A brief girlie post!
Guys, this a post you might not want to read. . .go ahead, hit the X and close the browser button!
Okay, imagine me screaming like a teenage girl over a boy. That is how I’m feeling at this moment. I’m feeling so much like a I’m in college all over again. This guy that I ”talked” to briefly in college has resurfaced and we’ve been texting for a while–since a few days after Christmas. So, I decided that I wanted to check out his myspace. OMG, he’s sooooooo sexy!!! Soooo handsome; my heart is beating really fast right now. I invited him to my college roommate’s party on this Saturday. He was close to her in college. I don’t know if he’s coming because I invited him or it’s her party. Anyway, I feel all bubbly inside and excited.
I am a grown woman for goodness sake. Why do I feel like I can’t talk to him? I don’t like being aggressive, it’s not my style. However, I’m getting old and the only way you get what you want is to ask. Is it appropriate to make comments about his pics? Especially ones that say, “sexy pic” because thats my honest feeling about it. I need to go pray for purity now. . .I wish there was a good way to approach this appropriately.
Background Info: I was very silly in college. And EXTREMELY shy. So shy that I had trouble looking him in the eye. One night we were supposed to go bowling, I was dressed and ready to go. But my roommate was on the phone when he arrived to take me out. So I basically was sitting in the room waiting for him to call me down, but not really. I should have went down stairs to wait, but I was scared. Apparently, this was considered standing him up. This wasn’t the only stupid thing I did–there was the night we all went out and I was a little tipsy and started talking and said wayyyyyyy too much. He told me that I was too silly for him at that time. I was immature–I’ll be the first to admit it.
My former roommate told that I messed up and the only way to fix what happened in college was to be more aggressive with him now. I’m a NOT used to seeking men–I’ve never really done that. How do I approach this? **sigh** he’s so handsome!!!
Okay, enough about men .. . tomorrow, I’ll be back to our regularly scheduled program: parent conferences and phone calls. It’ll be a great post.

When I was single, I found it hard NOT thinking about men in everyday life. I worked my patooty off as a teacher, but I still had a personal life I couldn’t wait to get to. So whether you do it here or in private, gush on! So, how ’bout not hiding from him this time? Instead of commenting on his hot pictures, why not strike up a regular ole conversation. Men like smart women. Right? There’s HappyChyck’s pep talk for ya!

I would not be aggressive, but would be assertive. What do you have to lose? There is lots to gain!

Can’t wait to hear how the party was! You should talk to him, that’s for sure. I am sure he will notice how much you’ve matured and that your commitment as a high school teacher will impress him.
