A year or two ago, I believe I came pretty close. I know, I was young, but ever since I last saw her I haven't forgotten her at all. She's always in my mind. We're not involved directly with each others lives anymore, but she has stayed in my heart a long time. I don't want to be an elitist, but even then I noticed a certain sense of maturity in both of us.
I never had the balls to tell her how I felt, but seeing how I was learning to hate my old best friend that I had known since kindergarten at the time, she was my best friend for the rest of that entire school year after we started talking. I thought about her almost all the time.
There's a lot of regret in there. Looking back I can tell she felt something for me but at the time I was too stupid to recognize it. That summer she moved and I haven't seen her since.
The funny thing is, a good friend of mine turns out to have known her, and he's offered to let me talk to her over his Facebook, but I haven't done it yet. Maybe I'm just afraid. :c
