Before I begin with the story, I must apologize to all of you who believed this blog was going to be all about SC2. This blog entry is about my life, about how much i wish I've had one yes in the past to at least offer me some comfort and confidence in my life.

So, here I am. Writing a blog in Team Liquid. Thinking about a girl. A girl who has managed to captivate all of my senses without a major input of effort. A girl who regardless her looks, has managed to steal my eyes and make them hers. A girl who has deprived me of a sense of myself. A girl who I call a dear friend. A girl who I couldn't forget.



It might be three in the morning at the time I write this blog. Yet, time does not seem to pass in my mind as I can't stop thinking about her. I am try to come together to let her know, but every time I have wanted to tell her, I lose my mind in the Curse of the Feared Failure and prevent myself from telling her how I feel.



I know I have at least some kind of influence over her. Almost every day, in fact, almost every meal we eat all the time. Regardless of what i am doing, or what she is doing, we both stop and join each other to share a meal in company of the other. I know I have some kind of control over her, as I managed to encourage her to join Team Liquid. I know she only hangs out in one thread (MLP) as she has told me so.



I know she trusts me, as she only says no when shes not hungry. I know she expects me, as she always replies to me as soon as I need her. I know she accepts me, as she is still keeping me company.



The thought of her no makes me doubt my effort. The thought of her no makes me wait in terror. The thought of the no is making me feel the terror. The thought of her no makes me shake in terror.



If she said no, our future might be none. If she said no, I could not regret this error. If she said no, we might not talk anymore.



Her friendship is what shakes me in terror. Her friendship is what makes me doubt along. Her friendship is just all I have.
She is my only friend. She is my only thought. She is my only scare. She is my only unknown.



Now time has began to elapse. My chances of are smaller each time. She says to have found her perfect match. And I might be left all alone.



I have to do it now. I have to tell her how. I have to let her know. I am who she needs now.




So I ask you now, what would you have me do? What should I tell her now, how should I not fear her no?


EVERYONE! PLEASE HELP ME NOW!!! THE CLOCK HAS NOW BEGUN! AND MY CHANCES ARE NOW DOWN!

Serious. Why would anyone troll like that?

She is not the prettiest I have liked, but she is not the worst either. If anything she is in the middle for me, and lately I have only been going for the prettiest.

Well that's a pretty bad thing to say about someone you love.
Maybe she thinks you're butt ugly and will deny you.

do it, tell her how u feel. nothing we say will change anything or how u feel. you either ask her and find out what happens, or never ask her and live with the fact that you will never know what wouldve happened.

"I see it all perfectly; there are two possible situations - one can either do this or that. My honest opinion and my friendly advice is this: do it or do not do it - you will regret both."- Søren Kierkegaard

Telling her and not telling her are equally regrettable choices, but telling her carries the possibility of something more than just friendship; not telling her carries nothing new.

The only possible fear you could reasonably have is that telling her might effect your friendship with her, but this is absurd, as a girl that would let what sounds like a wonderfully fulfilling friendship for both parties dissolve simply because you like her would not be someone worth being with in the first place.

protip: Unless you want to be friendzoned hard, don't tell her you love her right away, just say you like her. Saying you love a girl that you are currently only friends with is an assured ticket for the train to friendzone-town. It suggests to a girl that you're too clingy and emotional, which are two qualities very few women want their man to exhibit.
Human beings are literally made up of potential more than anything else.

Thank you. You have given me the confidence I need
You have removed my fear of losing our friendship
