Hello, I wrote to you earlier asking you what you thought about this really great guy whom I wanted to ask out. I met up with him a while ago. We were hanging out and eating some fudgesicle icecream pop things. It was fun, but I was so nervous and I kept on saying these really stupid things. Like at one point, I started ranting about how they should make Caprisun pouches in a bigger size. wtf, right?! Then I went on to talk about how people-watching ( its what some writers do to get new ideas for characters) is a pg rated form of stalking. I dont know what I was thinking. It was like I had no filter between my brain and my mouth. You know what the funny thing is though? HE WAS COOL ABOUT IT!!! He laughed, added what he thought, and said some totally random things too!
Now the bad part was later. Finally, I started to be more calm. We sat down on his porch and I leaned on his shoulder. He seemed okay with it and went as far as playing with my hand and eventually holding it. After a while, I took a deep breath and told him that he was really cool. He replied that he thought thatI was pretty cool myself. And then I asked him out... and things all went downhill from there. He nudged away from me and got really jumpy when I tried getting close to him again. Then he must have realized how odd he was acting because he did this really awkward laugh, like this: "aaah-ha-ha-HA-HA!...uuuhhn..." Then he started to rub his neck and stutter some excuse. I got really embarrassed so I told him to just forget about it but then he was all "n-no! Its just- well, you see...*HUGE sigh*...lemme get back to you-*long pause* oh, boy..." By then I felt like crying so I told him to seriously just forget about it. I then proceded to purposely drop the rest of my icecream pop on my shirt and mumble: " Oh, gosh. Ive got to go change. Ill talk to you later." And finally, I managed a teary smile before walking as fast as I could.
Additional info, added Monday August 2 2010, 4:35 pm: I guess I should probably tell you that he's been trying to call me. More than likely to tell me that he doesn't like me that way... :( What should I say so that I can atleast stay friends with him?. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category? Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life? TheLonelySoul answered Monday August 2 2010, 4:53 pm: How EXACTLY did you ask him out???????? Theres different ways to, What did you say????? Seems like you acted too quickly. And you should have an honest talk with him, a real one. Ask him to have a good talk on how ye both feel....But let me know more info before you do so. Ye probably asked em out the wrong way. I should have made sure you knew how to ask him. I can help ye more if ye tell me how you asked em out, remember to keep a comfortable pace & not to rush. Aswell, how old are you & him??????? I want to help you more. AND remember to have a GOOD attitude. Try not to cry in front of him. It makes me sad when a girl cries in front of me... It's still possible so don't quit or feel sad, this is experience that will benefit you. & remember to tell me how ye asked em out... then I'll be able to help you easily...
