Probably won't do anything.

Valentine's Day is stupid.

Why should it take a holiday for someone to do something nice for someone else?

And yes, I'm quite capable of getting a date, I just don't see a need for an annual day to show appreciation.

I found a Heart in San Francisco. I'm going eat it with some fava beans and some root beer.
Then I

I'm afraid I'm with Scotty on this one.

There is one girl at my church I'm interested in, but if she returns the feeling, she doesn't show it. I haven't grown the balls to ask her out or anything, so I think I'll just be patient and skip this year.

Valentine's Day is stupid, anyway.

Lol bibbit, that's pretty much exactly how I feel. Except I think it's kind of obvious that I like her (I think.. everyone else thinks so but idk about her) and if she's waiting for me to ask or anything, and I don't do it before or on V-day, I might as well not do it for a long time. You know, because that's like, the optimal time to do something like that and if I didn't do it then, I pretty much phail.

idk yet though. My best friend thinks she's pretty hot (and trust me, he's picky with girls) and it seems like everyone else is watching to see if I ask her out. But I've never done it before (ever) and I'm also scared to death of getting REJECTED!.

Off-topic: my birthday's the day before Valentine's day.

My concern is that she might like someone else. That just makes it even harder to tell her anything.

Heh, lol@your b-day.

My bro's gf's bday is 3 days after V-day.

Fixed.

1. She's not from church, but rather school.

2. >_>

Guys, seriously. Don't be afraid to ask them out on a date or atleast to get some coffee or something. You have nothing to lose. It actually shows the girl that you have the confidence to approach her. Trust me, it's better than just waiting. Waiting almost always gets you nowhere and from what you've already experienced, nowhere is lonely.

Mine doesn't know I like her, and has a habit of punching me in the shoulder.

Ha! Valentine's Day! Its pointless! Its a waste of resources! It backhands the bachelors!

I hate going to an all-guys high school

*cries*

On a serious note, I don't even know where the kids in my town go; and if I did, goddamn it would be awkward. I'm counting on college... yeah....

Ha! All-guys high school. Well, there is one option left for you if you want to get into a relationship. I think you know what it is.

I think I'll talk to one of my friends; he's popular and has been through this thing tons of times before, maybe I can get some advice from him.

Kibito already gave you the best advice, just be confident and ask her on a date. Girls crave attention, but don't give it to them in spades. Be a strong, confident person...just don't smother them with affection or they'll lose interest because they realize they don't have to work for it.

good advice, GTAF
My plan, find a rose, get a girl.
I'm trying hard to not focus on the situation in which she says no

Focus on the part where she says yes, u go out for 3 years, and end up gettting married with 3 kids.

to everyone who is afraid to ask her out if she says no then unless she is a jackass then she wont act negatively or creeped out around you and if she does say no then i think that being stuck in friend zone wondering about what couldve been is worse

Aumaan Anubis · Post by **Aumaan Anubis** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 3:46 pm

My only concern about asking my "special someone" out is that if she says no, she won't outright say it. She'll say she's busy and stuff, and can't make it.

Then I have false hope that she actually couldn't make it, and she still could return the feelings.
If she says no, I will specifically ask her if she's telling a lie to spare my feelings, or if she's being serious.
I'll probably just ask if there's a chance of her saying yes at a different time. You can't really avoid that one...

Plus, if she says no, I'll probly just bug and annoy her on AIM as I usually do, we'd be friends again in no time

whatever you do do not bug and annoy (found that ot the hard way) her dont ask her out ask her to be your gf thats also pretty hard to avoid

Aumaan Anubis · Post by **Aumaan Anubis** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 4:04 pm

"bug and annoy" as in, talk to her on AIM and whatnot, like we usually do.

I was pretty positive that the steps in a relationship were

"Out" --> "Girlfriend"

Dunno if the other way has any other unforseen effects?

These are all horrible ideas for any sort of relationship (even as friends). She'll see you as a weak, desperate individual which is a major turnoff.
