Hay, its the other way around for me! Im really popular and stuff, and lots of girls fancy me, but i don't show any interest in them, and ignore people alot (sounds big headed, and it probably is, but its true), which i know is a bad habit, but i find its a way of showing them in not interested. However, there is this one girl i like, and i guess people might say shes a dork and stuff, but i really like her, and im sure she likes me, but in public i just can't even talk to her, or look at her for very long, because in public i feel i have this image to display, and it makes me really annoyed at myself, because im trapped within my own image and stuff
However, i got her name for msn and that, and within a few days of having breif convosations with her, i asked her to the prom, and she was like "Im so sorry, im already going with my ex and im like WTF! Anyway, i thaught that maybe she thaught i was a jerk or something because of the way i act in public, and i thaught fair enough, and just stayed breif friends with her online. Then a week or so later, she found out i really did like her, and she was like being really nice to me, and flirting with me in school etc, like she used to do, and i ignored her again, like i used to do, althaugh i was a tad confused oh why she was flirting again with me (and why she was doing it in the first place), and then she said to me how she thaught i was using her or something before, and she thaught i was a jerk and stuff (cause thats what Jerks do), and so i explained to her that i really do like her and stuff, and we became really good friends (and i think she hinted for me to ask her to the prom again), and over the christmas holidays, i found out loads about her (like that she was shy and would never ask a boy out - which is maybe a hint she wanted me to ask her again, but i didn't), and i asked her as a friend if she wanted to go to town with me and my friends, but she said she was busy, then the a week or so later i asked her if she wanted to come to the cinema with me and my friends, and she said she was ill, and i thaught OK; shes either shy, she doesn't like me, or shes genuinly ill. Then like a day or so later, she was in a terrible mood, crying and saying how she wnated to ocmmit suicide, so i conforted her, and tried to make her feel better, and she said i was such a great mate for caring for her, as shes never told anybody her problems before (not even her parents), and she said the reason she didn't go to town and the cinema with me is because she has over protective parents and stuff, so i thaught "OK, this is looking very good now, im gonna ask her out on tuesday - when we go back to school)". Alas, tuesday came, and i acted like a jerk again, and ignored her and didn't start any convos with her etc, then today (wednesday) i still havn't done anything, and i keep hating myself for acting the way i do, but i can't help it!
So now you might know what its like on the other side; when people ignore you, it doesn't mean they don't like you, they might infact really like you! Best of luck
