I don't have a girlfriend, since almost every girl here is either an attention whore, stupid as fuck or unreliable.

I have no boyfriend ATM, much to the chagrin of my dance club. I do however like someone and I am hoping we'll be together by the end of the summer. :3

Ahh, it's always so soul-destroying when you like someone whilst not being in a relationship with them... :(

Hey, it's okay Xenny. I'd much rather prefer if you could treat me just like you could care less about me, but who knows, I might develop similar feelings for you :)

:P

I get what you mean tho, made quite the same experiences earlier already

Love. I hate it.
And I love it.

Here's why. It's long but it's still heavily summarized. You can read it but if you have any common sense, you won't. It's my sad and depressing story.
TIP: Read this with epic music playing in the background if you're gonna read it and don't want to get bored.
I've been in love with a girl of my class for 2 years now. School is almost over and I'll probably never see her again. Maybe that's for the better. That is - if I survive it. Because I don't just like her. I love her with my life. And by that, I mean literally with my LIFE. I've been in love before, but I never loved anyone so much as I love her now.
A year ago, I told her about it all, and she said no. She kept saying no, and then suddenly I became a "stalker" while not actually stalking her. She wouldn't even talk to me, not even look at me. Part of me died then, and for a while, I managed to drag myself through a few months, while I tried to forget her in vain. Until she started looking at me again, sitting close to me and smiling. And she started doing it... a lot. So I got my hopes up again. And then after a while, she stopped and started ignoring me again. Until a few weeks ago, when the same thing happened all over again. She looked, then she stopped. And she didn't look happy about that. So I asked her best friend why she was doing that. She replied while not answering my question. So I asked again, saying she could ask the girl if she didn't know. So she did, which I noticed because she was looking pretty angry, but at the same time happy this Friday (yep, that's pretty recent, isn't it?). She replied that the girl wasn't very happy "that I started again", but guess what? She didn't answer my question, again.

I'm not sure what to think now. She probably hates me. But what was that a few weeks ago then? Is she indecisive? It's killing me. Maybe soon literally, because it's getting really bad. I hope not. I'm stressed. I can't think normally. All the mysteriousness makes it feel like she's up to something, but then again, maybe not. I know nothing, nothing at all. Like always.

It's pretty much the reason why Eclipse has been (hopefully temporarily) dead for a year now. For the people who have been following the game's progress, she's "Lily", which is an abbreviation of "L... I Love You". Sad, because I ruined everything for myself by putting references to her everywhere. I'd need to change the whole story to get rid of that character, and it's too hard for me to touch it. And I can't stop! I keep making things with her in it...
In short: I do a lot of stupid things and I always regret them. And I keep thinking that maybe it's all not so stupid after all. So far in vain though.

Aww. :( I'd think the only way to win her love is to tell her those exact feelings. What is she like?

Hehe, I already have. Probably too much, because I'm a "stalker" in her eyes now. :/
What she's like? Well, she's always really happy, and in fact a lot like me in many ways. That means she's shy and stubborn too.
And about my situation now: I really don't know anymore. First she smiles at me, then she ignores me, then she smiles at me again, and so on. She looked at me a lot again the past days, but this time, she didn't really seem happy about me. Today though, she didn't seem to mind. As if her angry face yesterday and Friday was just a show. All that makes her seem like a bitch who's playing with my feelings though. But I know she isn't.
I think she's just very indecisive. Just like me. But because of that, I'll probably never know if she likes me or not. Unless I find a way to win her love anytime soon...

...which I doubt.

If she liked you then I'm sure she would have embraced your admission instead of getting angry by it. Even if not the first time, at least the second or third time. There's no use beating a dead horse. I don't want to upset anybody, but if she has told you/implied that she isn't interested multiple times, it's a game ender, and time to move on.

How kind of you to tell me what countless other people already told me over a year ago.
Xenon wrote:it's a game ender, and time to move on.
First, my life is not a game. Neither are my personal problems, which I shouldn't have bothered anyone here with in the first place. Not that anyone can help me anyway.

You clearly didn't read my first post about this. My love is rather serious and can't just be stopped like that (it's quite deadly even). Believe me, I tried more than once, and those were the most depressing months of my life. It took me more than half a year (see first post) before I was able to force myself to ignore her, but she had to come and ruin my attempt by acting like she did like me (see first post). The same happened a few times then and when I asked, it was never explained to me why she did this.
How the hell am I supposed to believe that she doesn't at least like me a bit when I catch her staring at me at least once every hour, and sometimes smiling, too (which is still happening, even now)? That'd be like "this guy makes me really happy, but I hate him". Seriously? Logic tells me something's not right about that.

I really appreciate your reply but next time, please read a bit more before giving "advice".
And sorry to have bothered you guys with this. Shouldn't have done so.

Maybe you should just tell her those very things you've said here. If you let her know how painful that situation is for you, she should change her behaviour.

That's what I've done a couple of times now (she probably thinks I'm exaggerating though), and she always changes her behaviour, every day she seems to think differently about me. Which is really frustrating because I keep getting my hopes up. The last time I let her know about it via her friend (less than a week ago), I asked why she's always looking and smiling at me and all that. Both her and her friend evaded the question twice, which is rather strange, because surely she can just answer why if it's a bad thing right?

I'll just see how it turns out. I wonder why I even told you guys, what was I thinking?
You know what? Just forget all this, okay? I'll just figure it out on my own, and maybe tell y'all if anything really bad/good happens.

Xenon was just trying to be helpful and he gave you his opinion, whether you believe it's possible or not. In any case, I feel sorry for you and I wish you luck, Droolie!

Gahh you can never tell if someone likes you or not... it's just a mess of mixed messages.

I didn't mean to insult your position, Droolie. But sometimes in life the best thing anyone can do is give you the harsh solid truth (even if you've already acknowledged it). I'm certainly no expert, and maybe I've misjudged the situation, but from what I gather it's a one way street.

You don't have to listen to me, but it's the advice I was given when I was in a rough patch, and I'm eternally grateful for those who did give it to me. Good luck in whatever you decide to do :)

Hey, sorry for that, Xenon. I just get pissed off easily because, well, my situation is quite frustrating. She seems to change her mind all the time (today I caught her staring and smiling at me again while she looked pretty angry on Monday) so I'm just really confuzzled, and being confuzzled isn't always fun.
I'd try to stop thinking about it and just move on, but that's not very simple when every single time you look slightly in her direction, you see her quickly looking away - so she was looking even though I wasn't. Which is crazy! And horribly confusing. :confus:
The thing is, I don't think she'd tell me if she did like me because she really doesn't dare much. So I feel like I have to constantly remind her that I like her.
Anyway, I'll let it go - have no choice. I'll probably try talking to her one last time though, since we'll have to wait together (and alone!) for some of our exams anyway. Wonder how that'll go. Guess that'll depend on how she feels that day.
Anyway yeah, I'm sorry for getting pissed off. ;)

I`ll suggest having to let her go. It may hurt extraordinarily at first, but with time all wounds will heal.
