During third period (US History) she told me that she liked someone that wasn't Josh, her boyfriend, but that he was cool with it. She wanted me to know who it was, but she wouldn't tell me until I guessed. So I started guessing guys (at this point I still didn't know she was bisexual) and she gave me a hint: "This person recently had their hair lightened." Along with the fact that she never used the pronoun "he" and I remembered that a friend of mine in second period got her hair lightened, I guessed "Is it Angela?" After a few "maybe's", she said yes. I think she kind of thought that I would make a pariah of her, but, after all, if she thought she would have been shunned, she wouldn't have told me. I told her that I didn't care and that in fact I liked Angela as well. But then I forgot a lot about our conversation, and I feel uncomfortable asking her about it. I think this is because I would seem obsessed in my own eyes. Actually, I somewhat am because A.) this is the first time anyone has come out to me. B.)it is also the most exciting unexpected thing that has happened this week. My birthday was Monday, but I knew that was coming. Not this.

Don't assume yr girl's is a Lesbian just yet. You mentioned that she had a boyfriend/so obviously she has at least some attraction to the opp. sex. And I remember being attracted to all the really hot girls in h.s./even tho' my orientation was strictly hetero. I think the teen years are like that. Basically /you have the hots for everybody, male or female. If she decides to persue her interest in this other girl on a physical level/then just be as neutrally-supportive towards her as you can. Unless you have some strong religious or moral objections to homosexuality. In which case you can just tell her you rather not hear abt her exploits. But I think you handled it abt as well as anyone cd've. Esp. considering that a wk. from now/she might be totally over her crush on another girl. And Happy Belated Birthday! How old are you? And what'd you do to celebrate?

I saw the Map Library Boy again today and it was even worse than on tuesday. This time he smiled at me, but it wasn't a special smile, it was a Polite smile. He's over me. I could tell. In a way I'm kind of releaved. I think I have a crush on another boy I work with. I don't have a nickname for him just yet, and I feel weird saying his real name on here, but he's very nice and easy on the eyes. For some reason I felt like I shouldn't have a crush on this New Boy because I had a crush on Map Library Boy. Here's the thing about the New Boy (what a stupid nickname): he flirts with all the girls who work there. not obvious, "charming" kind of flirting. He doesn't go around telling everyone how beautiful they are and crap. It's more like joke flirting. Like he asks girls to marry him and stupid stuff like that. I seem to be the only girl he doesn't flirt with. He jokes around with me and is nice to me, but he doesn't flirt with me. That seems suspicious to me. This is the same boy who poked me a few times. I mentioned before that any boy who's ever poked me has had designs on me. Is that the case with this one? he kept staring at me to make me laugh today (not because he wanted to look at me, just to make me laugh) and someone told him he talks too much and he said "I like to make her laugh." which I thought was nice and sweet. He's a good boy. I like being around him. but I can't tell at all if he has any interest in me. Like I said, he's friendly with everyone. He's just one of those guys. and he's really, really funny. and he has a great chest. The biggest problem is that I Like him. I don't just have a crush on him like I did with the Map Library Boy (a crush being some silly thing you can live with and enjoy even though you know nothing will ever come of it). When I Like someone I usually tell them I like them and I think that scares them. It's hard for me to keep it to myself if I'm really interested in someone. I try to be subtle, but that never works. Plus I don't think I'm in a good position to have a "boyfriend" right now. I just felt like complaning a bit. I'm sure he's not interested in me in that way and nothing will ever come of it. I just hope I can control myself enough to not make a fool out of myself (I don't want to seem "obvious"). Oh well.

i am just now wondering why we all do this 'not be obvious- not make a fool of myself' stuff so many people seem to be looking to get to know other people- why is it so hard? and i am admitting that i would probably react badly to someone who seemed to 'too obviously like me'

I always tell boys when I really like them. If I suspect that they like me too, that is. it doesn't really work out. my personal opinion is that they take me too seriously when I tell them I like them. So I've decided I'm not going to tell them anymore, even if I really like them, unless they tell me first. I say that now but just wait - I'll bet you everything I own I can't stick to it.

try nates approach of the ole one-two ........hit him and say "stick it in my ass"

Suprisingly, that sort of thing doesn't work in reverse: It is morally ( and legally)unacceptable for a guy to walk up to a girl he likes, smack her and say "I want to Stick it in your Ass." Funny how life works that way.

I am sixteen years old. I had a party at my house on the eighth. (I invited my friend and also Angela, but they couldn't attend.) To add to the confusion: My maybe-bisexual friend and Angela have the same first name. One is Angela P. (the maybe-bisexual one) and Angela J. (the hot one that we both like). I have liked both Angelas since the beginning of the ninth grade. I have a girlfriend. Maggie. This week I told both Angelas that I liked them. Incidentally, it seems that my friendship with Angela P. has kinda petered away. Hmmm.

wait- are you a boy or a girl? (no offense intended)

I am a male. No offense taken. I have never really mentioned my gender on this board in my three years of visiting it. And "Crawford," not only being asexual, also seems to put Cindy Crawford in people's minds. I didn't think about that when I randomly selected it from a dictionary.

