After decoding that insanely long blabber without any punctuation besides !!!!!!!!!!, I can now conclude that if you learned some proper English, it would help you with your social life <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Comp that was mean..

Gazaar · August 2002

Ehhh maybe lose the whole thing where you break out in tears when she hugs someone.

JasonBostwick · August 2002

I'd have to agree with Gazaar there... a hug means nothing, its a gesture of friendship. Nothing to get upset over.

One - Why do we care?
Two - Obviously your friend is much better of a person then you since she hugged him, and never hugged you.
Three - You can't expect to just sit back and wait for her to all of a sudden love you, do something about it. Your friend did.
Four - Pay closer attention in english class, for all of our sakes.

Also the fact that you said no after she came back to try to be friends with you. That usually doesn't work so well.

Yes. I agree. Bad idea.

Gazaar · August 2002

Look buddy. Apparently you lack the finesse to deal with the chicklets at this time in your life. Don't friggin cry when she hugs other people, don't say no when she wants to be friends because that is just a small obstacle. Just go with it, and if you somehow get the finesse to deal with her correctly, things will fall into place. Girls love a sense of humor, be funny, but don't be synthetic, because a fake sense of humor is easily spotted. I suppose I could add an 'in other words' part..so I shall! In other words man, grow some huevos.

Rico1 · August 2002

Oooh, he said Huevos...

My advice: Walk it off, crap happens, thats what growing up is all about really...

Infamous · August 2002

Comp.... social life??.... HAHAHAHAHHAA

Jammer · August 2002

God I hate being a teenager. If I could go from 12 to 20, I'd be a happy man. Anyway, my best advice is that if you've been friends for three years and she just met your best friend and they like each other, chances are she doesn't want to be going out. You can't expect someone to change their feelings based on a change in yours.

SentrySteve · August 2002

Ok.. hold on one second..

I almost have it..

AH HA!

/me gets a notepad and a pencil
/me writes down this thread
/me sends it to 90210
/me gets rich

Sharing personal experiences with a bunch of strangers.. maybe that is a green light that something is wrong. Oh, yeh, and that whole crying thing could also contribute to it.

Bill · August 2002

First of all, you're just now starting High School, you've got plenty of time to find a chick that fits you. Second, why on earth would you ask for relationship help on a board for a Half-Life MOD?

My suggestion? If you're crying over a hug with just a friend, maybe relationships aren't for you.

Shinseiji · August 2002

Do what I did to get my current g/f: Just be yourself. I find it easier to act like a jackass (which I am), then try to be Don Juan Delanooch (Which I'm not).

Spooge · August 2002

Ok, here's the deal. Your friend went through you to get your woman. Why haven't you considered doing the same thing? Get buddy buddy with this chick and then (subtly) run down the list of HER friends. Not only will you have a whole list of women to choose from, but as a rule, she will conveniently become jealous and want you instead of your friend.

This, of course, will take a bit of practice but it's a skill you should learn. And as others have said, women generally don't like sappy piles of goo. They want to spend their time CHANGING you into a sappy pile of goo. Don't ask me why. Nobody knows. That's just the way it is.

Gazaar · August 2002

OMG Bill! Your avatar is one of my HL sprays lol.

Bill · August 2002

Haha, I searched for "cutie" in the google image search one day and found that, I've yet to figure out what the hell it is though.

Slycaster · August 2002

I think it's an incredibly fat hamster. <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

JediYoshi · August 2002

It looks like a beaver to me.

Vober · August 2002

BEHOLD: One computer geek asks a large mass of computers geeks about how to get a girl: You now have over 40 geek ideas, or goto high school and look at the masses of single hot babes <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'>

I have seen freaks with no arms get great chicks in high school, so unless you have no arms and no legs(which still could get the ladies) goto high school and have fun.

P.S. Dont act like a fish, but dont deny it when you are asked....

Gazaar · August 2002

Actually it's a gopher, guys.

Vober · August 2002

Why is it everyone seems to be asking about girls all of a sudden? Maybe cuz school is starting? either way why in the hell would you think of asking in the geekiest place on earth. The forum of a group of computer geeks talking and talking and talking about a video game that has not been released yet? Oh well, I guess we can be th official "For nerds, by nerds lovelife support group"

Just food for thought....

HBNayr · August 2002

OK, just to throw out what little I have to say.

Number one, teenage years are crappy and awkward. A lot of stupid, emotional, nutty things are going to happen. A lot of good things will happen too, but it gets lost in there sometimes. Do your best to learn from every mistake you make.

Number two, don't burn any bridges. It may be painful to be friends with a girl when she's dating someone else, but that's a test of friendship. Are you willing to throw out three years because of what happened one night? Keep her number in your rolodex.

Number three, well, I've lost my train of thought. Cursed television. Let's see, you've got to learn from what you do in your teenage years, you need to keep your friends around, and this awkward phase doesn't last forever. And Spooge summed it up pretty well: chicks don't want to date someone who cries too much, unless they've caused it.

Then again, that period of my life was rather emotional...

DOOManiac · August 2002

never let some dame come between you and your best friend, since odds are you'll stay friends with him for a long time and she'll dump you in a month. Then you would have 2 enemies rather than 1.

oh and a hug means nothing. hell my friend amy used to kiss me on the cheek occassionally. just a friendship thing to them...

Bill · August 2002

That's a gopher?? What the hell did it eat? ..everything?

Jedisar · August 2002

The girl I love and I are VERY close...'cuz I started out as her friend, even though I loved her. She is in love with a guy who is having a shaky relationship with his girlfriend, who wants any relationship with the girl I love to be a secret..and she accepts that BS..now, I love her, dearly, and I got as close to her in two weeks as it took this other wanker a year to get. However, she loves him, I love her, he loves his shaky girlfriend.

Saying no to being a girl's friend, or being upset when she hugs someone else is not only being selfish and possessive, but a BAD way to get the girl.

I may not be with Emily, but once she realizes this guy is an ###, I'll be there for her. When it comes to girls, sometimes it's best to show them how you really are, let them know how you feel about them, and just let time kick in.

Legionnaired · August 2002

Huevos= eggs in spanish...

Spanish= Useless.

But yeah, Gazaar is right. Don't get upset, don't burn your bridges, and above all, don't be upset by in-decisiveness, they all do it.

The girl i like =(((((
