I realy need help!!!!

Wolf

OK heres the story.

There is this girl iv known since i was 16 (im 22 now). She is everything to me. Iv loved her for years and we are realy good friends. Im pretty good with girls in general but when it comes to girls I realy like I go all stupid and shy. So with her im totaly usless. But thats not realy the problem.

We kissed once when we were about 18 but she went back over to Scotland (Uni) and notthing more was said I was too scared. Then about a month ago we both went up to see a friend in Colraine and we ended up sharing a bed and stuff happened (no sex but more than kissing) and the next morning we talked and it was akward. We both just said that we were realy drunk.

Enter present day. I recently moved up to Belfast and she has moved up to Belfast as well for some course she is doing. Well we all went out last firday and took some E's (I know but its part of the story). I told her how I honestly felt. She just sat there and held me and didnt say anything at all. I said to her "are you not going to say anything?" She said "your just saying that because your all pilled up". Notthing more happened that night. We have been talking since and I havent brought it up and niether has she but I know it on her mind in one shape or the other. I intend to bring it up when im sober and im going to soon.

You also need to understand I love this girl. She means so much to me that I cant continue me life untill I have some sort of closure. Iv been hitting the drink hard all week just to ease the pain to be honest. I dont think shes going to say yes to me but I realy need to know.

Also lots of people always comment on the way we look at each other and that we would be good together etc. They always seem to know thats she is very special to me.

Id just like to hear your thoughts on this and am I right to follow up on what I said the other night?

Seraphina

ok...

She said "your just saying that because your all pilled up"

this could be
a) she really likes you, but couldn't believe you were serious because you were pilled up

b) she doesn't like you and was just trying to avoid the subject

it can really go either way
for your own sake(for fear of going mad)you should tell her. it will probably shake your friendship for a while, but hopefully if your good enough friends, you can overcome it.

sorry my advice is useless:)

good luck!

One of my best friends is female and the comment

Also lots of people always comment on the way we look at each other and that we would be good together etc.

is said to me a lot too. Point is it dosent matter what others think, what matters is what you and she think. The phrase "Say it when your sober" springs to mind. Unless you learn to mind read its the best way to find out. What have you got to lose?
If she dosent have the same feeling for you at least you find out and can then move on.
Tell her how you feel when your talking to her next and ask her how she feels about you.
If she feel like you then......

This is also something im terrified by but as u said for my sanity and health iv got to. Your advice is good tho thanks

Wolf, the impression i get from your post is that you just want us to tell you to go for it, and the impression i get from what you told us is that she likes you as well (the fun in bed).

Just suck it up and tell her (that is what you wanted to hear isnt it ?). But seriously, tell her, its obviously messing you up(drinking hard.....)

TELL HER

Wolf

Hi UK Wolf,
I just stumbled across your thread from the main page of most recently posted threads. I was caught by the subject line, but I expected it to be about something other than personal issues.

Anyhow, after reading your post, I felt I had to reply. All the advice given so far has been very good and I don't want to repeat what has been said already too much, but I think I have something relevant to add.

First of all, I want to say I really empathise with you. I am in a similar situation with a girl that I just could not forget about but I also could never find the right time to tell her how I felt. I knew that I was afraid of rejection, and that was at least partially preventing me from telling her how I felt. I found myself in the purgatory of wondering "what if", and after almost two years of agonising I realised that at least after a rejection I can get over it and move on, and just like always, the world keeps spinning and eventually things don't seem so bad at all. That's infinitely better than letting life go by because you were afraid to take a risk. I didn't want to end up growing old and being the boring old fart drinking at the bar all day telling anyone who'll listen about the one he let get away.

I recently found the courage to meet her, and it didn't go exactly as I had hoped it would. I told her in a round about way, and she seemed to dodge the issue. I thought about what I would do - or have done before - when in her position. If a girl that I'm not crazy about is trying to tell me she loves me, and I don't want to hurt her feelings, I know I would try to dodge the issue - both to save her feelings and prevent awkwardness that I would have to deal with. So, I think for me, if I want to know for sure, I can try again, or I can write her a letter so that I can think about what exactly it is that I want to say when there is less pressure, and also I can save her the awkwardness of trying to spare my feelings.

In deciding that I really do prefer to know if she feels the same about me, I have had to face the very real possibility that she doesn't. So this is my advice to you (for what it's worth): Go and find out how she feels in an unambiguous environment. Be clear and honest when you speak to her. But be prepared for the likelihood that you will be rejected. And if that happens, realise that you will get over it, and from then on things can only get better.
That's all for now. Take care of yourselves, and each other...
Colin.

Wolf

Wow. Thats pretty good stuff Colin. Im trying to get off work early today to meet her. Its funny I have lots of girls chasing me...... honest dont know why? but the one girl I want is hard to get. Well im going to risk it today or tomoz as soon as I get a chnace thanks Colin I need that.

smiles

I'd tell her. I've used the line "you're only saying it 'cause you're drunk" to see if they will say it when they are sober, i guess i was scared to make the commitment of believing them.

Try

Conor, you met me not long after I was getting over a very similar situation. I still regret not telling her. You make the same mistake and I'll come up there and kick your head in

Thats probably part of the reason you want her.

There is this girl iv known since i was 16 (im 22 now). She is everything to me. Iv loved her for years and we are realy good friends. Im pretty good with girls in general but when it comes to girls I realy like I go all stupid and shy. So with her im totaly usless.

