Kiss Her!

001_kissher.jpg

Spotted this one walking down a road in central London. It was especially poignant because I’ve kind of been caught in limbo recently. A girl I know, but you see it’s complicated, things could happen if I had either the balls or stupidity depending on what way you look at it, but the consequences seem to have stopped me from making myself known. The strange thing is I am always urging people to do what they feel is ‘right’. I guess it’s always easier to give advice than take it?

And I was wondering what you lot think…

What do you reckon… who wrote it? Man or a woman? My leaning now is towards a woman having written it, but I have no idea why. Maybe its because I’m secretly hoping it was her or maybe it’s something to do with the handwriting?

Any graphologists in the house?

  1. Wow. Nice picture. Good Zen moment. Carpe diem!

  2. It matters not the gender of the author…the advise is sound. Consider it divine intervention if you will. You know what you need to do; do it. And best of luck to you. Sometimes the most complicated of situations are the most enjoyable.

  3. As a man presently swimming in a veeeery complicated situation because I kissed her… kiss her you fool!

    Life is complicated. Love is too rewarding to overlook because you think life should be safe.

  4. life is complicated and love is rewarding..i agree with you wayne…but now why is it that i’m over-complicating my love….if i don’t stop what im doing..we could be heading to splits-ville :(

  5. The Beatles, Hey Jude

    Hey, Jude, don’t be afraid
    You were made to go out and get her
    The minute you let her under your skin
    Then you begin to make it better.

    And any time you feel the pain, hey, Jude, refrain
    Don’t carry the world upon your shoulders
    Well don’t you know that its a fool who plays it cool
    By making his world a little colder

  6. I can totally relate, and i agree with it, ….. doesn’t matter if it was written from a guy or a girl, take it as if it was written from ‘god’ , ‘the universe’, a sign…

    Not only that but *I* happened “randomly” to click on this blog out of …all of them, randomly, and *I* am taking it as an act of god and ….. well i can relate.. i know what to do.. i tell others to do it -

    I’ve finally discovered its just subconscous conditioning, ‘automatic’ fear response, fear of…..

    myself?…. everything i see is a perfect mirror.. i see my desires…. “whats inside, is outside, whats outside, is inside”

    I need to do what the sign says, act in spite of anxiety/fear/etc… nothing to loose, kiss her and , i’ll pay you money if she doesn’t..want it (whoever, if any, doesn’t matter… )

    – no fear –

  7. Ah, it takes me back. I’m 16 and that hot young man from the icecream shop on the corner asks me for my number. Such a crush I had! but I was with my sister, so I said no. The next day I go back with my number written on a slip of paper, but the day before turned out to be his last day. Never saw him again.
    Carp diem, indeed.

    Workdemon - June 1, 2007 at 1:08 am
  8. Male. Easy going. He doesn’t follow the rules and tends to give up too easy. He doesn’t belive himself though (last chance) is written too lightly. He’s afraid of her.

    So some advice for him or you. JUST DO IT. SHUT UP. NO THINKING. JUST DO IT.

  11. i say you should just do it. better to know the response, be it positive or negative…than not doing anything and having to regret on what you should have done…

    good luck!

  12. Kiss Her!

    A thought-provoking picture.

  13. Doesn’t matter who wrote it, but it does look like girl writing to me.

    fullerenedream - June 1, 2007 at 2:06 am
  14. sanity, you’re right…it can be a power struggle, but i think your picture is the perfect way of averting it..just enjoying each other and being spontaneous, not nit-picky…acting like everyday is the first day.

    honestly, i’m loving the picture! good find :)

    thatdancinggirl - June 1, 2007 at 2:07 am
  15. We could all die at any moment - any one of us. That’s not morbid, just the truth. My neighbor across the street died yesterday. She had no idea it would happen…none of us know when we may take our last breath. Whatever the meaning, whether written by male or female, excellent advice!

