Thanks for your helpful advice on how to be funny, though, I'll be sure to make my future work f*ck*ng h*lari*us just for you.

Isn't it funny how sexists, even if they don't know that you're a girl, still can't talk to you?

Wherereas your mass quotation here:
viewtopic.php?p=16043539#p16043539

Was a bit vague let's say. Not that the "ehmergerd sex is so badz" needed a severe popping, but come on, at least Bottle was on point. And truthful. I mean.. when's the last time anyone here looked at a WNBA player and went "Mmmm, I'd like her to carry my child, she's got superior physical traits", broadly speaking anyway?


Blame Shakespeare for that quote.

Also nothing wrong with having preferences :p.
So then that begs the question... would you? A WNBA player I mean?

Personally, I've never seen what the big deal with "I love you" is. I tell my friends I love them, so I don't see how this could be that different. I guess I can't really help you, then...

It wasnt exactly enemy lines, it was a TOTALLY another part of the battle, but I was in the correct side. Dont know nothing about what the others did that day we never really spoke about it.

Shit or get off the pot.

There's no shortcut. There is no way to avoid the possibility of rejection. She might love you back, or she might not, so talk to her about it if you want to find out.

In practise this cant work especially if you have Level 4 shyness where the only thing you can say to a girl is hello when you meet face to face.

First of all ask yourself why ?

Is it because of fear of rejection ?
Maybe because of fear of loss of friendship ?
Something else ?
or just shyness ?

Either way, there is no "easy" solution. It is simple though. Just tell her and don't make a big deal out of it. If you are afraid that she might stop being friends with you, well then is the risk worth the reward ? you decide.

If your shyness only kicks in when talking to girls, then you have a lot of growing up to do before you will be ready to have a relationship.

It isnt that bad.

It just kicks when I talk to girls I really really really like. I will be able to have some short normal conversation but my face will usally be bright red as some of my friends have noticed.

So when you're around someone whose opinion really matters to you, you find yourself more anxious about making a good impression. Sounds pretty normal.

However, my original advice stands. There's no shortcut to this. You either say something, or you don't. You will most likely experience rejection at least once or twice in your lifetime. This, too, is normal. It does not mean there is something wrong with you, and it does not mean there is something wrong with the person who rejects you.

You can choose to not say things to people you like, if that's what you want to do. (Just be careful not to become yet another bitter "Nice Guy" who resents all the women who dare to go out with the "alpha" guys who actually, ya know, ask the girls out in the first place.) You will miss out on opportunities, but you also will avoid rejection. It is up to you whether you want to make that trade.
