Maybe For The Best

I didn't see this girl on that morning and I'm home again now.
Sat here thinking that maybe me failing to talk to this girl isn't as bad as I thought. I have hardly ever had friends, especially friends that are girls. So that when I talk to girls, I get attached far too easily and find it hard to let go.
She won't live near me, and I know through personal ordeals that keeping friendships going over long distances is hard. Therefore, if we made a connection then I would have found that hard too.

I think I'd rather rue a missed opportunity than toil over a friendship that has the strains of distance. I know the thoughts of 'what would have happened if I spoke to her' will prey on the back of my mind, but I can forget that like I have in the past.

I'm sure that there will be other pretty girls that seem to take an interest in me, when that happens. I will take the chance. I will not put myself through this again.

Another Chance Gone

I was stood in the pool after a little swim and she slides into the pool too. She swims over to the other side of the pool and stayed there for a few minutes.

The Tortoise

I'm like a tortoise, slowly I get coaxed out of my shell and for a while I enjoy myself, then something happens and I shoot back in to my shell.

Crawling Into My Shell

When the world seems to get too large, too quick or too scary, I crawl into my shell. Natural introversion takes over. When other's natural opposites push me into places I can't go, My mind retracts.

Online Friendship Blog 2

I...I sort of hate myself. I texted my new Mexican friend this morning and I literally regretted it instantly. The things he says reminds me a lot of Marek, it's so fucking weird.

You more than likely will put yourself through it again ๐Ÿ‘ I remember the awkwardness well and thinking talking to a girl I didn't know was impossible.. But it's not it wasn't and its just part of growing .. You gotta choose the level of shyness you are, it gets much easier.. And much more fun ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ’ช girls are insecure too

@misslittleDHP @sjw words of wisdom from a wise female?

@Burrfoot Girls can seem quite mean too, sometimes - In my opinion, it's often because they are trying to sort out the men from the boys! ๐Ÿ˜‰ But it all comes down to personalities anyway (what's a 'man' to one, is a 'lad' to another...). Just be yourself and try to gain confidence in who you are and what you like to do in life - women often like a man to know himself. Being macho or showing bravado is such a small and insignificant part of the whole thing. I'm sure you are lovely and will find some likewise lovely ladies ๐Ÿ˜šโค๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’›โค

You seem like a sweet and sensitive chap....some girls love this...some don't....as you gain confidence within yourself my sweet...you will become more confident with girls...you will also know when it feels right, or whether that girl is worth the risk...unfortunately growing up can hard and mistakes are made...but you learn from them my sweet, which helps you to grow too...it hurts at times, can leave you feeling shit...but soon you gain strength...you will look for in others the qualities you find attractive and then there will be qualities you yourself won't find attractive...it all comes in time. Don't be too hard on yourself...as its all down to personalities, timing and sometimes a bit of fate thrown in !!.....a girl will see something special in you and may even go out of her way to get you to notice...us girlies have the very same insecurities that you have Hun ...enjoy the process, learn from it and that girlie will come!!

@misslittleDHP ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ชโœ‹

Awww the reality is you probably have caught the eye or attention of more girls than you realise, try and remember that some girls probably feel the same way you do we aren't all super confident, it comes with age and sadly sometimes we do get hurt along the way but that makes finding that special person even better, learn to love yourself and others will follow, don't change for anyone always be true to yourself some of us girls can be really mean but we aren't all like that your mrs right is out there somewhere and when the time is right you'll find her!! โคI agree with everything @Burrfoot @MrsS @misslittleDHP have said, good luck hun, and remember enjoy life! ๐Ÿ’‹

@sjw @misslittleDHP @Burrfoot ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Faith in yourself is what you need right now by the sound of it ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ
