that this Spring she would unfortunately be in Ecuador?
Well, I'd tried talking to her in lunch, in the halls, etc. but it was hard because i didnt really have a forum at this school for getting to know her, except this club that really didnt meet that often.
So i figured that maybe by emailing her I could get to know her better, while she was in Ecuador, a longshot hope I guess, but I figured it'd be worth trying.
Well I sent her one before she left and she replied. And then i sent her one when she got down there and she replied, and I sent her one again and she didnt reply. Then a few weeks later she sent a "how things are going down there" reply to a bunch of people (mass email), and I wrote her back after that, didn't get a reply,
and then finally I did it...
Just for the heck of it, I sent her an email telling her that I had had a crush on her before, that she was an attractive girl in a lot of ways, and also seemingly pretty successful at life, and that I wanted to learn what a few of her tips are for being so successful and such a cool person, and also that i wanted to get to know her better,
so I asked her if she wanted to hang out some time in early May after she gets back.
And this time she replied right away the next morning. She thanked me for the compliments and told me that she indeed was surprised to get such an email, and that she'd be alright hanging out in 'some kind of a group setting' after she gets back, heck I'll just paste what she said specifically,
Here's the entire email she sent back (its not that long)..

hey steve-
how are you? um, thank you for your email, it was very nice, i was really
surprised to get it! well, it would be fun to hang out in a group of some sort
when i get back. im not too sure what you mean by that, i enjoy being friends
with you. i hope this semester is treating you well, hasta luego! Lydia

so yea, i really dont know what to make of it. I sent her a reply back that hanging out in a group would be cool and i said some other general stuff, and havent heard from her since (I sent this one out about a couple days ago)
so... Are you guys proud of me? I'm proud of myself, what I did took balls and a lot of courage (i dont know if i could have done it without the tool of "emailing" at my hands.)
I'm thinking that hopefully I was able to grow from doing this. My plan for this semester is to meet more girls in my classes and such, and maybe try to hook up with somebody, we'll see how much time i have in my life. And if I dont succeed at getting girls in my classes, then this dream girl will always be back at around May, and maybe she'll wanna hang out over the summer (we both live around here)
Another big part of this tho, which sucks, is that a lot of the girls I am going after are pretty attractive, which means that i will probably have to work hard, to get in good shape to be elligable for them (havent been lifting or doing cardio for like the last 8 months) so i definately need to get on the ball, I've lost a little muscle and gained a lil fat.
So... cardio.. lifting.. and resisting nasty food temptations will definately be more things to focus on throughout the rest of this semester.
Maybe even working on a bit of a tan at the salons.
So yea.. I will definately have my work cut out for me over the next few months towards disciplining myself to look really good, working hard at my schoolwork (there will be a lot of it this semester), and also trying to meet girls in places, and getting to know them, particularly hot girls. (this is a trick)
So... wish me luck people! Cuz this next semester is going to SUCK!
