I never post on &T. But S&A seems to be a good board, and my friends give no helpful advice.

The story goes like this, I live in Manchester, UK. I travelled down the London, to meet up with a friend. Now, this friend, introduced me to all her friends. And one of them... As soon as they said Hi, I really liked them.

To cut a long story fairly short, by the next day, we went to a party everybody, and I pretty much fell in love with this girl. We talked all night, I woke up next to her the next day, we didn't have sex, ofcourse it was too soon for that.

But I'm convinced I love this girl, I don't know why, she feels the same.

Now, fair enough, just travel down to London now and then, meet up half way, whatever. Here's my problem:

I'm still in school. I don't have money. I don't have a car. I can see this girl by getting a train, but it's so expensive I can't afford it most of the time. You can't, or maybe you can, understand how much I want to be with this girl. I don't think about much else, but I know it can't work, I swear somebody up there must hate me 'cos it's torture.

Sorry for the long post, and thanks for reading this far. I just want a solution, I know that I need to let it go. I can get with other girls up here, but I have no desire to. I don't want to stop thinking about her. I wish it never happened, but at the same time I'm so happy it did.

What should I do, &T?

Check this shit out, it's called freewill and everyone is born with it. Fuck preconceptions and all other bullshit. Do what you really want.

get someone to give you a ride?
get a job to use the train?

go to bad ideas , get some bad ideas to make money to use the train?

your still in school and your confusing love with infatuation?

I know. I mean, it's difficult. I want to see this girl so much, but I can barely see her because shes so far away. But if I keep thinking about her, I can't do anything up here because I have NO desire for other girls.

You hit the nail on the head there.

I know you're right, but it doesn't change this frustration.

Brace yourself for some overwhelming pain.

I recommend movies, drugs etc

Quit school. Move to where she lives. Get a job.

Problem solved.

p.s. and please don't give me none of that "wah wah but i can't quit school wut bout my future!!" stuff. If you truly love her to such an overwhelming degree like you said you do, then nothing, and I do mean nothing, should pose as an obstacle to you.

Give it a shot, what do you have to lose?

That said, keep realistic expectations in the back of your mind so you don't get decked from the side by a steaming dose of reality.

I'm still in compulsory school.

What's that? Like, you are still in highschool or something?

It doesn't matter because my point still stands. Unless you are so young as to be unable to work. In which case you are pretty much screwed.
