To call, or not to call?
Ok, so there's this girl named Bethany that I really liked back in California where I used to live.
She was so perfect in so many ways.
She was just like me, and she understood a lot of stuff that other girls just looked past... But, I had to move here to San Antonio TX....
Ok, so I moved!
Big deal right?
Sure I was sad...
But like most people, I got over it.
No, not because I met another girl... >_>
Anyway, where was I?
Right.
So about 8 months or so after I moved, I looked at my phone,
I had a missed call.
I recognized it.
My head, thick and heavy, my thumb shaking to hit the call button.
Hold on... Hold on...
First let me tell you how I recognized her number.
She used to put her number in my phone, and call me and hang up when she was with her friends laughin' it out and stuff.
(Sort of a weird way of flirting I guess.)
(I just deleted it is all.)
One of her friends (Who was also my friend) said that
"All she wants to do is talk about YOU!"
I was all like, "whhhhhaaaattt..."
You know, fake sounding. ;]
You see, with me and her, we just knew that we liked eachother...
We just never said anything.
Or... At least... She knew I liked her... It was hard for me to read her...
But... I blew it big time...
I didn't tell her...
I think it's because I didn't think I would have liked as much as I did.
I should have told her...
I just didn't want to get laughed at or anything...
So I left CA without saying anything.
:[
When I got here, I asked one of my friends via myspace,
to tell her that I liked her.
They did it, and told me that she didn't believe him,
and I wasn't about to go ask my friend to SHOW her the message or anything...
So I dropped it.
(This was a couple months before I saw the missed call)
Anyway!
So it's been about a half year ever scince I got the call, and I never bothered to call back. (I Just let it go.)
But there was always that chance that it wasn't her,
(I know that's a petty excuse...)
So anyway, risk of embarrasment is pretty much the reason I haven't called that number.
So the reason I bring this up after so long is because i've been having these dreams about her...
In my dreams she shows up at my door really late and we walk around and just talk about nothing.
Which is sort of what we used to do back in CA.
So here I am... Wondering why i'm having these dreams...
Should I call the number?
Before you answer...
Please think about it...
Don't rush your answer.
I also can't find her on any Social networking sites
(Myspace, Youtube, facebook, ETC.)
And if this sounds ridiculous, it is.
BELIEVE ME, I KNOW.
It's hard to explain...
It's just not as simple as some people think...
(Apologies for any grammar/spelling errors.)
I hate grammar... >.<"

wow that was a mission. phew man im all wiped out now :D
i hate grammar too lol anyways to the Q
ive thought kinda hard and kinda long about this and i think you should call her. just go for it.
i think you're dreams are telling you something really obvious - that you still really like her, want to walk with her in real life too and that you should call her. I think if you brain digs things up in your sleep its like its subconciouly telling you to do them :S
i doesnt really sound ridiculous to me cos im always doing things like this ie getting into funny memory pickles. (if im not making any sense its me not you :) ) when you said that the reason you didnt call was for risk of embarasment, well i think you're being very silly and unmanly! you really like her and could talk to her again but instead you choose not to because you may get embarrased. sorry, i think im being kinda harsh but never mind. i get that it isnt as simple as ringing her so please dont think im just saying the obvious but instead if thinking how you COULD be put into an embarassing situation think about how GREAT it will be to talk to her again. This is all about confidence and having enough umph to pick up the phone. close your eyes, breathe and just do it. dont be freaked out or scared :) and when you do please email me cos youve caught my attention and i want to hear what happens. (im not making fun here) i hope it all works out and sorry this was such a long answer. my boyfriend says when i start talking there aint no stopping me so i guess he's right!!

I rush this answer and life is speeding by you, what you dream is what was real in the past, and what is real now. You could have that , waves of the future, catch the surf. Call her back before she moves on from your hurtful rejection.
Women are emotionally unstable, insecure,do you really think that whilst your feelings were almost out in the open was a great time to going missing for half a year!?
Damn, you better hope she has not moved on if you still like her...

I read every word, and coming from a fellow guy, I would say there's NOTHING, absolutely nothing holding you back.
You have absolutely nothing to lose; you two are a few hundred miles apart by now, so what are you waiting for?
Call her, ask her how she is, make small talk, and then tell her (not abruptly) that you used to like her and that you didn't know whether or not she shared those feelings, and just listen for a response; she might admit that she used to like you a lot as well, and you can move on not having to wonder whether or not she used to like you.
Nothing to lose man

hey sweetie.. if your having dreams about her.. you really like her.. maybe you should call back.. and man up and tell her why you didnt say anything when you left and how you were nervous to call back because of what she would be thinking... listen.. if its meant to be it will happen one way or another and maybe this call was a little something to make you realize that shes not over you.. even if it ends up being that it wasnt her that called.. its always nice to catch up.. but honestly.. tell her how you feel and im being really serious.. youve got nothing to lose.. you dont live there anymore so its not like youll see her if she doesnt feel the same way .. but honestly even if you do tell her and she doesnt feel the same way its a burden of your chest.. because you didnt say anything and now your feeling like you should have you know.. so itll be easier on you.. and you never know.. maybe she does feel the same way about you.. youll never know.. and usually girls like it better when guys are the first one to say i like you.. and it shud be heard from the person himself.. cuz i wouldnt believe if my friend told me either.. just cuz i know how girls are.. were always teasing each other about guys and event hough were serious it doesnt seem real till the person says it.. so go for it! i hope itll work out!!!

Call her, please do that, she liked you more than you think and now you are stuck on her, forget about the embarrassment issue , i feel your suffering is more and that she really needs to know if you liked her and still do. You got nothing to loose! Have a piece of mind and get it done today or at the Valentine's day would be perfect , you will have a excuse, but can you wait that long and suffer?

If you have dreams about her your expressing your feeling but not out loud but in your head. When you hold back any thing like that it ends out getting blurted out or you start to dream about it because you have so many feelings you have to bring it straight out forward. If you choose not to call her chances are that she's going to get someone else to love. Chances that you call her, you probably won't get to be her boyfriend (Like hanging out) but you would still probably talk to her every day. It's mostly your choice if you want to like her or if you want to forget everything you guys shared. Think about it. This is the hardest decision you will ever make in your life. Basically your choosing who your going to let into your life or your choosing who to not bring in your life. Think about wether this girl from a scale of 1-10 how she makes you feel, who much you have the urge to do something with her, do you want her in your life, or forget her and throw all of your things away and start fresh and look for another girl. If she says she doesn't believe you that you like her, than she isn't ready for trust, but if she likes you she's ready for a relationship just has to work on trusting eachother. If you choose to be with her you have to promise and trust her and she has to trust you that you both aren't cheating on eachother. That's all for now. Later! Hope this helps!

I thought about it, and yes you should definitely call this number. Theres probably a big chance that it is her, since the number was familiar. When she answers just tell her who you are, and dont forget to tell her how you used to like her and about how you werent sure if you should call her back or not after such a long time. And most definitely tell her about your dream! Because if she did like you she probably thought about you, or maybe even dreamed about you:]
Hope that helps. If i was her this would definitely work.

Yeah give her a call. She if she has a myspace or facebook (sometimes ppl go by different names or variations). Keep in touch. It can't hurt, although be prepared that she may have moved on. Good luck!

CALL HER! if she called you and it's been 6 months and you never called her back she is probably hurt and wondering why you haven't called back. so call and say you are calling just to catch up and are sorry about not calling her back so long ago you were really busy. if you miss her then i bet talking to her will make you feel better! you never know what will happen, best you luck to you :)
