Thank you to PDiane for your character and question. Amazing…I posted this about a day ago and I’m already getting questions. Just like old times :-D. Anyway, thanks!

Dear SiriousB1,

I have absolutely fallen for this guy. I am doing everything I can to get his attention; I am crushing on him left, right and center. I am making it quite clear that I love him, and yet he ignores my advances! Why? Am I doing something wrong? I am not ugly, so I know that’s not the problem – please help me! I am very frustrated.

Sincerely,
A Lovelorn Shield Maiden


Dear Shield Maiden,

The problem of love is a very frequent topic, isn’t it? Yes, well…moving on. I can think of two reasons why he continuously ignores you: 1) He already has a girl that you do not know about. This is the easiest explanation, but not always the correct one. If he doesn’t have a girl, and still ignores you, then he just isn’t interested or looking. 2) He dislikes forward girls. If the latter is the case, then I suggest backing off from your “crushing on him left, right and center.” Let him breathe a little! Try should playing “hard-to-get” instead of “LOOK AT ME AND MY BEAUTIFUL BODY!!!” And, on the issue of assuming you are beautiful, are you so sure? That could be ego talking. Take a poll or skip right to plastic surgery…just make sure you don’t come out looking like Michael Jackson! Another idea: You say that you are a shield maiden. Perhaps it is because of your tomboy-ish actions that make him back down. Not all guys like loud, outspoken girls. Try letting him be dominant for a while and see his reaction. If all of the above fails, then assume that my first assumption was correct and he already has a girl.

Sincerely,
SiriousB1
