Prom

I've been asked to prom by Paul. No, not CC's Paul. (There must be something in the name.) As such, I am nothing but estatic to go with him! Seriously, I get a butterfly-in-my-stomach sort of feeling everytime I think about it. (Okay, call me cheesy, it's okay) Anyway, so then I start to think it through. Because of course, I am Red Tulip and over think anything and everything.

So I start thinking....

I have come to three possible reasons why Paul has asked me:

• Paul is my friend, and wanted to go to prom with a friend.

Why this is likely.... Paul is sweet, charming, charismatic, and... very flirtacious. Girls can't help but atleast think about liking him. Paul however, probably thinks nothing of it. He's easy going most of the time.

• Paul genuinely likes me, and wanted to go to prom because this is his "way of showing it." Because as previously stated on this blog... you just don't talk to boys about your feelings. Basically, this has never even been a subject topic for us.

Why this is unlikely... Look at the description above under my first conclusion. Need I say more? I'll expound... It's like he sends mixed signals. (What a shocker! Close the open mouth please)

• Paul thinks, okay maybe even knows, that I sort of, kind of, okay probably like him. I'm so confused, I don't even know myself. Anyway, so he asked out of pity or just to be nice.

Why this is extremely likely... I didn't think I was the type of girl to show a guy that I liked him, not until I had atleast a hint to what he was thinking. But, apparently a lot of people say they can see it. CRAP. That goes against my personal code or what not. I'm really leaning towards this option, not because I'm pessimistic, but realistic. I mean honestly....

Anyway, those are my conclusions. I'm going to pretend like I didn't think this through at all, and have a good time regardless. Like I said... butterfly feeling, I swear!
