It's not as mortifying as I think it is, is it?

Not the smartest move. Why not give him a call explaining you was only joking about the dead thing. Go for a walk together and try explaining how you feel. What have you got to lose.

The wording sounds pretty strong to me. Sometimes we can say things and the inflection in our voice tell the other party we are joking and they will not take it seriously. There is no inflection in the written word. A statement says what it says.

I would be offended if someone texted me a message like that and would probably scratch them off of my list and as far as I was concerned her hope would come true.

Speaking from a boys perspective??? You should text him and explain, total honestly, That You were feeling at a loss because U adore him and didn't want things go carry on as they were. use the words: "Look I think I like you and things just haven't been moving, so I'm wondering if u fancy a few drinks, Its cool if no, we'll just stay friends"

your pretty nasty when you want your own way. I would run far away if someone texted me and said I hope your dead or ill because of something stupid thats not a big thing. Grow up girl.!!!!

you told you hope he's dead or really ill? not a good move.

try playing a little hard to get, guys love the chase.

With boys its harder for them to get the picture on what your trying to say. Just tell him straight forward what your talking about.

ASK YOURSELF IF UR FEELINGS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN HIS WELLBEING...IF U TRULY LUV HIM BEING STRAIGHT IS A BETTER OPTION THAN BEATING AROUND THE BUSH.U SURELY WUDNT WANT IT TO BE A ONE SIDED AFFAIR,WUD U?

r u for real . u must be thick as sh.it . if i woz him i would never talk to you ever again . u fuckin div !!!
