Long post.. sorry.
Is there a guy who you either were with or wanted to be with, and you had the opportunity to tell him how you felt, but you didn't? So now he's your "what if" guy? As in, "what if I told him how much I liked him? Where would we be now?"
Obviously, I have a what if guy. We went to high school all four years together and I never really noticed him til our senior year. Well, I always knew exactly who he was because we have the same last name.. no chances of us being too closely related; he's white. Anyway, I always thought he was kinda cute, in a nerdy, geeky, totally adorable way. He played bass guitar in our school's jazz band, and being a cellist, we both had an appreciation for the performing arts. The one and I only time I saw him perform, I was amazed.
Fast-forward to the second semester of our senior year. I had to take a computer lit class to graduate, so in order to fix it into my schedule, I had to have some of my classes moved around, and that included switching to a new English class and he happened to be in it. We sat on total opposite ends of the classroom. I sat right by the door in the front and he was in the back by the windows, but we always gave each other some sort of acknowledgement whenever the other one entered the class. Sometimes when I'd look up at him, he'd be looking at me and then look away.
At my school, the guys had it easy. It was 5 girls for every 1 guy. So, before prom, it was hard to find a date. I had to go out with one of my-coworkers who I barely knew... the night went great obviously because I haven't spoken to him since ... he was a waste of my time and my money.
Before that, I wanted to ask him my what if guy, but I was afraid how he'd react. I don't know for sure if he liked me too, but I could feel... something, you know? I don't even remember if he had a date that night, but I always wonder if I had asked him and if he said yes, where we'd be now?
