OK so I asked a lad out in my french class yesterday and he said no. It would have been nice if he had said yes but anyway. I sit next to him on fridays. Today I was sitting next to him and it so awkward! I asked him out because a) he seemed nice enough (and he still is; I understand why he said no. If I'm mad at anyone, it's myself!) and b) because I convinved myself that I could and WOULD do it. I'd never done it before so it was a lot for me to do. Society has now changed... we're in the twenty first centrury... so females can ask lads out. All he said to me in french was 'hi,' 'cheers' and 'bye' when other lessons we've been chatting just fine. I don't know if I should start the conversations because I feel that I'd be annoying him if I did. Any advice for a 17 year old girl who, right now, really wants to punch herself for being such an idiot???!!! Any advice would be much appreciated. x
