What's yours? For me, it has to be at age 16 and I was writing her sweet love poems. She liked me a lot and I fvcked it up by showering her my emotions. But one thing for sure, It made me find my passion in Poetry and literature and art and channeled it elsewhere into other matters besides relationships and romanticism. So what about you guys? What is the most 'ridiculous' thing you've ever done to impress a woman?
Confessed to number one beauty in middle school with other girls present. She was around HB8 and very popular. I was told off because I was severely overweight and poor. After that, the girls did some bullying too, but that was only psychological, nothing serious.
I had some family circumstances around this time and got depressed. Things went downhill from there but the memory of HB8 strangely fueled me. It wasn't in a sexual way, rather it was idealism. "Everyone only likes strong people. I want to be strong!"
So I spent 10 years. I lost weight, got money, got a decent physique. As I reached the finish line, I started making my peace with it. "HB8 from back then must live somewhere else by now."
One day, goes into a low-end supermarket, and sees HB8 working at the entrance. Still looking pretty, still remembering me. Stereotype situation unfolds. She was giving me signs left and right, even acting needy and shy. Not a trace of the extroverted and confident beauty. Fate practically handed me my childhood crush on a silver platter. The type of fantasy every loser is drooling over.
For added effect, it was a cold winter day around Christmas. Almost nighttime, that supermarket was opened longer than the others, normally I wouldn't go there. I just so happened to be well-dressed that day and even had a fresh haircut too.
She was being obvious enough to get laughed at aloud by her colleagues. She looked like she teared up a bit. It was before I knew any DJ stuff and I had zero dating experience. I thought she was messing with me somehow. At the time, it seemed surreal and distant.
I went home, time passed, days turned into weeks. It eventually hit me. I started to laugh like a madman. "I tried THIS hard, but didn't go for it?" Some more manic laughing followed. I wonder to this day why I had failed right at the illusive finishing line I set for myself.
Of course, I went back there eventually. She acted like I didn't exist. Can't even blame her. I was an absolute imbecile. From her point of view, it must have looked like I got some pity revenge on her. I went out of my way to show up two or three more times. But she continued to act that way. One day she stopped working there. It might have looked like I was enjoying looking down on her till the end. From my point of view, I always liked her, even if I was kind of a punching bag for her sometimes. It beat being excluded by my classmates and all alone. So I was actually thankful to her.
It reads like I'm a world class simp, but I don't care. Improvement is a process.
I realized that money and looks are no longer my main problem. I need to learn this social stuff. And that's how I ended up on SoSuave.
