So this is how my story begins: Im a grade 11 student in canada. three months ago I was given the horrific news, by my parents, that I was moving, despite my constant grumbling, angery/sarcastice comments, and all around un-enjoyable mood, the move went off with out a glich. It was the aspect of a new school that dwarfed my old school that angered me most. The first day of school came and went, and no-one payed me more atention then a dog would pay an ant- this suited me quite well. on the second day, as I ate lunch, however I saw a girl, grade nine, and too my great astonishment, my insides lurched and I felt dizzying and light hearted every time she looked at me- veary unusualy for me to be like this, as ny one who knew me knows that I dont shy away from much, and if I see a girl I like, I talk to her, but this was different, it was like, it is like... shes the perfect girl! so, me being as irrational and independent as I am, tried to convince my self that this was just because I was lonly, and that she ment nothing! she couldnt, I didnt know her there was no way I could like her! but the next few days came and went with similar results. so one day I plucked up the corage to talk to her, and as I sat waiting for her to enter the cafateria, I was distraced by the guys behind me doing something, and as I turned back she was sitting beside me! This was not possable! it as TOO good to be true, and over the last 2 weeks I've gradualy gotten to know her- her names Hannah. but now im afraid of her, because I can usualy read the expressions in a persons face after I've said somthing, soo I know wether they aprove of me or not, but I cant with her, im too nervous and shy too look her in the face, and I think she suspects me of liking her. and now I find my self saying somthing I seldom say, I NEED HELP! shes the best thing thats happened to me, and I desperatly dont want to loose her friendship, and want start somthing more with her, but I dont know what to do. so please, I ask you this, how can I get 'closer' to her without seeming like a pervert, or that all I want is sex, because I havnt even thought of that. and I know "bee your self" and all that, but im trying that aproch and its not getting me too far. so I say again, please help!

yeah I agree, I make mistakes too and if I believe thats its too inreadable ill go back and change it but 99% of the time I dont notice the mistakes til someone points it out, and some people cant help it that they cant spell, one of my friends doesn spelll very well, somet imes we joke bout it but I dont make a deal out of it, its not really her fault, its the way her brain functions and she tries and practices, I dont think its a thing for people to be that concerned bout Did you find this answer helpful?

I agree,,,because as humans we like to "look" good and by picking out someone elses mistakes they THINK they are better or it makes them self feel better about themselves. Drives me nuts too! In fact, I made spelling errors now lol) Did you find this answer helpful? Yes, No, Report abuse
sorry everyone else to go off like this, but this is rediculious!!
here is a question I want Charlee to read...someone put this out there and its a good one...
Why do people obsess over the most silly things? Asked by ally_xo about 4 hours ago, 2 answers. Add me as a friend | Send me Fun Mail
For example, spelling. I make mistakes a lot, I type fast and to be honest, when I mix up a letter, I know it is still possible to read...and I don't really want to change it back. Why are people SO bothered with how other people spell when it is still readable?? I find it silly, that they can't let the simplest things go!
Another example: Weight questions. yes, it does get on my nerves also when girls constantly say "I'm 105 pounds and 5'6, am I fat???"
But, theres also some people that do genuinly have problems and want to get help either get back on track from an eating disorder, or lose some weight sensibly.
I know this is a rant.. But I just wanted to get that across.
I wish people would stop being so picky about spelling, grammer, other peoples business.
Anyone else agree?
(Sorry about the rant. It was just on my mind...)
A! =)
yes, Homecoming and Prom are the same... Just go slow and get to know her, because of the grade difference too you dont want her (or her parents) to think something is happening too fast, know what I mean? My daughter is in 10th grade and my older son in 9th and I would think that if they came home saying a guy or girl 2 years older was "hitting" on them..lol Like every one else said, just relax and be yourself and develop a friendship 1st. ask for her phone number and call her and that way you may get a bit comfortable with her parents too until the right time comes to meet. Hope this helps.
you need to take a breather. just calm down. I get extremely nervous around this one guy I like; and my heart beats so fast it hurts. you know? and my hands start shaking. you are definitely not alone in this. I say that you should just focus on getting to know her. be funny and get her to laugh. that's always nice; funny guys are so awesome. ask her to homecoming (do they have that in canada? I don't know, I live in the US. I've been to canada before though it was awesome)
homecoming and prom are not the same!!! prom is for juniors and seniors. and freshman and sophomore are only allowed to go if a junior/senior asks them. anyone can go to homecoming. plus, homecoming is in october. homecoming week has like carnivals and parades and footbal games. and prom is at the end of the year.
get it right puglover. lol.
and to desperatelynervous, good luck! btw, I picture you kinda like hayden christensen because he's canadian. lol
Charlee, WOW! Sorry to put your pants in a uproar...lol (are they a bit tight or something) GRRR! ;D
didnt think it was THAT important...not even the basis of his question...homecoming is usually the week before prom(football games ect..) its all related ...
take a chance a calm down? ok, ill relax and on monday ill drop hints towards my affections for her, but ill calm, if atall possable, lol. homecoming? I dono if we have it, we might, under a different name, maby its like the Prom?
