Fear of rejection maybe? if so its just like any other fear and you just have to take the plunge. The worst that can happen is that she'll say no, if its a close freind then your situation is a little more complex and Im no help. I still dont think its something to get sad about.

i dont know what to do. I like this girl and she says that she likes me. But she is having problems with exes lately and doesnt want to date right now. Is she telling the truth, should i wait. idk

hey its alright to be scared. I am terrified of rejection and have been rejected 6 times and sucessfully done it 0 times. its alright to be afraid. and the worst thing that can happen is no trust me. It will hurt but you will have to get right back on your toes. It will take a while but you will. But then there is the yes. i dont know how that feels but i imagine it great

That's understandable, but think about it this way. Wouldn't it hurt more to watch the girl you like go out with someone that isn't you because you didn't even try? And Penguin's right, getting sad about it isn't going to help you solve the problem. Women like confident guys, not guys that can't stand up for themselves.

Depends. If she recently split up with someone, or still has the feelings, you can't turn your emotions on and off like a tap.
If it seems a bit tedious to you, it's probably her way of letting you down gently, so perhaps you should elsewhere.
Gah, I have an advice website, so I'll probably try to help everyone.
Anyway, here's my problem.
Yesterday, I went to my brothers for my nephew's birthday and it was alright until night. I was tired because I haven't been sleeping properly, I only got about 4 hours the night prior, so I asked mum if we could head off home soon at about 11:00.
My brother said, "How can you be tired, you don't do anything all day."
My mum then started saying how useless I am round the house and how stupid I am.
I tried standing up for myself by saying, "At least I have a future, I've got more GCSE's than you two put together."
My brother said, "You don't have a future, you stay in your room all day like a sad loser, at least I have my kids, you'll have no one."
I told him to shut up and went back into the living room with my boyfriend, then broke down crying on him.
I never let any one's words get to me, but what he said really upset me, I couldn't help it. I was crying, actually shaking with anger and told my boyfriend to be careful because I was most likely going to take my anger out on him and I didn't want to hurt him.
My brother enters the living room and asks what's wrong, but I don't tell him because he's the reason why I'm crying. He grabs my head and starts roughly shaking it to get me to face him. (?) My boyfriend grabs his hand to stop him, so he starts an argument with him.
"She's my sister I'm trying to help her, don't you fucking stop me" etc.
After he goes upstairs Mum enters the living room later, notices me crying and asks whats wrong.
I tell her she won't care, and she asks what I mean. I just felt so angry at this point, I was going to explode, when I'm so angry I will go crazy regardless of who's around.
I stood up and can't remember what I said, I can't get my words out properly when I'm furious.
I screamed something like, "I'm fucking useless remember? all my hard work-"
Then I just screamed again and dropped to the floor shouting something like, "All the hard work I do at school, everything I do for you and it's not good enough, there's no point anymore!"
I was crying so much and scratching at the sofa and the floor, just letting all my anger out.
My mum started shouting at me, saying I was a physco and needed locking up (This isn't the first time she's said it to me)
My sister-in-law shot into the living room, offered me her hand and pulled me up saying, "What's wrong sweetie?" then she took me outside for fresh air and a chat.
When I got home, me and my boyfriend went to bed and I started crying on him again, then told him about the panic attacks and hallucinations I keep having. I kept telling him I don't want them to take me away and lock me up because there's nothing wrong with me.
He was a great comfort at least.
Anyway, sorry about that, my friends don't seem to care about my problems anymore.
Theres a guy who lives in a city about 2 hours away from me whom I've been crushing on for about a year. I think I started to like him because he said he liked me. Now I'm about to move to the city he lives in, and he's one of the few people I know, and I was browsing his "area" online last night and found out he has got a new girlfriend. Now I can only hope that it doesn't work out. I've been bummed out most of the day today. I'll get over it though, I wasn't head over heels yet, my mind is resiliant.
I have to do an entire project on human and civil right violations in the country of Vietnam during the last century. It has to be a 15 page paper with a visual presentation. I am supposed to be working with a partner but he refuses to do any work because hes Vietnamese and doesn't want to "be reminded of his ancestors wrongdoings".

Tell him that his ancestors didnt do anything wronge. tell him they did what they believed to be correct. Its the truth, and just because he is Vietnamese doesnt mean that his family contributed to it. Either way he should do it.
Yes, yes I am. Shittest day for a good few years. I am fully capable of dealing with it, I just feel like expressing my feelings on how shit this day has been. For some reason I thought there might be a thread to say "I've had a shit day" on the Escapist and here we are.
Remember children, stay the fuck away from people who try to drag you into sorting out their problems, especially when trouble seems to follow them around.

I tried that hes just looking for a way to get a good grade without doing any work. Also I tried talking to my teacher to see if I could get a new partner but I can't. I guess I'll just have to do it by myself then.
