@bleeder, you have your whole life ahead of you, and like I always say in real life. Relationships are anchors. Best happened when you want to settle.

Huh. Thats a really interesting way of looking at it. Is that fire religion-influenced or is it all you?

just me. I don't see the point in getting bogged up in a relationship when all it would cause is worry and trouble. Better to get into a relationship when you feel ready to deal with the stuff that comes with the package.

I guess that can be drawn from the fact that all I have is myself *shrug

It's good to have yourself. A lot of people don't even have that

I mean there are a LOT of people without a lot of self-confidence, a lot of self-doubt, and don't really have their own backs. Its heartbreaking.

 

I know. That's what friends are for.

So, one of my friends had his birthday today. He turned 16. His girlfriend's birthday is on Wednesday. She's turning 16. 

To me, I find that so romantic for some reason. That two people in a relationship could be born so close together, and end up getting together. 

It sucks that they won't really be able to celebrate her birthday since there's a big band thing going on and they're both in band. Oh well.

[marsoupial they/them]

As of today I have begun actively searching for a significant other.

Wish me luck.

[A Budgie she/her]

Ew, romance...
I'm sorry, but as a single-and-fine-with-it budgie, I had to say that.
Yeah, have fun with your romance-stuff...

Thanks, we need it, it's hard  

Enjoy yourself as well  

[Darkness Ascendant he/him]

I agree with budgie tbh, just a another way to kill time in my opinion.

and what happened to your boyfriend @bleeder?

[Erunion he/him]

@Darkness Ascendant - If you scroll back a few pages you'll see that Bleeder broke up. 


So, uh, in other news, I have something kinda strange, kinda interesting and kinda good? I don't know? going on. I went from being super single, and that not likely to change, to suddenly I am now talking to two girls. It is very strange, and not at all intentional, and I'm not really sure what to do. 

I've known one girl who I am a little bit interested in. Not hardcore crushing, but generally 'she seems nice, and I wouldn't mind getting to know her better'. I began to suspect she was interested last time we were together - we were working together and she showed some possible signs of interest - but she could just have been being friendly. Fast forward a couple weeks, I post some good news on my facebook wall (huh... which I should probably post in the good news thread  ) and she PM's me and we start talking. Have been ever since (this was thursday). Just casually talking, but yeah. She definitely seems interested. 

Now, that was Thursday. Friday it was the birthday of a girl who I definitely am interested in/have a crush on. Normally when you click the button on facebook to wish them a happy birthday it goes to their timeline and is public. I had just woken up with no where near enough sleep, so I tapped the button on my phone and wished her a happy birthday. However, for whatever reason facebook decided that I should send a private message instead of do a timeline post (probably her privacy settings, but either way I guess facebook decided to be a wingman...). So the message was sent, and she then responded with a conversation starter and again, we've been chatting since. 
However, the topics we've been chatting on are more neutral, and she hasn't shown as clear signs of interest (plus it's been a slower, sparser conversation - a long response once or twice a day instead of more chatty). 

So yeah. 

Here's the thing - I am more interested in the second girl. We seem more compatible, and a few other things as well. However, I don't know if she's interested in me or not. I do know with 90% confidence that the first girl is interested. 
Interesting things: I don't know either of them very well. Obviously my opinions could change upon further notice. I also don't know if I'm in a good position to be pursuing a relationship anyway. Furthermore, I could be completely wrong on everything. 

Mostly, right now I'm a little lost. 

To repeat, none of this has been intentional, I am fine with just being friends for now with both/either and keeping it friendly, but I don't want to burn bridges. 

Also, one thing that's playing through/preying on my mind right now - I first met the second girl back in the fall of 2011. We were in a class AND on a bus together every week, but I was too socially awkward to take advantage of the situation despite being interested. Later on that semester, the woman who would become my girlfriend for four years (now ex, obviously) and I met and hit it off, but it was definitely her showing interest, and then me realizing I was interested and going from there. 
So here I am, wondering if I missed a really good opportunity that first time, wondering if I'll make the same mistake again (go for the girl who is more interested in me, rather than this girl). 


I almost preferred being a single with no prospects. More depressing, but far less confusing. 

[Darkness Ascendant he/him]

hmm. @Erunion I suggest waiting for a bit, and seeing which one of the two you prefer. If it's person 1, then don't worry about person 2 because it seems unclear whether she is interested in you. If it's person 2, then let person 1 off gently. 

[Queen Elsa Steelheart she/her]

I'm ridiculously in love with my boyfriend.... YAY

This seems like the appropriate place for this:

 

[Darkness Ascendant he/him]

Alone again

[Silverblade5 he/him]

And now, after some time, we are now just friends.  Very close friends, but now no longer dating. I am ok with this.
