Why is it that everytime I find someone I'm interested in I seem to become a friend instead of more.

In all honesty, I understand sometimes people just aren't interested. But sometimes if you enjoy being around someone those feelings turn into more without you even knowing it's happening. I just feel like I can't talk to her about it because she doesn't feel that way, at least not right now. I miss feeling close to someone and a part of a family. I want nothing more than to hold her hand and just feel like I'm connecting.
