<p>Good luck to you, my friend. I hope things work out with her, and I hope that either way, you’re successful in finding a kind of peace with yourself, and end up doing something fulfilling with your life, whatever that may be.</p>
<p>Thank you, for now I know what I need to do.</p>
<p>Play DDR a lot.</p>
<p>It’s worth a try.</p>
<p>A black guy who can’t get a girl…</p>
<p>What has this world come to?</p>
<p>Wait until college. That’s where all the REAL fun is. I can’t wait for it…</p>
<p>Yo, I know many black people who can’t get girls. It’s not uncommon.</p>
<p>I know many people who can’t get girls. It’s not uncommon.</p>
<p>especially on CC.</p>
<p>^^^ I can’t get a guy, but that’s cause I live in the South and dig the white meat.</p>
<p>Sounds like MIThopeful is suffering from a bad case of Genius’s Remorse. Being a hotshot mathmetician in high school isn’t working out for you, eh? Yeah, math is pretty bad at satisfying our testosterone-induced cravings for sex and social power.</p>
<p>^ Always politics and political sex scandals.</p>
<p>^^ LOL, if you want to call it that.</p>
<p>
Haha what’s that supposed to mean</p>
<p>I was going to ask the same thing.</p>
<p>^ I just realized that your username is SandwichGirl and your location says “in the kitchen”</p>
<p>I was headed down that path before I joined cross country in 8th grade. Becoming passionately involved in something non-academic or non-college-admissions-based is a great way to prevent yourself from becoming a social recluse. I’ve found that in order to be truly successful and content in high school, you have to have a balance of academics and social life. For me, being part of a team whose goals were entirely non-academic helped me avoid becoming the academic overachiever that everyone loves to hate. Just know that there is a time and place for each, and neither has to dominate your life. If that means forsaking a couple hours of writing proofs to go out and do something with your friends, then so be it. </p>
<p>For example, I have two books to read by the time I go back to school in two weeks. Today, instead of hunkering down and reading them, I went wakeboarding with my teammates all day. Sure, I may have set myself back an entire day on my reading, and consequently jeopardized my chances at acing the summer reading test, but wakeboarding with friends is far more fulfilling than another A on another test. It sounds like you need the kind of fulfilment that academics cannot offer.</p>
<p>tl;dr screw your studies. Go out and be a teenager. Chase the girl; the worse thing that could happen is she says no, and you move on to another.</p>
<p>I guess that describes my life right there. I guess I have to live a little…</p>
<p>Live like today never happened.</p>
<p>Have you tried Extenze? It builds confidence.</p>
<p>How ironic that right now I happen to be reading “The Five People You Meet in People Right Now” for English and I stumbled upon something that the Blue Man, the first guy that Eddie meets in heaven, says: “The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone.”</p>
