We are just friends aren't we?

I am a bit gutted today, feeling a little discouraged.

The last three girls I have been interested in have all said that I am good to talk to, they want to share what is going on for them but all of them just want to be friends.

What I find hard is how do you tell when someone wants to be more than friends? I am getting sick of setting myself up for a fall. But do I go to the other extreme and ignore any chances that come along because I don't want to be hurt? Girls I have talked to say that they generally wait for the guy to initiate a relationship but I am starting to wonder if it is worth taking the risk.

My biggest fear is that I will be 40 and still single. This thought terrifies me. It drives me to take these risks.

Haha I know this sucks but I will set myself up again, there will be another Girl that will come along that I will want to get to know better, and it will probably end up the same way.

I wonder what God is thinking when he watches me go through all of this?
