So, there is this girl, we are both 16 in grade 11, high school, I've known her since grade 5 since she was in my class, even though we never talked lol, up until recently that is.. 6 month's ago we started talking on msn and facebook, and literally have talked to each other every single day, for hours! for 6 months now! that's a lot, but we are both really shy, and have never had a girlfriend/boyfriend befour, even though we have both told each other we like each other a lot. We have gone out 3 times now, swimming, to the movies, and ice skating, but i dont know if i would call us a couple? haha, but anyways, today is valentines day (obviously) and I didnt get her anything, because i thought it would just be weird..? But, there is this thing at our school, were you buy candy grams, and send them to somebody you like.. apparently she sent me one, but i didnt send her one, nor give her anything.. didnt really think about it at the time. But, now i feel like a complete asshole, i feel as if i should have gotten her something, i didnt even talk to her today (in person, i texted her a bit this morning) but, ever since she got me that gift, and i got her nothing, i cant seem to be able to talk to her, i feel as if i just dont want to? I just feel like an idiot and would be embarrassed to talk to her, even though i know she wants to talk to me.. she already sent me 3 texts in which i ignored.. now that i think about it, this post is rather pointless, its not even a question.. haha! I just had to write it all out i suppose.. to make this post less pointless, reply with a valentines story or something, i dunno, what ever you like lol
Ignoring her is not going to help pal. If you feel bad you can't afford to get her a gift, make her something. Sounds cheesy and cliche, but its true... something from the heart to let her know your thinking about her.
Do you deep down not want to be with her? feel uncertain? If so, you don't have to force yourself to be with her, but better I think to tell her that than to just ignore her. If you really want to be with her, you need to do some damage control most likely. Maybe she'll be ok, but likely not. It's not too late. Just send her a text or something that says "sorry I'm being lame", or could you even see her tonight? Tomorrow, you could probably get her some flowers for cheap. I think you need to say something to her as soon as possible. good luck and hope this all works out!
It's not that i cant afford a gift haha, i can most definitely afford one.. It's just i didnt, because i thought it would be awkward and a little weird, since we arnt actually officially going out or anything, but then she ended up getting me something, so now i feel bad for not getting her something, and now its to late, if i get her something now, it'll look like im just doing it because she got me something.. haha
Yeah, but that shouldn't matter... If you got money and you feel bad, just go out and get something... Tell her you didn't expect anything and when you saw that she got you something, that you wanted to get her something too... Go on, make her feel special. =D
If you ignore it, likely nothing will happen. If you apologize for not getting her anything cause you were afraid it would be awkward or inappropriate, you could be saving a shot at this being more than a friendship.
Exactly. It's pretty cut and dry. If you think you may ever want a relationship with this girl... then get her a gift!!!
yeah dude, I think you gotta call her or contact her somehow at least. valentine's day and things like that are important to chicks.
