Not that I was looking for any response, I just thought maybe mentioning it out-loud would help me deal with it.
The one that asked me, told me he hoped I'd feel better... or happier.

Although, he's the one on the periphery/circle of the girl I have a crush on, so ironically, I'm sure this had a subconscious effect of jealousy on me.
He's awesome though. And thinking it over, I have no negative emotions towards him, just at myself for letting something like this get to me. It's like I lost my ability to be apathetic. If I get that back, I'm fine.

I find it hilarious that some of us are compelled to be jealous of the friends of our crushes. (I was the same with Andrea. >_>)

I'm sure you'll get over your ability to be a human eventually. One of these days, all the emotion will just drain from your body and you'll be a robot again.

I think it was because thoughts like:
"Damnit, I know she likes him."
"Why the **** do I fail at social situations."
"Why the **** can't I go over there and just try to join the conversation?"
kept running through my head. Particularly the first one. >_>

Unless you meant ask him if he likes her, but his answer would seem to be independent of her feelings.

1. Finding a time to ask her, well, at least one in which she isn't with her friends.
2. What to do about location. Sure, you say things like movies... but what kind of movie... =(

Except that sucks, so:

If you drive and she does not, you could also offer to take her home - although I wouldn't do this, as it might be misconstrued.

First, a movie is not the best idea for the first date - but if you're planning on doing this within the month, there are a few possibilities:
- Happy Feet
- The Nativity Story
- The Holiday
- Charlotte's Web
- The Pursuit of Happiness
These are either comedies or emotional movies, so they're relatively harmless. The Holiday and Charlotte's Web are probably your best bets. If she's the intellectual type, you could see (a) The Nativity Story or (b) The Pursuit of Happiness, and discuss (a) the theological validity of the story/the nature of faith, or (b) the socioeconomic implications of the movie.
Also, make sure you eat somewhere afterwards.

Especially since again, this seems to be far more troublesome than just asking directly, as well as less effective.
*points to school hallway/locker/walk home/etc.*
Hallway seems to be the only one that -might- be viable.
If you drive and she does not, you could also offer to take her home - although I wouldn't do this, as it might be misconstrued.
...Yeah, I imagine it would be.
However, this is all avoided by the fact that I don't drive, because I don't care to. =/

I believe the Japanese call it ranchi. Or perhaps dinner. Something where you can talk the whole time.
Of course, dinner and a movie is fine, I suppose. :\

The experience will mean a lot more if you have an opportunity to talk.

Yeah, but I can't think of any decent places around here. It's like either Fast Food or a rather high-class restaurant. There's almost no middle ground, not in reasonable distance that I can think of.

About which, I just imagine that to be akward, like I wouldn't know what to talk about.

So how about you learn to have some ****ing decency as a human being and not try and provoke someone who is clearly not looking to deal with such ridiculous idiocy in an otherwise serious topic? ^_^

Right, but we at least need to stick to some general level of the same definitions. If everyone had their own defintions for all words, society couldn't function.
So how about you learn to have some ****ing decency as a human being and not try and provoke someone who is clearly not looking to deal with such ridiculous idiocy in an otherwise serious topic? ^_^
There's this wonderful thing you can do where you just ignore my posts, it's all the rage in Europe right now. If you had done that, I would have found the topic uninteresting and left a while ago, instead, you roped me in by (incorrectly) calling my message trolling.
Anyway, since you seem to be enjoying this 'serious' conversation so much, I recommend an art event for a first date. Like, a semi-private (ticket only) gallery showing. That screams "I'm intelligent and rich".
Of course it doesn't work so well if you're not actually rich, as tickets are usually $70-$100 each.
