Late night profit

I was watching a talk show last night (really late at night, like really, really late) and there was a guest on the show, a famous blogger that wrote a book about white people. He said that it’s rather typical of white males to have a female friend that they are completely in love with. He went on to say that this situation typically only ends 3 ways:

1. The guy finally confesses his love to the girl and she tells him that she doesn’t feel the same way, he feels embarrassed and stops talking to her.

2. The guy confesses and it turns out that she feels the same and they start dating. (Clearly the most optimal result)

3. The guy never comes clean, she never finds out how he feels, he continues to be miserable and she eventually finds someone else. The guy remains alone.

It was at this point that the discussion on the show became awkward since I was sitting right next to the girl that I love, my best friend and I have yet to confess my love to her. We watched the segment and I was speechless. The room became quite, I didn’t have a sarcastic remark for what he just said, because it rang so true to me. I’m not sure if she caught on, but inside I hope she did. That would really make things easier.

I guess I’m just gonna have to confess and hope for result number 2.
