Hmmm…I struggle with this too, I have a crush on someone but after I admitted it they said they didn’t really like anyone at the moment. I still embrace it, as a friendship, but it’s important to remember that it’s by always going to work in your favor. Sometimes you just have to go with friends. But, you never know. After you and your crush get to know eachother a little more, it might spark.
Good luck friend! :)
