So there is a girl who goes to my high school who I really like. She is funny, energetic and nice to be around, she actually makes me feel normal (not by comparison). I have normal conversations with her, and heck even my hyper sensitivity to noise seems slightly reduced. The thing is, she is dating another person. I don't know what to do, there are other girls who I could see myself going out with due to similar interests but none of them really compare. I've had a crush on her for almost 4 years and she most definitely knows I like her due to my sister telling her. I have know idea what to do.

What to do about her? Nothing. She's dating someone else, and she knows you like her. I can't even think of anything you could do let alone should do.

I guess the only thing I can say is just let things play out. Be careful with what you say, do, and decide. Remember, these situations can get real ugly, and real fast. Believe me.

I'd say regardless, surround yourself with as much company, and that's absolutely the best thing you can do.

Otherwise, I also don't know what to say.

Have you asked her?
Does she she only want exclusive relationships? Do you?

Thanks I think I'll take your advise.

Although I don't want to get your hopes up at all, the absolute worse thing you can do is treat this like a Schrodinger's cat-like scenario. The reason: because without honesty or truth, you won't get a lot of closure. Even though she probably doesn't have those kinds of feelings for you, it's still a good idea to have something paved ahead.

But take my word before: you'll want healthy, healthy relationships.

Let it go, severe those feelings, and I mean actually do it don't just pretend. Remain friends if you wish, just don't get to personal.
If you even could get her to drop the other guy and choose you, then what. She suddenly becomes capable of dropping someone if she sees someone better. I personally prefer loyalty. I'd also feel like s**t for breaking up their relationship.
Do to others what you'd want them to do to you.

I had no intention of breaking them up, I'm not that selfish, I know that a relationship is two way and that it would be wrong to put someone through that for my own needs.

I know that feeling all too well myself. Sounds like you have your answer

ok I don't know how to close a post but I'm just saying that it is no longer relevant as she broke up with him for..... I don't know why but she did so good for me I guess.
