(09 Nov 2014, 6:47 pm)Adam Sometimes, bad things happen for a reason. Just think of it as a learning curve. How you deal with these learning curves shapes who you are. Don't avoid everyone at breaktimes and lunchtimes because of a minor thing like this. There are some things in life you have to adopt a "grin and bare it" attitude towards.
As for her friends, just ignore them. I know it is easier than do, but being agitated by them will encourage them to do it more often. If you ignore them, they'll soon get bored and probably will stop. Simply put it down to "banter".
Mini anecdote for you. One of my friends liked this lass all the way through Secondary and Sixth Form. It was an open secret amongst the year group. At the Y13 prom, one part of the night was an awards ceremony, with one of the categories being "Cringiest Couple". A few people voted for my friend and his crush. They didn't win, but they got a shoutout. He still hasn't forgave us for it.
Meh, I'm in a bad mood for the night unfortunately because I've just checked her Instagram and she's uploaded a photo of Luke (THE FUCKING PENGUIN) Hemmings with the emoji
for a description!!!! It's celebrities like him who give people like me absolutely no chance.....he's Camp as Christmas!!!
Thanks for the advice though, Adam, but I'm just naturally awkward, sadly. I've been like this for 2 years, always watching over my own shoulder like I'm being watched by her friends.
One time we had a special day where we get one teacher for the whole day and do boring activities (Go-Ahead). I told one of my friends that if I got a crap teacher and he got a good teacher, I would wave at her. Unfortunately things didn't pan out the way I wanted.....
I stood at the top of the hall and waved down at her and her terrorist friends, but a revolt of other boys got a hold of me and I soon found myself being sat down right next to her. I swear to god I have never been so scared in my life! - I didn't say anything after five minutes, and neither did she. So I just gave them all a 'fuck you' look and walked back to roam the corridors......
Nothing ever goes right for me....the only thing that keeps me happy is my hobby!
Edit: Also, the problem with me trying to forget about it, is the fact that when somebody hears of my name, they instantly think of me liking her. Pretty much everyone in my year gives me crap about it, even if it is banter....
