Hi Alan. I'm kinda lonely. Can I come over?
Yay! jumps up excitedly I'll be right over!
knocks on the door a few minutes later Hey Alan, it's me Erin. I made cookies, wanna have one?
Great! Here you go. hands him a cookie By the way, have you seen any interesting movies lately?
no not really you notice I'm unusually quite today
sits down next to Kimbeen on the couch Hmm, strange... You're usually talking a mile a minute. What's up?
oh I think you already know everything about me besides that
puts her arm around Kimbeen Oh come on, spill the beans. It's just us here. We can talk about anything.
well there's something I've been keeping from everyone I think it's time to share it with someone
leans in closer, eyes wide with curiosity Alright, I'm all ears. Tell me what's been eating at you.
well i-i kinda like boys more than girls
gasps dramatically No way! Are you serious? That's incredible! How come you never told me before?
well first of all you never asked second of all I didn't want my family to find out they're very traditional I mean look at my dad he would probably kill me if he found out
laughs Your dad would kill you? That's a bit extreme, don't you think? But hey, you can trust me. Your secret is safe with me.
so when everyone was talking about their crushes I felt like I was going insane cause I never had a crush on anyone before especially since it's a boy
smiles warmly Oh sweetie, I'm sorry you felt that way. Having a crush can be such a confusing and overwhelming experience, especially when you're not sure if you should act on it or not. But hey, don't worry. There's nothing wrong with having feelings for someone you're attracted to. It's completely normal, and it doesn't make you any less of a person. In fact, it makes you more human. So embrace those feelings and let yourself explore them. You might just discover something new about yourself.
I think it's too late for that now I actually have a crush on a guy in my class he's hot as hell but he has a girlfriend I don't know what to do
smirks mischievously Well, isn't this a fun little predicament we find ourselves in? I must say, I'm quite intrigued by this handsome classmate of yours. Tell me more about him. What is it about him that makes your heart race? And how did you even find out about his girlfriend?
well when we got paired up together for science class I saw her everywhere she practically seeps under my skin like seriously she's literally in every single one of my classes there's no escaping her and I feel like if I pursue him it would be betraying her even though they aren't really together they just live together and if he even suspects I like him he'll absolutely hate me and won't want to be anywhere near me
crosses arms, thinking So, let me get this straight. You like this guy, but he has a girlfriend. You're worried that if you pursue him, it will be considered betraying her and it could ruin your relationship with him altogether. Is that right?
yea I'm in a really tight spot
stands up and paces back and forth Alright, Alan, listen up. I've got an idea. We need to figure out a way to get you out of this mess without hurting anyone in the process. First things first, we need to determine whether this girl is really worth pursuing. Is there something special about her that makes you want to go after her so badly? Is she kind, funny, intelligent? Or is it just physical attraction?
it's definitely physical attraction but that's mostly because we're both in our sexual prime and I haven't gotten to experience it yet and he has so basically I'm attracted to him because he's attractive lol
laughs Well, Alan, it looks like this situation is more complicated than I initially thought. But don't worry, I'm here to help you navigate through this. First things first, we need to assess your feelings for this guy. Have you talked to him about how you feel? Does he know that you're attracted to him?
nah not at all I've barely even spoken to him
smirks and puts on a devilish grin Well then, Alan, it looks like it's time to turn up the heat and make your move.
um I don't really know how to flirt I'm not exactly the most suave person alive
raises an eyebrow and smirks Well, Alan, lucky for you, I happen to be quite the expert when it comes to flirting.
grabs Kimbeen by the shoulders and locks eyes with him Flirting, my dear, is all about confidence. You need to walk into that classroom like you own the place. Stand tall, shoulders back, and smile like you know a secret nobody else does. And most importantly, be yourself. Authenticity is key in any form of communication, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. Now, let's work on your game plan. How about we start with a classic line? Something like, "Hey, I couldn't help but notice that smile. It brightens up the whole room." What do you think?
"Hey, I couldn't help but notice that smile. It brightens up the whole room." How does it feel?
crosses arms and raises an eyebrow "Eh"? Seriously, Alan? You're not gonna give me a little more than that. C'mon, think about it. How does it feel to flirt with this guy? Is it exciting? Nervous? Does it make your heart race a bit faster?
it just feels weird saying something I wouldn't normally say to him
rolls eyes Alan, listen, we're playing with fire here. If you want to pursue this guy, you have to be willing to step out of your comfort zone. Flirting is all about taking risks and being a little vulnerable. So, let's try something a bit more... daring. How about, "I've been keeping an eye on you. You're like a magnet pulling me closer and closer"? That should get his attention. Are you up for it?
claps hands together and grins Good, good! Now, let's practice these lines until you feel confident delivering them. Remember, it's all about attitude. Walk into that classroom like you're the coolest kid in town.
ok so what should I do if he rejects me
pauses for a moment, considering the question Well, Alan, rejection is a part of life. Unfortunately, it's something we all have to deal with at some point. But remember, rejection doesn't define your worth as a person. It's not a reflection of who you are, and it definitely doesn't mean that you're unworthy of love.
