Sooo I have a crush on one of my classmates and he knows it cause I like an idiot accidently told him I like him and he is cool with it now one of my good friends asked him if he knows that I like him then why doesn't he date me? And he replies saying " she is way too beautiful to date " what does he mean by this I mean he is a good friend of mine and we chat and share notes with each other as well as talk on random stuff and he also know I like him and he is cool with it
