Time running out . .

Sorry for the anon - im known to other users concerned.
Time running out, or atleast thats how i feel.

Basically i like someone, and i know they like me back. But i can't see us going anywhere fast - as in things are progressing very slowly.

The problem being theyre preparing for uni, which is not long away taking all into consideration.

Is there any point starting a relationship this close to going seperate ways?
Im thinking for their benefit - it'll make it more difficult for them for certain.

But i know i really like them - would anyone say theres time left?
Like recommendations? Would i be best leaving it or 'making a move quickly' rather than taking it at a natural pace, or even just sitting back and seeing what happens? But doing that makes me feel so helpless. :frown:

If sitting back and seeing if anything happens makes you feel helpless, then I think you answered your own question.

Go for it now, ask them out and at least if they so no, which they probably won't cos you say you think they like you back, then they'll be away at Uni in a few months so you don't need to worry :smile:

If they say yes, you'll work out the whole Uni thing :smile:

Ohhh and the reason people probably aren't answering so quick is because its almost 2am and they're asleep! Nothing to do with you writing unattractive threads - don't worry! :biggrin:

I started going out with my current gf about 2 months before going to uni...no regrets here. We are still together... You have plenty of time.

I think it's just the time of night. :wink:

To answer your question, I'd just go for it. You have all summer yet, and if they are interested, you'll have had enough time by then to make a proper, and informed decision about whether you should do the whole long-distance thing when she goes off to uni - and whether or not it's worth doing that. You might hate her by the time September comes (hopefully not - but you never know).

I'd say don't let uni put you off... go for it now, you've got plenty of time. Just don't waste any of it, by holding off any longer!

If it was early september I would say it wouldn't be fair on the other person (and you if youre doing to uni as well) to start a relationship just before you're going to be apart. But you've got ages to develop a great relationship before the next year of uni so if I were you I'd go for it :biggrin:

I would say what others had said on here, go for it, just tell her how you feel. She will probably think its sweet you're worried. You do have a few months anyway :smile:

and long distance relationships do work, mine did for a good few months
Godd luck dude

Yeah regrets are awful... When I think back, there are quite a few occassions where I really regret now not taking action. :frown:

you never know if it could work unless you try and you might stay together all through uni i know people who have.

hmm...i'm soon to be in the same position. It's distressing - i've liked this girl since we started the sixth form together and i never did anything about it...i feel like such a fool since i've left it too late. We've always been good friends..that's why i never made a move so as not to jeopardise our friendship - now i deeply regret it... :frown:
