Search Results: getting respect at work

So my girlfriend was a new person at my school.

Though she was new, she connected with everyone rather quickly, and became quite popular.

She was pretty, kind, wore a variety of clothes clearly from a rich family, academically fantastic, already joined several clubs, had her own car, etc.

I'm just a quiet introvert who works hard but isn't very smart, and I come from a poor family that's from Brazil... so out of my league for sure.

But one day, in my first class, AP English Language... I sit in this table made up of 4 desks all alone, since there's only like 16 people in that class to begin with, and a lot of them are absent a lot. And I tend to find people rather distracting. That's my usual thing.

She usually sits with the more outgoing people, but this one day asked if she could sit with me. And I say sure.

She asks me some basic questions... what I like to do... where I'm from... my age... my favorite school subject... etc. Then we have to do a group assignment in pairs, and she REALLY seemed to like my ideas. English is my best subject, but I didn't think they were good as she made them out to be.

Then, it went on... some days she'd sit with me, some days with other people... till eventually she asked me out. She asked me by whispering in my ear, and I said yes.

And we've hung out some days... she'd pick me up at my house, and we'd do something casual/fun together. We'd go out for a coffee, or we'd go jog around together, or go to the gym, just hang around her house and talk, etc. Sometimes her little 8 year old sister would join... but that was it.

The other day, though, she asked me to go for a swim for her in her backyard pool... the first time she did, I didn't have a swimsuit, so she let it go.

Another day, though, I did bring a swimsuit, and we went for a swim...

The thing, is, though, my girlfriend wore a bikini and has a really hot model-like body, and I felt like I was kind of taking advantage of her, since I respect her as a person.
