This just sucks. The whole thing sucks.

Sorry for what I said–I hope I didn’t make you more insecure about the whole thing. But maybe he likes you too and doesn’t know how to read you.
Don’t be sorry, what you said was smart and probably true. And I don’t think it’d be possible for me to be any more insecure about this than I am already. I think the best thing I could do right now is forget the whole thing.
At least I have the Patriots to make me feel better. Oh wait…
Oops.
So…you can virtually hit me if you want, but…aren’t crushes supposed to be fun? Even if it doesn’t go anywhere?
I say just go for it. A lot easier said than done, but seems like the only way to get on with your life. I know that the thought of rejection is hard, but really, the worst he can do is say no. That will sting for awhile, but at least then you’d know. And if he is gay, well, then, there’s nothing you could have done anyway. It’s totally not personal; you’re just not his sex type. And who knows if he is feeling the same way you are, it could lead to lots of fun.
I say this as someone who hasn’t been out on a date for like, a year, but that’s really been because there’s been no one of interest. I also say this as someone who’s been rejected more than once. And yes, it totally sucks for a little while, but in the end, it’s for the best, because then you know, and can have closure.
Just my two cents.
Sarah, thank you so much! That’s good advice. The only thing preventing me from going for it would be that since we work together occasionally, that would be tres awkward if it didn’t go well.
I feel like I missed something… and I’ve been keeping up on your posts. Without knowing much, I don’t think, I agree with Sarah…. And, clearly, this must be discussed with further detail + wine on Wednesday.
Oh I will cause I’m pathetic and have to keep talking about it.
