Its Tough Trying To Get Noticed · 3:22am Jun 25th, 2015
Ever had a hard time trying to get a specific person to notice you? Whether it be because you love them and want them to know, wanting them to recognize your efforts to impress them, or whatever other reason for wanting their attention, you just can't get them to notice you? I've been having trouble with that as of late. It seems as though no matter what I do, my efforts to get someone's recognition just does not seem to be enough. Maybe I have to channel my yandere side... Mind you if I did that, it would likely result in my target of affection to be chained to the wall of my basement. Not that I don't like the thought of them chained to my wall, just that its pretty illegal to kidnap people. I want to be noticed, just not by national news...
Need a wingman or wingwoman?
I know what you're talking about
I know that feel. Before I started to date my wife, I spent three whole months fumbling around with the right words to ask her out. Giving up each and every time I tried to approach the subject. I persisted though, and we've been happy together for years now. My advice, don't give up, even if you do things that make you look like an idiot in the process. But yes, please hold back on criminal activities.
3179791 The one I'm trying to impress is my wingwomen. So maybe I need another? Is that the answer?
3179803 Thanks C.Flabbergasted-senpai, you always speak welcomed wisdom.
3179794 So you have that problem too?
3179820 No, I mean I talked to you about this
3179820 My door is always open.
Provided you don't threaten to brand me like you did last time.
3179820 Sometimes you just need someone to set the mood, break the ice, point out your awesomeness so you don't seem egotistical, and/or just be back-up. I'm basically the site's councilor already, if you would like assistance. I'd be glad to help!
3179823 Woopsy, slipped my mind! Sorry about that, Ai-kun!
I think its all these late nights catching up on me.
3179825 That was the old me... Well it was the yesterday me, but you get the point.
3179831 it's fine
3179830 Thanks GG13-senpai, you would think a future couple councilor wouldn't need help with these kind of problems, but I guess it can happen to any of us.
3179833 Thanks for the understanding, Ai-kun.
3179855 I always understand
3179858 That charm of yours will get you places, Ai-kun. Its up to you what kind of places you wanna pursue, though.
3179870 ahhh, I see what you did there
3179874 I'm my own type of charmer you see, but the problem is that my charm isn't working on who I want. They have an immunity to it I swear!
3179887 just keep trying, maybe they do know what you're doing but just want you to flat out say it
3179849 Like I said, I would be glad to help if you wanted me to. I have nothing better to do and I love helping people!
3179914 If we had more people like you up here in Alaska at the moment, I would be far better off.
3179891 That just might be crazy enough to be true! Although actually forming the words are gonna be difficult. They lump in my throat as soon as I ever so much as think about asking them.
3179924 Exactly why you should have someone set the mood...
cough cough
3179924 write down what you would say
3179933 That's good advice! I think I have a sticky note or two around here somewhere...
3179930 Your right! I think I should get someone with expertise... Someone with a number in their name... I wonder if Tavi4-kun is around?
3179942 than go for it
3179942
I am not amused...
And if you're poking fun at the numbers in my name it's just because of tradition. I didn't even check to see if Gamerguy was open. I just always use the 1313 (my favorite # twice).
3179952 Sorry, sorry! I forget to shut off the teasing part of my brain. I didn't mean that to be rude.
I appreciate any advice you give whole-heatedly!
3179950 Maybe I will... After I get out of the fetal position and regain some speck of confidence.
3179968 I didn't take it as rude, I was just explaining myself.
But seriously, let someone set the mood.
cough cough ack! *Starts choking for real because of fake coughing too much...*
3179968 PM me
3179970 How would you "set the mood" per say?
3179975 I would need more information on the scenario, but probably in a way that somehow improves your appearance and attempts to grab her attention. If a compliment comes from someone else, it will do a lot more to talk about your character than if you did it yourself. I would just get her talking and point out some of your amazing-ness while leaving a gap so you can fly in and sweep her off her feet.
3179977 So what do you need to know?
3179986 Everything.
Or you could just tell me where you've been talking to her and I'll do some research.
3179991 Well, she's actually my oldest childhood friend, we're almost like sisters, you know? But ever since I have started traveling with her two years ago, I've been developing feelings for her. I want to tell her my new feelings, but I worry how our relationship would change if she rejected me. I even worry how our relationship would change if she accepted me, like would we change in a way I wouldn't want?
3180020 Only you can know if this is truly what you want, and even if it ends up not working, what relationship you did have would prevail. Now I don't know what she's like, but if she's as close to you as you say, then she'll understand and still be there if it doesn't work out. See if you can ask her something so you can use her reaction as a test to see how she would react and what the relationship would be like.
3180054 Interesting, so I first have to decide on whether or not I truly want her. But if she rejects me, all those years of friendship will still be there. But I should test the waters before I cannon ball in and straight out ask her, right?
3180079 Exactly! Why can't everybody else understand my messages like you? Usually I have to explain them 12 times...
3180091 I may be a little light headed when it comes to most situations, but if its important enough I tend to have more space to process it.
I don't think that's biologically correct, but whatever works as a metaphor.
3180113 Like I said, just test her so you can figure out the best way to go about it. Then there's the matter of creating the perfect moment to start your advancements.
3180149 Yah, test her. Like dropping hints during conversation, or something of that nature. Then wait until I find the right time. Its hard to prep for that special time, I'll just have to wait and see for when I feel like its the best time. I think I'm starting to get some ideas, thanks again!
3180167 No problem! Just PM me or something if you need more help.
And don't forget, you can always create your own moment - sidekick, or no sidekick.
3180192 I will make sure to leave some brain space for you! And thanks, I feel more prepared to pursue this now. No matter what happens.
3180197 Believing you can do something is 1/2 the battle.
