coz if direct, den if the gerl didnt like him, only treat him as
gd fren, den v pai seh ma....
if indirect would be better, because u will see the gerl's reaction
towards wad u said. if she likes u n she noes dat u liked someone
else, mos probably she might "give up". if she doesnt like u and
only treat u as a gd fren, den u wont see a much change in
attitude. though any combination is still possible.
