isn't it interesting that the worse a story is, the more details are given?

There was this girl, right? (how all great stories start, I know.)

Now, I was sort of crushing on her from afar, across my Economics class when I was in Junior year of High School. I never got up the nerve to say anything, and on the last day I was really fighting with myself to go up and talk to her. I wimp out, but just before leaving she comes up to me and hands me her number with the subnote "call me whenever you have a free day!"

So, I got about a year of friendship with her. She made it clear she wasn't interested in romance, mostly because it was senior year and we'd all be leaving soon. We hung out, we watched movies, I met her friends, etc.

End of this most recent summer, we're both gearing up to leave for college, and she surprises me with this text asking if I'm unhappy being "just friends" with her, because I'm always so awkward and she hates that and asks if there's anything she can do to help.

So, guess what? I wimp out and say I'm actually really happy and the awkwardness was just because I was uneasy because she had recently had some minor surgery.

Even if she was interested, I know that while she'd be great for me, I'd be terrible for her. she deserves more than I'd be able to give.

So. we both went off to college, and sometimes still chat online. I still hate myself for not asking her out during any of that time. Take a bullet for her? sure. Bury a corpse? no doubt. Some men say "has great personality" when they don't have anything nice to say, but that's not what I mean when I say she has great personality. When she opens her mouth, you automatically forget about how attractive she is- that's how great her personality is.

So I guess I'm saying maybe.

Wow, the semi-anonymity of the internet is really cathartic.

People today are INCAPABLE of love. we have lost the true meaning of the word "love." We live in a world were our feelings to some one we hope will complete us shares the same word as the feelings I feel toward lasagna.

My view on love:

To me, love is a joke with no punchline. Love is an illogical feeling, like happiness. Love is an illusion that is perceived as a chemical reaction if around a specific member of the opposite sex (in some cases, same sex) for a prolonged period of time. Love is a difficult word to define because those who believed it's happened to them is more than likely delusional at best. I believe those in love are experiencing a mutual lust for one another, and the couple would choose to stay and form this foreign bond called a relationship, but this lust is only an illusionary cloud distorting their views on each other. At first sight, love is a physical manifestation canopied in the shape of a human being (or humanoid form, whatever floats your boat). I would call this lust, since it's one of the truly primal instincts that we for some reason, find it difficult to control. But what blocks us from the ability to "love" or "lust" is our primal fear of rejection and mental anguish it processes, along with legal issues at hand. Also, if someone wishes to love, one must learn to trust, because what is love if you can't trust your partner?

Short answer: I've never fallen in love, as it's not a part of my personality. Falling in hate, however, I'm familiar with that.

yes, with myself... course it was tough love...

actually, probably yes, the girl I've been holding a torch for so long my arm has long since burnt away and I'm little more than a pile of ash.

Well, have you ever been in Love? Yes? No?

I, for one, have never been in love, but I'm still young.
I was in love once, I moved from London to Cardiff to be with her, we were together for 4 years and got engaged.

She went on a month holiday and said to me when she got back "I'm not sure if we should be together" she went to her mothers and that was just over a year ago.

I'm 22.
Not to be an ass, but, did she screw another guy while on holiday? and if you were so close, why not take a holiday together?

I don't believe she cheated on me. It was for her Uni course, so I couldn't go with her (Even if I wanted to I didn't have a valid passport)

She sent me e-mails everyday, then about halfway through the month they slowed, then stopped.

I did manage to get this much from her before she left :
She said she wanted to be more indipendant and less reliant on me so it was best we weren't together anymore

That is wonderful, it is good to hear there are people, who, even in these days can find love, props to both you and the girl, you for simply finding someone you think is special, her, for opening her eyes to the true person, not their outward appearance.

I wish you luck, and hope you get the chance to see her again.
I am sure you will, as long as you maintain a positive attitude and never simple give up.
