I'm now un-chicken enough to...

Bella: I forgot to thank you for what you said in the other thread about my therapy

Yeah. I think it's something you have to come to terms with on your own to an extent (America and guns).

I was chicken to ask girls out for a long time. Funnily enough I did it all the time until I was about 13. I got rejected every single time, except for once. And that "relationship" didn't last very long. I drew a gravestone with her name on it in an art class. I have no idea why. I was just putting everyone's names on them. She was horrified and that was that.

After 13 I become hugely self conscious and paranoid. I had a major crush on a girl all through high school, yet I failed to say anything about it to her. I sometimes wonder what she would have said, although I think I could guess. Once I become 17 I started getting the confidence to be rejected again. Yeah, rejected a lot of times. I only eventually had anything like a proper relationship when I was 20. I asked a girl out at uni and to my surprise she said yes. We were an awful match though. Doh.
