Wait! Until I come back to your side, we'll forget the tears we cried.
So I went to get a haircut and I read this article in GQ called "The Best Advice I Ever Got" and it had a bunch of stories from different guys relating the best advice they ever got (duh!) and one of them really hit me.
The guys story goes something like this: He was dating this girl and she moved 300 miles away from him. Well he heard through the grapevine that she was dating another guy at the same time and he "had no other choice but to go nuclear" about the whole thing. He devised a scheme to win her heart only for him, he was gonna buy two-dozen roses for her and even if the other guy got her flowers he surely would only get a dozen and thus seem cheap compaired to his 2 dozen.
The night before the flowers were to be delieved he went to the bar and ended up telling this story to a burnt out surfer. After the story was told he asked the surfer if he thinks his plan will work and the surfer respond something like this, "It doesn't matter, if she likes you she will love the flowers and be glad you sent her something. If she doesn't like you the gift will freak her out and you will end up looking bad in her eyes, maybe even worse than before. The point is, it doesn't matter what you do she either loves you or she doesn't."
Really some great advice that almost no one follows, love doesn't need to be worked on (at least in the beginning) it should just work.
