I shouldn't bother doing things.

I am now toting around three giant molasses cookies with me in my backpack.

FUCK ME. This is so ver ver stupid and I knew it would happen.

So, yesterday Starbucks had those cookies...so I bought three, and then proceeded to class where I knew the girl would be, since we have that class together. And then, imagine, I didn't do anything with the cookies. I scarcely did anything with my mouth...like talk or anything.

I mean, I did talk to her. But ya...

This is stupid. I quit and I give up and so on.

I can't even eat the cookies myself because I can't eat wheat. They look verily delicious.....

dumb and doubly so.

  1. How well do you know this girl? Well enough to sit down and strike up a conversation without her going, "Hey, who the fuck are you?" If so, there's got to be *some* way to find out if she's at all into girls or curious about it or whatever, right? (I have no idea how you would do that, though.) That would be a start(maybe?), and if she's not then that settles that anyway.

    Or you could always do the meet up with a group of other people thing and see how that goes. That was always the least pressure.

    Perhaps. I'm not good at this, all of my relationships were quite accidental.

  2. I just reread that, yeah, so you talked to her.

    I have literally spent ten minutes trying to write some bit of reasonable advice, deleting every sentence I have written, ultimately giving you the crap above.

    You know what my absolute best advice is? Sometimes, you just gotta go "Fuck it" and do what you want. Maybe she'll dig it, maybe not. Either way, you're going after something you want. If you blow it, or she's not into it, you know what? There are other girls out there, three billion of them. And if you happen to be into guys, too, you've doubled your options.

    Easy for me to say, but I remember being in your boat. I don't know how to handle the anxiety of wondering if someone is gay or bi, but I would guess that's not what is making you most anxious. Like 99% of everyone else, it's putting yourself at risk, fear of rejection or failure or whatever for whatever reason. So just be like, fuck it. Let's say you embarrassingly go down in flames. Then what? You tried, at least.

    Gah, this advice is awful. Like I said, it's easy for me to say.

  3. No no this is not awful advice. It's perfect.
    I mean it. You're brilliant.
    It is exactly what I should do, and I'd love to say I will...I'll at least try in any case.

    It sure beats the hell out of any advice I've gotten so far, which mostly involves people saying "Fuck if I know what to do...good luck, bud."

    By the way, I ended up just giving her the darn cookies anyways...we went for coffee and I made up some dumb story about getting them for someone who I didn't end up seeing...

    So you can see my current strategy of patiently waiting for some sort of sign is clearly doing me noooo good.

    Thanks for the advice.
