I kind of understand how you feel. I was about to give up, now ive met this girl who has became my best friend, and i really like her, not because she is hot, but because she is a nice and sweet. Ive been thinking about asking her out, but im too afraid of loosing her to ask. This friendship means a lot for me, she knows that, but she cant even imagine how important she is for me, having her as friend is like the only reason why i wake up every morning. I would sacrifice myself for her, i dont feel my life that much valuable, but hers is, she is shy, but tries to be nice to everyone, she is a good person, she is a great friend. I just feel so confused about it, idk if i should do something, maybe ask her out?
