Nerds in Love by Melanie M. (19, F, Los Angeles, CA) "An older friend of mine introduced me to his cousin, let's call him Matt, while I was at their house one night, and from that night, Matt was completely obsessed with me. We'd hang out often enough and I'd ignore his obvious crush in hopes that we'd just be good friends. He was a nerd, I was a nerd...it seemed to work out well enough. The week before Valentines day I get a text from my friend and he says, "Matt wants to know if you'd like to hang out with us on the 14th." I accepted, assuming that both of them wanted to go see a movie or something with me because they both knew I don't really like Valentines day. Cool. Whatever. V-day rolls around and I get picked up by Matt's MOM with Matt sitting in the back, my other friend no where to be seen. We sit quietly for the entire ride and I wonder if he thinks this is a date. Apparently he does because he tries to kiss me twice with his mom right there. Creepy. His mom ends up dropping us off at a strip mall, where we walk around and look at stuff because neither of us has money. There's a little kid train that runs around the place, so I started following it because I begin to act like a child when I'm bored. He joins in and actually seems to enjoy it. We followed that train for four hours straight. At least I got my exercise in."
