Personal Help?

 Ok, so, I have a problem.

This may seem like a stupid problem to be hurting over; but...well let me explain:

This last weekend, I went to Fan Expo in Toronto (Toronto's version of ComiCon). On the Sunday, the last day, I met this guy...And I think I fell in love.

For you to really understand the problem, I should probably give you some background

Hey there, I just wanted to thank you so much for your response to my latest post. I also have a thing for the name Eric. My mum always thought I was a bit barmy because when I was younger, I had a dream that my mate would be named Eric (and with this spelling to :D)

I also think you're right about the friends zone thing. Although, even so, I guess I just wish that he would make some kind of effort; I mean, when your friends are on line, you pipe up and say hi, don't you?

I guess I'm just putting too much stock in the coincidences of our meeting, you know; seeing him everywhere I went, despite there being over 60,000 people there, randomly being given the last raffle ticket, when everyone else had to pay, winning the one DVD set that I already had when there were over 3 dozen different prizes. I really only discovered Doctor Who about 3 weeks before the convention, and he turns out to be dressed as the 10th Doctor? To follow, what are the odds that some random stranger on Twitter, who had never met neither him nor I before, was able to find him and get his full name, on just my one sad, incomplete description/plea? And last but not least; what are the odds that he would have the name Eric, spelt the right way, and be around my age, live (at least) near the same city, and be going to school close to mine, and be working on a project that directly impacts my field of study?!

And yet, with all that, all those "signs" staring back at me, he felt nothing. I think that's what hurts the most: that I have all of this stupid, pointless emotion, and he's completely unaffected.

By this point, I've regulated myself to waiting. If there really were that many "signs", then surely, I've done all I can in getting him to notice me. If there really were all those signals, then surly, if something's really meant to come of it, there will be more right? More signs, more pull. I guess, for a non religious person, I'm relying heavily on my faith in the universe right now.

It seems the be my only option.
