I didn't mean to offend you, EW. How much older is he? I won't be mean to you!

Fine, I'll tell you. Don't tease me or anything. He's four years older. Yes, I know, that's a pretty big age difference!

Don't worry, we won't tease you! :) We're Chatterboxers!!! Oh, well, I guess that doesn't make a difference in some cases... Well, I won't tease you. :) So how do you know this older guy?? Does he go to your school (oh I guess not) or church or something??

He goes to my Church. I know his little sister, who is a year older than I am. She doesn't know that I have a huge crush on him. A lot of other people do, though. :-(

Well, you don't have to feel bad; almost every girl likes an older guy at some point in her life (well, almost every girl other than me). ;) AGH!!! NO!!!! My flybite started bleeding again!!!!! The other day, I was at RiteAid, and I felt something on my arm, so I looked down and saw my arm was covered in blood!! I freaked out, ran into the bathroom, and washed my arm, but the tiny, little flybite would NOT stop bleeding (I hadn't even scratched it!). Soo, we ended up having to get some band-aids, but it still took about a half hour to stop the bleeding. It was really weird!! :)

Actually, I don't really like him anymore. I really like this guy that's only three years older than me, though. *sigh* I'm sick of middle school. It's awful even when you're homeschooled!

Being the wise old man that I am, I'm going to tell you something you may not know: love is nothing like the wacky slime they have on TV nowadays, that's called immature junk. DO NOT FLIRT! It's stupid. Be yourself. If they don't like you for who you are, then either you are crazy, or they are not a good "choice". I've had troubles in the past trying to impress girls and looking weird. If you have a hobby that the opposite gender might enjoy, that's a good start. (Ocarinas for the world!) Hope this helps.

Well said, Cramer.

Good advice.
(August 24, 2009 - 9:01 am)
Encore!
(August 24, 2009 - 11:28 am)
Gee, thanks.

Why are you being ashamed, Emily?
(August 26, 2009 - 8:05 pm)
I was replying to Emily H.'s observation.
(August 27, 2009 - 2:33 pm)
Don't be ashamed, Emily! In truth I'm not exactly sure what you're ashamed of... anyway, here's a smilie to cheer you up! :)