    Marsha J. O'Brien - June 1, 2007 at 2:36 am
  16. What do you maybe its handwritten? It would have to be handwritten look at the “E” and “O”s It would also be far to hard to cut a stencil that thin if thats what you meant.

  17. lol…how often do we see these kinda stuff..

    anyway, prolly written by a lady who’s desperate for a kiss ;p

    gr4ve - June 1, 2007 at 3:22 am
  18. Heh. I went through the same shy(ish) guy quandry and got some good advice from a girl - “Kiss her the next time you see her…and remember that a lot of alcohol helps.”

    Happily married for 7 years and going. :-)

  22. I can tell you from personal experience. The risk is worth it. Like they say, “you’ll never know until you try”.

  23. Wow, nice picture and message. Definitely looks like a girl wrote it.

    xiongmao03 - June 1, 2007 at 5:14 am
  24. I vote woman. In fact, it may not have been for any purpose other than to get attention.

    I gotta say, I feel the same way you do…a lot actually…about shyness and such. I suck first moves.

  25. Live like you’ll die tomorrow, love like you’ll never love again, die like you’ve lived life for all it were worth.

  26. Just take the leap and kiss her. Love isn’t complicated, we humans only make it seem complicated…

    wovensunshine - June 1, 2007 at 5:32 am
  27. The writing is in chalk !!
    Think, who uses chalk?
    What is the proximity of the writing to a school?
    Can you walk to the school from the location?
    The other items on the side suggest a poster that is our of date.
    May 25, 2007 is not a Tuesday its a Friday.

    Your guess is as good as mine….

    jgfestin - June 1, 2007 at 5:32 am
  28. Of course it’s written by a women…probably THE woman. The one who wants to be kissed…or her best friend stepping in to help give him a push… to taking action!

    Heather - June 1, 2007 at 5:32 am
  29. It’s always complicated, isn’t it? Regarding the message, I’d say it was a guy. We tend to be the most hopeless of romantics (which is probably why I think it’s good advice).

    kyknoord - June 1, 2007 at 5:36 am
  30. It was written by an old man … who didn’t.
    You will alway regret the things not done.

    H. W. McDaniel - June 1, 2007 at 5:45 am
  31. Digg this. It’s pretty.

  32. Take the leap of faith - it is often the best thing you will ever do. Best to live life without regret. I personally think it was written by the woman.
    Good luck with the leap. I had one recently myself.

    abloodredbird - June 1, 2007 at 6:10 am
  33. It was totally written by a man. No doubt about it. I’m an amateur graphologist. Kiss your woman for sure. I have a good feeling about it. The worst that can happen is that she slaps you. Then you’d at least know she wasn’t right for you . . . and she was violent.

    abarclay12 - June 1, 2007 at 6:16 am
  34. Very interesting… I’m going that it was written by a guy.

  35. Just kiss them all, dammit - it breaks the ice, if nothing else..!

    paddyK - June 1, 2007 at 6:47 am
  36. It’s written by someone who still maintain innocent and rose-glasses in life or is a kid hehe. Sometimes this someone is uplifting and positive but sometimes lose hope. Possibly someone who has mood swings.

    Note the emphasis on “Your” - capital Y.

    MJ - June 1, 2007 at 6:56 am
  37. The Writing on the Wall:
    “Kiss her, it may be your last chance!”
    Whether it’s written by a maniac man or a romantic gal, it does’t matter, what matters is that it represents the restless psyche of the world. Whether it is written in chalk or not, but at least it ‘talks’! Kissing her may be your last chance, but your desire to kiss her is ever lasting!

    UG tells rather eccentrically:
    “The body knows what it needs to do to survive. If it does not have the means to survive, it goes gracefully. The only reason for this organism to exist is to give continuity to the human species. Sex is only for reproduction, but you have turned that into a pleasure movement. What else is sex for other than reproduction?”

  38. Amusing that such a simple post shoots to the top of the list. I guess we are all fascinated by a kiss… especially a first kiss.

    I’m a little jealous that you have someone you are thinking about kissing. Hopefully, I can stumble into some electric and enticing soon.

