There is this one girl that I've gone in and out of liking for like a year and a half now. Today is like the last working day of school for me this year and wouldn't you know it, as soon as I saw her I was thinking about her non-stop.

I used to talk to her a lot last year, then this year it was like once a month whenever I could work up the confidence to go over and talk to her. And I can't tell if she likes me.

Today as soon as I saw her as I was coming out of the line, we both caught each others glances at like the exact same time and kept it for like a whole second. Then right before my last class, she was waiting outside of the room that she skips in and it seemed like she was looking at me a lot and I to her. So this kind of made me think she might me interested if she's acting the same way nearly as me.


The thing is I haven't talked to her in the past few months and I'm still not completely sure that she likes me. Would it be O.K. for me to call her up and ask her to the movies and what should I say?

I did exactly that this saturday.

Last year, I had a crush on THE MOST HOT GIRL EVER...(She really is hot, but I'm obviously biased, still, for me, she beats anybody), Kindest, wittiest, most energizing, etc inlovebabble.
She and I became friends, but I kept my mad crush separate from how I socialized with her. I told her once or twice, and she, very NT-ly asked me out a few times, but our approaches led to a kind of stalemate, both of us feeling....unsure of how to proceed. So we didn't.

Didn't see her for almost a year, once a month bumping into eachother, etc, and, knowing where she works, I walked up to her this caturday and told her I was looking for someone to teach me how to "go out"...And if her offer to help me still stood.

Lowe and behold, she accepted, with shiny eyes, and we're gonna meet up ASAP. I really DO need help learning to date, but she's gonna teach me how to date HER.

:)

THE MORAL OF THE STORY is: That girl fancies you. 100% sure.

Thing is...You need to ask her out the NT way. However you wanna do it, say what you mean, with love. And it'll be not only fine, it'll be GREAT!

I don't really have anything witty to say and she wouldn't expect it either cause I go almost completely unconfident whenever I talk to her

I asked her out to the movies for like a whole month in January 08 but she always had something going on.

Is it O.K. to ask her to the movies?

I just called her a few minutes ago and did it

And then she said something I couldn't hear and then she said she would call me back and said O.K.? as though she meant it in the promise kind of way.

Not sure what to expect

As of quarter till 5 in the morning, she has not called me. And a girl that I talked to about it over Facebook said that if she doesn't call back, neither should I because, as I thought, it means No. I started to think she wasn't going to call back anyway about 15 minutes after I did it.

It's probably for some shallow BS reason that she won't give me a chance too. That was my only chance in high school. It's a pretty crappy feeling over all.

Edit: and for the record, I was already up, I wasn't really gonna wait THAT long.

You'd have a worse feeling if you never had tried. And one that you wouldn't be able to shake off to boot.

Yeah, I suppose that is true. I don't have to think about her at all anymore.

I saw her one last time on her bus as mine passed hers and she was making a phone call and she didn't see me. Today was the last day of functional school.

It made me kind of sad for a bit until I passed some bushes of wild edible berries near my bus stop and then I forgot all about it when I started eating them.

One last post:

I saw her yesterday when I went in to work for the computer guy at the school and when I walked into the giant room were they holding the other students, she said something to these two other guys and then all three of them looked at me. Not sure what that could mean.

Then about an hour into working my mom came and got me to do make up work for one of my teachers so that I could actually pass that class so it was just me and the teacher. Then the girl I like came in and helped out the teacher and I had to go to the other side of the room while the teacher was out and then she was asking me what I was doing when I came over to the teacher comp, which was right next to her, and we made some small talk about the computer not taking my work and stuff. So she doesn't seem that weirded out about me asking her out again.

Then 3 hours later, I was finally done with my make-up work and as I walked toward the door to exit I looked into her eyes one last time for literally two seconds in a way that was like "why didn't you give me a chance?".

Maybe she still likes me or something. I don't know, all I can do is think about it in this little prison cell I call my room. Being a guy sucks because you can't have the exact girl that you want

That's not just limited to guys... I really like this guy who can seem to go on forever not talking to me and i'd stop everything for him.. then the irony is that if someone liked me as much as i like him and i really didn't have time to adjust to the idea i'd be weirded out too.. and miscommunication is inevitable being aspie.. that's my reasoning for everything now.. oh well i was alone before the dx and i'll be alone tomarrow.. my sympathies.. i know a day is almost like forever in our minds.. but it's true.. give it some time..
