Comment:

over thanksgiving break i stayed with one of my best friends. during those 5 days i realized that i think i'm in love with her, so the day we got back to school i asked her out (on a sunday). i figured that best case scenario we go out, worst case she says no and i deal. so finally, on tuesday night she came over and said that she wasn't ready for that intense a relationship yet - she said that she could actually see us getting married, and that frightened her. i was handling it pretty well... until she left my apartment. it was at this point that i broke down and the hurt set in. i've had my share of heartbreak in my time, but that really left me devastated. so after crying for a while (not your big-girl-we're-out-of-ice-cream crying, i mean REALLY crying) i did what any emo-at-heart would do: make a mix cd. today was the first time i've spoken to her since that night, briefly on IM because despite the fact that i dont think i could handle seeing her, i still really miss her. the only question left is do i give her a copy of the mix?

Sheeow, I know this mix all too well. Anything mix that starts with "Porcelain" is bad juju. I wouldn't give her this one just yet. Instead, I'd whip up a slightly more positive, "c'mon take a chance" kind of mix, with maybe a couple of these tracks (the more subtle ones) slipped in. She might come around in the next several weeks on her own, so a gentle coaxing mix would be more in order. Just my opinion, of course!
