She has a crush, should I still date her?
So, there I was, thinking I was finally hitting it off with Emily at this new rooftop bar downtown. Just as I was about to ask her out, she casually drops, "I actually have a crush on someone else." Ouch. But instead of backing off, I decided to play it cool and become her friend, hoping maybe she'd see how awesome I am.
We started hanging out more—coffee runs, late-night talks, even helping her move her couch (which, by the way, was a nightmare). But sometimes, her constant talk about her crush made me want to disappear. There were moments when I felt invisible, just the "nice guy" in the background. Ever been there?
Looking back, I wonder if I was just torturing myself. Have you ever tried to win someone over who was into someone else? Did you stick around as a friend, or did you bail? Tell me your story—I need to know I'm not the only one who’s been through this emotional rollercoaster. 😅
