    Dear blkhwkdwn1:

    I understand not wanting to post a photo of the mug and that is okay with me. I am pleased that you thought of doing it. You can add a poem, if you want with the theme of her being sweet, but nothing too syrupy, not too sweet. Just a bit sweet. So it goes with the mug and the honey. What if you have coffee with her before Christmas and give her the mug, honey (and maybe poem) then? Don’t know if it is a good idea, just thinking.

    you wrote that you don’t know if you are going “to do what she wants and get into therapy, or visit the doctor, or take meds”- no, no, no, says I- you are your own man! You decide if you have a beard or not, if you attend therapy or not, and if you take meds or not. I am all for therapy and no meds (except for emergency, short term), but these are your choices.

    If you do go for the poem, you can post your literary effort here (without writing her real name).

    Maybe i’ll skip the poem/note…might send mixed signals and she may feel awkward. Just the mug and the honey, then if she says “why honey?” i’ll say it’s from the bee’s on the mug. Doubt i’ll go for coffee with her, she’s got better things to do then hang out with me 1 on 1, don’t wanna take her time away. She wont care, not like we are dating. Those 2 coffee hangouts back in Sept and that dinner we had was good enough, I really don’t want to be broken in half.

    Dear blkhwkdwn1:

    “Broken in half”- if you have coffee with her? I don’t understand. From the correspondences with her that you posted, she comes across as someone who likes you and cares about you, so I think it is a good idea that you do follow up on getting together for coffee. She does care even though you are not dating. Maybe you are discouraged from the awkwardness when you saw her last at her place of work?

    Maybe she wasn’t feeling well (even though she looked great), maybe it is the wheat thing- never underestimate how uncomfortable for a woman (no matter how good she looks) to suffer from bloating! (bloating doesn’t feel very feminine, believe me!)

    By that I mean the more i’ll hang out with her the more i’ll just continue to like her, the more i’ll like her the more depressed i’ll get and keep realizing how much of a POS I am and feel. Yeah she already she has ate wheat several times lately and her tummy was not feeling too good after.

    Dear blkhwkdwn1:

    You like her. You liked her for a long time (9 pages of liking her on this thread!) – you’ve been depressed before you got to like her, so liking her doesn’t make it worse, does it? I am not recommending obsessing about her, of course, but liking her, that is not a bad thing in itself.

    So no poem, probably the right choice. Honey is still in the gift idea. Coffee, maybe.

    Since I deleted everyone off my facebook and decided to deactivate my FB in October I decided to start my own secret FB with no friends on it, just write down my sad pathetic feelings with only me looking at it since everyday I feel the same..no end in sight! just the same feelings everyday, like I am from the movie groundhog day. I just want to drink and forget! i’m seriously thinking of getting back into drinking heavily again, even if she urges me not to.

    Dear blkhwkdwn1:

    Drinking heavily would be your choice. And it will be you enjoying at times and suffering otherwise, the consequences of heavy drinking. I hope you don’t. Coffee with her sounds to me like a way, way… way superior idea!

    Dear blkhwkdwn1:

    Hitting the liquor store will add a hangover to the mental breakdown. Better have a mental breakdown without a hangover in the morning. Drink hot tea, listen to that music you like so much.

    Man, it’s been over a week since she’s text me! This is officially now the longest she’s gone not texting me since we started texting. Looking back at our text the last time she sent me a text out of the blue because she wanted to talk to me was early October when I donated all that money to save someones life. Anytime she texts me it’s because I have text her, bringing people to her work and she wants to know how many so she can reserve a table, because we made plans and are talking about them. Why can’t she text me because she just wants to? “Hey Pat, I was thinking of you, and wanted to say hi” or something. SOMETHING that does not have me force her to text me first. yeah she’s busy working, I am busy working too…I still make time to text her and say hi on my own! It sucks but I have told myself i’m not going to text her until she WANTS to text me on her own. I know texting is not the only thing about friendship, but it’s important for staying in touch…if she does not message me all month then i’ll know we are not even friends lol. Seriously..how hard is it to say “Hey, how you doing?” how hard is it? I want to feel wanted too… -.- Pretty sure if I did not message her after that time we hung out at a buddies gig early November i’d still not have a text from her if I did not text her, I guess we will see. If she has time to text me back, she has time to text me because she wants to.

    Rant over.

    Dear blkhwkdwn1:

    I wish she initiated texting you! I am asking the same, now: why isn’t she texting you? Good question. Maybe you should ask her this question: why don’t you text me first, initiate a text?

    Tell her you really want to know, need to know. Ask her for an honest answer because you really need her honest answer, because you need to know what you mean to her-

    Don’t ask her in an emotional way, just so to get information, get the truth. December is too long to wait for her to text you first, and if she does, it doesn’t tell you much. Ask and ye shall find out (not an exact quote).

    What if she just says she’s busy working? I mean I work a lot too and I still initiate the texts lol. I wont be emotional, we never have awkward moments in RL even with my feelings for her unless I dunno what to say to her. If she does not text me for another week i’ll ask her. I’m about to go for a walk, i’m about to freak out because i’m stressed about a bunch of things not even related to her, but seeing no text just made me feel like ranting. I mean I been reading what this could mean on the internet, which is why i’m staying silent as I was reading to try this out. But she still wants to have a coffee asap? yet she does not bother texting me unless I text her or make the plans, or bring people to her work so she can feel like people want to see her and so she can keep in touch with them aswell. Something fishy feels like it’s going on, something HAS felt fishy since that night at the night club at the buddies gig where I walked her to her car. Just something feels off, maybe she’s tired of thinking of my problems and wants to fade away? I dunno. Don’t think i’ll ever know the problem tbh. That long text convo I posted a few pages ago might have been the last straw. Most of the coffees and the Dinner has been all her though, I’ve only asked her for coffee 1 time, that was the time we walked along the rocks and said it was a great or good day on our facebooks. Early Sept.

    Dear blkhwkdwn1:

    Emotional Reasoning is one of the distorted categories of thinking I learned about in CBT therapy. Something feels off to you since that night- it FEELS off to you, but it doesn’t mean it is so to her. I remember the exchange you had with her about that night and she sounded fine and dandy about it.

    Because something FEELS a certain way, does not mean it is. So how do you know? You ask. This is what I learned in CBT- to ask, just for information. Such a simple tool, often unused while people choose instead to suffer in the agony of guessing and imagining the worse. Reality is often better than what we imagine…

    I don’t ask because everytime I ask people these things they always freak out, so now I’ve come to force myself for a long time to not ask because I know how it will go for me, and it just makes me look like a whiner. It’s funny how you use the word information like that, she does the exact same thing and is all about not holding back your feelings because it’s healthy. Pretty sure you would love her if you met her lol.

    Dear blkhwkdwn1:

    Some people freak out, sure. But a reasonable person wouldn’t, if you tell him/ her, in a calm voice, that you are only looking for information. No blaming or whining, just gathering information.

    I already like her, especially from the exchanges you posted here. Except I would like it if she did initiate texts. Maybe she doesn’t want to … bother you? Maybe she thinks you prefer to initiate texts to her? Didn’t think about this possibility- she doesn’t know that you wish she initiated texting.

    Didn’t think of that- a possibility.
