So I'm talking with the female I currently like, (The one mentioned in 'post funny pictures for a pretty girl' thread) and she's talking about her quote "boyfriend" endquote that she's been interested in forever, but has never had a period of time where she's been able to talk to him. Basically, she wants this guy bad. So she's talking to me about thursday, in which she's going to tell him how she feels. Suddenly, we get on the subject of horiscopes. Now, I had planned that, after the entire thing with Jesse (This guy) wares off, I'd tell her how I feel. Her horiscope said that she'd be put off by the one she unmutually loved, and would be approached by someone unexpected, and that she should take advantage of the situation, because if she didn't, she'd be missing her 'true love.'

I just about fell out of my chair at that. Now I don't know how to approach her without seeming like I'm attempting to fulfil the proficy, even though it fortold amazingly accuratly. Of course, I don't fully believe in Horiscopes, and neither does she, but that only further moots my planned actions. I need suggestions.

Another thing I mentioned to a few massassians last night was that we had a convorsation that went something like this:

Girl: "You know me well Brandon, do you think Jesse, or any guy for that matter could like me?"
Brandon: "Of course I do."
Girl: "I mean like, love me."
Brandon: "I don't see how someone couldn't."
Girl: "What do you mean?"
Brandon: "I just think you need to take my word for it. Just know that you're completelly, and undeniably worth every minute of Jesse, or any other guy's time."

I was close to spilling the beans...

Any ideas? Current love woes?

First off, thought this was hillarious. He'd just tell you to slap a ho, anyways. (btw j/k, it was sarcasm and I hope PW can take a good ribbing ;))

Anyways, I'd say that things are set up pretty good for you now. I wouldn't wait too long, though, because things might not go how you expect when she talks to this guy. BUT don't give away too much, either. Yes, this is similiar to PWs views, but rather than not share anything, let her know how you feel without coming off as too vulnerable/needy. I don't know your personality, and there's a good chance you wouldn't do that anyways, but you asked for advice so yah.

Either way, good luck with the girl!! Keep us posted:)

If she really likes the other guy, telling her how you feel is only going to ruin the friendship you have with her now.

this is possible, but not always the case. At one point, I had a huge thing for a certain girl. She already had a b/f, and I told her how I felt anyways. At the time we were really good, if not best friends. 3 years later, I no longer feel that way about her, she's still one of my best friends and in fact...I'm currently living with her and her current b/f (sharing an apt).

I'm not planning to tell her anything until she's wholly over this guy. That could be never, and I'm perfectly willing to accept that. That's WHY I'm not telling her yet. I'm usually blunt and open about these things with my friends, but because she has feelings for someone, and I've been a major support, I wouldn't want to complicate things for her, so I'm holding it back until I'm sure it won't HURT anything between me and her, or her and him.

I wish the best for you. However, I wouldn't get your hopes up. If she is talking to you about other guys she likes, then you are definitely in the friends zone and that's next to impossible to escape(I'm not talking about casual friendship zone here. I'm talking deep, long lasting friendship zone). Usually, the only chance you'd have of escaping it means a lot of time apart and a serious personality and character change on your part within that time, essentially becoming a new person that she has to get to know all over again. But doing that just for a girl is unhealthy.

(edit: I'm such a grammar nazi)

I must agree, but this girl seems like we're at the perfect distance to where it'd work. Tha'ts just me, though.

Like I said, go for it, but don't get your hopes up.

I'm with Kieran. Go into it with low expectations. The plane that gets shot down at a higher altitude will take the most damage on impact (sorry, strange anology thingy). Just build up to the moment slowly (but not too slowly, as I have learned the hard way). I think you'll know the right time to ask. If God forbid something fouls up, with her being your close friend, she probably won't take it the wrong way, and you will be in the same place that you are today, good friends.

Thats actually a very good analogy...

I agree that you are way deep into the friendship zone. Very deep. No matter how much you may think that you are "clicking" or whatever, I doubt she has romantic interest in you, she clearly has feelings for this other guy...Thats just my opinion though I could be wrong of course.

Do you wish Jesse assassinated?

No, jesse's a nice guy.

By the way, she and I got very... intimate today, and a bunch of guys got jealous and came over trying to flirt with her, which only secluded us more when she got them to go away. We ended up snoogling in the corner during our biology lab.

And her bf didnt mind?

Again, they're not technically dating yet, and he just got back into town today.

Uhh, Go.. kill something? I have no carrier as a counselor.
