I'm bored and it's a Thursday night, so I thought I might as well post about something that's been on my mind all evening at work. Why pass up the opportunity to be an attention-seeker?

Here's the issue. I have a girl who's a fairly good mate, but at the moment is no more than that. I really would like to try and make it go further, but if I risk it I might lose the friendship entirely (that very thing happened to one of my other friends).

I'll probably be seeing this person tomorrow night, and I'm stuck between two options, both of which could go badly. On the one hand, I could just do nothing, we could stay mates fine, but I'd end up kicking myself later on over the "might have been" (as I always do). On the other, if I try to get on her and pull it off, alls good, but if I fail and get rejected I'll be kicking myself even more. I can't be arsed to let it drag on any longer, since I'll probably be leaving town in just over a month.

So do I risk it or not? I figure I'll probably end up getting obscenely drunk and trying it on anyway, but I'd like to think rationally about it beforehand.

Risk it. Why throw away a live times of possible bliss? And if you don't, you'll be kicking yourself for the rest of your life. And also, if you get blind drunk, the next morning you and she will probably just put it down to drunken declarations of love (as we all do), which you can profusely regret and she will most likely forgive.

Go for it, and keep us updated.

I got on her mate

Oh well, could've been worse.

I got on her mate

I need clarification on this. Do you mean you, well, climbed on her mate, so to speak? If so, I wish you all the sexually transmitted diseases in the world. How come everyone else is taking the beaver to the fish market except me?

No it didn't get that far in the end. I am thus fortunately immune from your STD wrath lol. Now I'll just have to see what happens this saturday.

Go for it, just make sure that she doesn't write about your attempts on her in an article that's supposed to be about your writing.
