I'm interested in a girl.

[emit_remmus]

I'm interested in a girl in class, but I'm afraid that she may have a boyfriend. I don't know, but I seem to always find interest in the ones that have boyfriends. I'm afraid I may come off as a creep, and I'm afraid she may say no.

 

But I'm not afraid to talk or tell a joke or two, and she laughed.

 

Should I really try anything, seeing as this-->

 

Is how I feel about myself right now? Or should I just go grow a tree?

Well you could wonder all your life what could have been ... or you can see what may be. I vote for the second approach

 

Take it easy and be her friend first. What do you have to lose? A bit of fear. What do you have to gain? her affection and your possible happiness.

 

It's a no-brainer in my book.

The second approach? So I should grow a tree first? Or just keep talking to her? I'm also afraid I might not be able to care for someone enough.

[i1dr]

The tree is optional and can be done independently of the girl at any time

But I suspect that she is a bit more important to you than the growing of a tree - so I suggest you put your fears away and your best foot forward - towards her!

The issue here is, it would seem, more about you. How much worry do you plan to spend your time doing?

 

My dad used to say " A brave man dies only once - a coward dies a thousand deaths". Think about it, man.

you won't know if you care for someone enough? well, you won't know for sure if you don't make a move. too much what ifs in this here. you need to act on it or kick yourself forever for not doing anything.

She might like neurotic men. I know I do.

If you don't know yourself, how can you let her know? Before you commit to anything, you need to straighten your own life out first, or your being very unfair to a prospective partner.

What kind of tree would make a good house plant? I would like one that is low maintenence but physically attractive at the sametime. I had a venus fly trap once before; it was such a vagina dentata.

It doesn't matter. Get anything that appeals to you. This is only one of many ways to break throught the shell you have built up around yourself.
