So you want to be able to pick up girls with your radical one liners? Want to make guys fall in love with you with one sideways glance? Unfortunately, so does the rest of the world.
The simple fact is that, in most cases, love doesn’t come that easily. There is no ‘quick fix’, no shortcuts. But never fear, world, because love is real, and love will survive.
The hardest part is not getting the response you want. Ever been turned down? Not fun. Then you either have to try again, or walk away awkwardly, and neither of those options are pleasant. So what if it was Julia, “the love of your life” and she-will-never-talk-to-you-again-and-you-feel-stupid-and-sad-and-you-should-never-had-done-anything-and...
Yes, yes, we’ve all had the feeling, so suck it up. She can’t be “the love of your life” because your life has just begun [unless you’re 80, which in that case, you should probably get out of the school and stop trying to date 15 year olds, you crazy old creep].
“You just gotta pick yourself up, and try again. You’re bound to hit the jackpot some time,” said Jesse Tomas ’10.
Now, you’re going to be like, “yes, I’ve heard this all before,” but listen up, because even the most attractive of people get rejected, even the most caring, the funniest, the richest, because you see, life doesn’t make sense, and people are no exception to that rule. I’m not saying that there is going to be that perfect person waiting for you, and don’t go looking for them.
Just sit back, take it as it comes, and learn as much as you can, so when you do happen to stumble on someone who just might be the best thing you’ve ever seen, you’ll be ready.
Just remember, try not to be to dangerously cheesy.

I really like this. It's funny & true :)
ReplyDeleteOne thing - don't say "Now you're going to be like" that sounds like a 6th grader saying something to another 6th grader. Just say "Now you're going to say" or something like that.
