I don't know. Maybe I should talk to him about this and find out what's going on. I wonder if he has trust issues, because he could be wondering if I have a deeper motive or something. Don't get me wrong. I am still very interested in him, and it's not like I haven't tried to get rid of these feelings. I've asked God several times to take these feelings away. I mean, He's done that when I've been interested in my friends Don and Jared. I don't understand why He wouldn't do the same in this situation, if Richard's not the one for me.
I would rather have Richard as a friend than not have him at all. But it's not easy to get to know someone when the only time you talk to him is for a few minutes after church. That's why I'm hoping he'll attend my post-birthday party this Saturday, because that will be a great opportunity for me to get to know him in a setting that isn't uncomfortable.
Please pray about this, guys. I'm obviously pretty frustrated and at my wit's end.
