@DrBeatle, I can imagine it would be stressful but it will all turn out fine once you’ll be nicely settled. 

I am someone who moves around the world quite a lot. So I know what it feels like (well not from the adults’ point of view) It can be quite hard to move from school to school and from place to place. I really had to get used to it, but eventually you will.

I wish you the best of luck!

Thanks! We are planning this (as much as we can) as our last move for a long time…we can finally settle, buy a house in a few years, the kids can all go to school and grow up, etc. I’m sure it’ll work, it’s just a lot of stress getting there!

@Zig, my mom’s nickname among her brothers, sister, and cousins is Bunny. So your picture is very appropriate.

@DrBeatle, hang in there. One day very soon you will be feeling like this

I’m sorry, I do not know which icon I put it, if you have a more appropriate …
That there was a work of English at my school. We had to choose a song from The Beatles and interpret it, though it was a competition, I helped all gruposs to choose your music, and gave some ideas. But obviously, my group, along with my friends, was what won first place. I am the blue wig (well, I do not look good in a wig). Hope you enjoy!

If you do much canning, tomatoes are a real pain but they’re worth it!  We had to skin them and strain the seeds out (we used a china cap, not sure if there’s a better strainer for tomatoes out there).  But the tomato sauce made the best spaghetti/ravioli sauce I’ve ever had, even in restaurants.   It in one of very few things that give my taste buds an orgasm a-hard-days-night-george-10

Ok, I finally have worked up the nerve to tell my story for those who are interested. This girl sat next to me in my AP Bio class for almost the whole year. Beautiful girl and really funny, too. Anyways at the end of the year she gave me her phone number. I texted her about late June or so and we ended up having this long conversation about how the Beatles were the greatest band ever (even though she likes Santana and the Police) and she said that I look like George, which I find hard to believe. Then I messed up and told her that I like her and she hasn’t texted back since. I was just listening to I’m A Loser and that describes me perfectly, I almost cried (I am an emotionally weak person). There you goa-hard-days-night-ringo-14

@UnidentifiedFiendishThingy, looks like you had a interrupted Krebs Cycle. I guess your Punnett squares didn’t align.

Expressing your feelings for her doesn’t make you a loser. One never knows how the other person will react to an expression of affection.

Have you read Mr Moonlight ‘s story on page 1 of this thread and the heart-felt responses he received starting on page 2? You may find some comfort in that conversation.

You did not mess up and you are not a loser. Anyone who works up the courage to tell someone else how they feel is a winner. If she did not respond, she is the one with the problem, not you. I know you have feelings for her and I am sorry that, so far, it has not worked out to your liking. One day, you are going to tell someone how you feel and they will be smart enough to respond to you positively. If you stop telling people how you feel about them, you may miss out on that wonderful, joyous feeling of someone liking you back. Do not be afraid of how you feel – ever.

There you goa-hard-days-night-ringo-14

hmm what’s what i did listened to I’m A Loser and other sad songs from Beatles For Sale when i couldn’t get a girl i liked ( i still like her). But man it happens it’s either you choice whether you like to live your in depression or live a happy life and listen to songs like I Want To Hold Your Hand . From my story, i was heavily depressed i couldn’t even study and whenever i would open science subjects like bio and chem, i closed them and laid on the bed and kinda feeling really down, i would feel like i couldn’t do anything.

I changed myself a lot just to get her and it costed me my 1st position and yea since i was writing songs (lyrically) i couldn’t even write anything except about sadness and depression (and i hate almost every single word i wrote then) it kinda  turned into a huge crush when she turned and looked into my eyes.

 

well  after being depressed for almost every night i told myself to stop thinking of her (it was extremely hard) and i did but again i caught her looking at me aaaand i was again lost and depressed, crush lasted till whole 1st term and was over when vacations started and one more thing i again caught her looking at me one final day before summer but i ignored her

But it’s now up-to you that how you want to live your life and if you only said that you like her a few weeks again than i guess you should try to contact her again maybe she was shocked to hear the word Loveheart from you.

But if it doesn’t work then you should move on there’s nothing in being depressed and down, it’ll slowly kill you from inside and will heavily affect you life and abilities to work. I know it’s kinda hard and even more knowing that the girl was a beatlemanic but as i said before no need to stay depressed, just more hard and study well so that you become a powerful person one day and don’t let her thoughts come in the way.

I don’t know you much but i’m trying to help ’cause i know how badly it affected my music and i lost  position as well which i’ve held for many years.

and yesterday i saw her again but this time i thought about her a little and quickly changed my thought, started thinking about beatles , just listen to a pink floyd song coming back to life and stare straight into the shining sun.

