Originally posted by Snowkasa Exactly. Sorry to be a bit pessimistic, but even if she did want to go out with you, and while you'd have a good time with her, it'd most likely end. Staying with a high school partner is extremely rare - I've only heard of one case where it did go through, and that was one of my teachers last year (he's the coolest teacher ever, by the way). But look on the bright side - she's still a friend of yours; although things might get awkward, it'll soon die down, and you two will probably forget about the thing... or at least pretend it never happened. Either way, this moment won't be so bad after time.  -------------------- Why, it seems that I'm too lazy to fix up my layout. Ah well, I'll do it eventually... |

Jul - Post #1881 - 12-23-07 12:10:32am Why do we chase what we know we cannot catch? No matter how dire the situation, a minuscule shred of optimism always burns deep inside. The flame can bring pain at times, but without it, life would be a dark, gloomy place. What else but that tiny bit of hope would push us to do things despite the risk of failure?

| According to your profile, you're what, 15 years old? Don't think about "love" at that age; heck, mental and emotional processes aren't fully developed until late teens at the earliest. -------------------- =================== [Posted by IIMarckus] |

Those who have suffered know why we go on. There is always something there worth living for, even if you don't know it.
There will always be mistakes, things you regret, and even failures. Look past those; find a reason to keep going. We are not born with purpose, we must find it. Sometimes others will push you down, try to stop you. The world is a tough place, but that is no reason to give up. Show the world you won't quit. Sometimes you will need help. Sometimes someone will need your help. Make the world a little bit happier. The world is a cold place full of lonely people. But everyone keeps trying. -------------------- Note to self: Don't put HTML in custom title Note to self: Stop trying to spell "custom" as "custum" My server now sends lots of headers.

Jul - Post #1884 - 12-23-07 01:39:48am That, and learn from your mistakes. Seriously. Every time I fail, I get that much farther before I do, because I know how to avoid the problems that occurred last time.
Of course for me, it's usually not a matter of "I fucked up", but "I was doing great and then some shit beyond my control ruined it".

Originally posted by HyperHacker Yeah, I'd like to believe that, but I thought I was in love when I was 14. Then about a year later, after breaking up with that girl, I met someone else, and I realized I felt a lot stronger about this girl than the previous one, and the same thing kept happening for a couple of years. Who knows, it might happen again. Don't try and justify love at a young age, because honestly it's just down to infatuation, and hormones going crazy. -------------------- =================== [Posted by ArBeWhat] |

| Just when you think you've found the love of your life, someone else will always come around and knock you off your feet.
Remember that. -------------------- god damn it |

| I guess there is some truth in all of these statements. But, what really gets to me is I don't know where I went wrong. I guess that doesn't matter anymore. I was sort of expecting this, but it still killed me. |

I think I had something similar happen last week. No poetry and stuff, but I did ask a guy out, and while he accepted, it appears he thinks of me only as a friend.
Some other people I know think he might be interested in me, but I don't see it. I've been told to try asking him out again in case he's not picked up on my hints about my feelings. I might, but I won't see him until next year now. -------------------- |

Saddly, all we can hope to do build off of our failures in these kinds of situations. Though they are devistating, This is better than if she had said yes, and dummped you latter on(Making you feel even worse ).-------------------- |

Originally posted by HyperHackerOriginally posted by ArBeWhatYeah, that'll happen. I don't think it has much to do with age, though. It might, as teenagers don't have a fully developed prefrontal cortex yet, making them prone to be more impulsive, emotionally volatile and less likely to consider things long term. That could certainly have an impact upon how one feels about others. -------------------- |

Originally posted by GuyPerfectOriginally posted by Tarale The connections formed in the prefrontal cortex are formed by the tasks you do. These connections are formed mainly in adolescence, although the prefrontal cortex does not stop developing until age 25. A young carer would have to repeatedly perform tasks that require maturity and planning, and so these connections would be formed earlier, and solidified earlier than the same skillsets in adolescents that are not carers. -------------------- |

---------------------------- Originally posted by TaraleOriginally posted by GuyPerfectOriginally posted by Tarale But wouldn't that mean that until the age of 25 people can develop said connections, rather that it not being developed? Wait that actually explains many things...
