Professed my feelings for someone who later tonight rejected me.
This is the most I've ever cared for a girl. I feel really, really shitty.

I did this once to similar results. Hugs to you.

Girls are heartless harpies. You need to hit a strip club and make it rain.
 

j/k Hugs to you, sorry you got turned down.

Don't do that.

Especially with a girl, don't ever be weak

[Jared C]

Awww, thanks for the hugs, everyone.
I love you all. <3

[Cow]

I was serious btw.

[Jared C]

Well, how else are you suppose to go about it?

[BlueSweatshirt]

You be a punk and act like an emotionless hunk all the time and end up single for the rest of your life party like a pro.
I say don't worry about it man, there's no way to start a good relationship without opening up yourself. Hugs to you, though. 

I'm kind of confused at this point, personally. No matter all my efforts, my game hasn't picked up much heat. At this point I'm confused if it's a lack of marketing, the game being good, or something else out of my reach. If the game simply sucked, I really wish people would tell me so, but that hasn't been the case. I've simply gotten nothing.
I've been very demoralized for the past few days. 
But at the same time, I've kept going and looking forward. Still, it's kind of hard to motivate myself like this.

If you're interested in someone, ask them out basically immediately, like after one or two good conversations max. Long before you're emotionally invested. It both increases your chances tremendously and prevents it from hurting like the worst thing ever in the world ever.

Get a website for it, throw in multiplayer maybe.. I got to say I didn't play much but the part I did play was really fun and I liked it

That really bugs me but it's true, and I thought girls like sensitive guys? Whatever happened to that. Anyway the same thing happened to me except it wasn't feelings of love. I was really stressed out and depressed at the moment and I talked to this girl about it once and now we never really talk much anymore.

Girls are like.. you know.. individuals. They are like.. you know.. different from each other.

But to "profess feelings" can be a pretty clumsy way to do things. I find it better to get to know someone and to get closer and more intimate to that person over time. It's not overly difficult to "feel" if there is a mutual attraction if you start hanging out all the time and start doing semi-romantic things together.

But it's also a bit dependant on what your culture looks like. Over here we don't go on formal "dates" or such.

Professing feelings, to me, is a last resort. I used it once with a girl I had been in love with for years but who treated pretty badly. I told her about my feelings in order to get it out of my system and move on.

Ooooooooooooooooo, I hate that. D:

You guys are making things too complicated.

Express your feelings the way you want to- if she reacts negatively, then things are not going to work out anyway, and just move on.
Expressing feelings the way you want to is not a sign of weakness, it's part of a healthy relationship.

Some guys don't feel like sharing their feelings unless it's a really special and intimate moment, others like to be more open about it. Do whatever floats you boat.

In my case, I'm not talking about giving her a Shakespearian monologue about your love after the first date, but saying things along the lines of "I had a really nice time, I greatly enjoy spending time with you" etc. is important. Girls who react badly to that are probably not worth being with in the first place.

Other than that... what he said:

Rushing in a relationship is a recipe for disaster, in my experience.

Although, later on, it would be best to at least make sure you're both on the same page.
So I guess you will have to express your intentions and feelings eventually.

Hang in there guys and girls. It's going to be a bumpy, crazy, scary ride.
But it's the only ride you got.

<HUGS TO ALL... Because, well, that's what we do here>
