To put it simply, its a sexual reference.

I'm pretty sure that I know what the shoe size question is about, and it isn't exactly the most innocent of things. Of course, the girl could've just been asking a random question about his shoes. I hope so at least. Ah, Random Shoes. Torchwood in da house! Anyone...? No? Fine. ^ I'm very sure that the guys have no idea what the shoe size thing is about. Yes, we do. At least, Matt and I do. It's basically........how to put this? The size of certain appendages are indicators of the size of certain other appendages. Does that clear it up? On a side note? Arrrrgh!!!!! I went out with some mates tonight, as I'm home for the weekend, and met a girl I work with when I'm home in the holidays, and have liked for a while. Suffice to say, we hit it off, drank, danced for a bit, and then, as I was getting quite close to her, my mates dragged me off, cos it was time to go home! Darn them! Darn them all! I am destined to be single.... Oh yeah, cascade, the 'mom' thing? Was that serious? I'm bad when it comes to internet sarcasm.... Ah, the brain-numbness of alcohol I am currently experencing...... {passes out, then throws up}

^ Fair enough. Honestly, I would never have guessed. You're only a few months older than me, right? I haven't even taken that first step with a girl. Being a complete nerd doesn't help. ;D But what's the fun of being online if you don't have some secrets? I have a terrible habit of asking people what their zodiac sign is, as well as their favorite color and middle name like within 5 minutes of meeting them. Its really only because I'm a curious-natured person, but usually ppl think it's a little cuckoo. So I've tried to stop doing that so much, hehe. That's fine. If someone was 100% normal, I'd think that was even stranger than being wierd. I like wierd people. {Chants} One of us! One of us! One of us! One of us! One of us! Leo, Blue, William & John. I'm in that kinda mood tonight. Need to sleep before the alcohol wears off! ;D

Not to divert away from the freakin awesome subject matter already being discussed {sarcasm} But uh, yeah, even though I kind of made a promise to myself not to bother you guys with the insignificant and might I add insane personal romantic-esque issues of my life, I currently have a bit of an issue that kind of won’t leave me alone unless I tell someone about it, so here goes: -cue climatic music- I like someone. Random poster: Wtf? That’s all? I want my money back! Me: you didn’t pay anything! Random poster: oh…well, can I borrow five bucks, then? See what I mean? That’s what’s happened to my mind ever since I realized that I like this person. I’ve lost it. Totally lost it. I actually made an effort to not like this person (not that its anything personal against them, I just don’t like to have complicated emotions about other ppl) but still, I like them. I mean, I’m not in love or anything, but the fact that I like them, but that they don’t know that I like them is kind of driving me insane. Yeah, I know, I’m 20. I’m pretty sure I’m the oldest chick here actually, but when it comes to this kind of thing I may as well be a wimpy school girl. (No offense to the actual school-aged chicks here; I'm not calling you wimps, I'm just making an analogy.) …Well anyway, I guess my point is that I want advice on what I should do from all of you who are awesome enough to post a response. I can’t really say that I need advice, coz I’m almost 97% sure I still won’t tell this person either way, but if you don’t mind humoring me and my warped mind with responses, I’d truly appreciate it.

Don't worry I doubt that anyone really truly cares about the possible correlation between the size of a person's foot to a specific body part.
Well I'm probably the last person to give relationship advise (partially because I would be in close to the same boat as you in few terms) but why would you be fighting it so much? If you know that you like them what makes you think that it isn't mutual? Again this is advise coming form a guy that wouldn't be able to follow through with it himself.
And don't worry, a warped mind is never a bad thing. "There is a fine line between being a genius and crazy, it is measured only by success." Not sure where that quote came from originally but I like it. And I would be taking a guess that this issue is the reason for the multiple changes in your avatar and signature?

Not sure where that quote came from originally but I like it. And I would be taking a guess that this issue is the reason for the multiple changes in your avatar and signature? Well first, yeah, that is/was the cause for the avatar/sig switches. Particularly the ''Teardrops On My Guitar'' quote one. But I do tend to switch avatars a lot anyway. And why am I fighting it? This will sound cliche as all get out, but, honestly, it's because every single time I've ever gotten up the courage to tell someone how I feel, the feeling has never been mutual. Okay, once. Kinda. I mean, I do have a kid, but even so, looking back, he wasn't actually in love with me. He thought I was pretty cool for liking video games and Pokemon like he did, but it wasn't love. It was horomones. So I go back to my initial response of legitemate, ''hey, I think you're pretty awesome. wanna be together?" kind of feelings never being reciprocated. I have 3 vivid memories of confessions gone awry, one of which was pretty hilarious, but that's not the point. God, I talk a lot, even when I'm just writing. Anyway, the point is that I'm 97% sure they won't feel the same way. And I don't like those odds. I don't like the fact that there's only a 3 percent chance that this person will think I'm awesome, too.

Alright then I guess it all comes down to one fact. Now you don't have to answer this for any reason if you don't want to, but why do you think that there is only a 97% chance of them returning how you feel? Is it just because of your other experiences or is there another part to it?

Is it just because of your other experiences or is there another part to it? Well...hmm. I guess subconsciously I have a feeling that people my age aren't so keen on getting into relationships, or even just dating ppl who already have a kid. Another part of it is because, well, not to be full of myself, but I don't think I'm ugly. I am, however, and always have been, overweight. Cliche as all get out, I know. Yeah, and actually, that last fact probably played a big part in my past experiences. And then there's just the simple fact that luck is never on my side in these sorts of situations. I'm kind of surprised I'm posting this here for god and everyone to see, but keeping it all bottled up was making me go insane. But anyway, I really do want to tell them, but the thought alone makes me feel sick, because I'm pretty sure they'll reject the idea. Then again, maybe I've just known jerks my whole life. That's why I want your opinions, because maybe one of you has known someone that wasn't a complete jerk to someone who wanted to be with them. edit: after re-reading my post, I realize that I must come across as whiny complainer that has not much to actually complain about other than a lack of self-confidence. I'm sorry about that--I don't mean to be all ''woe is me'', I guess I just need the right boost of confidence that will get me to buck up and tell this person how I feel.

Well thats where my help runs out. Hopefully someone else can give better advise than I did.

It would yield more advice if you ask someone around your age who has a relationship for tips and advice. Dryuu, now Redeemer Ryu, and Sweetgirl are a couple around your age, and as well as Wolfofdoom and Stanmarsh.
Are you sure you're overweight? There are some girls/women who THINK they're overweight, but they actually have a normal body weight. I guess this thought can be attributed to lack of confidence.
Even if you are overweight, it should not get in your way too much. I know of an overweight girl at my school who is in good terms with the guys, but it is mainly because...
...she is VERY kind and understanding...
...and she knows how to bake, and she is generous about passing out the food she makes, whether it be brownies, cupcakes, etc.

So, if I bake him a batch of brownies he'll warm up to me?
I'm sorry, but there was a whole myriad of jokes that came to mind when I read your post, and that was the nicest one. Yeah, I'm sure I'm overweight--at least, that's what the stupid mirror keeps telling me. But thanks anyway, now I know that at least somewhere in the world there is a happy, overweight chick on good terms with guys.
