I have a situation here and im not totally sure how to go about it.

A girl I know used to live across the street from me, I liked her alot but really wasnt sure if she liked me. Her mom used to give me and her a ride to school everyday for about a year.
This was when we were both about 15-16.
Ive thought about her from when we first met, to my current age. 20.
I couldnt really do anything about it, living a few states away.

Present time.

I recently came back down here ( south carolina ) from OKlahoma to visit my dad before I leave for the Army. I had gotten ahold of her ( after an hour of searching ) and we went out for some lunch. We had a good time talking about when we went to school etc, I noticed she was looking into my eyes most the time when we talked. We laughed alot and in general, had a good time.

Now my dilema.

Id like to tell her how I feel about her, im the romantic, chilvarous type of guy and I saw this message in a bottle thing, looked interesting. It would be mailed to her, by the way.

I would like to write her, and her write me while im in Basic Training also.
The thing is, ill be gone for 5 months then when im done with that, will be stationed in Oklahoma. It may be possible to change my Job and be stationed right near her, but im not sure.

I tend to be a shy person, so telling her in person is quite difficult for me.

What should I do? Should I send the bottle thing, or just write a plain jane ole fashioned letter or what.
Help!

+++++edit++++
Oh ya, I dont know her address.. Should I just ask her, and tell her id like to send her something?
Thanks

Just write a letter on regular paper and send it in a regular envelope. Just ask her for her address so that you can write her a letter while you're away. Pretend like she's a buddy who you want to keep in contact with - a buddy you want to fvck in the ass at a later time .

Wow its nice to see an example of all of the AFC's out there.

Thanks Reaction for the great first post. It really brought the memories back of when I had no idea how to deal with women.

With confidence like this you are doomed!

Please re-attach your ba11s and then try again.

Thanks Chewy, thats one of the main things I was debating. I will prolly just do that.
