you think?
(and...the speaker is a guy)

10th Grade

As I sat there in English class, I stared at the girl next to me. she was my so called "best friend". I stared at her long, black hair, and wished she was mine. But she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. After class, she walked up to me and asked me for the notes she had missed the day before and i handed them to her. she said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I wanted to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

11th grade

The phone rang. On the other end, it was her. she was in tears, mumbling on and on about how her love had broken her heart. she asked me to come over because she didn't want to be alone, so I did. As I sat next to her on the sofa, I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine. After 2 hours, one Drew Barrymore movie, and three bags of chips, she decided to go to sleep.
she looked at me, said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I wanted to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

Senior year

The day before prom she walked to my locker. "My date is sick" she said; he's not going to go well, I didn't have a date, and in 7th grade, we made a promise that if neither of us had dates, we would go together just as "best friends". So we did.

Prom night

After everything was over, I was standing at her front door step! I stared at her as she smiled at me and stared at me with her crystal eyes. I want her to be mine, but she doesn't think of me like that, and I know it. Then she said "I had the best time, thanks!" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

Graduation Day

A day passed, then a week, then a month. Before I could blink, it was
graduation day. I watched as her perfect body floated like an angel up on stage to get her diploma. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. Before everyone went home, she came to me in her gown and hat, and cried as I hugged her. Then she lifted her head from my shoulder and said, "you're my best friend, thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

A Few Years Later

Now I sit in the pews of the church. That girl is getting married now. I watched her say "I do" and drive off to her new life, married to another guy. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn`t see me like that, and I knew it. But before she drove away, she came to me and said "you came!". she said "thanks" and kissed me on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

Funeral

Years passed, I looked down at the coffin of a girl who used to be my "best friend". At the service, they read a diary entry she had wrote in her high school years. This is what it read:
I stare at him wishing he was mine, but he doesn't notice me like that, and I know it. I want to tell him, I want him to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love him but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why. I wish he would tell me he loved me!

"I wish I did too..." I thought to my self, and I cried.

To be honest that nearly had me in tears.

Just goes to show you should express your feelings if they are that strong. Grab life by the moment because in cases like this they could feel the same way.

I've seen this before.

It really does prove how you should tell people how you feel about them.

It's logical. But hard for people who are shy and are too chicken like me. =],. heh.

Wunt say saddest story ever, makes sense tho. Endings a bit shocking though, shunt really read a dead person's diary, and why would it be that bit?!

It's not an unsual thing to do Pearson.

But it's the fact they read it at the funeral which was weird.

Hmm, shall I move/copy this to the love and relationships forum and sticky it?

I know its just a general thing but I think 1, it should be saved from expirin in the flurry o future posts, and 2, It might be useful to some people who are having the usual crush troubles and stuff.

Not really. It's more wrong doing it when someones alive, when it matters. Most secrets are revealed after people are dead, and secrets don't exist to a dead person, do they?
Also, if you think about it, they may want to just see how much that person cared for them, more than anything.
My mum read my grandmas diary when she died, its sentiment not intrusion. it would be intruding if you read it when the person was alive, as then you would not have reason to read it and it would be invading their privacy. I don't really think dead people are too fussed about privacy.

Since this topics more of a discussion about it, I've re-posted it in a closed topic in love and relationships for the reasons I mentioned before.

ive seen this before, still gave me goosebumps, guess he was shy, like me, i dont show my feeling enough :(
this proves people should tell the truth about eachother b4 it 2 late

Bob!
February 12th '06, 08:11 PM
LoL true.

And yes I admit I'm the same, if i ever did sorta jus tell anyone like that then I'd probably approach it cautiously at first to try and get a guage on what their feelins were.

Easier said than done though.

it's a good story.

i just find it stupid that they read the bit in the diary...from many years ago in her high school days..about some guy she loved..even though she clearly moved on seeing she was then married once she was dead...

I must be a douchebag, because that really didn't effect me at all.

Isn't that a chain mail that's been floating around?

It's well written, I'll give the writer that, albeit I highly doubt it ever happened. I strongly disagree with the moral. If she is your best friend, don't touch her unless she makes it clear that she's into you too. I've had so many friends that asked out their friends, and just ended up ruining the friendship. Not one of them ever said, "Oh, I liked you too." Women are very physical specimens who don't conceal their feelings too often. If they like you, they make it clear.

thats sad, it just shows that people should share how they feel about each other, even though its hard and people are shy like me, but if you like someone go for it lol :D:D id be to shy to tell someone how i feel about them, my friend had to tell the lad id liked for ages n were still friends it took me a while to look at him again and to talk to him but were fine now lol :D:D

Nah, this thing didn't affect me because I've had it sent to my hotmail account about 10 times. They could make it a bit more believeable.

Nah. It's not touching really. Sorry.

I imagined myself standing there at her funeral as that guy, and I honestly would rather have done what he did. I personally don't see myself as relationship material, and I try to make up for that by being as good as a friend as I can, being supportive and the one you see who second-guesses themselves for the sake of others.

I would have actually been more devastated at having lost someone I would have been emotionally attached to, personally. I would have rather it would have been me mourning a close friend and saying to myself "It's a shame that I didn't have the courage to be straight with her" and learning that I am resultantly a coward, instead of losing a person who I had subsequently shared a lot of love with, and wishing that she was standing next to me than watching over me from the afterlife.

that is a sad story... but its not only sad its a great story indeed... it shows that you should tell people how you feel because later on you'll end up regretting it... although at times its really hard to tell someone how you feel about them...
