Theres this girl...
 

hey, whats up? I havent been around here in a while, and i have some time so i figure while i can contribute here i may as well lay some of my problems on some other people=p Iknow this sounds like a thousand other stories, but ok anyway, heres my situation: Theres this girl(famous opening lines) who ive known for about 2 years now, i met her when i wasa freshman in hischool, andnow wer both sophomores. My 9th grade year i knew her, knew she was a nice girl, but i gave no second thought to it since there were so many new people, and most of my classes with her wer big and i didnt really know her. Now this year, ive had an almost identical schedule to her in many real small classes, so needless to say ive gotto know her alot better. Shed be nice to me, wed talk, flirt , little things etc and again, i thought nothing of it, it was just "oh cool another friend". Now ive lost track of time, and it crept up on me so slowly im not really sure when i started to like her in this way, and again i wasnt really paying attention. Weve become really good friends by now, we talk alot, and in every class i have with her ill spend most of the time around her talkin etc. I didnt really realise what i was in for untill spring break, the 10(?) days without her were really hard on me, and she was on vacation so i couldnt even text her. After this i know how much i really do like her, and i cant imagine summer with out her every day! She is really nice to me and we flirt right? BUT shes a very nice person, and acts very friendly to everyone so im having trouble telling if im getting any special attention. If i were to judge by what i see(and i dont see nearly all), i am treated differently than how she does otehr people; shell write me litle notes or spend the whole busride pokin me, or sleep on my shoulder sometimes. But shes in no hurry to see me out of school, i dont know if shes busy or what but its hard to set anything up. I havent let her know directly how i feel because of the normal reasons, im afraid of her answer, and what itl do to the great friendship we have now if she knows the truth and doesnt feel the same way. Yet i realise it probably will go no where if i dont tell her. I odnt have much experience in this matter, So basically im lost, and a big coward lol. What should i do? anyones and everyones opinion is asked for(especialy you girls reading this), though im sure what alot of them may be. Let me know if you need any more info. Yeah i know, this one is getting so old by now but im depserate. Sorry for the long ass post, and for releasing my problems on the rest of the world once again! Thanks.

Please, use line breaks and correct the typos :(

Hmmm. Seems to me you two have a somewhat mutual understanding of a sorts. Tell her and you might shock her. As your are still both pretty young I'de say just let it ride.. That way you can be sure of your feelings for the girl. and she could do the same.

Damn this is so sappy I can't beleive I posted here..

You're 22? Ask her out for a drink, or if that's not your style, to go get a bite to eat some place. It should be dead week and finals week right around now for you, ask her to go somewhere to celebrate getting done with another semester and see what develops.

My God, that hurt my eyes.

As for the advice, just ask her to go out with you sometime one-on-one and get to know her a lot more. Cinema, maybe? Then a friendly, casual meal and talk about the film then gradually move on to other topics. Try and swing it towards romance and then just casually ask what she'd feel like if you asked her out. See what she says.

try and make a romantic gesture. put flowers by her locker stuff like that. try and get her to know that you really feel for her and see how she responds.

Never ever try this.
this will only make her feel stalked and just extremely nervous.

just plainly and simply ask her out.

no, im 16, sophomore in highschool like i said in that big jumble of words. lol cant blame u for not finding it.

yeah, sorry about that.



i know its pathetic, but thanks for the replies guys, ill be processing for a while...

Silly me, I glanced at your age in your profile and saw '22,' so I assumed you were talking about being a college sophomore, even though the age didn't quite fit.

Im having a similiar problem, there's this chick i really like, and when im alone she's all i think about, and i think she likes me too, but i cant tell either, lately we've becoming real good freinds, talking all the time and etc. and just recently she's been inviting me to hang out, which i would gladly do, but whenever she asks im unavailaable, and she's been putting up msn names like :

Love from the heart isnt meant to stay, but love isnt love until it's given away.

and i cant figure out if she means me? Because she just recently been putting those up since she started inviting me over, but i cant be sure if she means someone else? or maybe even nobody at all. (If Anybody's got any advice for me, please PM because i dont want to be stealing picards thread)

But my advice to you picard, is what ive been following all along, just let it ride for alittle longer, and when your more sure, go and ask her out.
