Well, Amanda was really embarassed, she said she forgot for a moment where she was and just let it go. Everyone just laughed so much because of the scene it caused.
That's pretty much what I pictured, Chris...a moment of silent shock, followed by gales of hysterical laughter. It really is a classically awful moment, isn't it?

Everything went pretty well, lots of kisses and stuff. Dancing was pretty intense, some really romantic moments of kissing on the dance floor.
I am undeniably in love with this girl, I don't know how else to say it. It hurts to be away from her. I dropped her off this morning at her house, kissed her and said thank you and goodbyes, then went home...teared up the whole way.
Chris, you are such a sweetheart. It brought tears to 'my' eyes, just reading of your feelings. Thank you for sharing all this with us. It's such a pleasure to experience a guy who can and will communicate his feelings.

"And all the time that passes by, the times we had and may have again, they cant be put into words, beauty doesnt describe, the way you move, the way you smile, the way you talk, it's all alive. Blink, it's gone, eyes shut for two seconds and I remember."-Chris
Beautifully written. What a romantic, intense person you are. She is one lucky girl.

I saved it in a text file and am going to insert it into my senior speech somehow. I dont know what my next move is, I guess the ball's in my court.
The important thing is though, no matter what happens between us, we had this great time together that i'll remember forever.
What senior speech?
I am SO glad you had a wonderful time and that your feelings are so strong. Hope you will be able to spend the summer 'really' getting to know this girl. If it's 'meant to be', then after the passage of some time, you will know for sure. Thanks again for sharing with us this very special moment in your life, Chris. You are one in a million, believe me.
When we were on my senior prom, we went to this nice restaurant on top of a posh hotel here in Kansas City (the one on Crown Center, for those of you who'd know what I'm talking about). At one point, I said, "Hey, let's all laugh outloud at some made-up punchline to make it look like we're all fancy and sophisticated." They went along with it, and then I said...
"So I said to the guy, 'No you idiot, that's not a tree trunk. It's my leg!'"
Ohhhhh... ....good times. Turns out the punch line is funnier without a joke attached to it.
Thanks man, as for her shoes...they hurt her feet so much by the end of the night, that I carried her all the way out from the ballroom and to her car. Pretty romantic if you ask me, haha.
I can't stop thinking about her, yikes.
Yea I got a tear in my eye due. Very Officer and a Gentleman of you.
Carol, it is so awesome to hear you say all those things. I read your writing and it brings clarity to even my own feelings that I've tried to express. You are quite amazing with your analysis and wonderfully optomistic.
It is just so hard how to know about what step is right to take next. This girl is much too special to just let go and not even attempt to be with. I know the way she is makes it harder for me, just because I'm not as aggressive as I'd like to be with girls. I'm just sort of reserved physically, but I show it when I know it's going to be reciprocated, like it was last night and this morning.
Sometimes I just think she is waiting for me to make a move, and she actually really likes me...but she doesnt think I like her because I am not showing it? I just really don't want to do anything to make a fool of myself or well, be rejected.
I'm just prepared to ask her to hang out this week sometime, go to a movie or hiking, anything.
If anyone has any ideas, let me know. I'll probably end up just winging it, I just hope i dont end it.
I seriously have cried a few times today just thinking that, "I may have kissed her for the last time today." That thought, along with being away from her in general just hurt like nothing I've felt.
Well, since this is APPLEOutsider, if I get turned away tomorrow...I finally get my PowerBook to help dull the pain...no, even that wont work.
Everyone knows beauty and love when they see or feel it, I'm just overwhelmed with it at the moment. It feels good but the fact that we are human and know that there's always a "next step", it's hard not to weigh all the possibilities.
Thanks for reading. I'll see what happens tomorrow around 10 o'clock, in English class.
Not to be a prick but you guys have the most morbid look on your face in those pictures.....looks like you just whitnessed somebody running over your dog or something.

It's all we had, I dont think it's THAAAT bad, but whatever. We have plenty more, some taken at her house and a professional one from the prom itself. Hopefully those turned out.
fuck worrying about being rejected. worry about how terrible you'll feel for the rest of your life if you don't do something now, and it's your last chance to do it.
trust me, any pain of rejection will pale in comparison to a lifetime of regretting what might have been.
I have plenty to say in response to your post; but, unfortunately, I have to go mow the front yard now, because I'm starting to lose the light, and I just *hate* mowing in the dark.
...though, in fact, the lawn somehow turns out even better when I mow in the dark than when I can actually see what I'm doing. hahahaha
I'll try to answer later this evening.
(So this IS the girl from English class? The one with the emerald eyes? )
Please do, I love your posts! Yes, this is the one.
Just finished the lawn. Took me exactly an hour. And, yes, it's pitch dark now. hahaha...7:55 pm out west.
BUT.....now I'm hot, sweaty, filthy...and in desperate need of a bubble bath, with peaches'n'cream bubbles. Ahhhh. Bliss. No power on earth could deter me from this pleasure. (sorry, Cupcake)
See, Chris, this is the problem with females...we have all these *needs* -
You might as well get used to it now... hahaha...(Carol laughs wickedly).
(I had been afraid to ask about that girl for ALL these weeks, just in case things hadn't panned out for you. And all this time, she WAS the one you asked. Heh. Life is good.)
Cant wait Carol, make it a good one! Tomorrow I'm going to ask her to hang out and tell her i need to talk to her about some things I would rather not talk about in school.
