Occasionally spark—and by that I mean chemistry, attraction, arousal—can develop over time. Perhaps when you kiss this girl you’re nervous, and that anxiety douses the spark before it can ignite. So I’d suggest that you really relax before doing anything physical. It’s also crucial that when you kiss someone, it’s because you really want to—there’s an inexplicable drive compelling you to kiss—instead of doing what you think she wants, or what society dictates you should do. While it’s quite clear that you like this girl a lot, you simply may not be ready for kissing yet. It may take a while until you figure out what you truly find attractive; until you understand that, take things slow and easy.

Sin’s advice makes sense, and I’d follow it. But I’d urge you not to lead this girl on. Even though you like her as a person, if you’re really not feeling her “that way,” don’t fake it. The longer you pretend to be into her, the harder it will be to break up with her and still maintain your friendship. It’s a sticky situation, no doubt—you don’t want to insult her. Avoid saying anything remotely like the deadly, “I’m not attracted to you.” Instead, try to steer the relationship in a platonic direction—doing activities like sports or playing music (as opposed to just hanging out) and going with a group of people (instead of it being the two of you).

And China thinks it has a Great Wall! Sure, maybe you’ll get your heart broken. It will hurt like hell (emotionally, mentally, spiritually and physically) and you’ll think you’re gonna die. Except you won’t die; you’ll heal. And you’ll learn more about who you are, what you want, and human nature in general. Look at it this way: Are you at the point in your life where you want to meet the ultimate guy you’re going to be with till you’re 108 years old? Probably not. So give it a shot with the next guy who shows interest. He’s number three, right? You know what they say: Third time’s the charm!

Consider romance a delicious fruit that brings untold pleasure but also may contain poisonous pits. Since you’re smart and self-aware, you may avoid these pits. Literally, this means you may be able to steer clear of cads and also take things slowly as you get to know a guy. Rather than blow him off like a total bitch, allow him into your life like a true lady, with self-respect and the attitude that you deserve nothing but the best. Carry yourself this way— your very demeanor lets guys know that you’ll accept only noble and sensitive treatment, and you won’t attract the sort of losers who’d mess a girl up.
