lol u told her on msn?? hahaha, well that's alright i guess... i had a girl tell me that she liked me on msn before....
but anyways, why don't u give her a call sometime when she gets back, chat it up a little (not too long, or u'll run oout of things to say)
personally... i don't think theres anything wrong w/telling a girl you like her, you guys are still in highschool , it's not really until univ that telling a girl you like her can kill ya.
and in response to you being "popular and cool", no offense man, but one thing you'll eventually learn is noones gives a **** how popular u are or thought you were. When you apply for a job what are you going to write on your resume? "In the cool, popular crowed at school, please hire me"
don't decide to date someone based on their status, the other day i was talking to a girl i was kind of interested in, the moment she started saying how she used to be in the popoular crowd and how she used to be in a beauty pageant I lost all interest in her.
theres more important things than who's cool and who's not. If you and the girl get along and have fun together than gd stuff.
