WHY can't I SEND it?!?

Bear with me, this is a LONG question. My guy friend who I've liked for a while now keeps telling me about all these girls he likes... I've written this email so many times but I can't send it! WHY? I'm afraid that if I end the friendship, my heart will stay broken forever and he'll just move on and never care that I'm not in his life anymore. What should I do? This is the email...

Don't go out with her! You barely know her! You really need to get with someone you know well... someone you get along with... someone who has always been there for you...

Look, why don't you GROW UP?! These girls aren't real, they're fantasies! You don't really know them! Why are you so reluctant to be with someone you might actually WORK with?!??!

Update:

What exactly is wrong with me? That's all I want to know. Is it just because I'm not pretty? Is that why you could never see me "that" way? Is it because I liked you first? Do I have some major personality flaw I haven't noticed? Help me out here, I'm going nuts. I've tried forgetting about you, I've tried just being friends. I'm doing my best, but guess what? IT ISN'T WORKING. I think there's only way for me to get over you- I have to stop talking to you completely. I'm sorry. I'm sorry I couldn't be what you had in mind. And I'm sorry you're so closed minded that you can't see past appearances. I'm sorry it has to be this way. But you break my heart, (insert his name here). I can't keep on like this!

Goodbye.

    Ok, I think I would send the email but please be prepared for the answer you may receive from him. YOU have to realize that you may not get the answer you are looking for. If this is the case, you really do need to move on. YOU deserve someone in your life that loves you as much as you love them. And honey, I'm here to tell you, broken hearts do mend, you won't think so in the beginning, but they mend. I've been there and I just knew I would die, guess what??? I didn't and now when I look back on it, he wasn't worth the pain I went thru. Men don't seem to be able to hear or listen real well. YOU could tell him you are the best for him but until he realizes it, there is no way you can convince him. Good luck to ya....

    Ok drama queen, calm down. First of all, dont go playing the victim saying "what's wrong with me?" He likes you as a friend, so there's nothing wrong with you.

    And you sound so angry. "why dont you GROW UP?" "Dont go out with her!" You're his friend, so be one. He obviously doesnt know how you feel, and so he's telling you he likes these girls because he trusts you! So be honored!

    Now I'm sure you're saying to yourself while reading my answer "Well I want him to know I like him!"

    Ok, tell him. Your e-mail should read something like this, "That's cool you like those other girls, but I was thinking maybe you and I could go out sometime. I think you're a really cool guy and I like you. So what do you say? Want to go out on a date sometime? It's ok if you dont, I really like you as a friend too, but I figure you and I are such friends, maybe there's something there? Let me know what you think. And it's ok either way, trust me! I still want to be friends with you."

    See? Just keep it cool and calm. In your other e-mail you just sound so angry and hateful. You dont hate him do you? And like I said before you're his friend, he trusts you. Don't break it! To be honest, and not to sound too mean I think you're the one that needs to grow up. Listen, you're in high school or middle school right? There will be other guy friends in your life, dont get too caught up in the drama. If he decides to be rude to you and throw away your friendship, then he's not for you! Believe me, there will be others. It's not the end of the world! Enjoy life while you're young! Good Luck!
