I hope you're not planning on splitting them up or anything.
Same. That's kinda scummy.
Oh no I didn't mean it that way. I just mean if they ever do split, I actually think I have a good chance now.
A girl I know fairly well and find very attractive, looked at me tonight.
I guess things are getting serious.
Do you think they will split any time soon?
We're in highschool, so yes. And if they don't and they get married, she's my best friend and I'll make myself be happy for her. As for me in that scenario? Well, I'll find a way to survive.
Isn't she in love with him?
That's what she told me. But she's loved at least one of her other boyfriends if I remember correctly.

Well, that's high school.![]()

)Hahaha, exactly. The way I see it, I've been with her for four years. I've stuck with her through about 4 relationships, maybe 5. Who's to say the sixth time isn't what makes her realize I could be good for her?
For instance today, she wanted a coffee. Who went to order it with her while her boyfriend sat down? Me.
Who offered his overshirt when she said she was cold and then gently draped it over her shoulders? This guy.
Who held the door open for her? I think you see the pattern.
I don't want to come off as egotistical because that's not me at all. Honestly I'm trying to recover from lack of confidence issues. (What unrequited love will do for your confidence is a glorious thing..)
My point is, I've been there with her through everything in middle school and high school, not him. I've been her shoulder to cry on when he was jealous about nothing. She just has to give it the chance. Honestly I think she would say yes to a date if she were single. I wasn't really good enough for a healthy relationship six months ago (When they started dating) but certain thing have happened in those six months that really helped me grow up a bit.
That will not be enough if she doesn't see you in that way.
I'm working out and using acne medicine..Any other suggestions?
(And please don't say get over her. I've tried off and on for four years. It isn't happening.)
If it doesn't work, you will have to (it may not just be about appearances). And it will happen, maybe not anytime soon but I doubt you will feel this way forever if she doesn't return your feelings.

Probably not, but if it doesn't work out, that's gonna result in a REALLY sucky few months..![]()
Well you probably shouldn't get your hopes up too high, to avoid the disappointment. Especially if she doesn't break up with her boyfriend.
I try not to. Love freaking sucks. (Please don't be all "You're in highschool, you have no idea what love is." I'm not like most people my age. I know everyone says that but I'm really, really different.) Sometimes I can't help but get my hopes high. Sometimes I just want to become a hermit.
I can't say that you have no idea what love is (although I don't) because I don't know how you feel, but you are young and will have plenty of opportunities for love. She's not the only one in the world for you.Have you just finished high school? If so, then I'm one of those people.I can't say that you have no idea what love is (although I don't) because I don't know how you feel, but you are young and will have plenty of opportunities for love.

I'm a junior.
Do you consider this year your final chance with her?
I hope you're not planning on splitting them up or anything.


Had a bit of a relapse today. Saw a picture on Facebook of my ex with her family and now I am thoroughly depressed.
