It's not like you guys are always the princes that you like to believe you are. I've been hopelessly in love (lust?) with two guys that couldn't pick up on less than subtle hints (one never, the other only after he had a girlfriend, resulting in a big icky mess that I'd rather not go into right now). I've been led on, cheated on, and used as a smooch buddy, and I've spent literally days of my life (probably) sobbing into the phone with whichever friend on the line. But this isn't a pity party for liz; it's just pointing out that men have their bad moments too. Perhaps Keenon is taking the wrong approach to talking to the women he likes. I take two kinds of attitudes when I meet a guy, usually friend or potential person to date. Flirt with someone you're interested in right off so that maybe you can hammer it into their thick skulls that you like them. I've already heard about the girl at work that you liked, Keenon, where she asked you to hook her up with one of your friends. Unless she's a total bitch, she wouldn't have asked you to do that if she had any idea of you liking her. I wouldn't even say that just straight up telling someone "I have a crush on you" is the best plan of action. That can be really awkward if you are on the recieving end of this news and you aren't attracted to the other person. Actually, it's kind of awkward even if both parties like each other. YOu are both so fucking nervous you still aren't going to grab eachother and start passionately making out. Instead, you will probably continue to stare blankly at each other, nervouse and uncertain of what to do. I bet you've probably heard this before, but guys shouldn't be so subtle. Girls are every bit as thick skull as you boys (ssshhh! I don't want to hear it). Some guys are flirty with lots of girls, so when they actually like one of us, the girl is confused since she's not sure if the guy likes her or is just flirting with her since that's what he does. Or some guys just don't flirt and then get all mad when we think of them as platonic buds when they finally just say "I have a crush on you." That sucks since it redefines what we had previously seen as a great friendship that we didn't have to worry about that whole boy/girl stuff. That's enough for now. class dismissed.Lot's o' lovin, Liz--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
