I am in a pretty similiar situation as you, except I have been sitting through it for months. A girl and I are like best friends and she is with an asshole boy friend that she complains about constantly and I opened up and told her how i feel and everything and she said she feels the same but she continues to go out with this dickhead!! He is such an asshole to her and if I ever met him i would punch him in the face. I hate the man for treating her like that especially when I know that I care the world about her and he is a jerkoff to her.
penny....I bet that because all those *deep & thoughtful* conversations you have with her she put you in friend zone.....sometimes girl dont need all that deep shit.
Some girls are just attracted to that kind of guy...you should feel flattered that she doesn't want to hurt your friendship so she doesn't go out w/ you...I've been there, I wanted to go out w/ my bestfriend and he didn't want to hurt our friendship by going out so we didn't ...
