Some people are so delusional, and I can't help but feel like I am too. And yes, it's about a member of the opposite sex. Wow, I feel lamer by the second.

So there's this guy I like. Cute, older, talented, and intelligent. In other words, perfect. And I think there's a slight chance that he's interested in me. The problem is, I feel like I can't move in on him at all because one of my best friends likes him. I've liked him probably longer than she has, and she's kind of not good at serious relationships (she prefers casual ******** rolleyes ) I just haven't said anything, becuase I never feel confident in declaring my intentions/attraction for a guy. The other problem is my overwhelming lack of confidence. I consider this friend of mine to be prettier than I am, and even though she doesn't have the greatest reputation, I'm afraid if she really goes after him, he'll be more interested in her. I would love to be the mature one and sit back and let her have him, but I know that she won't be good for him and will probably cheat on him after maybe a week or two. One of my other best friends, who DOESN'T know that I like the guy (unless she's figured it out) even said that she doesn't think that he would date her. I emphasize the "doesn't know" part because I know she isn't just saying it to make me feel better about the situation. Any thoughts?
