I Should Really Try to Regain Normal Breathing...

OHMYGOSH.
He emailed me back.
"No, i don't mind going over it. So let me start from the top. A couple of years ago I was trying to solve my girl problems alone. That failed miserably. So then one of my friends told me that Emily liked me so I figured, hey, that's awesome. But then he started to get on my nerves about asking her out. So, to shut him up, I did. She didn't talk to me for about a year after that. Needless to say, I haven't gotten girl advice from him since. Then this year another one of my friends was reading my texts and aid that Sophia liked me. Since i trusted him more than the other friend, (and I've liked her since I've met her) I asked her out. And as you know that did work out. And yet again another one of my friends was readin' my email( I have very nosy friends) and said that you liked me, so I wanted to see. The more that i think about it, it's pretty rude to use people in all this trusting my friends thing. But yeah, So I asked you if you liked me (I'm a curious person). Now he's off my ask for advice list.
On to the other part of your question. Yeah I did like you a bit but that's fine if you said no, but if you had said yes I have no freakin' clue what I would have done. Quite frankly I don't have time for stuff like that in my life right now. With school and very thing else a girlfriend would drive me insane. But that's why my life would have been hard if you said yes. I would have definitely try to move every thing out of the way for you but then my grades would start to slip and that is bad, but hopes this answers your question."
OHMYGOSH.
Me:
"Wow. That's...about all I can say right now.
Okay, I suppose I owe you a bit of an explanation myself. Ah, but how about we don't tell anyone about this little story, so I can avoid getting eaten by several people?
Last year, Emily decided that you and I would make the "perfect couple", and has been nagging me about it ever since. Lisa, joined in this year.
At first, it was just kinda weird, since I hardly knew you last year. But this year, we became friends, and I realized that I really enjoyed being around you. I guess you kind of caught me by surprise today. I've thought about it all day, and I really wish I had said something different. I dunno what, though.
See, it's a bit tough when you have a bunch of people trying to push you together with someone. It's hard to tell whether you would have liked them regardless of that.
But...I really do think that I still would.
I really hope that that made any sense. I guess...I got nervous. Or something. I dunno. My mouth just starts moving under pressure, which often gets me in trouble.
To sum it up, yes, I like you, sorry I said I didn't, I totally understand how having a girlfriend would be very difficult, and yes, you did answer my questions.
Guess I'll see you tomorrow. I can't believe I just said all that over email.
Right then. I'm gonna go...try to breath normally. Haha. This was...a heck of a lot of a surprise, I guess."

Trying...not...to...faint...

Dizzy,