    I think a girl wrote the graffiti. And I think you might want to heed the advice. Here’s to complicating life a little.

    びっくり - June 1, 2007 at 7:20 am
  39. You know… This pic convinced me to do it and kiss her. Thanks a bunch for posting this photo. :) I owe you, dude! ;)

    Oh, and keep up the goood work, ’cause I see that you took an interesting subject for a blog.

    LoneEagle | orlińsky - June 1, 2007 at 7:22 am
  40. Well I could go either way on this.

    I am currently dating someone I love very much but the other day a guy who was hanging out with me who has a girlfriend admitted to me that he was feeling guilty because he loves her very much but at the same time he wanted to kiss me. I am glad we worked it out so that perhaps given time we can still be friends and not be uncomfortable with each other but had he followed this advice and just kissed me, there would have been hell to pay afterwards for both of us.

    But I also know so many guys who fall for women or meet women by chance that they are interested in and I know that they desperately need this advice hammered into them with a sledgehammer. I have had guys I am interested in who are interested in me but who are too afraid to make a move so yes, I would love someone to remember this and make use of it.

    But should such things occur when either one or both of you are unavailable? Is it still good advice?

    I know that my friend kissing me might have felt good but that I care for no one else but my boyfriend so it would have been very messy.

    Marisa - June 1, 2007 at 7:44 am
  41. But How to… if you didn’t have a girl?? Hiks…

    Haryo Agung - June 1, 2007 at 7:56 am
  42. Reminds me of a boy I should’ve kissed long ago…honestly, it would have been worth it then as we haven’t seen each other in 10 years.

    Susan - June 1, 2007 at 8:11 am
  43. You should definitely kiss her.

    Otter - June 1, 2007 at 8:12 am
  44. It is a guy… if the “Author” is a she… she should have said “kiss him” not “Kiss her”.

    Richmond - June 1, 2007 at 8:15 am
  45. I kissed her… well my world turn upside down after that..but hey no regrets.. cos I know she is the love of my life…always will be.

    eashwander - June 1, 2007 at 8:24 am
  46. i go for a girl… me at d moment, really need a hug rather than a kiss. huh!

  49. Thanks. That and the Beatles comment really made me think about how I continuously say how I want to be spontaneous, I say it rather than do it. Worrying.

  50. Clearly feminine handwriting. It was written by a girl

    PhillK - June 1, 2007 at 9:05 am
  51. The advice is sound but what is even cooler is the sticker next to the writing; HD
    What’s that?

    Lovely pic, the only interesting graffiti I have seen around my suburb said “Bumsex”.

    Yours is much nicer.

    ” A girl I know, but you see it’s complicated, things would happen if I had either the balls or stupidity but the possible consequences seem to have stopped me from taking that leap of faith.
    I know exactly what you mean. It’s true - much easier to preach/advise.

    By the way, I think it was a man who who wrote it.

    swissabel - June 1, 2007 at 9:58 am
  57. all this unnecessary wondering? why can’t a man or boy just simply ask if he could give a kiss?
    the mouth is not just for kissing (people sometimes forget the talking part).

    joanie - June 1, 2007 at 10:06 am
  58. OK….I will kiss her tonite!

    simmone - June 1, 2007 at 10:34 am
  60. god dammit it’s like the universe is fucking with me… I’d kiss her if I were you. I’d fucking move the universe for her advantage. but you don’t work with her, I’d still kiss her. kiss her kiss her kiss her kiss her kiss her kiss her.

    deelo - June 1, 2007 at 10:50 am

    pokerbloggen - June 1, 2007 at 10:57 am
  63. Nice picture! No doubt about it…you know what you have to do ;)

    For the record…a bloke wrote that…no way a girl would write such a thing out of context.

    Jo - June 1, 2007 at 11:31 am
  64. Good saying. But lemme add that it definitely would be the last if you just go and kiss her. By the way the lines speak out loud, it sure has a story to tell. Of late my phrase has always “Do it before it gets too late”
    What say?

