Why is it so hard...

What if I thought that the girl liked me, was pretty confident, but then when I told her/asked her out, and then she reacts like I'm an idiot...For some reason, I always picture the worst case scenario in my mind before getting courage up to ask a girl out, and for that reason, I've never technically done it. I'm also scared about the aftermath of it all if she said no. I honestly don't think I could handle seeing that person on a daily/regular basis, her knowing that I still probably like her, but me knowing that I have no chance. None of this has ever happened to me because I haven't allowed it to happen, which leaves me a bit desperate at his point. Because if I don't allow myself to do it, then there will be a whole lot of lonely years ahead for me. So it goes.

That's exactly how I used to be.

You just have to remember the saying, "If you don't look for a relationship in a woman first, they'll look for one in you."

Also, if you look closely, there's hidden meaning in that quote. It says woman, not girl.

I will be damned if I'm ever caught saying if I like a girl or not through straight language.
