Sadly... That's what I used video games and computers for, but it stopped working... I guess I'll go find some meat and hope I cook better than people think... I give this method 2-3 weeks of working tops. I do have a very one track mind with trains going in all directions.

I gotta second the "learn how to cook" bit. My theory on romancing girls involves cooking, dancing (I prefer salsa, because the whole point of salsa is to make the girl look hot, and when they start getting into it, and really start showing off, well, let's just say it spices the evening up some), and massage therapy. Foot rubs are particularly good for after dancing. Cook the girl an amazing meal, take her out dancing, give her a footrub to soothe those aching feet, and see how the evening progresses. Worked quite well for me, anyways.

If you havent seen her since you left for camp, it doesnt sound like she's losing any sleep over you. Nothing gets you over the heartache of a lover than going out with another. Theres a lot of fish in the sea. etc. etc.

Sorry I missed your reply before, popped up while I posting.

That's the problem, I've met all of 2 girls that I like/can put up with, and one lives in another county (Florida county's are bigger than some states), and I only see her once or twice a year, so yeah... I guess I really need to not live in the middle of nowhere with my only activities being Boy Scouts and church..... (which is actually how I met both, first the one from church then the one from Scouts)

So you want me to poison them, break their legs with my 3 left feet, and then proceed to grind their feet into dust? I'll give it a try, but I doubt I'll ever learn to salsa, just because that's how coordinated my feet are.

On the upside, and I know this doesn't seem like an upside yet, you're still young. Many of my friends are still lacking female companionship, and they're a good, what, 10+ years older than you?

IIRC, you're not even in college yet, right? There aren't all that many people who end up with their high school sweethearts. Many that do, get divorced (you may have noticed a rash of those recently).

I'm 17 almost 18, and you are correct, I'm not in college yet. And at this point, I'm not looking for someone to marry me, I just want someone that sees me as more than a buddy, and in the immortal words of Barney (not the dinosaur): "I just want to cuddle." Now, the exception to that is that about as far as I want to take it right now.

If you just want to cuddle get a body pillow and save all the money you were about to blow on dates for knives and video games.

Sounds like you need a dog.

I probably do, but I also need to have some relationships that I haven't had the opportunity to have, and I need a reason to grow up other than knives and a job, I'm plenty mature to handle knives and work hard, but I need to stop missing out on things that most other kids do.

That being said, I want to exclude the following from the list of things that most other kids do: gang banging, drugs, illegal drinking (except in New York City, I like my double gulps thank you very much), and being a total asshole for no reason.

I prefer something with warm blood that will cuddle back (other than a dog). Besides, free dates are easy for me to come by, I live a couple miles from a great place to go camping and get lost in. Oh, only one sleeping bag? I guess we'll just share.

I've been alone (as far as having someone more than a friend) for almost 18 years, I think I'm ready to not be alone.

What's wrong with drinking 40s on the corner with your vatos, smoking a spliff and flipping people off? I turned out just fine.

You'll meet and have many girlfriends most likey. some good and not so good. all part of growing up. you'll get there. keep your chin up

I don't like the smell or taste of smoke from anything other than wood. As far as flipping people off, I do that occasionally. What are 40s? Or vatos?

:facepalm:
40's are a slang reference to 40oz malt beverages: colt 45, old english 800, etc...
vato's are bro's, homies, etc...

I'm just screwin with ya Oxide. With all the crap you dish out you gotta expect some back! Seriously, I don't mean to sound like a preacin daddy. But your young. Everybody, and I mean everybody loves and loses. Whether its from a breakup or a death. Lose and rejection and not getting what we want is a everyday part of life. And it sucks, but problems happen to EVERYONE. Those who learn to cope and deal with them have GOOD lives. I feels your pain buddy. I've had a few that got away. But I think what everybody else and me are trying to tell you is. Get over it. There is better things in life than misery especially for someone your age.
 
I would counter all the advice thus far even though I know most of it was just in good fun. For me nothing beats a real live woman. Nothing. Not even Bacon, Beer or Beckers.... :D

Make a move (respectfully and only if invited) and see what happens. You aren't 'getting any' anyways so sounds like you don't have much to loose unless you guys are really great friends and if that's the case I'd keep the friendship and look elsewhere because at your age (at least from my experience) friendships last a lot longer then relationships.
