i appreciate everybody's advice here, but see, i cant force confidence. if i do i just become arrogant which makes me say stupid things. today i was sitting in front of the girl, and i was talking to her. i was awkward and embarassing. she still smiles at me a lot. i like her so much it hurts, and i dont know what to do. i mean, im trying to use everybodys advice..

Wrong
You woud be right if you were writing it to your website, or your blog or your whatever.
you have an individual account here on ATA, but any matter you submit becomes the property of the owner. this is because its intended for public viewing and fals under the copyright of hte web site.
I found all ths out the hard way, paying a copyriht attorney for some work on a web site I own that was ripped off and I had to put shit into court to protect my property.
this is how it was explained to me by the attorney. Of course it was my own shit and it was public comain but original art and thougths are copyright of me as it was on my website, you give up those rights when you submit it to someone elses site. in the end I won it cost me about 2 grand to fight, I won about 200 dollars and they had to stop using my material as thier own. Now I prefer to not deal in original web pages and simply sell porn and sex toys through industry contacts and they can worry about copyright bullshit, i dont have the money to fight it
I live in the US too :P I will agree though that we could publish it in china, alot of fakes in china so copyrights nota problem for the industry there.
an interesting note too, as i live in utah Im only legal because the servers that host my site are in california, if thy were in utah Id be shut down and arrested and fined. -
It's off the topic of the thread, grvtykllr, and perhaps should be a new one; but I'm not in the US and US copyright law does not apply to me (whatever US law itself might say, it has no authority over me when I am not in US territory and have no seizable assets there). If I publish a book here I am legally entitled to include my posts without permission from the site owner, though the site owner may be able to prevent their importation into the US. If the site owner publishes my posts in a book without my permission, he may be able to publish in the US, but I can prevent their importation here. The issue of the rest of the world is the interesting one.In fact, US copyright law is now considerably out of step with world copyright conventions to which the US subscribes, and its an interesting point how long that can continue.

In reply to: but see, i cant force confidence. if i do i just become arrogant which makes me say stupid things Hi mate, I can understand your position. You're trying to be confident etc but it's difficult.I'm not saying that you should force confidence. I want you to be comfortable with yourself and who you are, from there your confidence will grow and be a genuine part of you.Usually we're not confident because we're either unsure of who we are, or aren't comfortable with who we are etc. This can sometimes be because other people act a different way (ie: 'cool') and we don't feel that we fit in with what some people call 'normal'.What I'm saying is that there's no 'normal'. You need to relax and be yourself, at the same time being comfortable and confident in yourself. You're just a human being like the next guy.You're fine just the way you are, so show her who you are, tell her how you feel. If she doesn't come around, (seems unlikely) then you move on and find someone who you're more compatible with.You need to be true to yourself, and be happy with who you are, and you have no reason not to be! Just let her know how you feel and ride the wave, go with the flow!Cheers and good luck mate.SR
