It's not you...
by Ok, so i was having a conversation the other day reminiscing about the first time i heard a 'line'. I liked a sister in my HS and i was 17 and she found out. So she said she was just 16 and young and wanted to concentrate on spiritual things and pioneer when she got out of school.
I felt bad that i hadn't felt that way and i really admired her for her honestly and devotion. BUT, the next day i was talking to a worldy girl who knew her and she was like, "WHAT? Her boyfriend (not a witness by the way) broke up with her and she is trying to get back together with him!"
So i was of course upset that i had been fed a 'line'. It was the first of a few. Anybody else? Any good first line stories? Or any good stories in general about a line you were given? Or any bad ones?

this is the moment that you know
that you told her you loved her but you don't
you touch her skin and then you think
that she is beautiful
but she don't mean a thing to me...
so one last touch and then you'll go
and we'll pretend that it meant something so much more
but it was vile, and it was cheap
and you are beautiful
but you don't mean a thing to me
Love the way you love, but i hate the way
I'm supposed to love you back.
Remember today, i've no respect for you
and i miss you love, i miss you love...
you two are kindred
there's no blame for how our love did slowly fade
and now that it's gone, it's like it wasn't there at all
and here i rest where disappointment and regret
collide when i'm lying awake at night
i was guilty of this once. reason though....when i was getting to know this brother, we would talk and hang out with groups. Then when it was "official" that we were courting, he changed. i realized he wasn't the person i was getting to know. I gave it a chance but everything about him became annoying. So I ended it quickly thereafter. BUT i didn't just all of a sudden start dating someone after though. Thats the only diff. with me.
how about:
::all up IN my grill:: "I like you. I really like you."
next day:
"Uhh, that was a big mistake. I'm not ready for any of this. I'm working on getting more privileges. I shouldn't have done that. We should just leave it as 'we'll see' for now."
2 weeks later:
::all up in my friend's grill::
OH JUNK! What'supwithTHAT? what a punker.
This is EXACTLY what i'm talking about! I hate when they break up with you after some time and swear they never liked a certain person only to date them later on...
Why can't people take responsibility for their own actions and BE HONEST? and don't initiate if you have ZERO intentions..and then try to play the same lame game to her friend as if.
THINK b4 you ACT fellas.
Hold up, wait a minute. Sometimes a line seems like a line even though it isnt a line. Sometimes you really may not be looking for someone, or interested in starting anything and the next thing you know boom your in love with someone else(or you think you are anyway)
PS - In some cases what would you like people to say, i dont like you, you smell, your ugly, your not in my league etc. Sometimes I am not interested in dating right now is a nice way to say I dont like you.
fine and dandy but if you don't like someone you should NOT be trying to make-out with them, correct??
whoa! no making out till your engaged...thats my motto. deal with it!
aw, that's cute.
no kissing with tongues until you are married?
you know me so well!
ewww, kissing with tongues? How disgusting.
this all started when i was talking to a teenager who was not allowed to even be dating and she was saying how she liked this boy soo much and i said "no kissing until you are engaged" (cribbed from the ypa book "until marriage seems imminent") i immediately saw from her ducking glance that i was too late for that so i said "no kissing with tongues then" and of course, everyone laughs about it, but i stand by the advice.
well marriage is imminent.. does it have to be with the one you're kissing?
make your own rules! its a free for all up in here
best line ever.
this was marked as informative, but it should be, 'way too informative'
Making out? You shouldn't be doing that unless the relationship is already serious. You dont make out and then ask weather or not the person likes you, at least in the truth.
And also if you are hanging with guys, in the truth that are trying to get at you and then they play you out saying cheesy lines like its not you, or stuff like that you better start hanging out with some new people, cause they are either walking the fence or just very immature.
Whoa there, NOT what I said...
numero uno: there was no making out.
secondly: there WAS NO MAKING OUT! said he "wanted to" and the reason I did not allow that was cuz I didn't know him like that yet and THEN he renegged with that line.
the best line i think i have ever heard was a girl who told a guy who will remain nameless that she was busy and when he asked if he could see her another weekend she said she was busy every weekend...
dude, every time i hear a line, and i tell a friend, it gets back...i don't know how...but EVERY time...but that makes me laugh, because then maybe the person will realize how lame the line sounded.
