Sadly, my latest friendzone/oneitis/unrequited love whatever you want to call it is a female teacher the same age as me, who of course, already has a BF.
Well Romeo, what are you waiting for? As the great Beyonce pointed out, if he likes her he should put the ring on her. If she has no ring, then what are you waiting for? Sweep her off her feet, show her how much more awesome you are than her boyfriend, let them break up, and then make your move.
I say this like the idealistic I still am, and I have done the steps above (or tried to) before. The results have never been pretty.
Take my advice with a few POUNDS of salt.
Believe me, I'd like to sweep her off her feet. And I agree, put a ring on her finger already, and put me out of my misery. At least then I'd know she's totally out of bounds.
