We had fun talking, and by the end of the call I was nearly almost sure she liked me, mostly because she said she wanted to meet me. I wanted to tell her that I liked her, and when her friends handed the phone to her I sat there like an idiot, not saying anything until my heart was about to pound a hole through my chest. The dialogue was as follows (names omitted for the reasons stated earlier.)

Her: Yeah?

Me: Insert idiotic, heart-pounding pause here Do you……..do you like me?

Her: Yeah, kinda.

Me: Insert sigh of relief here Awesome. I like you, too.
