Girl Problem — Page 3

Just one piffy piece of advise:

You may consider her boyfriend a moron, and he may well be a moron. But she might not think that way, so you should probably be respectful of him around her.
(A mistake I made. I called her boyfriend a midget because he was short. That isn't what I wanted to say--I wanted to call him something much more accurate and ruder. To this day I still have no idea how those two worked together. As I figured, he dumped her within a few months. His loss, of course. But even though I was right, I can't imagine how bad of an impression that must have made on *her*)

For some reason, this thread feels like a film written by PT Anderson and directed by Sophia Coppola.

I'm not going to lie to you. If she has a boyfriend, things do get complicated, as women tend to be kinda "possessive" about their boyfriends or husbands, that's the woman's nature. That's why women always try to steal another woman's man, they feel superior for doing it. Now, I've seen some real dumbasses that had some cute and intelligent girlfriends, who could be with someone better, but... go figure. So, it'll be kinda hard to beat this guy out...

I hope things do work out for the best, I really do, but no matter what happens, keep your head up and smile, as you've just experienced one of life's gifts...

If she's in college, you should probably hurry up and finish highshchool early.

This is my favourite thread right now. I'm rooting for you, Davis.

Whatever you do, don't say the following:


-Being around you again is intoxicating.
-I hate sand. It's so rough and course and irrating. Not like you. You're soft and smooth.
-If you're suffering as much as I am, please tell me!

Is such thing possible over there? Over here only a very few rare people are allowed to do so, if they notice they are too inteligent or something.

Yeah, you can finish early with the administration's blessing. There is a ton of paperwork that must be filed and meetings that need to be attended to justify why you would want to graduate early. Honestly, I don't think it's all worth the hassle.

Oh ok so it's as hard as it's here. I thought it was easy, just the matter of scheduling more classes and stuff.

The problem with scheduling more classes and whatnot is that High School has a fixed number of class periods. You could take classes instead of study halls and take summer school pretty easily, but those are really the only ways to do it. High school doesn't offer night classes and the like.

Davis, there are two pieces of information in one of your last posts which are very important.
1. She already has a boyfriend
2. You go to the same church
You shouldn't ask a girl out who already has a boyfriend. It makes the guy pissed off and he might want to hurt you. The girl will get upset and might not even want to be friends. You need to learn some patience and wait until they break up(which they eventually will, especially if he really is a jerk). You can afford to wait since you go to the same church because it is not like you will never see her again. Whenever she comes home from school, you can be there asking questions about her. People love talking about themselves. That way, she'll see you in a positive light. You can be friends for a short time and then, after they break up and time passes, you can make your move.

Over here you can not do that, at least no in the highschool I attended. They scheduled the classes for you (except for extra-curricular classes), and there was nothing you could do about it. Only in college I was able to schedule my own classes.

It's a bit of the same here. You have classes you have to take and some electives you can select. But they are pretty well fixed as to what time periods they are offered. Mostly your counselor says "you should take this at this time" and you sign off on it.

Hello, everyone. I have edited all of my posts to remove everything I’ve posted here previously (for personal reasons), but I felt as though you all might like to know how things turned out.

First, a confession: when I said I was a sophomore that looked like a senior, that wasn’t true; I’m a freshman that looks like a senior. I just wanted good advice other than, “A freshman and a senior? Forget it, man.”

Next, I’d like to take this opportunity to laugh at all you folks that said that 2 months was too short to get anywhere with someone, especially a popular pretty senior girl. Because after 1 month…


1. She called me “sweetheart”. And I know I’m not being overly optimistic when I say that she doesn’t just throw that word around. It wasn’t sarcastic; it was sincerely said.
2 She hugged me. Why? Because she was so darned happy that I got up the courage to run out of the theatre and push my way through the crowd so as to find her specifically. I said the most stupid things in my nervousness afterwards, but it didn’t matter; just the fact that I showed up was enough to make her want to hug me. She was so happy. And that was a real hug; I felt her hair on my cheek, her arms around me. I’ll never forget that feeling of my fingers in her soft dark hair. Ever.

So there you go. I’m still ecstatic about this miracle. It just goes to show that with the right attitude and God on your side, anything’s possible.

P.S. Somehow, I seriously doubt that that moron she has for a boyfriend would have appreciated this. He’s kind of an aggressive type. Oh well, he doesn’t know…he wasn’t there

Congrats Davis. Even if this is how far she'll go with you, it's a good thing by itself, you acomplished much by letting go any fear of rejection and going to her.

Embarrassment and humilation of what? What's the wrost thing that she could do? Think about it: if a girl you're not interested in came to you and asked you for a date, would you humiliate her? No of course not.

Maybe she might not be as nice I am. She might laugh at me, slap me, everyone around me might laugh at me or worse. Also, If I had the situation that Davis had, I'd be afraid that the boyfriend would come after me. (Not that I would try to ask a woman out who already had a boyfriend)

I never actually asked her out. I just flirted a bit during rehearsals and made a point of finding her to show her I actually cared about her. I suspected she liked me when she called me "sweetheart" and also when she was purposely prolonging the rehearsal (with just us two and another guy, after 10 PM at night) for some odd reason. Then came the hug.

But all this happened with remarkably little effort on my part; just more self confidence, I guess. Since she was so responsive to this in just a few days, I kick myself to think how good it could have been if I hadn't been a complete chicken and had talked to her a few months before. I guess I'm learning from experience, as they say.

Are you going to keep in touch with her while she's away at college? Who knows what can come of that.

confidence is everything, you just gotta think the worst that can happen is she will reject me. and thats it.
