I follow Charles Christmas now on both Facebook and Instagram and have concluded that he is one cool cucumber. This nerd from middle school has grown into a fun, active man who works out a million times a day and goes to outdoor concerts. He seems to have a real thirst for life that I admire, and I want him to be my friend. I guess more accurately, my friend again. For some reason, I feel like I should ask him about this, but I am forever scarred from when I asked this guy Ayo from college, who I thought was cool for the same reasons, to be my pen pal and he said no. I felt so stupid. Of course he would say no! I could just imagine him making fun of me with his friends. There is a price to putting yourself out there ladies, even platonically. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
"Stop feeling like you gotta be everybody's friend!" Lisha yelled in my ear when I told her how I want to reach out to Charles Christmas about being buddies. She just doesn't want to see me embarrass myself but honestly, if I'm not embarrassing myself, what am I doing?
I brainstormed how I could reach out to him without looking thirsty and I concluded sending him a message similar to this one:
You have been chosen to be a friend of Holly Clay! Follow the link below to a Google questionnaire to be further considered for this position.
Once he got to the questionnaire, he'd have to answer the following questions:
- Do you like burritos?
- Do you like talking on the phone/ texting?
- What are your views on the color blue?
- Is Teyanna Taylor a girl?
- Where do you stand on canned meats?
