I'm also glad to hear you're ok.

[EphelDuath666]

well, let's hope all the weather chaos in Australia in general will calm down now. You guys had some rough weeks!

It's so good to hear that you and everyone else are alright! Is your friend ok? After disregarding everything SES have been saying about rooves blowing off?

The poor bananas! How am I going to survive without bananas?

Haha, yeah he's alright. Needs a good smack upside the head though, I can't believe he did that.
Went for a bit of a drive round the local area, we got off lightly. Trees and fallen powerlines everywhere. Didn't see any structural damage to anything though, except at a local primary school where their big outdoor tin-rooved thing covering the basketball courts got totally destroyed, and a couple of people's back fences have fallen. It'll take a long time to clean up, but at least it's only trees in the street and in people's yards as opposed to broken windows and damaged rooves and things.

I have a gut feeling that the Universe has decided to quit being a dick to Queensland now..
But hey, who knows. Deal with it if or when it comes, I guess.

About the bananas, I know! They're saying $15/kilo, it's insane. No more fruit salad for awhile, I guess.

Glad to hear there's been no loss of life.
Fingers crossed now for the weather to stop being so ridiculous to you guys!

On the positive side you should be able to contribute some great songwriting to the forum's house Emo band.

In love with a girl who don't even notice me

Happens to all of us, friend. When you fixate too much on one particular person, it hurts all the more. The key is to remember that if there's one person you feel that strongly for, and there's so many people out there, who knows? You might find someone who you like even better who meshes with you.

Personally, I just end up in the neverending cycle the housemates call "the Prophecy." This of course is the legend that tells a story of if Cody enjoys the company of a certain woman, she must be gay.

It used to bother me, but at this point, I know better than to let it drag me down.

I think another really important thing to remember about love and relationships, is that when you're initially into a person, all you know or see is the external, the persona they themselves put forth. Who they are inside could be completely different. And you never really know until you're in a serious relationship with someone for a length of time and get exposed to all of their idiosyncrasies and the full spectrum of their emotions.

So while I could say there's plenty more fish in the sea, the way I'd sum it best is simple, they're probably not as great as the inhuman pedestal you put them on.

You'll be fine.

Thank you! I was afraid people would make fun of this. Never trust in forums. Respect to you!
The thing is that it's very rare for me to fall in love. Theres a rare beauty in this girl that makes my legs weak.
But as you say, theres plenty more fish in the sea i guess.

Everyone can relate. I had 6 years between girlfriends, and much pining in between, before luck took my side. It's rare to find that special someone, but it happens. Just don't let anxiety get the better of you.

Yeah, I too can relate. A good thing to do is to try and carry on normally, and then you'll find someone. Trust.

One thing you guys will notice is that Cody is often right, sometimes painfully so

I also relate.
In this case though it's fair to say the old addage 'nice folk finish last' seems to be proving true.
Then again, being 24 and living alone with 2 cats probably doesn't give off the best of impressions, but eh I try

</emo>

Add me to the emo train, as I too can relate.

I've blabbered about it on here before - kinda embarrassed about some of the stuff I said now, but meh.

I'm stuck in a bit of a rut with it all, still... but I try to hold my head up as much as I can, I'll get nowhere if not. Plus, there will always be others out there who have it worse.

This "love/relationship" stuff just comes out of nowhere though, so just hold tight, cus when it happens, you'll look back at this period of your life and find it pretty funny.

In love with a girl who don't even notice me

Same here. I call her my wife. *badump bump crash!*

Seriously though, if you care about her, then you need try your damnedest to get her to notice you. Of course that is easier said than done, but there are some things worth making the extra effort for. There are two possible outcomes: You get the girl, or you don't. You already don't have her, so the only real direction you can go is up. Love is worth the struggle. It is worth the pain and humiliation. It is worth living for, and dying for. No, I am not being overly dramatic. I truly believe those words.

I was (and still very much am) a social misfit. I have always had a difficult time with approaching women. I've fallen in love a few times, and have been burned in the process. However, I do not regret making the attempts. As humiliating and dejecting some of those rejections were, I look back now with a sense of pride for my courage at the time. Also, finding out immediately whether or not you have a chance at a relationship with a person closes that door, and allows you to move on a lot faster instead of always being left wondering.

So take the chance. Life is way too short. Love is beautiful.

I think the beard confused you there.
