What crazy, silly thing did you do to someone that you "liked"?

Asked by Unbroken (10746points) May 4th, 2013

Or that was done to you. Did it work, did it push the person away? Did you ever admit to anyone later?

Have you laughed about it yet? Can we laugh about it?

I forgot to start this off.

I once poured juice on purpose all over this guys head in school.

I also played chicken with this guy. Punching each others arms til they were black and blue. I would also physically lift him when he stood on my feet a few inches off the floor. I had to be smarter and funnier and crueler then him.

We did have a little trystlike thing going on. It was a first exploration of the opposite sex. Obviously it wasn’t very mature and didn’t last long.

Yes I laughed. It still makes me smile in a how silly and misguided were you. Glad I am no longer the blatent fool I was.

Mine is perhaps a bit nerdy, but here goes…I wrote him an animated computer program, teasing him about a funny story he had told me…and yes, he liked it. I don’t know if he realized I did it because I liked him, though.

I poured cornflakes in my son’s bed, between the sheets. But he deserved it.

I secretly followed her everywhere, called her phone and hung up all the time, and sent her disturbing “love” letters fashioned from cut up newspaper and magazine clippings.

i have been asked to show some restraint . . .

So she felt she had no choice but to marry you, right @Blondesjon? :)

When my cousin got married, he trusted me with the car keys ( his dad parked it three blocks from the church because his best man was a prankster ). Little did he know. . . I loaded a pound of rice in his and his wife Kathy’s luggage. Oh I cut the top off a box of rice and put it leaning inside the glove compartment, where all the maps and reservation confirmation numbers were. That was forty five years ago I still chuckle.

Okay, this is embarrassing. When I was in 6th or 7th grade, my friends and I formed a ‘secret’ group to send anonymous notes to all the boys we had crushes on. We took turns writing the words in each note, so as to muddy the handwriting analysis we were sure the boys would undertake. The notes were written in pink and purple gel pens which were a new thing at the time and we signed them “The Pink and Purple People”, hahaha. We had a friend outside the group deliver the notes, never guessing that she’d reveal our identities – which she did immediately, of course!

Thinking back, the boys were truly lovely about it. They didn’t let on that they knew who we were for quite some time, and continued to receive the on-going notes graciously. When it finally came out that they’d known all along, we invited them all over to one girl’s house for a group hang-out/movie day. Two of the guys didn’t come, but the rest of us had fun. No romances came of it, but we were all still friends afterward.

Interestingly, I received a ‘secret admirer’ letter years later when I was in high school. It was very flowery and flattering, but I never did learn the identity of the sender. I still wonder about it sometimes.

A few years ago, I was doing some work research about online training capabilities of Second Life, a virtual world. One day, I logged in to the site and landed on an unfamiliar page. There was another member there, and we struck up a conversation. This continued for a couple of weeks. On the third week, he sent me a link to a video he made. Here it is.

Did it work? Yes. From the minute I viewed it, I knew that he had my heart. We were engaged a year later.

@Pied_Pfeffer I don’t know that you should tell him this but… the hiding the accent thing? It didn’t work. Very sweet though. What a lovely guy.
