).

Well, I can say from my experiences that unrequited love is harsh, but it's better to know than to wonder forever. I've been shot down a few times, but usually that just worked in my favor (because there's always someone around the corner if you look). Actually, I found a girl a couple of years ago who I thought was "absolutely perfect" because we shared a lot of interests but the fact was her personality was awful. But then I got to know her roommate and now we're engaged (me and the roommate, not the one with the poor personality)

So you never know. Anyway, my advice is:
- Get to know the girl! It's not like you need to commit yourself to someone just by looks and Counterstrike. You could turn around one day and realize she's a total female of the dog species.
- Try being friends first. Really. Everyone says "Oh, yeah, being friends first doesn't work" or "She'll know all about you and it'll just make the breakup that much worse!" That line of thinking implies that there should necessarily BE a breakup... why would you want that? Then again, a lot of people talk out of their (expletive removed) and probably haven't had a successful relationship anyway. Sure, it's a little hard if a breakup occurs, but hey, if you're really friends, it'll probably all work out anyway.
- Lastly, be yourself. Lying just screws you over. Seriously. She'll find out somehow and then you're out on the curb. Find someone who you can confide in and you're set.

That's all I want to say. Good luck with your girl hunting!

P.S.- Age difference is only a big deal if it's more than a 50% difference, I think. Cuz the longer you live, the smaller that difference will be. I'm 22 and my fiancee is 20, and age has never really been an issue.

Sadly, once we knew we liked each other, (it was scary, art class, we locked eyes and it was like wow.) she had to move and transfer schools, needless to say i was crushed.

The same kind of thing happened to me, I knew this girl in the same class as me and from what I thought, she liked me, she always sat next to me in class and stuff and I liked her too, because she was a very caring and kind person, and she moved schools, and I haven't seen her since

And I wish I could, I wish I had much better courage at the time to ask her out. I've had a lot of times like this and its really annoying when you miss out on the opperunity.

Holy Crap!
I just had to put it somewhere.
A girl who ad a mojor crush on me in elementary school moved away about six years ago. She moved back this year and she just came to my door (she moved in down the street) and asked if I wanted to go out with her. In six years she has become HOT! So I'm having a great presidents day.

With me I've never dated a girl. I can talk but when it comes to going that one step further I just freeze up. I will say there is one girl that I can almost say definantly liked me. Every chance she got to shove me in the spot light or make fun of my mono-tone voice she did. My brother who worked with here also said she talked a lot. Its a real damn shame I never jumped on that oppertunity. I might see her down the road but I doubt it.

Yeah, love. It's something that's saved me a few times. Those fortunate to be at the Saturday chat remember me talking about Brittany. I love her beyond all. I can say this because we both gave up a lot to be together. But there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about her and sit dumbstruck wondering how I got so lucky as to find someone so great as her. She's my floating anchor...think about it...

hmmmm......love.......well, all I can say is I've pretty much given it up.....most of the girls I've ever tried to get close to have turned me down, so I pretty much just quit trying...besides, I'm sick of the today's mainstream society anyway, so I just keep to myself......if I happen to meet someone by fate, then so be it, but 'till then, I'm gonna continue pursuing other goals in life.....
*note: i=I'm not saying I hate everybody or anything, I'm just saying that when it comes to meeting girls, I've given up : (

There is this girl that i hang out with that i like so much it could be love, but we talk on the phone and all this stuff we agree on. It's wierd but she likes older guys and i am in her grade so maybe. But one of friends met this girl through a chain letter and they love each other so much it is crazy. As soon as he turns 18 he is moving out to illionios to live with her. They talk every day on there phones for like 5-8 hours it is scary how obssessed they are with each other.

You guys want some soap opera stuff?, I liked this girl, A LOT, told a couple people, word spread around a little, she figured it out, the night i was going to make my move on her, (Yeah i have a move) my best, or one of my best friends made a move. Yeah, I thought he knew for a litle while and he was just pissing me off, but i guess he wasnt now there going out, sigh. NEXT!

Btw guitar, someone had a subject sorta similar, and someone posted about be scared to talk to girls(or just about that) I told him to go for it. I was right in your shoes, before, my first post where i was nervous. BUT in my entire experiance in this, go for it. Worst case scenario is you get shot down, then you ask someone else, and make her ass jelous as hell. Also i HAVE BEEN in your position, i know how it feels its hard to talk to them, and you dont want to say anything, but think about the best case scenario, I think you know what im talking about
