    Hey worst case you go on a few good dates, become vulnerable with each other, realize you’d trade everything else to be with her, then fuck it up and now she hates you and you’re still hung up on her a whole god damned year later

    We are excited dust that formed by accident on a mud ball hurdling through space at 67,000mph in a minor spiral arm of our galaxy.

    Nothing matters. So go for it.

    Take it from a middle aged guy who wants family and has none: the fear of asking her out is nothing next to the horror of being alone.

      You can have both! I asked her a few times, but she moved away and married someone else, so I’m alone for now! Best of both worlds!

          But if I’d let go first, I’d never have asked, at all. I think you all need to get your bumper sticker advice straight.

          Edited to say: 1.) I’m not bitter, 2.) I’m totally fine with all this, 3.) I’ve so let go. Like, it’s crazy how hung up I’m not.

      For me, it wasn’t fear of asking her out, it was that I had about 3/100 emotional hitpoints left and our respawn SUUUUCKSSS.

    The rock ain’t floating, it’s falling with some speed sideways.

    And the absurdity of the universe, in wich your biomechanical functions are part of, shouldn’t impact the value we make of us.

      This was my first reaction as well… We most certainly are not literally on a floating rock. Stay in school, meme creator.

    “So… uh… we’re all rotting lumps of flesh caught in the gravity well of a floating rock in space. Wanna hang out?”

    Most the people I dated would have thought that was cool, til around the end of college age.

        My other trick was, at a party, to sit in a big easy chair and slowly fall asleep while looking at someone I liked. it’s a trick I learned from a cat.

          You should’ve just crawled into my their lap. We literally live on a rock - why not? :-O
