Posted October 10, 2013 The break up happened a fortnight ago. You would have thought id gotten over it now. Feeling really down today I hope it doesn't take too long for you to get to the stage where you realise that it's probably all for the best.. but you'll get there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 12, 2013 Text a friend asking for him to find me someone as I'm feeling a bit bleurghlonely (all one word). He suggested we go to a gay bar and my response was "no those people are the worst". I'm not sure why I'm single... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 12, 2013 Those people are the worst though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 12, 2013 Worse than Ashley, though? At least I think that was his point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 13, 2013 Urgh, I have a crush on a lady, but she appears to be into another man. Hasn't happened in a long time. It's a weird feeling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 13, 2013 7 weeks later I think the break up is starting to hit me a bit. Gone from feeling like I have space to feeling like the space is kinda empty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 13, 2013 7 weeks later I think the break up is starting to hit me a bit. Gone from feeling like I have space to feeling like the space is kinda empty. For me, that always has been the worst time. I don't need to tell you: It'll get better. Try not to let it get to you too much (duh). /worstadviceever How are peoples feelings towards simply saying "I have a crush on you" to someone? In particular to a person you haven't spent time alone with and you only know for a week? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 13, 2013 I think you are better to strike while the iron is hot. Don't leave it until you get to be really good friends, (which makes you like them more) and by which time you have probably become friend-zoned. Not saying that friends to romance doesn't work out... but in my experience, getting to know someone BECAUSE you could see a future with them is a bad move. So in other words I say GOOO FOOORRR EEEEET. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would just ask her out rather than just say you like her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 13, 2013 ^^ that too, but make sure you specify DATE and not just hanging out or something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 13, 2013 Unless you're both 10, saying you have a crush on them will sound laaaaaame. Do what playboy Charlie says. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 13, 2013 Contrary to what I said earlier, think I may just try and have casual fun for a while. I feel like I'm taking life too fucking seriously lately. Just need to overcome that whole psychological issue that crops up whenever I try this and job's a goodun. Oh to be 19 again... (Also kind of had a date earlier, but let's ignore that because it's going nowhere) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 14, 2013 How are peoples feelings towards simply saying "I have a crush on you" to someone?In particular to a person you haven't spent time alone with and you only know for a week? I'd second Charlie's post. Met a lady recently who I kinda suspected was into someone else from a conversation she was having with her friend, but I thought fuck it and asked her out for dinner anyway; half to just get it out of the way now. She was actually quite honest in telling me she really likes some other dude now, though I've still persuaded her to dinner so now I think most of the awkwardness can be easily cut out/avoided. You'll both know where you stand, I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 14, 2013 Yup, asking her out would've been my preferred choice, too. I was just wondering...what would it be like to say to someone "I have a crush on you". Probably lame, like Ellmeister said Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 14, 2013 Yeah man, super lame :p Don't think you can do it in most circumstances, let alone someone you've known a week! Of course...maybe give it a go and let us know? :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 14, 2013 Of course...maybe give it a go and let us know? :p Not going to happen :p Nothing's going to happen for that matter. The crush I had. It's gone. No idea what happened. Anyway. Anybody remember the lady who I asked if she wanted to sleep with me? She came over last Saturday. And nothing happened. Well, we watched a movie and cuddled, which was really nice. We also talked and laughed a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 16, 2013 Haha, oh you crazy kids. Ah joy, going on holiday with my bestie tomorrow (I'm so excited and nervous - WHAT IF I FORGET SOMETHING?!) and everyone thinks we're going to have a 'romantic get away'. How about this. None of you fucks wanted to come with me when I said I wanted to go to Thailand. Nobody would raise an eye if I went with a girl. Shut the fuck up and sit down before you ruined a great friendship with the one person who has shown me kindness since I came to Cambridge. Jealous assholes. Hmmf. In all seriousness, romance is not on the cards. But I do wonder how easy it would all be, I mean, we're best friends already and it'd be so easy to become more than that. But its such a trap haha.

Posted October 16, 2013 I swear I'm my own worst enemy. Whilst I'm far from a Casanova (as anybody who visits the forum user photos will attest), I don't do too badly. I've had a few girls like me, but they're not usually girls that I like (I'm also terrible at doing something about it, but that's a separate issue). However there's a girl in the office that I like, and she likes me. It's gotten to the point now where I could take the next step. The problem? She's here temporarily, and will be going back to India in two weeks. Fuck. I know there's the option of a long-distance relationship. But 6000 miles between us, when we'd have only been dating for around a week, isn't exactly a recipe for success. (There's also the issue of me taking way longer than two weeks to actually do something.) Anyway that's my dose of self-commiserating crap. As you were.
