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.

3 critical issues
Time
Hello, guys. I was wondering if a couple of you could help me out on a paper I need to write for school. We have to interview 5 people, one who graduated from high school during the 50’s, one that graduated in the 60’s, etc. up until interviewing someone who graduated in the 90’s. I am missing someone from the 80’s and 90’s, and I was wondering if anyone who falls into that category (and wouldn’t mind PM-ing me their name, year of graduation, and name of high school), could answer the following questions and become one of the people I will elaborate on in my paper. The only reason I need names is so that I can put you in the “works cited” page.

I think that today, the 3 most critical issues facing teenagers are:

1. Family problems
2. Drug use among classmates
3. Money shortage.

What were your 3 critical issues back when you were in high school? Were any the same? If some were the same, what types of these problems specifically existed? If there are points you don’t agree with, which ones were actually the most critical back then? Please elaborate and discuss.

If there’s anyone who graduated in the 60’s, their input would also be great; but I kind of doubt it on this particular forum.

Thanks very much for your input!

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
