<p>Well, maybe one day you'll understand ;)</p>
<p>It's awkward right after they say no, but afterwards just be like "Ok, that's cool. Oh well." Telling a self-depricating (although not miserable-sounding) joke right afterward might break the tension a little.</p>
<p>Honestly, she'll feel flattered and bad about turning you down. It really does kind of suck to have to reject people because you know it took them a lot of courage to do that. I've done it twice before, and in both cases me and the girl are still friends. </p>
<p>It will only be awkward and embarrasing if you make it awkward and embarrasing.</p>
<p>why has everyone been saying girls are hard to figure out? boys are the ones that always pretend to be other than who they are and so unpredictable and everything like that, another advice is don't like anyone, once you do you always feel like that person's glaring at you coldly, noticing every little imperfection about you, but then our brains can never quite tell where our hearts' going to lol :P</p>

<p>This is kinda a tangent but I hate it when guys talk to your best friends about things, when they don't take no for an answer, and when your best friends then tell them to never give up!! </p>
<p>Sorry but this one guy in my grade likes me and I despise him. He asked me out before Christmas but when I said no he didn't really take it as an answer. He proceeded to ask my best friend (who is also a VERY good friend of his) what he should do. For the past few months she's been coming to me telling me what he reveals to her. All of his passions and his thoughts about asking me to prom. When I heard about the prom thing I immediatly took action. The next day I made sure to talk to my friends (in front of his face) about how I hate prom and I hate dancing. So later on I saw him talking to my bff about how he was sad I said all that and he wished he had the guts to ask me out again. Apparently he doesn't like rejection. Well then guess what my friend tells him. "You should never give up." I felt like leaping in there and causing extreme physical pain to her right in front of my calc teacher. The previous day we had a conversation about how much I hate guys taht don't understand the meaning of "no". <em>Sigh</em> whatever, the guy hasn't done anything lately. I guess that's been because I've been ignoring him and being a complete ***** to him whenever I have the chance. Oh and I shamelessly flirt with the kid who sits next to me in history just so he can see I'm not interested in him. I think it's working. (Thank God)</p>
<p>Perhaps you're being a little merciless, Karen? </p>
<p>Oh, and watch out for that guy you flirt with in history. Surely you wouldn't want another icky boy pursuing you...would you? ;)</p>
<p>Merciless?</p>
<p>Boo freakin hoo! I'm still pretty sure it beats leading the dudes on.</p>
<p>haha, I am being horrible but I really don't care. I just talked to my friend and she said he said that he thought i was the nicest person he has ever met. I guess my plan is not working =( Oh and that guy i'm flirting with in history does like me. Well, i would think so by the way he acts and the fact that his best friend has been pressuring me to go out with him for the last two weeks. That flirting has also led me to promising him about 4 blow jobs (which he is never getting) just to get some popcorn. =/ Btw, that deal was his idea, not mine. ....I feel like a whore writing all this.</p>

<p>Oh lord yes.</p>
<p>Hey Karen, watcha doing this saturday night? Cause uh... if you're not busy or anything......</p>
<p>And, once again, the "unsubscribe from this thread" button proves its worth to the world</p>
<p>yea karen...are you busy saturday night? cuz just_browsing and I were thinking about something exotic...</p>
<p>^ Haha, Lmao</p>
<p>hey, guys, new question, what hints do you drop when you like a girl? There's this Asian guy in my class, and all of my friends think he likes me because he ( they pointed this out) laughs at my very stupid jokes, tries to make me feel better when I flunk IB tests ( I know I care TOO much abt my grades), is constantly trying to join us at lunch, stares at me in class( I don't really believe this because I can feel it when someone is staring at me). anyways, he also told this other boy that he likes the girl to drop hints and ask HIM out First....which I would never do..
anyways, I'm just curious if he likes me and what guys do in general when they like a girl. :)</p>
<p>^^I wanna know too!</p>
<p>Ask him out.</p>
<p>My lord I suck at romantic advice.</p>
<p>I'm sticking with the talking thing...also if she starts to like stuff you like.</p>
<p>I think she saw my NCAA bracket in my binder, and she made one up herself...(which is not that bad) so maybe she likes NCAA basketball, but I'm assuming it's because of me..but I could be wrong.</p>
<p>Way to jock my line krnpyschopath.</p>
<p>wait..what's wrong with girl asking out a guy??
and is it common?</p>
<p>My girlfriend asked me out and I don't see what's wrong with it.</p>
<p>Nothing is wrong with it at all; its kinda hot in my opinion.</p>
<p>The only "problem" is that girls don't do it very often because the tradition is that the guy does it. Honestly, girls are just as nervous about all this stuff as guys are.... so somehow it lands on us to do this part.</p>
<p>i don't see why everyone here is freaking out about reading signs that someone might like you and sending messages to let someone know you like/don't like them, etc. seriously, just act naturally! :) i hate when people aren't straightforward. also, if you like them, you don't need to overdo the nice thing, they won't appreciate it, and if they like you and you don't return the feelings, you tell them, and they still don't get it, just don't give them too much attention because they might misinterpret it. in karen's case, maybe tell your friend to give the guy the cold shoulder a little, without being mean, and then his means of communicating with you is severed.</p>
