I am in the same boat as you two lovely lady's. Except, I am eighteen. There is this guy I like though and I think he likes me. He's just really confusing because he gives me signles and then dosen't talk to me and I don't know what to do. I literary pray all the time about him because I just want shine the light on God and not mess this up. I don't know if I should tell him I like him or not. Any advice? Oh my god I'm crying. I'm not a lady. I'm a guy. But with your guy problems, remember he's a guy. Most of us are about as dense as the next rock you pick up. Maybe even denser. If I were in your position, I'd talk to him more. If things are clicking and you can feel the chemistry between you and he's still not saying anything, by all means make the first move. Let him know how you feel. Don't wait for him to do it. What a lovely lady Mew is lol. I saw this gif a few days ago and I thought of this haha.

Not to make levity of the situation, but the above scenario reminds me of a TV show I started watching last night where the lead female character and the lead male are really close friends and the girl is just waiting for the guy to make a move.
He never does and she finally makes it. It was very frustrating. I was literally screaming at my TV for the guy to do something.

I posted this in the 'Post Random Gifs' thread but I hate the website 'Giphy'. Their gifs are so screwed up and whenever I try to copy the URL link for a gif it never shows up on here (it shows up as a blue square with a question mark in it). This gif is working on my computer currently.

This gif is working on my computer currently. Best advice I can offer on that is instead of copying the link, just save the gif and reupload it to a site like Imgur or something and post it that way. Most of the images I post are thru Imgur links. I don't want to waste time doing that haha. I think you can usually click on the gif on 'Giphy' and it takes you to the original website which often works. 'Giphy' is so stupid with its gif links. I love 'Tumblr' as their links are (relatively) permanent and you know they won't change (unlike if you delete a picture from 'TinyPic' like I've done before and the link gets replaced by another picture over time).

Most guys, if not all of us, are dense as all hell and we can't understand subtle hints and gestures. This picture is true for far more guys than just myself. Yeah honestly I’m pretty clueless too. If a girl had any feelings for me I’d hope I’d have the confidence to be able to make it, but the issue is it would be so difficult for me to tell if it’s even justified. The best thing I guess would be to ask other women in my life about it and what the signs would be.

Honestly I think generally you just need to be open about your feelings, at least with SOMEONE. I know it's hard to tell a person you like that you like them, but if you can't do that try telling a friend like 'Hey, I have feelings for X and I want to talk about it'. Once it's out in the world that these are real feelings that I'm having, I personally find it easier to act on those feelings and at least more overtly flirt with the person I like if not just straight up text them asking to do something some time. Maybe that's just me though idk.

Maybe that's just me though idk. I agree. As challenging as it maybe when an opportunity presents itself in regards to letting your romantic feelings be known you have to take advantage of it. Seize the moment because life is short and you never know when an opportunity will present itself like that again. Also if you don’t make a move some else may with said person and also one of the worst things in life is uncertainty. If you don’t make a move when you’re in love with someone or have very strong feelings then you’re gonna be wondering what could’ve been. As much as rejection sucks it pales in comparison to not knowing. Even if you’re rejected and those feelings aren’t shared by that person you like at least you have the comfort of mind knowing you swung for the fences and missed. I think it allows to eventually to be able to move on with your life and be alright and as I’ve always said there are plenty of people in this world. It sucks if that special someone doesn’t feel the way you do, but they aren’t the only person in the world and if you keep believing in yourself and have faith eventually another opportunity will present itself for you. As for the whole flirting thing clearly it’s not the easiest thing in the world for me at least to be able to gauge and read that, but my guess is that a girl would try and let it be known without actually being known that she likes a guy. I don’t think they necessarily wanna be the person to say it first kind of hoping the guy makes that move. I think first off the way they smiled at you. They’d generally enjoy being around you and hanging out with you. They’d laugh at your jokes that aren’t that funny or that others don’t laugh at. They’d be fully engaged in conversations meaning like sometimes people may be preoccupied or only half listening and maybe talking to someone else around or playing on their phone. If someone liked you they wouldn’t do that. They’d be fully engaged and listening to whatever you have to say. Body language tells a lot. In certain situations when you’re hanging out with them they’d move closer to you. They’ll compliment you and vice versa. I might say something like you I like her earrings, bracelet, hair, etc. Just something to make her feel good and I just think that’s what you do. Also think if mutual feelings exists you could just feel it. You can feel that energy, that passion, that chemistry or spark, whatever you wanna call it. I think everyone as some point gets a feel for it and if you look for these signs and weigh all the different factors and then you just kind of have to trust for yourself and then you make your move. If you’re wrong you’re wrong, but you just have to find a way to work up that courage and just take a chance. Life is short. Can’t be gun shy or conservative. Take risks. Don’t pretend to be any expert on that matter, but being around people more, just watching and learning I do feel like I’m more equipped or able to gauge things like that.

i don't really know what to say anymore. it hurts. Part of me wants to have some hope that maybe the conversation will finish better when we actually finish it. Part of me just wants to call it a loss. He's adamant about not doing the long distance and I respect that. I don't want to get hurt (although too late for that one). I just don't know and that's the worst part.
