...and I have a bad feeling about it. 
When I lived in LA, I worked as an extra on TV for a month or so in between temp jobs. I had a blast! It's just a shame I can't live on the pay (it's basically minimum wage for 8 hours, but the overtime is good and the catering can be great).
I was an extra on an Entourage episode titled, "Return of the King." During lunch, I struck up a conversation with this girl. She seemed nice. In between setups, we talked and I found out we had some common interests. She's also a big geek and an anime fan (every girl I've ever liked has been into anime - I don't get it!). She's also attractive, with some good curves (she's not some starving model).
We went out a few times, mostly to the movies and to eat. I hung out at her place a few times; I refused to invite her over to my place (messy roommates). I mentioned to her that I liked her and she sort of sheepishly said she didn't like me like that and that she was interested in someone else (she didn't elaborate and I have no reason to believe she's seen this person in the few years since I moved back to Florida).
She ended up moving back to Texas (she's Persian but considers Texas her home). We kept in touch and I decided to fly to Dallas to see her over this 4th of July weekend. I need a vacation anyway and it'd be nice to go to Texas and actually leave the airport!
I'm going to tell her how I feel and I'm going to go out on a limb and say she feels the same way. Why do I think that? She calls me. I'm usually oblivious to this but she has the most subtle flirtatious manner in her voice. Whenever she says "Bye, Scott" I can tell from her voice she's smiling. I don't think she's trying to be manipulative; I really think she doesn't know what effect her phone calls have. If you're a girl and you know this guy likes you, would you continue to call him and ask him for advice, pay him compliments, say things like "You'll fly to Dallas and we'll watch movies and I'll show you around!", etc.?
Or have I officially been banished to the dreaded "friend zone"? Well, guess what... as much as I'd like to keep her around, the last thing I need is another platonic female friend. So when I say I have a bad feeling about this weekend, it means this: if she in fact has NO romantic feelings for me, I'm really tempted to terminate the friendship. I don't want to leave her in tears but what's the point?
