Part 11: http://fuckyeahhlove.tumblr.com/post/1476848822/the-pursuit-of-love-part-11
Summer 2007
Sailor G. Sailor comes from the fact she was a fan of Sailor Moon and G is part of her name—I didn’t remember asking her favorite scout. Who was she? She was a girl from that youth group I was part of. It would be my last year. I don’t remember how I started liking her. However, I would think that my mind just became fixed on a cute girl. Of course, I went through the same rounds.
I would talk to her on AIM and play the game 20 Questions to get to know her. It was actually a repeat of Radio Girl. The difference was that I thought Sailor G was cuter. To me, she seemed very innocent. I was very much attracted to innocent girls and I thought she wasn’t one of those shallow ones. She had good values to my memory.
Over our conversations, I learned things about her—I see from AIM logs that I was mad awkward when I’d talk to her. For one, her favorite Pokemon was Vulpix. Second, she wanted a Tamagotchi. You know, the craze when I was in like 2nd Grade. Also, she liked pandas. We were considering adopting one with the WWF(World Wildlife Fund).
Well, I bet you guessed what I did. Nah. I didn’t adopt the panda, but I got the other things. I found a Vulpix plush lying around my house and bought the Tamagotchi with my own money—bad move.
Lesson 21
Never use money towards buying their interest
They might be flattered at the gesture, but they’re not going to be any more attracted to you for it.
Of course, I still tried talking to her. Sadly, I could not make it to her birthday party. And of course, I told her that I liked her in some time. Like every girl, she might have been flattered by saying “aws”, but she just didn’t feel the same. We never adopted the panda even to this day.
Now, you’re probably going to say the same things. If he did things differently, the story would be different. He wouldn’t be rejected so often, right?
Lesson 22
The right person doesn’t see all the mistakes you make in courting, they see that you’re an amazing person.
