Should I do it?

So there's a girl at school that I kinda like, and every time I listen to "Hey Soul Sister" by Train I think of her :D Now, she's gonna leave to college in a few weeks and probably never come back, so I really don't want to ruin our friendship by going "hey I love you" just before she leaves, specially because the other day she said explicitly that she did not want any romantic relationships for now. But if I don't kinda show her how I feel, I may regret it forever :( So I was thinking of singing Hey Soul Sister to her, and going like "even if you leave you'll still be one of my best friends!!" but I'm scared that that song may be too much about "I love you and I never wanna lose you dammit!" rather than the "Thanks for everything, I'll never forget you :D Hope you do well abroad!" that I'm looking for.

What am I supposed to dooo xD

EDIT: this is the song I mean:
Train - Hey Soul Sister

Okay, how bad/decent are you at singing? This could possibly be really fucking cheesy if you do it bad. Just say what you're feeling, dude. Tell her how you feel and it'll be fine if she's into you. If not, how bad could it be?
 
Well I'm decent at the most xD and she isn't probably into me, I mean when she hugs me and talks to me and stuff I feel awesome and I "feel butterflies in my stomach" (not sure if people in the US use that expression, here we do xD) but she's like that with lots of people, not just me, so :'( That's why I'm looking for a not-so-romantic-but-still-cute song, not necessarily to sing it but to at least dedicate it to her
 
Singing someone elses song for her really doesn't have much of an effect. It'd probably just be awkward. Especially singing to a girl about to go to college.

I'd suggest a more subtle approach of just keeping in contact with her. That has a much less chance of failing outright.
 
Yeah I guess that's the logilal thing to do... but just keeping in contact will probably mean chatting on MSN or facebook every now and then until we never speak with each other :( I just really wanna tell her what I feel, but if I do it'll be just weird.

Specially because if something DID happen, it just wouldn't work. Sure, we like the same stuff and I love being with her, but I can't say she loves being with me... plus even though I'm taller than her I'm still younger and girls usually like older dudes so >_>

I hate it when the answer to a problem is just "you're screwed there's nothing to do" :glare:

Basically, it's either let the relationship as friends die due to lack of communication. Or, just tell her how you feel. Honestly, what do you have to lose at this point just being outright with it?
 
Either let her know how you feel about her, and you have the potential to be rejected...or you will live your entire life never knowing what would have happened if you actually said what was on your mind.

But seriously, I would pick a different song.

I would personally go with "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley. Everything anybody could ever want to say to another human is right there.
 
Yeah, I thought that since we'll neer meet again I have nothing to lose. But if I got rejected (which will probably be the case, although I wish I was wrong) it'd brake me too bad; when I'm awake I'm always thinking about the awesome time we'd had if we were together, and when I'm sleep I dream that she never leaves and I get to love her... I don't know whch will hurt more, shutting up and regreting it forever or losing a friend and regreting it forever.

Life is usually pretty awesome, but sometimes - just sometimes - it can suck really hard...
 
You get over things that are broken faster then you get over things left unfinished.

You:
-Get rejected. It hurts for a while, and you eventually get over it and find someone else. You may not think so, but you will. It always happens.
-Don't get rejected, and you two start to date. Mission accomplished.
-Do nothing, and wonder for potentially the rest of your life if something could have happened if you'd just tried.

Never is a long time my friend. If she truly is a friend, Something like this won't kill a friendship. Go on, tell her. Maybe one day she will move back, or you'll move there, or some time you'll meet somewhere completely different, and you'll have the time of your life when you're together.

Believe me...it's much worse to think every damn day of your life of what could have been.
 
... ok let's say I tell her. Should I like, tell her one of these days, or should I invite her somewhere to get a bite just before she leaves or something and tell her?

It will mean much more if you tell her in person. If you're afraid you will never see her again, then just tell her now.
 
Tell her in person, and do it quickly. College life can be pretty wild (here in the US anyway). If she's hot, she's likely going to be hooking up with someone within the first few weeks.
 
Just one more thing, maybe it changes the situation. We've known each other for a few years now, but we've only been kinda good friends for a short while. I've been kind of into her since I met her but I've only felt like this for some time.... should I still tell her? I know its stupid but all of this really confuses me :(
 
srsly dont sing her that modern day crap, i suggest Baby I love Your Way by Peter Frampton or a classic love song, as they dont suck as much as modern love songs.

Best not to live life with regrets. Get it off of your chest as soon as possible. If she doesn't want to date you, oh well. At least you'll know how she feels and can move on.

Pffsh. He should sing Friday.
 
Yeah, I think I'll just go and say it o her face. The worst that could hapen is that she says no and I get over it eventually, and if she says yes then it'd be awesome :D
