You know, I was all ready and about to go through with this before you made me think.
I'm starting to feel like I should just not say anything.
As of now, it's not like the friendship is in jeopardy, or anything like that.
I feel like this might just do more against it than for it.
Be like me, don't say anything, regret it forever.
Protip: moral is to not be like me.
Are you saying you still haven't asked the girl from across the hall? Unless you know for absolute fact that she's dating someone exclusively (and not just some douchy bro who already has a girlfriend saying he's going to bang her. Fuck that guy. His intentions are in no way honorable, so you are under no obligation to honor them. And if he wants to start some shit, you have worse dirt on him than he could have on you), there's no time limit on asking her out. Just do it.
Anyway Facekillz statement about not saying anything reminded me of how I kind of wanted to someone some advice last Friday and Saturday when I was feeling really terrible about not being able to talk to the girl from work who I really like but who went away to school before I could ask her out.
So when I learned I wouldn't be able to see her again for some months, I was upset, but decided to be patient, since I knew she would eventually come back and I've been able to wait for a lot of things in my without getting impatient like most people do for various things. But this was different. Any time I couldn't distract my mind with other things, all I could think about was how much I wanted to see her. And there was a point last Friday where I couldn't even bring myself to engage in any sort of distraction.
But this seems to me like way to much attachment, seeing as I didn't know her all that well and we hadn't spoken all that much when she was around; I didn't even know she would be heading off to college in September, for instance.
So, anyway, the thing I wanted to ask advice about last Saturday but didn't want to actually receive advice about was the fact that I was thinking about seeing if I could find her on Facebook. The reason I ultimately decided not to was 1) I don't feel it's appropriate to make a friend request of someone with talking to them about it in person beforehand if you haven't already known them for years. 2) I remember some time ago Vector said (I think it was in a life advice thread) that it's a bad idea to ask someone out over Facebook. 3) If I ask her out and she says no, it would be super awkward. If I don't ask her out it would probably be awkward too. 4) I don't know where she ended up going to school; she might not even be in the same state as me. So even if she said yes, it's likely we couldn't even meet up to do anything.
