I met this girl and her name is Diedra, now we were on the bus heading home from school and I made a comment out of nowhere (without thinking) stating girls with the name Diedra are typically fat. Now she got pissed and I thought I made a stereotypical comment and I wasn't trying to call her fat. so what can I do cause I feel I didn't mean it in a bad way.. I legit fell in love with this girl, What should I do??

 Who knows what she thinks now. Good for apologizing,but saying Im sorry does not always get the reset button.
What to do? Go be a good friend and think before you speak next time.

Imagine if the roles were reversed.

Sorry, you made a bonehead move. Go apologize and think before you speak next time.

 You fall to your knees and tell her "I"m not worthy"
seriously... oops... sometimes my mouth runs without engaging my brain... I have ADHD and it's hard to check my mouth at the door.
You tell her that "oops I goofed" "I was talking out my ass" or something like that... "because well hey I really really LIKE you and being near you makes me nervous..."

It doesn't matter that you weren't calling her fat - it matters that you made an unthinking generalization about a whole group of people. But I'm sure she'll forgive you if you write her a letter, explaining that you understand how stupid the comment was, and that you apologize for offence caused, and that you were just nervous around her because she's so very pretty! Good luck.

 You really messed up big with that one, didn't you! Apologise, tell her everything you said was stupid, that you were really, really nervous being in her presence, that you didn't actually know what you were saying. Try and get her to laugh at your stupidity, and I'm sure that you'll win her over. Best of luck.
