HELP!!! I need advice from anyone and EVERYONE reading this!!!
Let me get one thing straight... I have done and said some really bad things, so I probably won't be getting any sympathy from any of you... and I don't deserve any...

I'll make this story as short as possible... telling it in detail would fill up a book...

I am a 22 year old guy and I have friends with this girl for 4 years... she's 18... we met when I was a senior in high school and she was an 8th Grader... Over the past 4 years we've had lots of good times, and a few bad times like any other friendships. But overwhelmingly this girl means the world to me... she's like part of my family! We've talked about being more than friends and we've... ahem... experienced other things together... but we've also kept ours a friendship.

This past May, although she is a straight A student, she came very close to NOT graduating... its a VERY complicated story, but she ended up having to write a 10 or 12 page paper... I helped her with it a little, proofreading it, making suggestions, pointers... and she turned it in the day before graduation and found out she was graduating the morning of the ceremony.

I'll continue this story in another post... this one is getting long...

4. My advice is to work on your story-telling.
This tale goes nowhere and I don't see what your problem is. Perhaps it would help to take a writing course.

7. I'm just razzing you. Although dividing up the story really doesn't...
make it easier. Don't be scared or nervous. Things will be fine. :toast:

8. You weren't initimate until she was 16 and you only made grammar
suggestions for the paper.

That should be your story and you should stick to it.
Really.
