Title: Just did something kinda stupid
Post by: Birdbrain on July 08, 2013, 09:58:01 PM
There's a woman I've known since middle school, just sent her a romantic poem admiring one of her traits. Ill let you guys know how this resolves. Had a crush on her for years...

Actually, I won't give up if the poem doesn't get her attention. I'm gonna eat a bowl of ghost peppers

Don't look at it as stupid. I had a crush on this girl since middle school. I never said anything, but I once found out through my friend's girlfriend that she had something for me too. She's in my dreams every now and then, and I hope our paths will cross again.

If you don't do anything you'll spend the rest of your life wondering what could have been. Stay positive and be smooth. It'll work out for the best. ;)

Never regret an action, have the confidence in yourself to believe that you're golden.

This! It's the power of positive thinking. Psychical grooming (ladies don't like slobs,) and the belief that youre the best possible person for her (without being a cocky douche about it) will become a reality if you believe it.

Yea man, you gotta try sometimes, I took a shot with a girl one time, and it didn't work out right away. We hung out a bit more and I kept expressing my interest, and I eventually wore her down. We've been together for 10 years now, and I've never been so happy. Taking a chance can by all means pay off. And just remember that love makes fools of us all lol. Good luck, I hope it works out for you =}

I went on a limb before too, I told a girl I liked her and I feel as though she has been ignoring me for a while now

Hope it goes well for you man. I admire your courage to go for it, I was always a puss with women.

I wish you good luck and all, but my mind is boggling on how eating a bowl of very spicy peppers is going to help :P or do you just really love ghost peppers and heat, and that's your version of comfort food?

If you want to impress a woman with an amazing feat

Fry a complete pack of bacon, and then eat it off her
The whole package

Post the poem? I'd like to read it ;-)

Girls tend to dig that kind of stuff, so i applaud you for having the balls to give it to her.

my last girlfriend cheated on me, I think its because I didn't want to go all the way with her and only stopped at second base. That was because I had a bad experience my first time and didnt want to go too far too fast, and compromised with her

So I garuntee I'm not going to be doing anything like this soon. Nice suggestion though, I'll keep it in mind

Just don't go burning her with bacon grease, I don't think she'll appreciate it.

No eat the bacon off her she will love it. Lol

Post by: Crapshooter on July 10, 2013, 03:46:40 PM
But make sure she passes the bacon test, she has to be hot enough to cook your bacon on.

I'm going to take it slow, and nothing anyone is going to say is going to change my mind

Good move.

I think that -1 was undeserved. There's nothing wrong with wanting to take it slow in a relationship

People ping for weird reasons. I once got pinged for trying to help someone find something. But what I said wasnt what the person wasnt looking for

Are you guys friends at all? I applaud you for doing this. Most people go through life without the courage to try something bc it may end in rejection. I've always found this baffling. You live one life time and deserve to be happy. What's the worse that could happen? She says no? Though it may be upsetting at first, imagine years of wondering what if.
Title: Re: Just did something kinda stupid

Yes, we're friends. Been so sense collage

Have you got any response as of yet? I'm kind of a sucker for situations like this and like seeing how they play out
Title: Re: Just did something kinda stupid

No response yet. she does have a busy life

Ah doesnt like me back. She said "that's beautiful, thanks for sharing it with me."
Title: Re: Just did something kinda stupid
Post by: Crapshooter on July 18, 2013, 07:42:22 AM
At least you have closure and you won't kick yourself later. And the best part it's a confidence boost, it may not have worked but you know you have the power in you to try and that she cannot deny you.
Title: Re: Just did something kinda stupid
Post by: Birdbrain on July 18, 2013, 03:59:58 PM
So yea. Apparently she didnt know what I was trying to say. so when I said "guess your not interested", that kind of made her a little mad. So yea, epic crash and burn on my part :P

When something in nature burns it makes way for new, healthier growth. Like a pinecone opened in a wildfire you have planted the seeds of something that will later grow strong. The fire will pass. Hold this moment close and take everything you can from it.

Pfffft Langku called you a pinecone on fire birdbrain, you gonna take that? On a more serious note this is a nice experience to have, for better or for worse.