    Deep - June 1, 2007 at 12:00 pm
  65. Ouuuu! that’s so sweet! I always take this kind of things as signs or wise free advice…
    Kiss her!!!

    La Flor - June 1, 2007 at 12:29 pm
  67. Hello!
    Ran into your blog very randomly to fall on something that…oh well… reminds me of things I should do ;o)
    Have you, by any chance, seen the movie “Defending your life” (a comedy featuring Albert Brooks and Meryl Streep)? If not, I highly recommended it: the message makes you understand that sometimes (if not most or all) it is really worth overcoming a fear…or mental indigestion as a result of over-thinking.
    Good luck anyway and thanks for sharing that picture!!
    :o))

    K. - June 1, 2007 at 12:48 pm
  68. I love the picture and I have to say that it’s really good advice, especially sine I know a certain someone that needs to follow this advice.

    Now, I don’t know who wrote it, but I just seem to think a woman did.

    Chelsea - June 1, 2007 at 12:50 pm
  69. A woman in all probability

    neelkanth - June 1, 2007 at 1:16 pm
  70. Such a dilemma…

    Here are the options:

    a) Take your hand. Left or right, it doesn’t matter. Check to make sure that you still have balls, and if you do firmly grab them with your hand to reassure yourself of their existence. Now ignore every other feeling and just do what you want to do.

    b) Listen to your fear or anxiety and don’t take the leap of faith.

    If you can’t decide, take a coin, assign the option to each side. Flip the coin and read which side lands up. If you are happy with the choice that the coin has made, great. If you are not, then you have figured out what you don’t want to do and thus what you do.

    Arnold - June 1, 2007 at 1:26 pm
  71. Nice advice. It is same thing as tell someone you love her/him for tomorrow might already be too late.

    Who wrote it? male or female? I think it’s possibly a female.

    sunshineforlife - June 1, 2007 at 1:27 pm
  72. either a female wrote it or a heartbroken teenage boy! frankly, a lot of depends on the individual situation whether to kiss or not to kiss. But if it’s a burden-less situation, GO GET HER!

    trulymarsha - June 1, 2007 at 1:38 pm
  73. Arnold, the coin flipping idea is some of the best advice my best friend ever gave me.

    (and in the spirit of the original post - I did kiss him, then I fucked him. We didn’t become life partners, but we didn’t blow our friendship out of the water, either. There was some angst, some hurt feelings but in the long run, it’s brought us closer together. Sex is fleeting, love is forever.)

    priapismicsynthesis - June 1, 2007 at 1:38 pm
  74. reminded me of two things,

    number 1: Stones song This could be the last time

    and The cure’s album titile,

    Kiss me Kiss me kiss me

    http://a5.vox.com/6a00c225266be08e1d00c2252681dd8fdb-500pi

    she might me that desparate to be kissed as The Cure’s album title suggests.

    But you can’t hear her heart saying this, can ya???

  82. DO IT!!!

    KISS HER!

    T-Shirt - June 1, 2007 at 3:21 pm
  83. A better explanation for the “too lightly” written lower section is that the angle of the chalk has been altered due to the height of the writer, causing skipping. If you write with chalk on a wall, you will see the same thing nearly every time gets too low for a normal writing position.

  85. At the risk of redundancy (I just don’t have the time to make it through all 94 comments!), the handwriting looks more like the men’s handwriting I’ve seen than most womens. It’s just a guess, which is all I’m qualified to offer! :)

    This reminds me of my single favorite Disney song ever. “Kiss the Girl” from Little Mermaid. (Just don’t tell anyone I said that.) An excerpt for your reading pleasure:

    Sha-la-la-la-la-la
    Don’t stop now
    Don’t try to hide it how
    You wanna kiss the girl

    I’m waiting for someone I like (and who likes me) to kiss me … and waiting … and waiting …

    Why don’t I kiss him you ask?

