Dear Dish-It, is here to whisper "ttyl after I've thought about this some more".
Dear Dish-It,
I'm a 14 year-old punk rockin' sk8er and I, like, went to this disco, and I was gettin' with this chick and we've always been friends, but just at the disco I found out that I am, like, totally in love with this girl. She is the perfect one and apparently she likes me too (well, so her friends say). Well anyway, I wanna make sure she really likes me first. See, I've done the flirting thing - I'm usually a hardcore sk8er but I try the nice, sweet thing for her cause I don't wanna make a bad impression because I totally dig her. So, what should I do? Please help me, I'm goin' insane.
Dear punk_rock_anarchist,
Before you go trying to get with some "chick" there are a few things you're probably going to want to work on. First, don't call girls you are interested in "chicks." Most girls aren't cool with being objectified - especially by guys who they might want to date. Next, punk_rock_anarchist, stop referring to yourself as a hardcore skater. Only peeps looking to prove something label themselves. If you really are a hardcore skater, there's no need to mention it, cuz everyone will just know. Lastly, it's good to be nice to this girl but don't put on some crazy act just so she'll go out with you, cuz she will eventually find out who the real you really is. Wouldn't you rather her fall for that guy instead of a cheesy, nice, sweet guy who doesn't really exist? Since you've been friends for a long time, chances are she already likes you for you. Good Luck!
So, ya gotta burnin' question? Need some love directions? Thinkin' 'bout stuff like depression, sex,how ya feel 'bout YOURSELF (that's called "self-esteem"), boyfriends, girlfriends, losin' old friends, bullyin' or peer pressure, but too scared to ask the parents? Don't be scared to .
