... and Maeve the dunderhead goes on to make yet another idiotic post, but replies would be appreciated.

Lets just say that I'm not in the best of situations. I like girls, and I go to an all girls school. Two girls play a role in my story. I'll call one Leah and the other Rosie.

Anyways. I have had a crush on Leah all year. I finally wrote her a letter telling her how I felt, but she very nicely rejected me. She's gay, but just not into me. Oh, oh well. After three weeks of sadness and annoyance at myself for being an idiot, I notice Rosie differently. I heard her sing. That's sort of my main 'turn on' for a person, to be honest. Musical ability. But anyways. She knows that I liked her friend Leah. After Leah rejected me, I sort of dug myself into the lesbian community. A lot of girls know what I am, although I have only come out to two. So this community has heard all about this, read my letter, etc. I want to tell Rosie how I feel (on Valentines day, because I'm a romantic sod). Is this too soon? I don't want to look fake by crushing on somebody all year and then randomly getting over it and talking to Rosie. That's not what happened AT ALL, but I don't want it to look like that.

If I did tell Rosie, I would probably sing. Just because I'm a romantic sod. I'd sing For Baby by John Denver.

WHAT SHOULD I DO???

There's no real time frame of "getting over" someone.
Some people take a while, others fairly quickly.
If you like someone, why care if other people think you got over someone too quickly.
If you think you can say "I'm past her and I'am ready to move on." Then just do it.

Thank you, Jason. I hate to bump threads, but does anybody else have advice? Please? I'll give you some pastries! I baked gingerbread men today!

On one hand, I wonder how long it has been since your last confession. If it was over a month ago, no problem.
Under two weeks, wait a bit longer, maybe another 2 weeks.

Then here this comes, how well do you know her? If you don't know her too well, get to before confessing. You may find you either really do like her, or you'll find yourself thinking you were wrong in your feelings and this girl does nothing for you.

My advice would typically be go for it, screw other people. But the community knows, which creeps me out that they're so heavily involved in knowing that. You could either come off as seeing Rosie as a crush-break rebound. The other girls may not take you too seriously if they assume you've jumped straight from one girl to the next, and this could possibly hurt your chances of them really seeing you as you. Rosie herself may be a bit, oh hmm you really were into her but she said no and so here you are a short while later confessing to me?

This won't sound at all like I intend to have it sound but, why are you seeing Rosie differently? What is different about this Rosie that you didn't see before? If she couldn't sing, would you have nothing to feel for her? Is singing the only thing pulling you into her? Are you positive that you're not looking for Leah, in her friend?

Well... Rosie was out on medical leave from the first of October until right after Christmas. I thought she was nice in September, but didnt know her. I told Leah right before Christmas that I liked her.
