What do I do?

[patchwork_andy]

I think I've managed to calm down. But I'm still confused and worried. Jen is one of those people that, I can't really put it into words, she's just brilliant. Clever, pretty, sarcastic, confident, honest, funny, sweet in a non-obvious way, generally just the type of person you hope to be. I like her. Alot. And for some reason she seemed to like me

The sooner you don't accept that, the better.

You can do absolutely fuck all about the past. Look forward to the future, as you can do something about that...and you have a good chance of a decent future, really. I may not properly know you, but I'm not bullshitting you; you're an interesting and intelligent person...two things that a lot of people aren't. That's two bloody important things on your side, and I'm sure there's a lot more, too.

Try as best you can not to scrutinise stuff that hasn't gone as planned, unless it's something you really need to learn from...y'know like an exam to retake or owt.
Accomplishments are where it's at, regardless or not of what you have achieved so far, you've the potential to accomplish things in the future...and you will.

All I'm saying is that you're worth much more than you think...it looks like Jen thinks that, too.

I hope that makes some sense, and isn't complete bollocks.

Thank you. I know deep down that you're right, it's just actually convincing myself.

By the way, if this is the new positive Andy then you're going to rule the world!

Hi Andrew

You never actually said whether you and Jen were gonna meet up. I take it thoughts havent got that far? Maybe you should. Maybe she wants to, but is scared like you? Maybe she has exactly the same thoughts as you, and thinks maybe you don't like her?

I think you at least need to suggest meeting with her for a coffee or something (if you havent already done so). Theres nothing bad in that, because hey- it's just something innocent like catching up, not a proposal of marriage or anything. Have a crack, a blether, or whatever you kids are calling it, and see how the conversation goes. It's as simple as that my friend, simple as that.

You have the gift of the gab. Fact. You always had the right things to say in school (whether they were the right things to say or not- you decide!:p)and many many times when I talk to you on msn you say the right things too. So, say the right things to Jen and get talking to her!

She's been back for just under three days now. I don't want to bother her until she's settled in again. I'll talk to her eventually. I was just caught by suprise last night.
