Goddamnit. Girl gets hired into the store I work at sometime earlier this year, p. cute, whatever. I start talking to her a bit, but not a ton - then July comes around. We plan to hang out one night but end up having to delay it a bit. She goes camping and texts with me non-stop (like 2000+ texts over the course of that week) and when she gets back we keep talking a lot. We kept talking more then eventually made plans to hang out again and I casually mentioned it to someone at work and she got upset because people started talking as if her and I were dating. I didn't see the big deal about it, but apparently it bugged her so she got a bit pissy over it all so we kind of stopped talking for few weeks as things calmed down. But recently ended up talking to her more again, and it was the whole silly flirty thing it had been before (which is fucking completely gay bullshit - don't be flirty if you just "want to be friends"), and so she ended up inviting me to her Powderpuff football game tomorrow (high school senior, just shut the fuck up with your comments), and so I asked her today when it was - said she'd text me later when it was. Ended up having lunch with her and chilled together on our breaks, and it was seeming to - by my view and a few others - progress beyond that whole "just want to be friends" thing, then out of nowhere I get a text from her saying basically that I shouldn't really even bother going to the game.
It was just such a sudden shift in the way things had been building up. Kind of disappointing, but whatever. Whats a few months wasted time...
I sound vaguely like an episode of Degrassi...