God, I had forgotten how confusing high school relationships were. You should send this all in as a story line to Fox for one of their shows and at least gain some dough out of the whole ordeal. Let me get this straight. You, Crawford (A), are dating Maggie (B), but have told both Bi-Angela (C) and Hottie Angela (D) that you like them both. Meanwhile, C has the hots for D, and we have no idea what B thinks about all of this. Since then, the friendship betwen A and C has faltered for unspecified reasons. Fuck it, dude, sell it to Dawson's Creek, go for the big roll.

Word! Yr life has Prime Time hit written all over it. You cd be the next Darrin Star.

Oh no. It gets SO much better. When Angela P. told me about all this, she told me that she had asked Angela J. to be in a "relationship" (her words, not mine) with her and Josh. I thought that was pretty stupid, because Angela J. is a devout Roman Catholic, and obviously wouldn't go for a threesome. I spent a little bit of Friday with Josh and Angela P. and we talked but it still seemed weird. I haven't mentioned my knowledge of this to Angela J. because Angela P. asked me not to. Angela P. and I have not talked about it since. I talked to Angela P. this morning (about an hour ago) and it didn't come up at all. Thank god for the internet. I can't talk about this to any of my friends or my parents.

You've definitely come to the right place. As far as what Catholic Girls will and will not do, I refer you to the Frank Zappa album, "Joe's Garage".

What does he say about Catholic girls? I tried to search for the lyrics but to no avail. And watch it, mister.

umm...I'm sure they don't apply to you. I was trying to make the point that just because someone is a member of a group that has been stereotyped as goody-2-shoes, doesn't mean they aren't capable of suprising you with non-stereotypical behavior.

Ok, I post this with the fore knowledge that those of us who are or at some time were Catholic Girls may be offended. 1. I didn't write it. 2. It's a joke, for crying out loud! 3. it's actuallly a real good tune. (From Joe's Garage, Act I) 3. SCENE THREE: CATHOLIC GIRLS Father Riley And Various Party Goers: Well Catholic Girls With a tiny little mustache Catholic Girls Do you know how they go? Catholic Girls In the Rectory Basement Father Riley's a fairy But it don't bother Mary Catholic Girls At the CYO Catholic Girls Do you know how they go?

Father Riley: They're learning to blow All the Catholic Boys! Mary: Warren Cuccurullo... Father Riley: Catholic Boys! Mary: Kinda young, kinda WOW! Father Riley: Catholic Boys! Mary: Vinnie Colaiuta... (note: Both Warren Cuccurullo and Vinnie Colaiuta were members of Frank's band that played on this album - Sem.) Chorus: Where are they now? Did they all take The Vow?

Joe had a girl friend named Mary. She used to go the church club every week. They'd meet each other there Hold hands And think Pure Thoughts So, now everyone knows what I make the reference to. Apologies to those who need them.

Hey Crawfish--could you use Sem's handy dandy A, B, C, D reference? It makes it much easier for me to understand all the Angelas. Thanks.

Y'know, reading my previous entries, it does seem a little confusing. I suppose I could do my last post with the alphabetical notation. Oh no. It gets SO much better. When (C) told me about all this, she told me that she had asked (D) to be in a "relationship" (her words, not mine) with her and Josh. I thought that was pretty stupid, because (D) is a devout Roman Catholic, and obviously wouldn't go for a threesome. I spent a little bit of Friday with Josh and (C) and we talked but it still seemed weird. I haven't mentioned my knowledge of this to (D) because (C) asked me not to. (D) and I have not talked about it since. I talked to (D) this morning (about an hour ago) and it didn't come up at all. Thank god for the internet. I can't talk about this to any of my friends or my parents.

i've plotted the A, B, C, D points and have graphed the relationship. the graph ended up looking like this. As we all know, the depicted graph has startling similarities to the glyph of binding, a tool of nefarious evil and the knights of the order of the trapezoid, a satanic organization. i would recommend the following immediately: 1. purification via holy water (see Angela J.) 2. anal sex furthermore, i now have "Catholic Girls" running through my head. i think i will go sing it softly in the mens room, enjoying the delicate echos and the first cuppajoe crap.

Hey! Watch it,I've got that emblem tatoo'd on my vaginal lip.

well, boys, grab your snorkels it's time to do some divin!

i sense a conspiracy

And don't come empty handed.Be sure and bring your equipment,you know,your "tools of the trade". Cause no jobs worth doin' if you don't do it well!!!

Am I the only fat gay boy on line?

say...for a while there i thought you were maybe the poster formerly known as pajamaboy. if you are, you've lost a little of that old joie de vivre. if not, then - the answer is no.

that's v trying to pass as/insult me. or something like that. except for a couple of instances where it's agent d trying to pass as/insult me.

droopy,who are the other gay "sorabjis"???

well, just look who's trying to hook up! interesting.

that was me, jack. and how was that an insult? i can remember at least two other gay sorabji'ites - pajamaboy and petrock (who showed up on the wayd board a little while ago.) both great guys.

to put it mildly, v has some hangups.

But jacks not.

...admit it jack,you like young boys,13 or less.
