Hey worst case you go on a few good dates, become vulnerable with each other, realize you’d trade everything else to be with her, then fuck it up and now she hates you and you’re still hung up on her a whole god damned year later
Take it from a middle aged guy who wants family and has none: the fear of asking her out is nothing next to the horror of being alone.
You can have both! I asked her a few times, but she moved away and married someone else, so I’m alone for now! Best of both worlds!
And for future readers, to learn from this:
In order to acquire something, learn to let go first.
Sorry, I’m not letting go of my Yu-Gi-Oh cards.
Yu-Gi-Oh before hoes.
(Joking. I’m married and we both sacrificed some things in our 15+ years of a relationship)
But if I’d let go first, I’d never have asked, at all. I think you all need to get your bumper sticker advice straight.
Edited to say: 1.) I’m not bitter, 2.) I’m totally fine with all this, 3.) I’ve so let go. Like, it’s crazy how hung up I’m not.
For me, it wasn’t fear of asking her out, it was that I had about 3/100 emotional hitpoints left and our respawn SUUUUCKSSS.
That’s called fear
Does it not matter why one is afraid? Is fear just bad? If it sends me into suicidal depression is that just the cost to maybe overcome the fear?
AntiSpiral give me anxiety.
Chemicals in my head makes life unbearable
The rock ain’t floating, it’s falling with some speed sideways.
And the absurdity of the universe, in wich your biomechanical functions are part of, shouldn’t impact the value we make of us.
This was my first reaction as well… We most certainly are not literally on a floating rock. Stay in school, meme creator.
And the sun is falling around a massive blackhole, and that blackhole is speeding trough the universe
In a universe that expand at an accelerated rate.
Watch out if you keep talking astronomy and i’m gonna ask you out!
“So… uh… we’re all rotting lumps of flesh caught in the gravity well of a floating rock in space. Wanna hang out?”
Most the people I dated would have thought that was cool, til around the end of college age.
That would work on me, at age [hrm prm cough].
My other trick was, at a party, to sit in a big easy chair and slowly fall asleep while looking at someone I liked. it’s a trick I learned from a cat.
You should’ve just crawled into
mytheir lap. We literally live on a rock - why not? :-O
Where is this photo from please? I love it
