Conflicted Feelings: Moving On from High School

In summary, moving on from high school can be a time of conflicting emotions for many individuals. While it marks the end of a significant chapter in one's life, it also brings about the excitement and uncertainty of new beginnings. The nostalgia for the past and the fear of the future can create a sense of conflict within oneself. However, it is important to embrace these conflicting feelings and use them as motivation to grow and move forward. Whether it is pursuing higher education, starting a career, or exploring new opportunities, the process of moving on from high school is a natural and necessary part of life.

In case you haven't noticed: all women are crazy, love is a crazy game; it is the game that created all of us. There is no exit from the game. Her behavior is typical. Now she is coming after you again - let her in, but don't confront her about her behavior, don't act as if she has wounded you in the past in any way, even if she did. Love can be a very beautiful thing, too. Now is the time to accept the affection that she offers you.

Well, you definitely came on too strong with 'thinking about you every second' and chocolates (rather: your smile brightens the day) so she got scared, you gave her space, so now she is coming back with curiosity :)

Women have caused so much chaos in what was an orderly life for me, but i wouldn't stop chasing them for the world. Absolutely crazy isn't it.

No-one is right for me, I am a little too eccentric for most people tastes...aint that right Andy?...and tempermental, and unfocused, and other things like that which mean that i am all over the place.

Stupid one type of person tastes that women have..
 
  • #602
lol, all women like you pick, but as you said they think you abit eccentric, or to put it in womans words, MAD. But 21 years and 7 months time...

Well, Prudens, you're one of the fortunate ones. At least, unlike me, you like a girl who doesn't have a boyfriend (I haven't read where you said that she did). So you have a chance to get with her.

Girls are like internet domains, I once heard, because all the good one's and the one's you want are already taken. And, I'd like to add, you must be quick if someone loses one, for it wouldn't be long before someone else gets it before you.

You just need to play the odds and keep looking - there are plenty of free women, unless they are quarks.

because all the good one's and the one's you want are already taken.

...or maybe the ones you want are taken, and you only think they are good if they are. You need to change your way of thinking. I did.

Lol... If they were domains... There must be a place to register them right? :D And you can sell them too lol at high prices.

It never ceases to amaze me that when a guy is a little bit aloof. The female homo sapien, just eat it up like mozzarella cheese on pizza.
 
  • #612
What does aloof mean??
 
  • #613
Not really caring. Kind of removed emotionally.
 
  • #614
Yep. Just don't be too aloof, you don't want to be an emotionless android.

We shall know by this fellow: the players cannot keep counsel; they'll tell all.

OPHELIA
Will he tell us what this show meant?

HAMLET
Ay, or any show that you'll show him: be not you ashamed to show, he'll not shame to tell you what it means.

OPHELIA
You are naught, you are naught: I'll mark the play.

Prologue
For us, and for our tragedy,
Here stooping to your clemency,
We beg your hearing patiently.

Exit

HAMLET
Is this a prologue, or the posy of a ring?

OPHELIA
'Tis brief, my lord.

HAMLET
As woman's love.



Heheheheheheheh

Now why does a self-respecting girl like me raises to the bait again and wants to tell you guys how to win hearts? Ahhhhhhhh must be because of Mr. Professional's irresistable aloofness :biggrin: ! BTW, by aloofness do you mean "mystery", like Johnny Depp?

Anyway, I have a story to tell. My brother had had a couple of heart breaks and never had a girlfriend, love unreturned you see. Since last year he has been out of a job as a designer because of the economy. Any yet just when he was "down and out" he met his girlfriend - while doing voluntary work for the house of the age where she works as the administrator. And a very nice girl too, mild-tempered, prim and proper and very pretty too. Inspired? :wink:

hey ****... why don't you just go and ask her out... ask her if she wants to go to prom or some club. Offer her ride to her home or anything that starts a conversation. Life is short so don't waste your time on stupid high school games.
 
  • #621
Hey man i found the easiest and simplest solution to your problems... its called the date rape drug, or beter yet a donkey punch

Is this statement to me?

If it is, I certainly don't have those oppertunities you mentioned above. I mentioned very clearly that the displacement between her position and mine as of this point is 8 hours drive. And as for proms and clubs, I doubt there would be any for teenagers, and even if there were, I wouldn't invite any girl to that sort of place. Offer a ride? I am not legal to drive by myself yet, although she is. And please define stupid high school games.

OOOH Mr. Professional, I am such a meathead, I thought I was replying to the Update thread when I made the joke yesterday. Please forgive me. Of course, now that I have a brief idea of PO's problem, I think your advice is entirely sound. I would say too that being a little aloof and inscrutable would be useful now that the ball is in her court. Pleeeeeeeease forgive :biggrin: !

Girl trouble is big trouble.

I'm kinda average in appearance I guess, and not very sociable. Strange as it is, I was just asked out by an incredibly beautiful, and seemingly quite nice, model. A human one, that is. Female. With a pulse and all. It's all very strange.
