I promised I wouldn’t write whiny posts but I can’t help it sometimes. Today I was walking home from my class and this very pretty girl with a very cute beagle was walking towards me on the Rideau Canal. The beagle stopped by me, I reached down to pet it and it skitted away. We shared a laugh and I… didn’t… say… anything. Was there a spark? Probably not, but I’m getting tired of wondering what could have come out of these moments.
Every time this happens I promise myself that next time will be different. But I guess I have to admit it. Pretty girls charm me right out of my ability to think. I get nervous that all I’ll end up saying is something along the lines of, “Uh… I … Uh, like your face. Woops, I mean your dog”. So clearly I’m a doofus when it comes to girls. It certainly explains a lot.
Join the rest of the Male half of the human race, Liam. I think God made us that way for a reason.
Suzanne’s take on it is a bit different. She seems to think the girl you met is thinking something like this….
“Why oh why didn’t I say anything?”
