I think I'm going to cry, I'm so happy right now.
I'll set up the situation:
I like this one girl. I like her quite a bit. We're friends, and I didn't want to ruin friendship, so I let my feelings just lay low.
Then I told another friend, one day when he was prodding me about something along those lines. He got into working how to set us up. I was adamantly against that, but he wouldn't hear of it.
So, I decided to let her know that he was going to try, and let her know why. I said quite adamantly I just want to be friends, and I wished I hadn't told him and all that stuff.
She tells me she's very flattered, and she would love to remain friends right now (adding with a wink, that I wasn't half bad either.)
Now this happened a month back or so. Lately, I've been nervous..because...well....
She lives in Cinicinatti, I live in St. Louis. I see her maybe one week in the summer, and a weekend here and there throughout (though we stay in touch email-wise). I haven't known her long, either. We only met last year (she gave me the first hug I ever had that was outside the family)...and didn't get to start knowing her well until this past June. (I've seen her once since that week in June, and will see her at least once more this year). Now, this happens to be the first girl I've ever liked, ever had a crush on, and so forth. Never had a g/f, never been kissed, etc.
I've fallen completely for her.
Now getting back to why I was nervous. In my selection of colleges, the one that stood out the most and seemed like the best one for me, happened to be University of Cincinatti.
Yui (well, her real name is Sarah, but she prefers Yui) lives in Cinci.
She is not the reason I picked UC. But I was nervous about telling her.
If I told her, after just mentioning how I liked her so much, I was afraid she'd think I was a creepy psycho stalker guy.
Well, I told her. I got a response back that was something along the lines of "cool. If you choose UC, that's great, and I know it's not just because of me" (in all honesty, she played like a...2% role in my decision).
And things are still great between us.
This is wonderful.

It's just my life.
