Since when is optimism a dealbreaker?


 

Check these out, too...

Well, I follow GL’s advice on being upbeat, but it seems to annoy a lot of guys. Even my crush asked me to stop saying "hi" to him in the hallway, which was probably because he thought I was too optimistic. What do I do? I don't want to annoy anyone.
 
His Answer: “If I were him, I might’ve said that because I was running out of time between classes and it was making me late. I don’t want to be mean… [but] if he’s too busy to say ‘hi’ to you in the hallway, then he’s probably not the kind of guy you want to have a crush on.” - Paul, 15
 
Decoded: Sorry, girl, but if your sourpuss crush is raining on your optimistic parade, he’s not worth a friendly smile or wave. Saying “hi” in the hallway doesn’t take a lot of time or effort. So even if there is a logical explanation, he should have told you why he needed to get to class.
 

Your Move: Give him some space, and though it might be hard, try to move on. There are puh-lenty of cuties in your class, and someday you will find someone who’s just as upbeat as you. Stay true to yourself, talk it up with some new guys and you never know where it might lead.

I guess I can see why that would be weird, some girl just saying hi to you in the halls all the time. Maybe you should just greet them in class or in the morning.

The exact same thing happened to me. I say hi every now and then and he doesn't have the nerve to tell me to stop in person, he does it on email!!! I guess I can be a bit too perky, but still.

I agree, the only time my crush talks to me or when i talk to him is when we are in the same group for class, or i answer a really smart answer in class and he says something like "Wow, you got it right!" cus he probably thinks im a dumb blonde!

I didn't even have the guts to do that. I think that you should give it a little time to see if anything happens between you two, but if not, definitely move on.
