Thought He liked me

It all started back in November, when a kid named Ben (not really his name, but I don't want to say someone's actual name) gave me a rosemary crown as a gift on my way to Period 2. I thought it was weird, this kid, I didn't even know his name, nor do I recall him talking to me before, just outta nowhere, gives me a crown, like the one Jesus wore? I thought it was stupid, so I gave it to my Math teachers.

A month later, he jumps around and asks me to dance at the mixer when the slowdance song came on. At the end of the dance he's like "Marielle, I love you." I was like "f off." And he's like "It was just a joke." I had a boyfriend at the time and didn't feel like getting involved with someone else.

After my boyfriend and I broke up, I began to like Ben. However, I realized what a bitch I was for turning him down in such an unclassy manner. Karma bit me right in the arse. I told him I was sorry one day, but he just went to hanging with his friends like always.

I tried to get him to notice me, even complimented him, but my only responses were like nod or a thumbs-up. My friend Leslie said "Oh that's just Ben for ya, I should know, we're in Maths together." Well yeah.

I tried flirting with him, and he didn't seem to notice I was flirting. However, his friends began treating me nicer. Ben also acted shy around me and was always looking at me from a distance, I tell my friends and their like "OMG, he totally likes you, ask him out."

So the next mixer came up and my friends were like, "Ask him to dance." His response, "Go dance with your friends." I got mad and stomped off like a little brat. Oh god, how unclassy of me once again, after I promised myself and him I wouldn't act like that. Idiot me, stupid fool! I gave up right there and then.

But, honestly, what guy gives out signals he likes you and then turns you down. Just to play around with you? Or what?

Advice to any guy reading this: Don't give out mixed signals if a girl likes you, it will get her hopes up and when she finds out it was all untrue, she will be mad.

However, I think I have myself to blame. I was so unclassy, and immature. What guy would wanna go out with me after being such a bitch?

But maybe, it wasn't meant to happen. I'm also changing schools next year, so I don't think I'll see him again. Who knows, one of these days he might say I was the one, but in the mean time, it's best to just find someone else and live my life.

Get back your lost love
