Hi Everyone
I consider myself a really decent guy and get on well with everyone male and female. I have a good sense of humour and love making people laugh. I've never really wanted a very serious relationship, I've had the odd-girlfriend now and then but until recently, my feelings have totally changed.
I've been working with this girl for 6 months but she had to leave recently because there wasn't enough hours for her. In that time, we became good friends and sort of close and we're still keeping in touch. I've always been attracted to her but since she left the workplace, it hasn't been the same without her. The thing is, she means the world to me, her personality, her looks and just who she is has changed my life and restored confidence in my mind that there is better people out there than some of the girls I have gone out with in the past.
Im 23 and She is 19 and I think about her all the time and I just cant see that anyone else can be as lovely as she is.
A couple of weeks ago, she visited me and we went for a drink and had a good laugh together but I just dont have the confidence or bottle to tell her how I really feel. I don't want to destroy what we have but life is too short and I cant let someone this special go. I really don't know what to do now or how to approach the situation. I don't know how she feels and to be honest, my negativity will tell my brain that she is not interested.
At the moment, I'm feeling down and I have alot of worries in my life, but I don't see my problems clouding my mind over the feelings I have for this girl. I am the kind of person who is scared to open-up to people and talk and say how I feel. I can gamble money and take chances but I can't see to gamble in love.
Can anyone advise me on what to do/say in this situation?
Thank you
James
