There is this girl I like. She sits next to me in a class. We have similar backrounds. I talk to her intermittently about things other than school. I was gonna tell her how I felt, but a friend of mine tried to help me out and she said that she doesn't do the relationship thing(dating I guess). I not sure that she's for real 'cause that friend of mine can't be taken seriously sometimes. I think she doesnt believe I like her. And her birthday just passed on the 11th. I thought that I could use that as an opportunityand buy her a gift , but I never got around to it and I thought I might come accross as too serious. I'm kinda shy, so I can't just come up to her and tell her how I feel, like some other guys can. I'm not sure if she feels the same way 'bout me. As u can see, I really need help. THX
