>>280026663 (OP)If you have this problem it's your own fault for being a spineless simp loser and I don't have sympathy for it.
If you have a crush on a girl and it doesn't work out, you make a clean break and move on with your life. "Okay" is not the correct response to "We can still be friends". You don't have to be rude or cruel about it. You just tell her that being friends is not enough for you and if it's not going to work out then you should both go your separate ways.
