Once again, thanks for everyone's help. Anyway, I basically talked to her about final grades, assignments, and what she was up to this summer. She replied to all those and ended by telling me to "enjoy your summer!" I did indeed plan to wait a few days before I replied. That'll at least let me plan out my response a bit better. I don't know, though. All of a sudden, I really want this to work.  |

Okay, I sent a reply. It was a very casual reply, like some of you say, just make her comfortable and let her know I'm not some hungry wolf out to get chicks into bed or anything.  I guess her reply (or lack thereof) will establish whether or not she wishes to maintain even a friendship with me. |

Yeah, Sweetpea's absolutely right.
You've done really well to send the message in the first place - this is a step in the right direction, i'm sure you'll agree.

Well, its been about a week now and she hasn't answered my latest E-mail. I think at this point it is safe to say she no longer has any intention of pursuing even a friendship with me at this point.
This is bummer. But it shouldn't be so surprising.

This is bummer. But it shouldn't be so surprising. It is a bummer. But, you will get over her. You should try to look around for other opportunities to meet girls now. The internet is the easiest for shy people, but just think of any place you might be able to. The best way to get over someone is to meet someone else. If you meet someone and actually start dating, this girl from class will become a distant memory, since nothing ever happened. For me, the girls I forget the quickest are the ones I never had a relationship with, but were just crushes. Think of this as a fresh start now, you have your whole dating life ahead of you! |

That's extremely difficult. hey, if we can't laugh at ourselves...well, nevermind - we've just got to... yeah, it can be very hard to leave the house, go to strange places, meet strange people...but ya gotta cuz they very rarely track you down and try to drag you out the door, lol. the more time you spend outside the house, the more likely you are to meet that special someone. oh, and in the off chance someone does track you down and try to drag you out of the house - just go. nothing bad is gonna happen, and you might just have a good time! ;D |

Where am I gonna meet another girl? I honestly have nowhere to go for a social life. How about joining some class or club? That's what I really want to do this summer - I'm hoping to take a martial art class (I'm trying to decide between kickboxing and aikido, which seem pretty opposite lol). I think doing physical things like that can help with social anxiety, because it gets your adrenaline pumping, which can cause you to attribute that feeling to the exercise not the people. That's what I learned in psychology, and I have definitely experienced it myself. |
