Almost Girl

A girl that is ALMOST good looking, but has one physical attribute that ruins it and in turn, makes her awkwardly unattractive.
Not necessarily a But-Er-Face.
Shiela WOULD be hot if she didn't have that lazy eye and overly hairy arms. Sheila is an almost girl.

Almost Girl

An almost girl is the one who gets close—but never quite gets chosen.

She’s the maybe.
The if things were different.
The late-night talks, inside jokes, emotional intimacy… without the commitment that should’ve come with it.

She’s the girl someone leans on, confides in, flirts with, imagines a future with—but never actually steps into that future with.
Not because she wasn’t enough, but because the other person wasn’t willing, ready, or brave.

An almost girl lives in the in-between:
• too important to lose
• not important enough to claim
She wasn’t heartbroken because she’d lost him — she was heartbroken because she’d been an almost girl, close enough to matter, but never enough to be chosen.
