Hello everyone. I'm new around here, so please, be nice to me!
To be quite honest, I only registered so that I could get some advice, but hopefully, I'll have plenty of reasons to stick around!
Anyway, here's my problem. There's a girl. I've known her for many years. I've always thought she was pretty beautiful and intelligent, but I never felt anything for her. If something were to happen, it would occur naturally, and not forced (not in a bad sense, of course). I guess you say that I was attracted, but I never felt any passion or obsession for her.
So good so far. But recently, I've started to get mixed feelings about her. At first, I imagined that was probably because it's been a couple of months since I've been with a girl, so perhaps my hormones were deregulated (it wouldn't be the first time, so I'd capable of pin pointing the cause). But the thing is, I'm only get "turned on" (not in the literal sense) by her! Even if I'm around other girls, talking and having fun with them, I don't feel anything for them!
I'm constantly thinking about her. I dream about her. And I can't understand why!! I get confusing signals, whenever I'm watching television or reading books, or talking to someone, like some kind of message between the lines, impulsing me to express my feelings for her. Like there's some natural force trying to push me towards her. And the problem is, I don't know what to do! I'm afraid it will backfire, because I've known her for roughly five years, and we study together. We know a lot of people, and... rumours spread like fire in college. The last thing I need is getting my friendship with her ruined and obtaining a pseudo-Casanova reputation!
Honestly, I don't know how approach her about this issue. I'd like to play some mind-games with her first, trying to understand if the feeling is mutual through some subtle actions that'd allow me to read her.
I'm beginning to think that's she's emitting some pheromones that are driving me crazy!!
Help me guys (and gals)! And thanks a lot!
