Well let me try to explain this in absolutely full detail so people can tell me their opinoin and know all the facts. Last September I moved to Florida, I was kinda sad because i left all my friends. So in florida i was in all advanced classes, so all the kids in my classes were juniors (i was a sophmore). And in chemistry i fell for this girl in my class named Melanie. At the time i was 240 and 5'10 or so (very fat), so i dieted like crazy and worked out like crazy to make myself look better. Every time i could i would flirt with her and talk to her. . Well when it came close to the end of the year i finally had gained up enough courage to ask her out (Sort of). So I wrote her a note, it told her how i felt, had a small poem, and asked her out to the movies, and it had my email and phone number. (i figured this way would work out best for both of us since i didnt have to face rejection if she said no and she didnt actually have to tell me no) Well that day i went home and she never called or emailed me. I was really bummed the next day. But the next day in chemistry she walked up to me and said yes, but we didn't have much time to talk since class was just starting and i didnt sit next to her. So i was SOOO excited that whole day i mean the smile on my face must have been ear to ear . Well the next day i had a couple of minutes to talk to her and i tried to set up a time/day to go to the movies, but she told me she couldnt do it this weekend because she had to study for finals (which i totally understood). Later on that day i saw her in the halls and stopped her and asked for her screen name (aim) and she gave me a screen name, i didnt have anything to write it down on so i was relying on my memory. I went home and added the screen name to my buddy list (hoping it was right) and to this day that screen name has not signed on. Well i told my friend Jon that me and melanie were going out, so he went and asked her if it was true, and she said no ... which devastated me (barely kept from crying in front of my classmates). Well i didnt have much time to talk to her because of finals, but i got to hand her my year book before the chemistry final started and she signed it and i got it back. it said "Bryan: Chemistry has been absolutly fabulous... I'll See you this summer <3 Melanie" So the end of school came, and over the summer i kept thinking about her but i had no way of getting in touch with her, and she never called or wrote to me. The summer passed and this year when school started i saw her and i still have very strong feelings for her. Now is where i come to the part where i dont know what to do, Should i go talk to her about going out? Should i just realize that she only said yes out of pity and i should try to forget about her no matter how hard it is? And if i should ask her out, should i wait till after september 24th (when i get my liscense). From your point of view what looks like the best option?... Thanks in advance --Brian--
