Question Posted Saturday January 20 2007, 10:28 pm
i'm like, totally inlove with my best guy friend. i asked him out sometime in november but he turned me down. he said that our friendship was more important at our age and stuff. and i see where he's coming from. but since then, we've started growing apart. we haven't had a conversation an hour long, which was like, the minimum amount of time we used to talk before i asked him out. we say hey to each other most of the time we see each other at school, and after school, i hang out with him and his friends until my ride comes. but we never talk one-on-one anymore. not even in the computer. so i've been thinking about messaging him on myspace. i've been thinking about doing this for weeks now, but i just can't seem to do it. it seems like i'm stalking him because ever since i asked him out, i send him messages every now and then, trying to make conversation with him. if i keep doing that, wouldn't it seem like i'm desperate and i'm stalking him? what should i do? should i message him or not? i have an idea in my head about what imma say. something like, "hey. you're proly getting annoyed by how many times i try to make a conversation with you, which never lasts long. i just wanna try one more time, because i really feel like we've been growing apart lately. i really miss those old days when we talked for hours and hours, because now we can't even talk for 5 minutes without silences in between. it really sucks. so what do you say? are you up for trying one more time?"
what do you think?? i really need some perspective on this.
