I was just talking to a girl from work that I like tonight... and I need an outside opinion on the situation I'm in. She's 19 and I'm 22. I like her, but I'm not sure if she really likes me. We flirt at work all the time, but she parties a lot so I'm not sure if its just how she is. Lately though shes been calling me after work and we've been talking late into the night about random stuff. Heres the situation. She posts this on her Facebook a little while before she calls me tonight, I don't see it until during the actual call: i wish he could see how much i really liked him.... but it doesn't even matter because i will never be good enough... Now I might have made an error by doing this, but I brought it up, saying what was up with her status, and how she shouldn't be so down on herself all the time. I didn't actually bring up the guy thing, but I implied it. She then tries to change the subject, and suddenly "has to go" but tells me to text/call her tomorrow. Any ideas on what all this means?

Its okay. Youve got ALL the best talent of Texas at your disposal and have only THREE championships in your entire history to show for it. +1 satisfaction

Disagree. People kept telling me (neutral fans) that NU would romp in this game b/c texas sucks. I tried to argue that Texas was easily the best two-loss team and better than most if not all the 1-loss teams. they laid and egg (as teams tend to do once or twice a season) and lost to UCLA b/c they were thinking about OU and they lost to OU because the Sooners were just better. All the two losses in a row did was piss them off UT's players and maybe lull some of the Nebraska players into thinking they weren't as good. I didnt say Texas was a bad team. Very talented players, good coaches, etc. Just compared to the teams of the last say 7-8 years under Young and McCoy this team isnt as good. In a year or two I think Texas gets to the NCG again under Gilbert.

We lossed to a sub-par Texas team, if there was any year where we could do it, any year when we could FINALLY beat Texas, it was this one. And yet we still lose. Texas did what it had to, but we only beat ourselves.

Just an interesting article that the Nebraska Cornhusker's page on Facebook posted. HERE is the actual link.

When we don't make mistakes, such as dropped passes, or penalties, or fumbles, or interceptions, our offense is basically unstoppable. Hes doing a pretty good job, just the players need to stop making small errors and we are fine.

Well I'm gonna get really tired of either a Texas or a Oklahoma (or a Boise State) team getting to the championship every year after we leave. I'm sorry but a one or even two loss SEC or Big 10 team deserves to be in the championship before a no loss Big 12 team. I mean look at the Big 10 and SEC. They have GOOD teams. You will most likely not get through a season without at least ONE loss. Then look at the Big 12 next year. They've got Texas and Oklahoma, maybe Texas aTm every few years. The BCS is supposed to put the two best teams against each other at the end of the year, but thats not gonna happen if strength of schedule isn't taken into account. I honestly think that there should be some sort of playoff system in place. That way the actual two best teams will play for the championship.

I.e. Texas and Oklahoma.

Illinois is playing pretty well. I'm actually surprised at Missouri, defense isn't really playing well and their offense has been sputtering so far. This is good news for us! Then again maybe its just that I haven't watched any Big 10 teams really. Its 13-3 Illinois at the half.

Nebraska plays Iowa every year the day after Thanksgiving, like they did Colorado. Nebraska also plays Penn State every year. Just saw this on the news. The two yet to be named divisions are as follows. I think they are pretty well balanced, and also preserve most of the rivalries, which is what the Big 10 was trying to do. Thoughts? DIVISION 1 Michigan Nebraska Iowa Michigan State Minnesota Northwestern DIVISION 2 Ohio State Penn State Wisconsin Illinois Purdue Indiana

Heres the actual link.

If she didn't have a boyfriend it would be different, but she does.

After thinking about this a lot, I'm just gonna let her go and be her friend. If something is meant to happen it will happen in time. I'm gonna stop beating myself up over her and move on. It's still gonna take a little to get used to this new mindset, but in the long run I think it will be better for both of us. I am not gonna remain shackled to her when there are tons of other great girls out there. And like I said, who knows what the future holds.

Jeez-okay, let's see if this get the approval of the "PC police". She's known you for a long enough time, she's not currently with anyone right now(granted-total rebound situation, but that's her issue to deal with, not yours), she knows that you were previously interested in her and she headed right for you. If you don't jump on(literlly) this opportunity, someone else will(literally). This is your shot, and it's your to blow or take advantage of(literally, or not so much so). First off I'd like to say thank you for everyones input. She IS seeing someone right now. Thats the problem. I don't know what to do. First time I've ever been in this situation and I've been asking a bunch of people what they think. I know that ultimately it is my decision, but I've talked with my buddies and a few girls that I am just friends with and get their input on the situation, as well as HUSKERBOARD lol. At the moment its kinda 50/50 among my friends whether shes put me in the friend zone or trying to find a way out of her current relationship. The fact that I am the only ones shes told means that she obviously trusts me, and that she is telling me because she thinks she can do so without any problems (because I'm "just a friend") or that she's giving me a way in.

Thanks for the advice everyone. Glad to know that I've got the Huskerboard supporting me lol. Anyways, I am not "the guy" who is gonna try and ruin her relationship. I've pretty much gotten over her. Heck I hadn't seen her for over 4 months. The reason why we even hung out the other day is shes buying my car. Thats it, and all of the recent texts I have sent her are related to the car. Ever since she told me that shes dating this guy I have not once asked to hang out with her. We do text about other random stuff, like whether a movie is good, or a new song we heard, etc. All I expected to do the other day was head over, let her test drive it, and then leave. I didn't expect a full hour of talking after that. We were just catching up and I asked her whether she was hanging with her bf soon and if I should leave, and she tells me that she doesn't want to because they are going to have a fight, and then she tells me about whats going on. Another thing I am trying to figure out is that when I went to leave SHE hugged me, again not expecting it. And it was way longer then it should have been if it was just a friendly hug. We went out a few times, took her to some movies, hung at her place a few times, made out once. She was not dating her current bf at the time we were doing all that. Most of our relationship though has been through texting and phone calls.

Girl I like, we've been friends for almost a year, we went out a few times but at the moment she has a boyfriend who she is having problems with. I've fooled around with other girls but I always end up going back to thinking about her. There's just some sort of connection, something I feel when I am with her or think about her that I don't feel around any other girl I've known or dated. Ever. Even though she's seeing this guy, and I've seen a couple girls in the time between, there is a friendship, emotional connection, or whatever you wanna call it between us, that is still there. Ok so apparently just yesterday her boyfriend went through her phone and looked at her messages, which she feels angry about. Long story short he's jealous I guess, and has a lot of trust issues and what not. Anyways they've been fighting. She told me about the phone thing today when we were hanging out, I'm not sure if I am in the friend zone, seeing as how she told me this. I HOPE NOT! She knew once at least that I liked her. I'm at a loss of what to do now. How do I make it known that I still have feelings for her but not cause our friendship to end? I honestly don't think their relationship will last but its not like I'm gonna wait it out, I'm gonna see other girls, but I also don't wanna be "just a friend" if and when they do break up. Ya know?

Just wondering, the big conferences are... ACC SEC Big 12 Big 10 Big East Pac-10 Cant think of anymore off the top of my head. Thats 3 with "Big" in their names. Big 10 could become the Northeastern Conference (not sure if there is one already) Big 12 could become the Central State Conference, just throwing out ideas lol. If they do insist on using numbers, make sure another conference doesn't share the first part of you name... the Pac-10(12) can add any number of teams.

Why not change the Big 12 to the Big 10 and the Big 10 to the Big 12 to keep in line with the number of teams? Brand names aside, its not like people wont know who is who. Just be weird to have a conference with 10/12 teams called the Big 12/10. They wont, but just saying if the Pac-10 is doing it...
