"I'll think about it."

Okay, so today on Facebook a girl (not naming) asked me why guys frown when they ask a girl out and the girl says "I'll think about it" This sort of struck me for some reason because just a few weeks ago, I asked someone out and she said "I'll think about it". She said no about 1 week later. Then I asked another girl today (not naming) and she said "I'll think about it". I just said "ok" instead of pushing my luck any farther like I did last time. I'll be lucky if I even get a response later. But back on topic, why does a guy frown when you say "I'll think about it". Well, well, well, my friend... why don't you think about that? Obviously the guy either thinks it's going to be a "no" or he thinks you're un-sure about him, which is probably what you are. But to a guy, that's like saying he's not as special as he ought to be. I don't care whether you wanted to go back to your friends and see if you should date that guy, or whether you have to ask your parents and see if it's okay with them. If you say "I'll think about it", you're giving the guy some really, really low expectations on you. Possibly leading him to not wanting to hang around you anymore or something similar. It can also really depress that guy, unless he had like a back-up girl just in case you said no or something. If a guy asks you out, it's a simple answer. Yes or no. It shouldn't matter what your parents think, what your friends think, or what anybody thinks. If you like that guy then you should end up saying one of those two words whether you're unsure or not.

For the guys, it's not a complete no. If she says "I'll think about it" then just say "ok" and maybe try hanging out with her some more and see if she's any different. Or just wait as long as you can for her to make up her mind. I asked a girl out at music camp (she broke up with me on the last day) and she said "I'll think about it". I thought that was an absolute "no". But the next day she said "The answer to your question is yes". This gave me the mistake of thinking...someone else...was interested and she would say yes but she ended up saying no. Then that leaves this girl currently with me confused whether she's going to say yes, no, or not even reply to that question.

My point here, it's a really bad idea for a girl to say "I'll think about it".

Against Bullying

You know what ticks me off? Bullies. Yeah, yeah I'm sure everyone's heard this story sooo many times. And most of you will probably say "Me too!" Well, unless you're an adult or you are the bullied, I won't refer to you. But the teens in.. public schools.. -evil dramatic music-, some of my friend's parents say they come home from school crying because they've been bullied. Even if you don't think you're a bully, when was the last time you saw someone crying in a corner or standing all alone with no friends to hang with and you decided to comfort/help that person? So what if it's the major school nerd or it takes forever for them to finish one sentence. Sometimes those guys are your best friends. For some reason, everyone thinks I hang with popular people and cool guys. Well, you're wrong. Partly because I'm homeschooled I guess.. but I've been places and I'm not going to brag or anything because I'm just like ya'll, I'll see someone standing over in a corner all by themselves because that guy is really weird and annoying and I'll just try my best to avoid that person. But I will sometimes go over to someone feeling depressed. On Facebook, my friends come to me for quote on quote "advice" on their relationships and problems. This is funny because, as you all should know, I'm not on the top line of relationships and I've never even experienced "school drama". So I can't even use the advice I give people but they'll usually come back to me with two different answers.. "I didn't take your advice" or "It worked! :D". They say they come to me because I'm the only person who will listen to their problems and try to help. (Even tho they don't care about mine. haha) As I said before, some of the best friends you can ever have are the lowest-rated kids in your class. Because they're the bullied and they know what it's like to have a real friend and they know what it's like to be nice and kind to others. One person, who I will not name or even give a hint about, I've heard has been bullied alot at school. I've taken the time to get to know him and the only thing wrong with him is that he has a speech problem. But in all respect, he's actually a smart guy and if people would give him a chance he's pretty fun to be around. And I'm going to refer this to those teens... Have you ever had anyone come up to you and say "You're my only friend"? I swear to you.. that will be the greatest feeling you ever get in the month of that year.

I posted this as I am against bullying, and one of those quote on quote, "awesome guys". I hang out with the most popular people, and I hang out with the most... awesome.. people (:

First Band Practice

Okay, before I get into the main topic of this post.. I want to first say that I'm no longer posting.. ANY more love posts. Y'know, all of my readers like them, but they certainly haven't helped me out in the past month or so. Considering Ginger read the "best cruise ever" post. And what's new to my love-ship? Abigail said "I don't want to be in a relationship right now". Abigail, I would've much preffered you to come up to me in person and say "No." instead of saying "I'll think about it" then, "Not yet" then that. No need to get hopes up, yah know? I also would've taken it better, because I can understand an answer "No" better than "I don't want to be in a relationship". Because that doesn't tell me that you didnt like me either because I'm not your type, I was too fast, nobody likes me or whatever. So... just to give you that pointer next time. In fact, I'm not even going to try getting into this relationship stuff anymore. It just sucks. I'll just wait for a girl to ask ME out instead.. even tho it's not supposed to work that way o-o

ANYways.. that was my last love post so soak it in guys! d: We started touring the snow queen in schools recently. It's pretty interesting, but that's not entertaining to read about. Let's talk about our band, "Adrenaline Rush". We had our first band practice today. Let's summarize the members I had in my band..

Gabe - Drummer
Mary Kate - Singer
Gloria - Singer
Cheryl - Guitar/Singer
Christopher - Guitar
Blane - Bass
Milner - Keys

Here's who showed up today..

Gabe - Drummer
Mary Kate - Singer
Gloria - Singer
Cheryl - Guitar/Singer
Milner - Keys

Soo.. I'm still in need of a bass, and a tech guy. BUT, we sounded SOOOO much better than we all expected. We started out with "Blessed be your Name". We dominated that one the first time we played it. It was easy, but we sounded so good. I'm really proud of my current band at the moment.. These are all the guys I need so far! We also tryed "How he Loves Us", we couldn't quite get the beat to it at first on the drums and guitar, but we sort of got it a little later. I would've started with some Christmas rock, but I decided to start with contemporary christian because it's plain and simple. But Adrenaline Rush is a win!
