I'm just trying to understand the level of interaction between the two of you. How much is positive, how much is negative? Any actual conversations? Anything meaningful? How many times have you asked her out?
Have you read any of my pervious threads related to the topic? I described the very little interaction we have had, over the past four years.

FYI: I have never actually, asked her out. Did I adequately answer your question? If not, please say so.


Thank you.

This is probably true.

No, I am interested in receiving honest opinions regarding my letter, and the circumstances surrounding it. I greatly appreciate all the feedback I have received so far.

Best,

Perhaps, she will change her mind in the future; I could have to wait some time, because it might not happen until we are middle aged or beyond. There are plenty of pessimists here but I chose to remain optimistic and believe that there is always some hope.
Try to think rationally. You don't plan on changing your mind but you think she will change her mind?

No, I haven't. I just now perused thru the "highschool problems" first couple pages. So, basically, and I'm sure I'm missing stuff here, we're looking at next to zero communication? Looking at her from across assemblies, having class with her in which she gives you a nasty look and then goes back to being friendly with others while you head over to the far side of the room, you leaving the library and bumping into her and again gives you nasty looks, and a group project in which she told you stearnly to "be quiet", etc...

Yes?

Would I be too far off the mark if I guessed that total, actual conversation having, get to know you, face to face time, over the course of 4 years, is probably somewhere in the neighbourhood of...what? Maybe 90 to 120 minutes?

If that is the case, how in the world would you ever know anything about her, to the point that you are completely willing to surrender the rest of your life (that's at least another 70 years) to being single, waiting for this boat to come in?

I just can't understand it. I can tell you right now, there is NO end all be all when it comes to people. You WILL find someone much, much more interesting once you hit post secondary schooling.

I promise you this, Jay. I PROMISE YOU THIS.

Yes, this is an accurate summary of what has transpired over the past four years.

You are probably right, actual conversation has not been more than 30-45 minutes total.

Despite this, she has an immeasurable impact on my life and inspired me to work towards my goal. Thank you for attempting to understand.

You're welcome, and I know I was being a tad nasty earlier, but this is frustrating. I'm sorry about that.


However, I don't believe you answered the second part of my post:

What rejections? You told her you liked her.....she didn't reciprocate. That is not continued rejections.

I'm not even certain if that counts as ONE rejection.



Is there more to this story? Have you ever said, or done anything to her that you haven't said to us already? Something just feels like it's missing to warrant such reactions from her.

Well, to answer your question, I have been rejected. The rejection came after many of my classmates told her I liked her.

She would reply in curt, short, and monotone, responses to express her disinterest. Whenever the subject of my interest was brought up she would respond to their questions by saying things like: "oh that again". One person said that when they asked; "Do you know Jay", she simply said, "Yes" and walked away without saying anything else. Whenever, I see her at school she looks very uncomfortable, and does her best to avoid me. If that isn't rejection, I don't know what is. Does that answer your question?

And you still think you could win her over?!