Put yourself out of your head. Concentrate on her and banish any and every doubt or insecurity from your mind. It sounds difficult but its actually not. Bear in mind that she probably has tonnes of insecurities etc floating around her head too.

I told her how I honestly felt. She just sat there and held me and didnt say anything at all. I said to her "are you not going to say anything?" She said "your just saying that because your all pilled up". Notthing more happened that night. We have been talking since and I havent brought it up and niether has she but I know it on her mind in one shape or the other. I intend to bring it up when im sober and im going to soon.

Sorry to be the one to say this but if you have no real relationship history, i.e. gf & bf for a time, then outright telling her you love her is probably a very bad idea. If she isnt ready for that kind of announcment it could have serious negative effects.

I dont understand why these things have to be rushed. Just ask her out, have some fun, have a relationship for a while, see if you still love her then If you do, tell her at that stage.

You also need to understand I love this girl. She means so much to me that I cant continue me life untill I have some sort of closure. Iv been hitting the drink hard all week just to ease the pain to be honest. I dont think shes going to say yes to me but I realy need to know.

Theres nothing worse than not knowing where you stand. Just remember aim for degree's of knowledge, rather than black and white results.

"Hitting the drink hard all week"
Bad thinking batman. Sure go out on the piss and get wasted with your mates, but leave it there. Drinking as a crutch to support you through problematic times is an incredibly easy habit to pick up but incredibly difficult to break.

All the above said, it sounds like you have better than 50% odds in your favour. I just hope you think through what your going to say to her and tread carefully.

Let us know what happens.

this always happens wen ur obsessed wit one particular girl, dunno why, its one of gods little tricks.

Wolf

Thanks alot everyone. I was on the phone to her there now shes not back untill monday or tomoz. But ill let ya know whats happening and thanks all for the advice. Cheers Sico, Neil and Colin in particular for the good advice and hope to see u lot soon lads.


I love you guys

Mutz

I once told an old girlfriend I loved her (which I really and truelly did, still think of her to this day.... 4 years later after we broke up). Her response..... "I hope your not offended, but I dont feel the same..."

Hmmmm.... the feeling similar to a kick between the legs is how I felt, and the worst thing was, we were on the DIT mystery tour to Blazers in Longford when this happened, so we had to drive all the way back to Dublin with that awkward politeness. Stayed together for about another 3 months after that

Hope everything goes ok Wolf

Theres alot of history. Alot of very nearlies and stuff like that. Also I know for sure that she is thinking about it, but im not sure in what way. Either that night I told her she didnt want anything to happen cuz of the drug or because she didnt want anything to happen. It was very odd she was very cuddely and kept looking at me. But then again we were all wasted so it wasnt the time for it me thinks.....one way or the other.

You have seen me out Neil and should know what im like. Its not that i was going out just for that but I was going out with mates but in the back of my mind I drank so much on the past few nights for that reason. Also iv been down that road before and I know its not good believe me.

Also what you said about not rushing it I know I cant be too heavy but at the saem time it been going on too long and something need to be done one way or the other. It like some soilder that has ganggreen (I know crapy example) he has to lose his leg or he will die. He has to go through the pain before he can continue on.

Well again thanks all she is coming in on the train soon I have to phone her and hopfully going for coffee or something. But ill let you all know thanks.

Dunno bout everyone else,, but the anticipation is killing me. Will she or won't she?

I'd like to think she'll reciprocate. A happy ending to one to the endless relationship dilemmas on the 'personal issues' board would be nice.

GL Wolfie.

Kell

Yeah the tension is killing me too- make sure you dont pop any pills before hand Wolf, or down a shed load of gargle. Make it honest, make it nice and go get er.

Typedef

You know.

If you love the girl, you should chase her.

Simple logic that. Either she turns you down or she doesn't, again simple logic.

Notice that you and she have had sexual relations of a sort, so it is highly likely that the girl in question is at least (not) unameniable.

E is shìt.

It messes with your kidneys, is 'bad' for your heart (no matter what your neighbourhood friendly yoke dealer says) and taking drugs often gets in the way of males and females having 'normal' relationships, because the time you should be spending in bed with each other is spent dancing till 6am on E with speed, acid and or Coke if you can afford it.

Oh and I forgot to mention.

Quite often, girls end up running off with he who has the best drug connections, because in the world of the druggie having good connections is the equivalent of having a fast BMW in college in terms of chick pulling potential.

Yes, my girlfriend ran off with my local pusher's son.

are you sure it was because of the pills?
or was it to do with you being a psychopathic axe wielding maniac on the run from the police in seven countries and having a live chiken fetish?

oh,and to keep it on track, just talk to her when both sober, while drinking coffee, ina public place, in the middle of the day, when its raining, during the week, with your wellies on.

Typedef

Back then we called them yokes.... and yes.
Well to be honest... more his mammies coke connections.....
/less said the better.

shurg.... party I suppose.
Note: I fought the law and umm the axe was necessary.... €ircom were following me.

Yes, that could work, but, remember to pay for the coffee... and buying flowers wouldn't hurt.... then hurl yourself on the ground and beg her to take pity on you and take you to her bed......
apparently this works...

when its raining, during the week, with your wellies on.

And now we get an unwanted glimpse into wwm's wellie fascination..... I'm officially weired out.
