I’m good! Keeping busy. Planning to go out of the country soon, can’t wait!

Hey! Just saying hello… Hope all is well!

hahahaha - sorry :/ think they only took offense to the swearing reply. I does kinda turn some people off a post.

hahaha actually - it got 2 reports about the swearing and not actually about your writing. Sorry to add further salt to the wound. Im going to invite some people too. It did make me laugh :D Im sure I know a few who would also enjoy it.

haha yeah agreed - people arent interested unless they can help or console the poor sod. Your just too confident :D did you invite people to the post? you should reopen it again. I enjoyed it once I had read it. The only reason I found the post is coz it had a report on it :)

lol - sorry about your poem post. I knew it was about the big time wasters. I just didnt know if there was a hidden meaning some where. Im not good at seeing hidden meanings. Was a very good poem thou. Made me giggle.

I’m doing well thanks! League is going well. I just finished buying all my gear yesterday. I have a game coming up this friday and next friday do I am pretty excited.

Hey! How are you?

Yeah…that’s what you get when you want two video cards to run side-by-side, 3TB of storage, and 8GB of ram…

No worries on the religion post, I’m patient. :-)

I enjoy comics (though I’m too lazy for anything but webcomics) and a good movie, though I don’t see many. Glad to hear that Iron Man’s so good, I’ve been thinking of seeing it.

Doing pretty well; drooling over a hypothetical computer that I’d need $3200 US to actually buy the parts for and frantically writing essays.

Hey astro!

Hope you’re enjoying our discussion in the religion thread, and I hope I haven’t offended you. How’re you doing?

Hey Astro,
Yes, still awake…I’m gonna have to read this later today…really sorry…loads of stuff came up and I’m only just getting to bed now…at 6.30am!!
Soz and hope you’ll forgive me…
xx

Astro!!! Hey, How you doing?? Thanks for your shout the other day and my apologies for not getting back…just reading your post now and will get back to ya shortly xx

hehe its ok :) we’ve all done it

Hey. Sorry your post got out of hand so you needed to close it. Next time this happens you should use a red flag instead of giving insulting or nasty replies. This will highlight the post to the Moderators who will come in and take action. Thank you. Ditzy and the Mod team.

I’ve written a post that I believe your insight would be of great value, but I have been having a problem being able to invite friends that are offline. Would you please visit my post and invite other Christians to it. Thank You and God Bless.

Hey! Thanks for the support the other day! The league I am in are going to be having scrimmages on the 4th and I will be attending them. Any advice?

Woah…sounds like you’re pretty sorted for the next few months…congrats on the end of the waiting game! xx

Hey Astro, Wow…your life changes at the speed of sound! Way to go and well done on getting the number! Sounds like you’ve met a nice girl. And I’m sure she’ll pick up…sounds keen too!
xx

good idea…

all IS fair..

YOU HAVE TO CLAIM HER! haha… I told someone today that all if fair in love and war. You better go for it!

Here you go.

Hey, astro! Here’s the complete listing of all the Hockey tips and drills that website I found yesterday has. Check out when you have a chance.

Thanks! I just wanted to check to make sure that I wasn’t being mislead.

I found this website about skating backwards. Can you tell me if it is accurate or not? Thanks!

http://www.inlinewarehouse.com/tipsho…

I don’t think there are any straight girls. lol

I’m going to skills and drills tonight, I can’t wait!

yea, I guess it does. But then again you only need two goalies in a game. :)

I don’t thnik I would want to be a goalie simply because I would want to be out there trying to make the goals and fighting for the puck more than keeping the puck out of the net. If that make sense.

Cool! Well, if you are having fun that’s what counts.

Yea! I won’t know what position they’ll have me play until I start. Have you played?

Pretty good, thanks! I am going to start playing hockey in september.

Hey! How are you this morning?

Awesome…go for it…sounds like fun and a great distraction!
:)

P.S. No worries re: anon post…you’re welcome :)

Astro, this sucks, really!!

You’re bumping into every category of girl that you should be avoiding!!!

Gay guys generally look after their appearance and can be pretty hot (us girls call it Sod’s Law!), so perhaps that’s why she’s drooling. She also doesn’t seem to be ready for a relationship, so flirting with him is safe territory. I’d be jealous too in your situation; it’s perfectly normal. She’s giving him the attention that you so wanted for yourself, so don’t worry about it. You’re not a robot who can just press buttons to start and stop your feelings.

