I talked to her all tonight, and I told her that I have a crush on her, but it's ok, since she understands me, and that I fear being completely alone and independent (but could not find me a date because her friends are all married or engaged).
She was starting to feel fear and anxiety over the upcoming tests, but I calmed her down, and learned a lot of things from here.
She herself wasn't from Vietnam, but her parents were (were "boat people" following the war due to their Catholic faith, and would have been persecuted), she is conservative even though she doesn't follow politics too much (but knows that Trump supporters are protested against and hurt, and the media tends to lie), and we told each-other about ourselves (even telling her about the Indonesian girl), and other things, and I put her in a good mood. It's still a shame that she is still taken (her boyfriend constantly berates her due to her faith and how he thinks it incompatible with science), and I am afraid that he will ask her to marry her next year.
My life must be a joke that a girl like that, I could never date. I honestly hope that her boyfriend dumps her (which is unlikely).
