Never Ending Situation, ever felt so down u cant stand back up? Options

[my_STORYTELLER]

hmm.. so i thought this place would be a good place to put my problem. The fact that not a lot of my friends or people from school read this kinda stuff... Well let me start from what happened last year. It all started when i liked this guy. Lets call him *anonymous. The way i put things is, i don't tell anyone. Well i did, but everyone thought i liked a different person. But thats a different story. I actually had a chance with this guy. But i blew it so bad. I guess i get scared to trust guys with the way i really feel. So, a couple weeks passed from that *event where i did have a chance. Like i said, i didn't tell anyone, and neither did he. So it ended up my BEST friend started liking him. so i'm like "uh oh". I just went along with it anyway. It ended up, it was ME that really hooked them up. I tried to change her mind in the beginning... but i thought that would be selfish. Towards the end of the year, when i was almost ready to move out of the place. They broke up about 2 months before that, &he went out with another girl. They broke up.. &trust me.. it was a major breakup.. since everyone love that couple so much. I found out it was ME he liked.. sucks.. that was the last day of school that i found out........

HERES MY STORY NOW
I like this guy &i only started liking him since FOREVER. well since i moved to this school at least. He caught my eye the second i saw him. I knew right away that i was gonna like him. Again, i kept it to myself without telling anyone. &yes, it is still a secret. But once again.. my friend likes him now. She doesn't know him at all. She only likes him for the looks. &he seems like the guy who isnt right for her. Should i just wait &see what happens? Or just go right up to him and tell him straight up? It just so happens i cant have a serious talk with him because we're always in class where he gets distracted by frieneds &stuff. Meaning, he's ALWAYS around people. I can't call him cuz i aint got his number.. and i dont wanna pull him away from the crowd cuz thats just weird. But should i do that? I deno... I NEED SOMEONES HELP

You know, you might just miss the chance with someone great... But maybe you should tell your friend. What if your friend gets together with the guy you like? It will hurt you, just like the last guy you liked but didn't tell him and he truly did like you.

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. "
-Albert Einstein

I think that quote is somewhat relevant to your situation because in my perspective, you're doing the same thing you did last time, yet you're expecting that things will be different; you're not telling anyone, but what you've learned from last time, he liked you but you found out too late. But now you're in that situation again but you don't know if he likes you or not.. But I bet deep down you wish he could tell you, that things will be different this time, that he'll like you and not tell you too late, and most of all, that your friend won't end up dating him. But hey, that's just what I infer from what I've read about your situation.

But see, you can't do what you did last time, you have to change it, so that it won't end up like last time. You should tell someone.. tell your friend that you did like him. It seems that it bothers you. But see, your friend might get mad at you if you told him you liked him FIRST and didn't tell her and she probably thinks you don't even notice him. And since YOU KNOW that she likes him, she might think you're just trying to take him away from her. EVEN though she's superficial and you think she's into him for the wrong reasons (surface, his looks), tell her how you feel. At least you told her first, right? She won't be as mad at you if you told her first rather than telling HIM that you like him and not telling her.