The other girl is a disaster waiting to happen. I wouldn’t stop hanging out with her, as, let’s face it any girl with the hots for you is only going to boost your ego and is good to have around when you’re down, HOWEVER there is a line there which you cross at your own peril.

Yes, European people do kiss on the cheek, but I did get the impression from what you wrote that there could be more to it than that. Time will tell I guess.

If you want something meaningful, then stay away from C. She may also just be extremely friendly so potentially she’s another one who’ll leave you standing, expecting more, which you’ll never get.

There must be more girls out there bar these two. What bad luck to have bumped into them one after another like this! :P Keep looking and keep your chin up. I’m sure your Cinderella will come to your rescue soon! xx

Re: the Anon posts, feel free to invite me if you want. I’ll reply anonymously, so that nobody will be able to trace the reply from my profile either. :)

Oh, ok. I am glad I was able to help you. I wasn’t sure which one because I didn’t get any sleep last night. Not a wink. So I was on here helping anybody and everybody.

LOL! k, that’s good…you had me worried there for a while!
The way this girl has been behaving, a guy would be lucky to get a peck on the cheek, let alone anything else!! :P

Hey Astro,
Good on you for making that decision…it’s not easy by any stretch.
Yes, you should wait for something meaningful…you’ve only been here for a couple of months…how much action are you used to, lol?! I’m sure you’ll be fine waiting a little longer, you just need to keep yourself busy and focus on other things.
Well…my advice would be to give her a piece of her own medicine and just leave her be. She’s been getting way too much attention off you lately and what a rude awakening if you suddenly leave her high and dry.
That’s not to say that you should play games either. I’m just saying that if you’ve genuinely decided that it’s over, then being around her will make it harder for you to move on. Much rather lose her for a few days to clear your head. You’re only human and can’t switch your emotions on and off unfortunately.
Well that’s my advice anyway….best of luck…
F :)

Hey,

No worries…rant away, I’m cool.

Okay, well why don’t you just assume that nothing’s going to come of this? Assume that the answer’s no and move on? If she liked you enough, the paths to communication would be open a lot wider? As a minimum, I think you’re safe to assume that whatever her feelings for you are, your feelings for her are much stronger. Do you really want to live like this, dangling off a string?

It’s hard to assume it’s a ‘no’ and move on though, right? You deserve and need closure. You need to hear it from her mouth. Promise yourself that this is the last time that you’re waiting around for her though, please.

I’m sorry for what you’re going through…you deserve so much better :(

Yep…go for it. You honestly have nothing to lose at this juncture.

Hey Astro,

You’re right that it sucks and you’re going to have to take charge and knock this on the head, because this girl could just be playing you along and enjoying the attention she’s getting.

I don’t think you’re giving yourself the best chance if you do it over the phone. You’ve waited this long. You know how it is over the phone. You need to get to the bottom of this and the only way of doing this fully and knowing where you stand is face to face.

Can’ you just go round there when you’re free to drop something round? Just ask her if she fancies a quick coffee and walk somewhere together?

Astro,

Hey, it’s really good that you suggested speaking to her in your post. I was going to tell you the exact same thing. It’s the only way that you’ll ever get to the bottom of what’s going on. You’re a great guy who deserves so much better than this. If you’re wasting your time on her, rather you know now than after another painful two months of waiting.

You know this in your heart of hearts, but most girls, if they were interested, would have done something by now. She could be exceptionally shy, but really, I wouldn’t waste any more energy worrying or tiptoeing around the situation. Invite her out during the daytime, go somewhere quiet where there’s just the two of you (maybe to the park?), maybe for a coffee and ask her what’s going on.

Nip it in the bud now, trust me, you’ll thank yourself for it later. Alternatively, you could take her out to dinner and do it all romantically. My only worry with this approach is if she says she’s not interested in a relationship…you could end up feeling a little foolish. However, I have not met her and not seen her around you; only you can decide which way to do this. It does need to be done soon.

Speaking to her friends is not a good idea; maybe right at the beginning this would have been a good approach, however it’s been two months now so you should rather speak with her directly and get it over with.

I hope that things work out for you Astro…shout me anytime.

Hugs,
Farah :)
