In case you were wondering, asking a 3rd party if someone can help you do something is not the same as asking them yourself.
So therefore you cant say "well i asked him, but he was too busy helping someone else u.u". Instead you should say "i failed to ask like a Grown Adult and my Sad Looks and subtle hints do not equal using my words and it is my fault and maybe if I look at it closely, if I treated you like a friend and not a guy I use when I need something maybe you might have offered. All because im incapable of being a Grown Adult and instead prefer to Avoid Everything until the Last Minute and blame others instead of myself. Maybe i should self refelct and improve myself so I dont have this happen in future. My bad."
But hey, thats just a thought.
