/po/ I'm making 1000 cranes to try and win back a girl who I lost.

am I crazy?

She isn't sickly, is she?
You do know what 1000 cranes are for, right?
Buy a dozen roses and a nice card saying how sorry you are.
Even if it wasn't you fault.
Or, make a thousand roses instead.
That'd be darn impressive.

Yes you are. Talk to her. If she still doesn't want you back, too bad. Folding 1000 paper cranes may seem romantic in movies, but in real life, it's desperate (most girls don't like that), it's pathetic (most girls don't like that), and it's gay (only other gay guys like that).

Wake up dude: if you screwed up with her, be a man, talk to her and deal with it, don't go hide away folding paper cranes hoping she'll take you back because she might feel bad because she made you into this pathetic loser that went nuts and stepped out of real life to fold paper cranes. Jeez...

from what I understand 1000 cranes are used for either A) a wish or B) something people in love do as a test of trust and paitence in a relationship.

OH, and it's also used if someone's sick.

I knew someone who did that to cure her deadly cancer caused by radiation fallout from an atomic blast.


Yeah, it didn't work out. I'd go with flowers.

I'm a dude, but I know if someone made me 1000 paper cranes, for any reason, I would be quite a bit freaked out and not want anything to do with that person.
Either do something normal, like flowers, or leave her alone you stalker freak.

They're to grant a wish. Any wish. Traditionally they were for prosperity and long life. Since the war they've got peace and good health tacked on there too.

You're nuts. Talk to the girl or leave her alone.

It only works if you're Japanese. Dirty barbaric foreigners need not apply.

Talk out your problems, don't fold paper cranes.

Although, how DO you fold paper cranes? I want to try out of boredom.

For a good idea on what to do with 1000 cranes, read:

"Porcelain" by Chay Yew

It's the best goddamn play in the world.

Read "Porcelain" by Chay Yew. That'll give you an idea. The paper cranes are the central theme of the story and it's a damn good play as well.

I can't find a synopsis or script link, could someone please elaborate on how the cranes play into the story?

folding 1000 paper cranes shows thathe has devotion to her and that he cares enough to put effort into getting her back. and its romantic and sweet.

It shows that he is such a desperate loser living in his own world, that he doesn't know what normal people do to work out their problems and only knows what movie/book/anime characters do in such a situation...

If you want to "show devotion" and show her "that you care enough to put effort into getting her back", go talk to her instead of folding 1000 paper cranes in your room at your parent's house... Working things out (or not, that's a possibility too, so be it, deal with it...) is much better than showing up on her doorstep next month with a 1000 paper cranes...

this is true but it went over her head. She dumped me and then started dating a jackass abusive hockey-player.

funny how these things work out. The reason why I considered doing cranes was because everyone who knew her thought it'd be really sweet and it was a personal test of dedication and concentration on my part.

she told me she was seeing him at crane 258.

Well, maybe you know the reason why she dumped you, which could, I dunno, BE HELPFUL to those trying to assist your decision.

If its because you are a wapanese, we can't help though.

You're crazy, I swear. From what it sounds like, you probably won't get her back. But, if you finish, you can hang them all up as a doorway-covering-thing. That'd be pretty neat and impress your next girlfriend.

eeh, I'm not wapanese, just someone with too much time on their hands and a love of origami.

and yeah, I know why she dumped me and it's too much to get into right now. Needless to say I don't need to change myself to be a suitable boyfriend.

she dumped me because I experimented in psychedelics a while back when she did coke and didn't tell me.
