And then she adds, "By the way, if you meet someone else, you should probably just go with them even though I might holler at ya later."
I think the better analogy might be that you see this girl, no, wait, movie star that everyone adores. She's walking by on the red carpet to her newest movie premiere, looking hot. You watch as she goes. You consider saying something, but then you think, "I'm so out of her league. She could never like me or give me the time of day." But some crazy thought makes you yell, "I love you! Let me take you on a date!" Instead of being shocked and apalled that you propositioned her, she takes a measured look at you and says, "You're kinda cute. Wait for me here and after the show, I'll think about it."

And that's why we like being held by Harvard.
Love this.
+1

And compared to this Columbia is like, another movie star, slightly less beautiful and she does these:

1 ) James Franco asks to take her on a date and she ignores him.
2 ) Normal guy asks him and she gives her number and dumps the disposable phone the number belongs to 5 minutes later.
3 ) That guy's slightly uglier cousin asks and she gives her real number but tells him that he should never call and instead wait for her to call.
4 ) To spite all of above, she starts dating a bum, which she violently murders the next day.
5 ) On 3rd day, she sends a letter to the 2nd guy that has a single word on it "LOL".

So, she gets lynched by all suitors.

Haha if Harvard saw the things they make people post I'm sure there'd be combined JR1/JR2 immediately.

How long do they hold for? I just sent a new LOR form to the head of a campaign I worked for in the fall so it should be a couple of weeks at least before the letter arrives at LSAC. Will they wait or should I email them and ask?

The email said any time from the start of the hold. So far the only people who saw movement were one or two people who had pre-hold JR1s.

I am in the friend zone with Harvard:

"A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you're a great guy, but I don't like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired."

Come on, Harvard! Soon I'll be over you, and you'll realize what you had all along. I'll be your one that got away. FUUUUUU

Oh honey, that ship sailed a long time ago. I just don't want to get flat out rejected now. Plus, this whole "hold" group looks pretty spiffy.
