I am sooo confused, like so confused beyond my mind and I don't know what to do! I was looking through my leaving cards and I saw a note from a really good friend of mine, it said..."Don't go I love you with all my heart xxxxx (ect)" Then from one from his mates on another card I got "It is a shame your going cos he has finally realised he loves you". I don't know what to do. I mean there is no one I can talk to as My new mates won't understand and I can not talk to them about this, My old mates will talk to him and if he did not really mean it he will get freaked out and the only other person other then that is Shawn and "Hey babe, umm can you help me talk about this guy who says he loves me but i'm confused" won't go down all that well, even though I know Shawn is amazing and probably would I still don't want to but that in our relationship. Plus my mate knew I was going out with Shawn! I am still in contact with this friend and I don't know if I should talk to him about it as I don't really do the whole "I love you" speech well, after doing that nonsense twice with Shawn I really don't want to have to do it again. I think that tradition is important, I think that a male should ask the female out and if or when it comes to marriage the male again should ask the female. Even though Laz thinks that tradition is a load of bull, to me tradition keeps my heart hoping and my dreams not to wild.