    Bloody good question. Maybe I’m feeling the same fear of messing a good new friendship as he is (actually, I have no idea what he feels other than a big liking).

    OK - if you kiss her … I’ll kiss him. Deal?

  90. intuition tells me it’s a guy who wrote this. it it was a girl, i bet it would a flower or a heart or something. i’ve been reading some of the comments here and some people say love is complicated, and some say otherwise. you’re a smart guy to think of the consequences of your actions, but also a fool not to rise above your fears.

    whatever you’ve resolved to do, life will go on, either you’re with her or by yourself. regardless, things will be fine, don’t you think so?

    Humans think, it is our curse. To make this work in our favor we must make life an experiment, or series of experiments.

    soooo act and observe the results.

    When we are not observing, we are over-thinking things.

  100. A woman wrote it. She’d probably just read ‘He’s just not That Into You’ and she’s probably good looking and accomplished and frustrated. Frustrated that there might be men who want to kiss her but don’t have the balls because modern society has beat it out of them.

    Please kiss her, for the rest of us who are trying to figure out why we keep getting overlooked. FOLLOW THE BIOLOGY!!

  101. This is written clearly by a male,
    but His psychological condition was far far away from being either.
    and Maturity un attainable.

    Because he has seen the peak of pains.

  102. i don’t understand why humans have so many limitations and restrictions when it comes to expressing emotions and feelings towards another human being.

    i understand the nature of being nervous, but thats the best part. men always talk about being “pussys” for being too romantic … i say its the opposite if they cant even muster up the courage to embrace a girl …. same goes for woman tho too … make shit count - do something you’re afraid to do!! kiss the girl

  103. love that photo! Nothing wrong with men who have a romanti side, jsut as long as they don’t start weaking my frilly nighties.*lool*

  104. Just Say Yes. Always say yes. thats how I’m trying to live. In these situations its harder, but Im trying and Im getting better at it. so, say yes!

  105. I was tired of playing games and waiting for guys to make the first move, so last week I shocked my friends by asking a guy I fancied out on a casual date, and two days later I told him I liked him in a text message, because I wanted to find out how he felt about me. Though I felt a certain sense of liberation, my stomach did plenty of flip-flops while I kept checking my phone. I kept imagining him reading it and going into utter shock (nobody expected me to be this daring!)

    Three hours later, a message arrived (finally!). It said: “If you ever need someone to talk to, please don’t hesitate to call me okay? I think you are an awesome girl and I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone like you.”

    Feeling relieved, I did a little victory dance around my bedroom.

    P.S. Unfortunately it was not all happily ever after for me. Today I rang him (for the first time!) to wish him luck for his soccer game tonight and he was really insensitive on the phone!

  106. As an English teacher who has just wrapped up grading about 40 exams in the last 12 hours, it looks kind of like male handwriting to me. Possibly someone who had just mised his chance, or maybe someone who just took the chance and realized it was in the last possible moment. It almost looks jaunty, like he took the chance and it paid off, rather than he missed the chance and is now warning others.

    Either way, take the chance. Decide it will go horrible, make your peace with that and then take the chance. Even if the result is catosrophic, it’s something you know, as opposed to not knowing, which can haunt you for ages.

  107. It’s has to be women who wrote this. Probably frustrated because she knows she’ll slip away if he doesn’t do something soon!!! Aaargh!!!

  108. You should always do what is most in your own enlightened self interest. That’s not always the most polite thing to do, or the most socially-accepted. But it’s always the best thing to live with.

  109. Central London? Where exactly was this sign? It could be a deviously perfect place to “accidentally” pass by with a girl at the end of a date.. :)

    Wille - June 1, 2007 at 9:20 pm
  110. I think most significant is not the kiss part, but the “it might be your last chance” part - whatever it might mean to you. I think of my dog. Life is perfectly fleeting. These moments collect and fall away without any notice at all, like raindrops down a storm drain. But right now, I’m noticing. It’s sunny.

