I'm a tad confused...

Post Reply New Topic

Like some others, I don't usually require social interaction to get by, I don't really desire it either. I went through 2 years of high school with ZERO friends and I was perfectly fine and my grades and whatnot were superb. Now here's the dilemma, I don't really desire social interaction with people...except for this one girl. Only her, it's weird, I couldn't care less about socializing with anyone else, (FYI I exclude my family from this) but I care about her, I don't even know her that well but I WANT to know her. IDK, I know it's probably just some teenage crush business but it still perplexes me. This whole situation is strange to me, is there anyone who can offer advice to a social ignoramus like me?

Well, if she is someone you really care about, go for it.

Firstly, this is completely natural and not something you should worry about. You don't say how old you are but I would guess you are somewhere around adolescence. Someone described it to me a hormone hostage. You have hormones rampaging around your body and loads of new feelings start happening. You thought you had a handle on things but actually someone keeps on changing the rules.

The questions really are, do you really want to get to know her better and does she want to get to know you better. If the answers are both yes you have the basis for a relationship.

It takes courage. Be brave

Also, as an FYI I'm 18...yeah sad huh? When I said social ignoramus I wasn't joking...

Don't worry about being late starting and definitely not sad. More exciting I would say. You didn't answer my question about if you want to get to know her better. Is this what you want just now or is it better to imagine what it would be like for her to be your girlfriend. Either is fine but DON'T get caught staring at her. That could come over as spooky and scary.

Enjoy this time. It can be full of heartache but also full of fun.
