"Mickey ,   Man, that;s a bummer. I wish I had some advice for you, All I can really say cliched and trite, It sounds like you have done quite a bit for him already, which is awesome. I don't think there is anything you can do to get rid of…"

How to proceed?

I wrote a letter to an old friend. Haven't takled to him in at least two years. He lives less than a mile away. It was very general and unassuming, He has yet to answer. A mutual friend saw him a few months ago and it was all monosyllabic answers. It seems we have changed and he hasn't. I guess the question is do I just say the Hell with it and call it a day or what should I do? Thanks in advance.See More

"RD, I beg to differ. People listen to music, just not like they have in the past. At least it seems that way to me, I just joined the other day and am in the process of getting the hang of it, fear not you shall hear from me!"

Advice on whether to stop talking to a girl

I have liked the girl for a long time. Years. I'm 18 now, and for most of the time I know her, I mainly just talked to her. She doesn't live nearby. Tonight, I finally told her of my feelings for her over the phone. I shouldn't have waited this long but I did. She didn't return them. As politely as she could she told me that she wasn't especially attracted to me, and that my obvious attraction to her had made talking to me and being friends with me a little awkward at times. It was a relief to…See More
