LarryTate Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 There’s this girl I’ve known for several years. She’s really beautiful, to compare her to someone she looks a lot like Kristen Ritter. We met at a church function and I fell for her immediately, and think that she got feelings around the same time. I was really young then, but wasn’t ready to start chasing girls, so I didn’t do anything for a while. She on the other hand did occasional things over the years to try and get my attention, when we were younger it was childish things, then one time she fanned me after asking if I was hot. She would smile when we’d talk to her sometimes, and usually appeared interested. It wasn’t until I was around 16 that I finally accepted that I loved her, and immediately felt the rush of first love and oneitius at the same time. Didn’t have much experience back then, and when I finally did make a move it was in a really cringe worthy way through social media. It turns out she already had a boyfriend, but seemed happy that I asked her out, and began to come around me a little more after that. For a little while after I wanted to make it known that I did care about her, and me asking her out the way I did wasn’t just some sorry attempt. Pretty much I made it an effort to talk to her at least once almost each time I saw her, sometimes it’d be small talk, a compliment, or some short verbal exchange. She seemed to like it, occasionally threw a compliment my way without me talking first, and would try and hide her boyfriend from me. The only thing is in all of this there was a time or two where it seemed like she just wanted attention, like once she purposely dropped her phone to see if I would hand it to her…..and I did. I stopped after I felt like I made my point. Since then I’ve gotten over the oneitius, but still love her. She has seen me come onto a couple girls since then and has always seemed jealous. She also seems jealous of her friends that appear attracted to me; the only time she wasn’t that way about was when we were little kids. She and her boyfriend are still together, and a good amount of time has passed since I made my move. I can't seem to get over her and occasionally get random reminders of her. Like when I was at a Christmas party last year, and there was a really cute girl wearing reindeer antlers. I was going to find a way to talk to her, but then saw her being mean to this little kid she was watching. Seeing that reminded me of how the girl I like is always nice to little kids, and really seems like she’d be a good mother. She still seems interested, and lately seems to make an effort to say something to me whenever I see her. Was she truly interested? And is there anything I should do?
