So, I am lonely and feeling sad so I am posting this, which I will probably regret later but I thought someone might have some great insight (although I am terribly skeptical).
As all problems seem to begin, there is this boy... basically I know that even though I often feel like he is The One (if there is such a thing) - it is not going to happen. I believe that he cares about me a lot but is very scared and all kinds of broken and I am trying really hard to get over it even though I love him and feel like he is It.
The worst part is, he lives a block away from me. I saw him today and he saw me but neither of us did anything (looked at each other, moped away sadly) and it is really sad. I wonder how it is possible to get over someone when you walk of your door and see them or see their car, their house, their roommate (who I am friends with, btw), etc. It sucks. I don't understand why it is happening at all - it seems so obvious, we care about each other, etc. But he is not ready and I can't keep putting myself out there.
Now I am rambling. I just really wanted any insight or thoughts anyone had. I am really sad and heartbroken so please be nice to me.
Thanks.
Em

I'll hold my breath, at least until I pass out. Oh, and for those who followed my little prediciment, the good news is that I'm now with Girl #2. It's a good thing. But the bad news is that things are very, very rocky with Girl #1, though it has nothing to do with Girl #2. It's weird. |

Um, no one should hold their breath. I am betting he won't respond.

Thank you, Slaveish, I just saw this.
I am sending a birthday card this weekend. I will let you all know if there is any outcome from that.

Yeah, I've been reading this thread too and I wish I could give you good advice based on my own experience, but I too seem to be one of those women who has good things going for me, but goes for guys who are less than available. After all this time, I think the only thing I've learned is to avoid them. Set your sights higher. It will be a reflection of your self esteem if you go for a guy who is available. if he's not fully there- sort of seems like it sometimes, but backs off other times, then he's not available. Good luck!!! |

It's best not to put a label on these things ("we broke up" "it's over") because when "stuff" happens (you know what stuff I'm talking about) one becomes flustered and freaked trying to put a label on *that* .... So you slept with him again, big deal.

Tre, I thought you meant that you got back together with your ex and were bumming out about it and beating yourself up over it. Maybe I misunderstood? So then I said, well, don't beat yourself up about it, just enjoy the sex. Or something.

Emily, go the local record shop, buy a the new debut album by THEGO!TEAM (Thunder, Lightening, Strike). Play track number 10 (Huddle Formation) at his party and ask him to dance. If he doesn't dance like a madman, whilst grinning from ear to ear then I'm a dutchman!
That goes for the rest of you too. The whole album is fantastic. I just got it today, it was an impulse buy 'cos that track was playing when I entered the shop. As I approached the counter with my 3 other albums, I asked the girl who the song was by, she told me and I bought it. I was smiling all the way through the shop, and I seldom smile in public alone. I am gonna keep playing it, I am so happy right now.
p.s - sorry I have no serious advice today Emily, but I am just too happy to relate today. I will be back to being serious just as soon as I can pluck up the stupidity to turn this record off.

hey Ramona, sorry to jump in to your thread so late, i got no advice, i'm way past that coz love has thrown all she has at me and now i just expect the unexpected. i totally empathise with your situation, you'll never know how much. i just wanted to say hope you swell and i agree with Kathryn 100%. since i've been here i've seen so many people on this forum alone who love ya and drown in happiness that are your words. and we dont see or get to hear you.
sorry, i dont know your life or world you live in, but i bet its bigger than one boy.

Stop freaking yourself out with this idea that you are Mental Girl. I keep seeing it your posts here. Your posts everywhere else are from Emily Who Knows She Is Cool; the posts about Him are from Emily Who Thinks She's Unstable. Kick-ass, confident, sweet Emily needs to serve an eviction notice to Freaky Emily.
Same advice for Tre.
Tre, you had make-up sex with your ex, didn't you? That's OK. That's cool. I bet it was great. Stop beating yourself up about it.

Thanks guys. Feeling stupid for even posting this at all. Blah.
He was never my ex. He was my friend for like two years, then we did a lot of flirting and some making out and since then things have been awkward and dramatic and never again "normal". That was about two years ago.

The more I think about it, the more I realize that I have been a total dummy and I really pushed him away a few months ago (as a friend) b/c I was trying to protect myself from what I feared was going to be his rejection when really he was just thinking we were friends again. So I "specifically not invited" (in his words) to my birthday party and I haven't talked to him since. I think whatever I do now is just going to be SO random from his POV, and I don't know how to come back from that.
So, no news. I just wanted to give you an update. I'm an idiot. I have become 'the dumb boy' in this situation. D'oh. I think I will send him a birthday card and ask him to call me or something. I don't know what else to do. I think any BIGGER gesture than that is just going to be perceived as mental and weird. Which I am. Oy!
Anyway, thanks for listening. This the latest and greatest.

Birthday card, good idea. Ask him to call you, another good idea. So good I'll spell it "gooooood." And if he's still upset about "specifically not being invited" to your birthday party, then invite him to HIS birthday party. If it comes off as totally random, is that necessarily a bad thing?

embrace the mental weirdness for all it is, adopt my friends technique of running up saying "I like you" in a high pitched and quick manner then zig zaggedly run away.
Or just drop him a note saying you'd like to talk and lay it on the line, explain why you've acted why you have how you feel and leave the ball in his court, it stops the heartache, in theory
On matters of the heart I have done the stupidest thing in the world ever and I am so angry, I fell for my ex all over again, I thought I'd managed it ok but then he bloody made me fall in love with him again. the total bastard. I love him. Stupid [i]stupid[.i] tre

Actually, yes, we do and I have you to thank because I have long made fun of him for his obssession with the java jacket. So I appreciate anything I can use to further mock him.
Maybe Ramona and The Guy can have The Talk over coffee and she can figure it all out while looking at his java jacket. Or something.

Does this include the little thin cardboard jackets that give you 2 extra seconds before your fingertips burn or is it confined to the fur lined java jackets? <Disclaimer: I usually bring a mug and I don't know what that says about my sexual orientation, it either means I'm conservative or I come prepared> |