    (Actually, my husband might have cleaned these windows. It doesn’t usually look this clear from where I sit.)

    Sun. Trees. Grass. Sleeping toddler. xo

  112. Do it. Either way it works out, your life will probably change.

    johnnyolive - June 1, 2007 at 11:01 pm
  113. You know, Most people dont have dare to express their feelings for they think if they do and get blocked by other side, they will lose so much. It is depend on you, your choice and your personality. If you are the person always do risking even for one step forward, then you will kiss her and never lose the chance..

  117. nice pic

    fonzi - June 2, 2007 at 3:09 am
  118. I see it as a guy wrote it because I view it subjectively … I don’t try to be an object unless I’m called to be for some purpose. So, artistically, I’m imagining myself (a guy) challenging my senses as to whether or not I should kiss her. Pretty simple really. Now, If I were at work an had to assess it objectively, i’d have to say there is not way to know.

    coachchuck - June 2, 2007 at 3:13 am
  119. I’m going to say that it was a guy. I happen to know a very charming fellow who kissed and was rebuffed and he still had the balls and intense emotion to try again. We’re nearly a year and going strong. What’s the worst that could happen?

  121. Correct…better do it than never…

    Janice - June 2, 2007 at 4:01 am
  122. Yeh that is a top picture. It also makes me want to kiss this girl. Take heed of it’s message…life is too short.

    lastmanstanding - June 2, 2007 at 5:01 am
  123. Indeed a sound advice… :)

    Go for it! :)

    Hope you’d post what happen?! :)

    bluejeansgirl - June 2, 2007 at 7:12 am
  124. Go for the great advice if not yoll never do it :-)

    gumdropjr - June 2, 2007 at 12:52 pm
  125. great advice =)

    kiss her it may be your last chance?!
    wat if everyone start kissing someone they love/admire/etck.
    every 0.01second you’ll get a kiss by a possible admirer/stalker.

    that would be creepy.
    but either a man or woman who wrote it,
    I believe he or she’s is in love,
    but still hasn’t kiss the person yet. (maybe)

    haha~

    katrynvaldez - June 2, 2007 at 4:24 pm
  126. Kissed Her ! (yeah!)

    alienlondoner - June 2, 2007 at 6:05 pm
  127. if that girl gets under your skin go out and get her…
    i know something about love…

    miss m - June 2, 2007 at 6:54 pm
  128. i like that picture a lot. i’m sure lots of people have given their fair share of opinions of whether to kiss your girl or not, so i’ll spare you my comment.

    the picture did trigger me to realize to not hold my feelings inside, i mean, with certain consequences in mind. you probably shouldn’t kiss her if she’s married or something… anyway, it’s a nice little topic, and it’s gotten me a little bit melancholy…i guess i wish i was that girl who is so wanted right now lol

    kiki - June 2, 2007 at 10:52 pm
  129. really cool topic…its triggered a lot of nostalgic thoughts in everyone as we can see from the number of responses…im sure anyone would have gone through that phase where they liked a girl/guy but never told them for some reason and that would have left a little burning ember inside them….Its always easier to say carpe diem than to actually do it….there was this cute girl in coll who i had a crush on but never actually had the courage to tell her….last week i got to know that she had found someone…and the next day i saw this topic…coincidence???…neway i think its gotta be a guy who wrote it…..

  131. I say you should just do it. Pay attention to her body language and go for it. What do you have to lose?

    misstressm - June 3, 2007 at 6:47 am
  132. Definitely a woman.

    Harry - June 3, 2007 at 7:38 am
  133. go for it … at least you’ll know and then you can have no regrets!

    belle - June 3, 2007 at 10:44 am
  134. I think it was written by Destiny…Fate’s close cousin. Sometimes, it doesn’t matter who wrote it, it just matters that we read what was written and then, act on it.

