i have a crush on my neighbor?

[Cain]

Yeah, yeah, I did that. Dunno how bad it is for others, but I got past it.

You'll get over having your leg blown off too, but I doubt you're going to walk into a mine field.

[Aegis]

You jackass.

[Aegis]

I swear this place would really benefit from IRC or some type of real-time chat.

Aegis trust me, it's not as bad as Cain has it seems to be. It all depends on the adults' personality. I was quite comfortable with my neighbor. If it was a man who calls his ex negative names then yes he will mostly not be able to handle seeing her daily. That just really shows you his true personality though. Or, it may be an issue for younger people who have difficulty dealing with this type of thing, I don’t know.

[Only-virgins]

Wonder if she went for it. She should. I completely agree with Aegis.

[Cain]

Like I've said, I just don't understand this mindset of "gotta take every single opportunity I can no matter the circumstance!" It's not like you'll never meet another woman... shit.

[Aegis]

It's not that damn serious dude...no matter how it works out, things get really awkward or it doesn't happen, it's not a big deal. Might as well try it, if she's into him.

It's not just this thread. It's the same excuse people use when they try to justify interfering in a relationship too. I just don't understand it.

[Aegis]

It's just looking out for one's own interest. Wait for things to fall into your lap, or go after them.

[shh!]

I think you should proceed slowly, but definitley proceed. What's to lose? You can always move if the absolute worst happens, but you will probably find you don't like him as much as you thought after you've talked to him a couple of times, anyway. As long as you moved in slowly, you can back out quickly and easily.

[Cain]

I'm gonna go on the record as saying that she should pursue him ONLY IF he doesn't have a girlfriend. My whole talk about the psycho neighbor ex thing was just a "something to think about."

But I will stand by my opinion that if he has a gf, don't pursue him.