 

P.S I know there will be a lot of grammatical mistakes especially of then and then, im sorry cause i wrote it real quick

Have you seen her in person since you texted last? She might feel the same way and was just shocked at the text. There is even the chance she didn’t get the text! You can’t know unless you’ve seen her in person though, so if you haven’t, you don’t need to be sad just yet.

C’mon, if she’s beautiful, funny, and loves The Beatles and Police (I think you’ve defined my perfect woman UFT ahdn_paul_02) then you should try and text her again, unless of course you have seen her since and she just doesn’t feel the same.

In that case you could try to still be friends, although that doesn’t always work. No matter what you just have to keep yourself happy. If she doesn’t feel the same being sad isn’t going to fix it, you can be disappointed, but staying happy is better for you.

If she gave you her number on her own, she obviously had some sort of interest in you. While it may be stressful not getting a reply when you’ve been brave enough to tell someone how you feel, you can’t worry about it unless your sure she doesn’t like you in that way.

So I’m probably rambling a bit, but the main point is, have you seen her since?

I’ve just gotten back from an 8 day vacation on Vancouver Island – specifically Victoria, British Columbia.  Beautiful city, great weather, time with friends and family, shopping, being by the ocean and seeing my first lacrosse games 🙂 

Now I am back to work…and reality!

It will take me a lifetime to read all the posts I missed while I was gone….but I’ll try a-hard-days-night-george-10

@UnidentifiedFiendishThingy, this has happened to me many times.  Let me begin by saying this is just my experiences and some stuff my dad taught me – it may or may not work for you. I’m by no means the world’s greatest expert on women!

First, it requires that you talk/text her and she responds. In your case, she isn’t responding to your texts, so you will need to set up an “accidental meeting”.

I do this – it’s worked a couple times, didn’t work some times, but some of the “failures” ended up gaining me a good friend.  And good friends of your desired gender often lead you to their friends, with any of whom you might strike up a relationship.  Plus, “There’s no failure, only failure to try”.  The first time it worked all the way for me, we were friends for 3 years and eventually she let me kiss her and we became quite the item until we graduated and went our separate ways (this was in college, but it could work in high school too).  I did make several good friends.  The friend might mention to your girl how nice you treat her or something.  Don’t date her friend just to try to influence her feelings (try to make her jealous or envious), that’s bad karma. Only say it if you really would be able to just be friends and not have your romantic attraction get in the way. show her the kind of person you really are through your actions.  She’ll appreciate your restraint. Then give it time – people tend to become more physically attractive to each other as they become closer as friends.

I might text her (preferably meet her “accidentally” somewhere like the hall) and say something like “I really like you as a friend. I am attracted to you, but first and foremost I enjoy our friendship and our chats.  We seemed to get along really well and have a lot of the same interests. I miss talking to you.  I’d like it if we could be friends.”

Maybe she will start talking to you…and then, just hope that your friendship will blossom into something more in her heart.  If you do nothing, you’ve almost certainly lost her.  But if you can maintain some relationship, anything can happen.

If you really like someone and she doesn’t immediately respond, keep trying – don’t necessarily do what I said, find your own style – but the main point is letting her know that her friendship is more important than her body.  Find out something she’s interested in, maybe a club she’s in, and join it (unless it’s something only girls like).  Then treat her friendly but nonchalantly, as if she’s just another friend.  If she sees you as an outgoing, fun, friendly person, or even just someone with traits she likes, it could help turn her your way.  The point is to show you’re a good person, not that you’re trying to impress her or something – but don’t overdo it, she might think you’re stalking her.  Oh, and under no circumstances should you appear to be “desperate”, “lonely”, “needy”, obsessing about her, clingy, etc – in fact be mildly disinterested in romance.  Sometimes people will pursue you if you appear to not need or want romance.  Good things come to those who wait.

I can’t say this is the best advice – but it’s what I would do (and have done).  If you do start talking, you can say that when she gave you her number (if she offered it without you asking) that you thought she might be interested in you romantically.  That’s quite common, at least among the over 18 crowd.  Once you become good friends, you can ask her why she swagged you at first.  If you don’t catch this one, there are plenty more fish in the sea…(yes, another cliche).

So there is my old man advice, fwiw – take it or leave it 🙂  Maybe someone else here will chime in with ideas.  And good luck with any future romances, with her or anyone else :)

Wasn’t gonna post here about the move until something was official…. And it’s probably good ’cause I have bad news…

We got approved for a nice little apartment!
You all knew it wasn’t bad news when you saw the spoiler tag! ahdn_george_06

It’s probably the nicest apartment complex in the area, and it’s also cheap compared to the other ones, so I’m happy!

It’s right around the corner from the friends we’re staying with. Move in’s on the fifth!
