I thought me and this girl in my class were pretty close, and when i asked her out, she pretty much said no. It was horrible for me, and I think that ever since it’s been harder to get into the dating business again.

I LIKE this. Such a humorous approach to initiating and approaching response. It is wisdom for girls as much as it is guys, and I, as a woman, have always believed in making things happen. I, in fact, went so far to propose to my husband first (although it was in Spanish, so he was forced to translate) and my girlfriends in high school always drove me nuts with the “OH-we-think-he-is-so-hot-but-we’ll-wait-for-him-to-approach-us”‘ stalemate.

Yours is refreshing because it’s the attitude I wished existed in a lot more people in the dating scene. Not only that, but you’re right about having a story to tell. It is its own therapy in minus-time. Call it superfasttherapy.

Be careful if you do get rejected, talk about it. I didnt, and twelve years later spend three years talking to a phyc. Talking is the answer.
Good luck.

Ha! Oh, right. Look at me. You can tell from my archives that I’m a tiger ready to pounce. Heh.

This is interesting to me. I need to think about this a little bit.

Justin: Even though we’re in the 21 century, there’s still a natural tendency for guys to be the pursuer, no? Yes, presumption on my part. I’m a shy little wall flower. Far from ever being a pursuer. So sue me! :o)

BCOL: who says this post can’t apply to you, as a female, just as much?

That’s why I don’t envy boys… I’ll appreciate the attempts of approach much more now.

I think you’re right. Because sometimes, rejection leads to wonderful things (read: a handsome, funny man) you wouldn’t ever have expected…

For me, the laxative aisle miight just be a place where I’d act like I was just wandering.

But this post definitely makes me think.
