Why I'm alone on Valentine's day this year
guess what, for once in my life… guys are noticing me and it’s kinda weird. Dare I say unwanted attention? Sure I’ve liked people before and others have like me but never this much all at once. Let’s review what’s been going on.
OK, so to start everyone in my math class (and many other classes at this point) everyone jokes about me and this kid with red hair are dating. It’s funny but kinda awkward cus they’ll tell us to kiss and say stuff like “why aren’t you sitting with your boyfriend, Brooklyn?’’ I hands down laugh the most in that class and defiantly take it light-hearted but since I kinda liked him (for less than a day …slow it down) at one point it’s just extra funny to me, a good inside joke with my classmates. It’s starting to fizzle out and I’m giving that a thumbs up!
I have many classes with this other guy who evidently plays the same sport as the kid from my math class does and he’s very nice. Very sweet. Has asked once if I was a lesbian because I wear colorful sweaters (in the second week of school.) And flirts with everyone including me Every. Dang. Day. I’ve had a gut filing for a while that he liked me but just thought he liked everybody until in my first period a few days ago I was talking to his buddies and they were making fun of him while he was gone. saying, ‘‘ I was joking making fun of him saying oh you like Brooklyn and he said over and over please don’t tell anybody!’’ and yet he’s friends were telling me. Then at a fire drill, later that day, some of his friends and I were talking and they started saying stupid stuff in his accent. Ugg I feel bad for this boy, his friends can get annoying at points.
Now to the dude I actually like, well like or think is really cute? He’s the good height for me, He’s A+ at his sport, sometimes actually laughs at my silly jokes, and is just really chill. The only problem is I don’t’ have a single class with him. It’’s kinda difficult to get to know him better and the only reason we know each other is because we talk in the hallways. At the beginning of the year my friends use to like him, she also dosen’t have any classes with him but thought he was cute so I would actively try and hang hear him help her out. Months later after that crush has passed I started liking him. The only other problem is that my friend is not supportive, even though they never went out… she didn’t even tell him how she felt she thinks it would be accurate if we ever went out together, she seemed mad at me but she claims she doesn’t like him anymore. A direct quote that honesty irritated me and now I’m just venting but she said, ‘‘ out of all the hundreds of guys at are a school you have to like him? pick someone else.’’ as I get it you us to like a lot but that dosen’t mean that I started liking him on purpose it was just the opposite.
Boy and friend troubles are real and as a high schooler, you have to deal with the drama sometimes.
