Stuck on someone?

Have you ever been so stuck on someone that you didn’t look for anyone else, but spent ages dreaming about them?

When I was in high school, I fell in love with a girl in my class. Unfortunately, I was not confident enough to ask her out. (Looking her up on Friends Reunited, she’s been with someone for about 14 years now, and is happily married!) I knew there were other girls out there to date, but I used to think about that girl a great deal, pining after her, literally for years afterwards. Part of the trouble was that I knew she had feelings for me, too.

Don’t fall into the same trap of pining after someone for years! You owe it to yourself, and the lucky person with whom you will next hook up! If it’s a matter of plucking up courage to ask someone out with whom you are friendly and meet regularly, just do it. This applies whether you are a man or a woman. A friend won’t shoot you down in flames, which was my fear at the time. Besides which, you may be successful! If you are not successful, then you have still succeeded in gaining the knowledge that they are not interested in you, which will enable you to move on more quickly than otherwise.

If you need to build up your confidence, I’d like to suggest that you look at the confidence-building section of this site, and follow some of the suggestions given.
