I literally don't think I am capable of being friends with a girl without developing feelings for her. I asked one of my closest friends out before Christmas. Her response was she didn't want a relationship because things had ended badly with other guys she dated.....and basically she didn't want the same thing to happen with me.
I took that as 'she isn't interested so move on' but we've become really close friends. In hindsight I kind of knew at the time what her response was going to be. Today we met up for the first time since and I felt horribly awkward, quite bitter about the situation and really didn't want to be around her. From experience, I know how hard it is to stay friends after being rejected.
I think she is a genuinely sweet girl but being honest, there's no way I'm ever going to be satisfied as just friends. I don't want to hurt her because she is so nice but that in itself is the problem. Any advice? We are in lectures together the whole time and I don't want to carry on hating on her but really, is there anything that can make the situation better?
