So with the nearing of Valentine's Day, we come to a point where you might be floundering. Here's where I come in. I don't purrsonally have a Valentine so I'm offering up my services as romantic extraordinaire to help you plan the perfect date!

Or just the perfect gift or confession maybe! Either way, I'm here to help!

so if there is someone you really really like (´▽`ʃƪ)♡
but you don't know if they like you back
and even if they do they might never do anything because they're a bit older (u_u¿)
what do you do to make them notice how you feel?

Private - Text

[hearmyfeels]

:o That's a hard one!
Hmn, well how obvious do you want to be?
You could give them a letter, a bouquet. Ohh you could flower that mean something. Though that's a little roundabout. Not many people know about flower languages anymore. Though if you want to be subtle, that's good! I suppose.

I think I want to be pretty obvious
because I'm not even sure he thinks of me that way at all ƪ(‾_‾)ʃ
I mean getting him flowers on valentines could be pretty obvious but
maybe I should add a letter or something like that?

Private - Text

[hearmyfeels]

You could! It would be pretty obvious.

Can I ask a question though? I'll keep the answer a sworn secret!

Private - Text

[spes_phthisica]

I'm probably not good at writing love letters though（/｡＼)
but I really want him to understand how I feel sigh

(●⌒∇⌒●) of course

[hearmyfeels]

It doesn't have to be eloquent, just from the heart! (=^・^=)

But meowst importantly. How much older are they? Like a year or are we talking potentially too much age gap?
(=｀ω’=) I don't judge, some people like the older guys.

[spes_phthisica]

(//･_･//) I've never really had feelings like this before
so I'm finding it a bit hard to find words for it

and he's twelve years older
or well technically ten but it's a bit weird

and a teacher /(;-_-)

[hearmyfeels]

(= xェx =)
Mr. Hijikata right?
He's such a toughie! So stoic!

Are you old enough to be going after a teacher? (^・_・^)
Unrequited and taboo love is romantic
But only in stories!

[spes_phthisica]

it's that obvious huh
but really deep down he's very sweet (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)

and well (＃⌒∇⌒＃)ゞ I'm kind of 19 and 21 at the same time it's confusing
so I should be old enough right

Private - Text

[hearmyfeels]

Those types usually are (=｀ω’=)

Over 18 is the point!
So let's see. You could go with the old standbys of writing out a poem for him if you aren't confident in your own skills. But really most things work best when said from the heart.

I'd offer to look over the letter but such things are often very private.

you just need to get through the layers of sheer STUBBORNNESS first
(/¯◡ ‿ ◡)/¯ ~ ┻━┻

oh and if it's not too embarrassing, could you please do that?
(#／。＼#) I really don't want it to sound weird or anything

Private - Text

[hearmyfeels]

Of course I can ヽ (=^・ω・^=)ノ

;33 Just send it my way. Text or email or here if you want!

[spes_phthisica]

okay I managed to write something（・□・；）
I've translated it from Japanese so you can read it
it sounds a bit different in English I think but it's the best I could do

[He'll attach this to the message.]

I'm sorry it's kind of weird
I lost my memory because of the Phoenix-thingie and it's all really complicated and dumb
(－‸ლ)

Private - Text

[hearmyfeels]

Ohh...it is quite complicated isn't it? You two were involved before?

:c

It reads quite nicely though. Not outright stating but making your feelings clear enough that he can't misunderstand. Nicely done!

[spes_phthisica]

（−＿−；）i don't know
i just know we're supposed to have known each other since i was nine
and that he cares for me a lot

⊂((・▽・))⊃ thank you for being so helpful
i think i will buy him a bouquet of camellias
red for love and white for waiting（//･_･//)
and leave it in his room so he'll find it in the evening

Private - Text

[hearmyfeels]

Ahhh that's so sweet. I can't believe you have such a history!

That would be perfect. (=^ω^=)
It could spur him to action!

What are you like some sort of love guru?

text

[hearmyfeels]

I wouldn't say a love guru. I'm just passionate.

Video

[monkeythief]

Passionate about romance? Yet you don't have a Valentine?

text

[hearmyfeels]

Passion for romance does not mean I am good at it first hand! Seeing things from an outside perspective often helps. Don't you think? Get a sharper idea of what's going on, see the things you're too close to see.

So really I can't tell if anyone is interested in ME. It's so difficult to see furst hand.

Video

[monkeythief]

I..guess I can kind of see your point. But it still does seem a little weird. Like you'd expect someone good at this romancey sort of stuff to have a lot of practice.

Video

[hearmyfeels]

I suppose. But the basics of romance are usually pretty easy. Getting the relationship started is usually the hardest part for people. But it's really easy. You just have to put yourself out there and ask. Accept a no but hope for a yes.

Just being confident enough to risk rejection is the part most people need to work on.

Video

[monkeythief]

So basically you have to be brave and confident? That's at least what it sounds like to me.

Have you ever been in a relationship, just out of curiosity?

text

[hearmyfeels]

Basically. I mean, you could technically be one or the other but they aren't mutually exclusive.

And no, I have not.

Video

[monkeythief]

Why? Have never had those kind of feelings for someone that you knew?

Text

[hearmyfeels]

I suppose so!

Video

[monkeythief]

So you've never been in a relationship, you've never put yourself out there and confessed to someone...yet, you are telling others how to do it? Does that not seem weird to you?

text

[hearmyfeels]

I don't tell them how to do it. I suggest things! And only one person has taken me up on it and it's just a matter of courage rather than anything I can really tell them.

I'm not so dumb as to think I have all the answers, I just enjoy helping people.

[monkeythief]

No need to be so purrsnickety about him pointing out the faults. Valentine's Day is this Caturday. He just thinks she should tempurr her advice. No need to give a guy some impurrfect advice only for it to blow up in their face. It was would be a huge Catastrophe. It would be pawful. ]

I guess there's nothing wrong with that. And you are really the only person I've seen offering this sort of advice, so maybe its a service that is needed.

Text

[hearmyfeels]

[She never gives impurrfect advice. Nefur.

Or at least she has the best intentions]

I'm just trying to help. Someone has to I think. Or we wouldn't have advice columns in every paper.

[monkeythief]

Yeah, I guess. It's kind of surprising the school paper doesn't have one. You know, where other students could write in for stuff like that. Or e-mail in.

[hearmyfeels]

They could probably start one but it'd be pretty limited. Not everyone needs advice

[loveswaffles]

A romantic extraordinaire.

[hearmyfeels]

I go by many names ;33

Well at least I go by a screenname elsewhere. But I like to think I can help.

Re: video;

[loveswaffles]

So what exactly... do you do?

text

[hearmyfeels]

I give advice when it's asked for! You know, what to say or do if they're shy or just listening if they need to talk about it.

[loveswaffles]

Couldn't you just say that you give advice?

[hearmyfeels]

I did! I just elaborated

[loveswaffles]

And people actually come to you?

[hearmyfeels]

Occasionally. I'm still quite new at this you know

[loveswaffles]

Right, well. Good luck with that.
