I'm sure these topics pop up here all the time. I don't see myself as completely void of confidence. I am overweight but I'm told I'm funny, have a great personality, and that I'm fun to be with.

To dispense with the pleasantries, I like this girl. We developed a friendship online and through texting this summer while I away at an internship. I have had a crush on her since math class last semester, so I told her I liked her a couple months ago and she said no...she had just gotten out of a long relationship and couldn't comment on it at the moment. I was confused as she had been given me tons and tons of signs but thats fine...I'm probably stuck in the "friendship zone" but whatever. I dig talking to her.

I've still harbored a crush on her but kept it out of my mind. I've noticed I started to distance myself a little bit and acted a little more nonchalant...not on purpose though. Anyway last week, I didn't hear her text me at our school's football game and when I saw I missed 5 messages, 3 saying the same thing (can't tell if it was sent acidentally or what since the times were 10 and 15 minutes apart) and that she was sad and disappointed I hadn't answered. She had never sent anything remotely like that before so it was baffling.

One night she had said her friend was trying to take the phone away because her friend was afraid she would say something she'd regret after she had taken a couple sleeping pills before bed. It may be nothing but enough to raise suspicion. She came over to watch a movie the other night. We hadn't really spent that much time together in person so it was a tad awkward, my feet and hands couldn't stop sweating but I feel like I was laid back and not acting weird. She stayed huddled up in the corner of the couch. I was getting the feeling she was either nervous, uncomfortable, or didn't want to be here. She left after the movie was over and we had talked for like 5 minutes to finish a paper. I can't tell whats going on and I think that fact that I've never had a girlfriend despite a few chances may be clouding my judgement.

I know sh*t usually develops out of friendships...do I even have a chance or am I just fooling myself?
