This guy has been trying to date me for a good three years now. We met on the school bus Sophomore year of high school and ever since then he has been trying to date me. He used to walk me home everyday from the bus stop to make sure I got home okay.

I have seen this boy's heart get crushed when I told him about another guy I was talking to. He would become distant and then eventually I would realize that the other guy was not what I had expected him to be. He would always be there for me when I needed him most and when he needed me, I would be there for him too.

Let us start from the beginning: I have never had feelings for this guy, but no guy has ever put so much effort into me. He would walk me home from the bus stop, buy me food, buy me flowers, teddy bears, cards--anything I could ever want. I love waking up in the mornings to the random Reese's cups on my front porch.

Our story is almost like one of a fairy tale. You treat me like a princess and make sure that I am always okay no matter what time of day. You come over just to hangout with me and play Scrabble or even UNO and you would never try anything. I know you are waiting on the day when I tell you that I have caught feelings for you. My whole family believes that we are going to get married because that is usually how this stuff goes. You make me so happy without even trying but I just cannot date you. Why you ask? Because you sir, deserve a girl who will treat you like a prince and has time to spend with you. Someone who is not always busy or working.

You deserve a trophy for how much time you have spent trying to win my heart when all I do is reject it. You are truly a really great guy and I hope one day that I might realize that I belong with you, but until then maybe you should try dazzling some other girl for awhile. You keep telling me that I am the only girl you want to be with, but then I see you with other girls and it makes me think otherwise.

If you do not end up with me, I hope you end up with a girl that is twice as great as me and you put all of your effort into her. I see you slow down while you drive past my house and you always text me "Go to bed, love". One day, I am going to miss that when we start our own separate lives and move away from each other.

My advice to you is to not give up on me. I just need some time to figure out that you are indeed the best guy for me. You would give me anything I would need and at the same time give me my freedom to do what I want to do. So keep chasing me buddy and never give up. I do not think I can handle seeing you with another girl.
