So today after school I was going home on the bus with the girl I've liked for most of this year. I had thought that we were getting to know each other, and, you know, I might be able to get up the courage to ask her out in a little bit. I've read the "Don Juan Bible" or whatever it's called, I like the part about assuming the sale, I can see that working, I had it figured out, more or less.
But today she basically talks the entire time about my friend, who's in her English class now, and how she likes him, etc., etc. So you can imagine this was a conversation that I was just thrilled to have.
Anyway, I don't even know anymore. Does this pretty much guarantee, as David DeAngelo said, that I'm just a "nice guy," or "relegated to friend status forever"? I was starting to feel like an "emotional tampon" today. So do me and this girl have any chance at all? I mean, we know each other to some degree, but obviously if she's talking about the guy she likes to me, then she pretty much thinks as me just as a friend and doesn't think there's ever a possibility of that changing...
Ugh... I could go on and on and complain...
She did say that she's never actually talked to him and probably never will, but just "likes to look at him," which didn't make me feel much better.
So basically, do I have any chance of this girl going out with me? Yeah, I know I should think about it in terms of "me being the prize," etc., but come on, if she's talking about having a crush on my friend to me then that can't possibly be a good sign.
