We are halfway through December and I could not be anymore excited. The start of winter break is next Wednesday, Christmas is next Saturday, New Year's day will be followed just a week after and then we are back to school, which brings us to the beginning of January. The end of semester is on January 26 and the following week is the much anticipated Ice Age week. Being an Irondale senior, I pledged to exit my high-school year with a bang and I plan on doing that by attending the dances. The first dance of the year was Homecoming and that was a blast. Never in my high-school did I ever go to homecoming. I went with a couple of my buddies and we dressed to impress finishing off our looks with suspenders and some stunna' shades. Sadie's was a let down but I made an effort to at least go. I tried very hard to score a date with this girl up 'til the last minute but it did not work. Just a few weeks ago, DECA, my marketing class, pulled off a very successful dance. A lot of people came and it was a blast. I have come to realize that attending these dances is not such a bad idea.
What made homecoming and the DECA dance that much better is that I finally made some kind of interaction with the girl that every guy wish they had ( I will keep her name anonymous to save her from the embarrassment). Lets rewind back here for a bit. This girl is by far the prettiest girl I have ever seen. She was in this long relationship until the beginning of the school year. Seeing her facebook status go from "in a relationship" to "single" excited a lot of guys including me. If I was ever gonna get a shot with this girl, this is my opportunity.
Fast forward to November 5, thought to myself: "I'm going to ask her to Ice Age, Hitch style (Sorry its too long to explain the process. You're gonna have to watch the movie and find out on your own)!" I figured it was a win-win situation for me. First, I would get props from all the guys for having the go-nads to ask this girl. Win. Second, I have nothing to lose asking her. I might even get some points for being confident enough to ask her. Win. I didn't even think about the situation in case she says no. I was so set on this plan and nothing was gonna stop me from doing it. I even asked some girls about the plan and they all thought it was good and there was no way she could say no to me.
Today, I've been trying for the past month to make some progress with this girl. I went to her dance competition and even tried talking to her afterwards but I swung and missed. I also attempted to text her but it doesn't seem to be working. All of her responses indicate that I should not bother. So what I am coming down to is that I am starting to doubt the plan I had put into place. For the past month, I have been telling myself that I will go through and nothing will stop me. My friends didn't think I would do it but I told them to watch. Now, I think they might be right. Am I all-talk? Am I just like the other guys that are too afraid to make a move? Hopefully the next 2 weeks will shed some light on this situation
