That sounds like hell, make sure you have plenty of tissue boxes. Rest up and feel better soon

Thanks anon, I will.

Yea that happens when I get migraines, I have to lie down with all the lights off for a while until it passes. I'm sorry that you're experiencing that, stay hydrated and maybe try an ice pack for the back of your neck. That helps sometimes with my headaches

I’ll definitely try that, I think I’m either sick or just having a HIGE pollen allergy rn. My throat sore and my nose is stuffed up and running. So that’s fun!

Pt3 i just wanna know what to say without having that awkward silence i just feel like im not good enough im too boring and dull i feel like he’d be better off with someone who had something intresting to say how do i become intresting?-MJ

Hey love,

Honestly, I think the best way to keep your crush or anyone in your company entertained and engaged is to keep talking. Don’t try to just talk about things that you think they might be interested in. Ask them questions. Get to know them. If they said something that interests you, talk more about it or if you don’t know much about it, ask them to tell you more about it. I don’t think it’s interesting when you’re talking about the same things that everyone else is talking about. It’s over talked about and chances are it’s pretty boring. Be you. Be spontaneous. Be adventurous.

If your crush doesn’t like you for you, then what’s the point of winning his affection? Also if you’re the only one initiating the conversations then I think there’s something wrong there. A conversation can only happen if both parties are engaged and if both parties continue it. Otherwise it’s like talking to a wall. You’re bound to run out of things to say with no response.

A few topics you can possibly talk about

A new movie that’s coming out or already came out. There’s a lot of good movies coming into the theatres and a lot of good ones that already came out. You can ask if there’s any movie that he wants to see or maybe bring up a movie that you want to see and maybe he’ll have something to say about it. Typically this is the easiest way to start a convo for mer. “I really want to see the new Power Rangers movie!” “Oh really? I want to see the one Morgan Freeman’s in. It looks awesome!”

The event that you’re at. Ask if he’s having fun or what his thoughts are about the event.

Ask about what he’s doing. You can talk about each other’s weekends, schools, etc. “How was your spring break?” “What did you do?” “Any fun plans for the summer?”

Don’t be afraid of silence either! Not all silences are bad! Ask anyone in a relationship. You’re going to run out of things to talk about or there’s nothing to talk about. You can enjoy each other’s company without talking. Either way, it’s all about how engaged you both are in each other. If he’s not interested in talking, you can bring up anything and it just won’t make a difference, you know? Just be yourself and charm him with that.

Always by your side,

Kelly