    Life makes us take circuitous paths all the time. Sometimes we turn right in order to turn left…we must stop in order to proceed. There’s a wierd cosmic nature to it all. But look at it this way mate, you were supposed to see this. And considering the issue you’re having with that girl, maybe that was your sign…sent from on high through the hand of a bored butcher with access to a chalk board. Maybe it was some kid’s joke…either way, you saw it andit made you think. It was for you..meant for you…intended for you to read, digest and probably do something about. We ask for signs all the time…sometimes, they’re right before our eyes.

    So…..did you? Kiss her, I mean?

    Cheers,

  135. It’s a woman whose lot in life did not have the same outcome as the enscription so she chose to give others the inspiration to have the gumption her “want-to-be” lover never had. If that at all makes sense. :)

    I like that version.

    Helen - June 3, 2007 at 2:13 pm
  136. Oh yea! Sorry I forgot! Your lot… Should you say something? I’m not a fan of rejection, but if you’re living a life of sleepless nights, waiting in random locations just to glimpse of her or finding yourself writing her name on cafe napkins, I would say you might want to know the answer and not the “what if”. Unless of course you can live with “What if”.

    michaelbenabib - June 3, 2007 at 5:33 pm
  138. Yeah it’s a sign, alright. But don’t just kiss the girl. Catch her eyes first and if she doesn’t avert her face from you then go for it. Otherwise you’d be in your 70s and still wondering if you’d let the right one go?

    danaean78 - June 3, 2007 at 7:01 pm
  139. Great photo! I don’t think it much matters whether the author is male or female. Someone was trying to send a message to another “someone” - a good message to just go for it! Just dooooooooooooit and take a chance!

    Hawk - June 3, 2007 at 7:11 pm
  140. Elementary. It was written by a chalk salesman.

    outeasy - June 3, 2007 at 7:33 pm
  141. I think a man wrote it who lost his chance and is full of regeret. I also agree that the gender does not matter; you should heed the advice. It is a sign. Let it move you to action.

    pocketchangeaustin - June 3, 2007 at 9:32 pm
  142. I love that blog post. It has sentimental value to it:

    “Kiss her, it may be your last chance.”

    thebcshow - June 3, 2007 at 9:36 pm
  143. It’s quite romantic, maybe a man wrote it.

    Francisca - June 3, 2007 at 11:23 pm
  144. Women usually have a fatter more circular type of handwriting.
    Just look and compare the next time you think about it.

    chilidogandcoke - June 4, 2007 at 12:57 am
  145. What I mean by that is that they have more space in between the lines of the characters they make.

    chilidogandcoke - June 4, 2007 at 12:58 am
  146. I think it was a guy who wrote it. And as for things that we see giving us a push in the right direction, in reference to your situation, think of it as fate.
    Good luck with your own problem.
    And great picture.
    Life is too short, might as well take what we can get one monet at a time…

    radiantwoman - June 4, 2007 at 5:24 am
  148. This is very timely for me as well…I recently re-connected with a guy a used to work with 6 years ago. A long conversation between us revealed that the whole time we were working together (2 years), we were both very attracted to each other but never acted upon it for various reasons. The next day he posted this on his myspace page:

    “When you see something you like, do what you can to get it. Don’t live life standing still.”

    He’s in Chicago still, and I’m in SF. We never thought we’d ever speak again. You never know…

  155. i am Asian..Christian catholic to be specific…within the spangs of culture and social grace..ask her first, then before she answers give her that quick kiss- if she smiles then go torrid..if she won’t like it..just say sorry..and better luck next time then :P

    beautyandmadness - June 4, 2007 at 2:04 pm
  156. Just Kiss Her… If you had a penny for everytime you did take a chance or a leap of faith how rich would you be?

    Life’s about being really rich with experience! Live it. =)

    It’s a sign!!

    thegiraffediaries - June 4, 2007 at 3:04 pm

  168. it can be a woman’s writing, looks like it… how would she be, a dreamer? also a bit shy.. and also tired of waiting or perhaps even sad.. but it can also be an undecided man, shy, trying to figure out his feelings and encourage himself. hard to tell.
