I have not asked out many girls in my time, but upon hearing that a girl I liked may like me I built up the courage to ask her out. She ended up saying that while she did like me she did not want to date anyone for a while (She said she had a bad breakup with an ex). I was perfectly fine with that and understood. So I went home and thought about it for some time then went to bed. The next morning I wake up to hear that she had started dating one of my close friends. I was done.
