>>11 Your definition of "normal" seems to mean your perception of the average person (More likely than that, average teenager) entering a relationship (Dating). This is disastrous in large. However, I do believe that there is benefit in direct approach when attraction is felt (Which is a separate kind of mindest, one not so bound up in the immediacy of pleasure, and that incorporates the other individual as a person.)

To be less technical, I think that people, in general, should be more thoughtful when entering relationships. However, especially in this person's case, it's clear that serious critical correction of current thought process is needed, because it sounds like he's worshiping her like some goddess.

(Despite what some may tell you, you should Never treat another human being as if they were Any form of diety.)

Finally, the situation deserves consideration because of the long-term effects that it will have on them both because of how society would react. This doesn't just go for if they had a relationship, but for even having him bring up the subject of his attraction. Regardless of whether or not society should feel/think/act as it does, ti Does act that way, and he should consider what results his actions will have on her (and himself). (Because of the potential repercussions, I've suggested the way of approaching her above, if he's going to decide to approach at all.)

>>12 STFU and GTFO already, you fucking uneducated douchebag. It's clear to all of us here that you are satisfied with not thinking things through, with a mediocre education, and with feeling that satisfaction/success is not getting tortured for life. Great, you don't belong here, and no one respectable would even want to engage in speaking with you beyond for the purpose of insulting you or having a laugh at your expense. Please die or grow the fuck up.

>>14 Damaging to suppress feelings? You sound like Freud. Restraint is quite often a good thing, though not to the extreme of some sort of tyrannical authoritarianism. Read up on Chinese philosophy to better understand what I'm saying. (Because I don't mean to say that one should have balance in the way the Greeks referred to the mean.)
