I think we got all the way up to 20!

how do you play MASH?

[plain jane doe]

You list the following:

MASH
Mansion
Apartment
Shack
House

Car (these are examples)
Ferrari
VW Bus
Toyota
Ford pickup

Job
Dream Job
Good Job
Boring Job
Pooper Scooper

Guy
Crush #1
Crush #2
Crush #3
Crush #4

If you are the one writing, then crushes should be for your friend. Your friend picks a number, say, 11. Then you count to and cross off the 11th item, loop back, and cross off every 11th item until one is left in each category. This game predicts the future!! It tells you where you will live, what you will drive, what you will do every day, and who you will marry!!

You can add any number of categories and find out all the details of your future life.

Haha one of my crush's code name was "the sun." This became really useful because then I could ask one of my close friend if the "sun was out" or if "the sun was with clouds" and etc. Oh, those were good times lol.

I still get crushes, all the time! It makes life fun.

Speaking of odd crush code names, I remember in grade 6, I had one who was "shrimp" and one who was "Christmas tree". Made sense at the time... lol.

if me or my friend had a crush on somebody from our school and we would notice them somewhere we had a code word we used to let the other one know the target was approaching Im ashamed to say but we also wrote a diary together where we would note how many guys had a crush on us and asked us out , drool over the cute ones and mock the less lucky ones.

Pfffft... I have a new crush like every day! It's something I've never really outgrown. I've stopped doodling Mrs. So and So on all my notebooks and kissing their pictures though, I swear

Narcissa-- just curious, how is this guy your bf if he just works all the time and has never had a crush on a girl? Does that mean he didn't/doesn't have a crush on you?

And OMG @ MASH and the "code names." That makes me miss jr high and HS so much!

[jellybebe]

I'd say countless at this point. However, the pining "unrequited love" feeling from high school has definitely ended!

Totally remember MASH and using code names for guys. Ah, those were the days!

...um, besides me? Lol. And no, he doesn't work all the time. He just thinks that he has better things to do than flirt with girls if he's not serious about them.

I don't know, some of this just doesn't make sense to me. I get the feeling that something's missing here. I don't know many young guys who don't enjoy "crushing" on objects of desire. Saying that someone has "better things to do" seems odd.

Well, me neither.

It's not like he openly thought about it and told me this. I was the one who asked him about it. And asked for explanations. And that's what he and his friends have said.

I know some people who, when they have "crushes," they go full out crazy about them. One of my friends is like this. So they have like, one crush in their life that lasts forever. I don't think that's very enjoyable.

[ηαя¢ιςςα]

Haha I was skeptical too, once upon a time. But he let me stalk his old emails/conversations for fun and I haven't found any evidence to the contrary :) the opposite, in fact.

What do you mean? What did you find?
I still don't understand. Perhaps he is asexual?

I don't think he's asexual. Hmm...whatever that entails. Just his friends going like "Whoa you've never been interested in girls and now you're going crazy over (me)?" in a teasing way. From conversations from before we were together.
