I'm in the doghouse for no reason at all with the girl I really like. She just stopped talking to me after 6th period. I dont know what I did and I cant fix anything if she isnt talking to me. What should I do??
Okay, calm down. Breathe. In and out. Okay, calm now? Good. She probably is just really distracted with a big assignment. Maybe she heard a stupid rumor about you? Or maybe.....what was the last thing you said too her?
Okay. Breathed in, breathed out; still panicking, but thanks! I didnt say anything to her, at least nothing to upset her. This morning I saw her in the hall and she completely walked passed me. Clearly ive done something but she wont tell me cuz she isnt talking to me
Hmm......hey, is there a dance or some event coming up where you live?
Don't freak out. Maybe you should leave her a note asking her if there's something on her mind that she wants to talk about or anything that is bothering her. A rumor is a good assumption, so don't rule that out yet. Chances are, someone could have told her something or she could just need space. Give it a little time and ask around. One of her friends could know what's up. Most importantly: be cool about it. Panic rises suspicion.
Has anyone ever told you that you should be a therapist? Cuz you give awesome advice. Thank you, I will take all of this into consideration
I'm not sure. I havent really heard anything. Did you hear something?
No, it's just that maybe if there's a a dance or something coming up and you haven't asked her to it, she could be miffed.
Or if a dance or something is coming up you could ask her to it and if she says no, then you could always ask why....
Usually when a girl is upset about something directly related to you, even though she's not talking to you she wants you to notice this change. Now don't think straight away that this will solve the problem but it definitely helps that you care about this. Second, just cause she isn't talking to you doesn't mean she's unreachable. Try to talk to her in school privately, if she doesn't let anything on ask her friends (discreetly). If that doesn't work send her a text/note/whatever saying that you don't know what's going on but whether it's because of you or not you are there if she needs to talk.
By this point the rest will be up to her, really.
Being a girl, I can tell you what to do. First off, if you don't know why she's mad at you, that will only make things worse. Girls usually assume you know. Also, when thinking about what it could be, don't eliminate things that you think won't upset her. Something that wouldn't upset you, might still upset her. If you figure out what it is that's upset her, apologize, and be ready to explain yourself.
I hate to sound like a dooshbag and this may be tmi, but it seriously could be that time of the month. You never know, it's the biggest mistake all men make to assume that it's our fault, when it very well may not be. Best advice, relax and wait for her to talk to you. And Yes this will be a very hard task
As a girl, I agree. Once, during my "time of month", I was irritated with these guys at my Spanish table (which I usually am), and all of a sudden, they were like "Your MEAN today!" I stopped talking before they put two and two together, cuz guys make fun of girls even though it isn't our fault. My point is, that she might be on her period, and that could be the whole problem.
