I had a crush on my best male friend for as long
as I'd known him. As time went on and we got to know each other
better, I found myself falling in love with him, but much to my
frustration, our relationship never developed beyond friendship.
Unwilling to risk losing such a good friend, I refused to do anything
to change that.

A couple of weeks before Valentine's Day, he came
to me with a dilemma.
"I really, really like this girl." He said.
"A lot. Do you think I should send her a Valentine's
Day card?"
My heart sank, but I tried not to show it. I was stunned.
I'd never heard him mention another girl, especially
one he liked so much.
"Do you think she likes you?" I asked him,
trying to act nonchalant and involved in the problem.
"I'm not sure." he replied.
"I think so. Maybe"
"Does she have a boyfriend?" was my next
question.
Secretly, I was thinking, 'Please, please let her
have a boyfriend'.
"No."
"Oh."
So much for that idea.
"In that case, go for it. It sounds pretty promising
and it's a good way to find out if she likes you.
Besides, what girl could resist you?"
I said it as a joke but the matter of fact is, I really
did believe that. He blushed and his cheeks turned
bright red. It was so cute.
I tried to press him for more information about his mystery woman,
but he was very evasive and basically refused to tell me anything.
He's really good at avoiding things. Hence, I left, none the wiser
and nursing a broken heart.

In the ensuing weeks, I tried to find out anything I could about
this girl he liked. I questioned all our mutual friends but they
knew nothing. Meanwhile, he came to me several times for advice.
"Should I get her flowers?"
"Yes, I don't know any girl who doesn't like to receive flowers."
"What kind should I get?"
"That depends."
"On what?"
"On what kind of flowers she likes and how much money you're
willing to spend."
"I'm not worried about the money."
This was very unusual. He was usually so tight with money that
he was the kind of person who would be willing to reuse foil and
not for environmental reasons.
