    No, but Dabamf is absolutely right. Every other guy they"ve dated has likely tried to get in their pants instantly. When all of the sudden this new guy, despite appearing to be fairly interested, isn"t trying the same thing it can definitely increase their attraction and/or make them work harder...

    Yeah that"s where I"m at. If she wasn"t interested she wouldn"t make time for me. Again, she works fulltime in a fairly high-pressure job working for the cabinet of the provincial government which just went through a shuffle and is also finishing up the last term of her MBA three nights a week...

    Yeah, I"m thinking I"ll just suggest we hang out at my place and cook a meal together. I"ve got a cookbook that has a bunch of easy to make but still pretty good meals. We can just pick something out of that and cook it together (I drink beer while she cooks). Haven"t tried contacting her...

    I"m not saying she"d be mad if you didn"t buy her something or do something cheesey to mark the day. I"m saying that she"ll be happy if you do. There"s a difference. I refuse. She doesn"t have to learn how to unplug toilets, kill bugs, do random carpentry, lift heavy objects or open jars. I...

    Cross posting because it"s more relevant here: How do you figure? Because I haven"t married someone or stayed in relationships that weren"t going to work out long term suddenly I"m failing at interpersonal relationships? Fuck that, I can interpersonal the shit out of most people, I"m well liked...

    Alright, here"s a question about that most dreaded of days for us guys: Valentine"s Day. So I"ve gone on three dates with Anna now. As I"ve said, she"s really busy and we can only really get together once every week or two. No discussions about where we"re going or anything like that. It"s been...

    Like I said, I just think it"s a shitty thing to do, regardless of whether or not it will ever come back to haunt you in any way.

    I"m kind of surprised that no one"s called him out. Regardless of her willingness to cheat on her fiance, going after married or engaged women in my opinion is just a flat out shitty thing to do, whether you know the guy or not.

    He"s already stated that both he and her do not agree with abortion. Regardless of your opinion on that particular issue, I"m sure we can all agree that he"s not going to change his mind and attempting to convince him to is just a waste of time and effort.

    Yeah, after I told a friend the full story as well the next night, his comment was that the attempt at the kiss in the elevator was a big mistake, if my intent was to try to get any action at all from the situation. I fully agree from that particular perspective. However, what I was after was...

    I just want to be clear I was talking about paternity tests in a general sense, and not his specific situation. I said my piece about his situation, which is that it"s obviously not ideal, but outside of that he wasn"t really asking for any advice so I didn"t bother giving any other than...

    Well, considering the huge legal and financial ramifications involved, I can actually see why someone would want to have tests done regardless of the circumstances. Not to mention the story I told of my friend, who"s child was raised by another dude for the first 3 years of its life, with the...

    Hey! Fuck you guy! What"s there to facepalm? I"m not here whimpering about my life or trying to hatch ways of getting her back. I took one last kick at the can, lost, posted the aftermath for all to see and will continue doing my best to move on. No facepalming required! I"m pretty sure I did in...

    Oh yeah fully agreed, you and several others called that perfectly, no argument here. I actually had typed up and sent the exact same message to a female friend over Facebook and just copypasta"d it over here, and she said the exact same thing. She thought she might even harborsomesmall feelings...

    Oh yeah, maybe I wasn"t clear in my last post, I"ve written any future involvement with Anne off. Never say never and all that, but it"s time to move on. Has been for awhile. I don"t regret giving it one last shot by any means, and hopefully it"ll hammer the point home that much better. Its...

    Livejournal entry below! Spoiler Alert, click show to read:hah jesus, what a waste of time and emotional energy. So dinner and the hockey game with Anne seemed to be going well. Conversation was good, we were joking around, and I thought we were both enjoying ourselves. Lots of references to...

    It"s very true though, you never know when shit might pop up. A friend of mine got a call from a chick he"d had a one night stand with years before, had a test done, and sure enough found out he had a nearly 4 year old son that the girl had thought was someone else"s until a test was done...

    Breaks happen, which is exactly why the female should also be using some form of BC. To me condoms are more about STD"s than they are about preventing pregnancies, because they"re so shitty at it. I"ve had condoms break and/or just come right off on several occasions, but luckily nothing has...

    Calgary"s got pretty bad traffic if you"re going North/South because there"s really only a single major freeway, and because of the layout of the city there"s not really much for other options since the roads aren"t nearly as much of a grid system as other cities. Calgary"s maybe 10% bigger than...

    I don"t really see the point of giving someone advice on how to play the field when what they want is the girl they"re with. Just like girls can be wired different, so can dudes. Not all dudes want to run around fucking a new and different girl every weekend. That"s never been my style either...

    It depends on sites too I would imagine, and again maybe even regionally. With PoF being a free site and quite popular around here, I found it didn"t matter if I tailored responses or not, I was lucky to have a 20% response rate. I"m sure with paid sites you might start to see a better payoff...

    Girls who broke your heart thread

    But considering that the response rate on PoF can be 1 in 10 depending on how your profile looks, it"s not time efficient to send every girl a personalized message unfortunately. I can"t remember which dating website it was, but one of the owners or moderators did a pretty long post...

    The rational thinking side of me essentially agrees with most of what you"ve said. I wouldn"t go so far as to say I need to treat her like shit, but certainly I won"t be diving back in to it like we did the first time around, because when I stopped making her work for my approval and...

    It might be, but I"ll find out. I"m not a hopeless romantic or anything, I don"t think she"s "the one" or some such bullshit. I just know that for whatever irrational reason some part of my subconscious has decided to stay stuck on her and she may reciprocate those feelings, so I"m going to find...

    Yeah, I don"t know how sending her a text one night basically saying "hey we only dated for 2 months and it"s now 6 months later and I still can"t get over you" resulted in that, but that was kind of my take on it as well. I thought it was kind of amusing that when I didn"t respond a couple...

    Sorry, I"m not sure why it"s so confusing. Yes, same Anne that I dated back in April/May.

    No idea what her situation has been since we broke up, as I said the only contact were occasional text exchanges that didn"t ever have much substance. When we broke up she said she realized the other dude was not good for her and she was going to avoid contact with him, so whether that was code...

    So she called me after her meeting and we agreed to meet at a bar for a beer and to watch the Oilers game (fucking Oilers). Overall it went well. When she walked up I didn"t really make any attempt to get off my stool or hug her, she kind of stood there I think wondering what to do before...

    It might just be that for whatever reason she feels a particular attraction to you and not most other men. I know a lesbian couple that were straight before they hooked up and accidentally fell in love with each other (speaking of names, both theirhusbandsat the time were named Jeff, poor guys)...

    haha sheesh, someone"s touchy about their name! I was just kidding around mostly. But seriously, "Robin" for a dude?

    Girls who broke your heart thread

    haha, I thought it was bad enough when couple"s names rhyme. Both being named Erin or Robin or something would be wicked gay. Not to mention that other than maybe Aaron, I can"t respect guys with a "dual use" name.

    Girls who broke your heart thread

    Yeah, I"d been doing the same thing with Anne and overall it was working in terms of feeling good about things. Maybe a month or two after we broke up (so July/August) I was a bit down on things, but kept telling myself that it"ll go away and everything"s cool. And everything WAS cool. She"d pop...

    Heh, I was gonna say that she thinks you"re her "gay-friend". But yeah, maybe her being crazy is more likely. We"ve found it"s very regional, at least Plentyoffish is. Up here it"s actually pretty good. I mean yeah, only one out of ten is something I"d be interested in, but that"s pretty...

    Christ I was just asking for an interpretation of that, because it was quite conspicuous how often she used my name. I almost feel like I"m being condescending if I use a girl"s name often. I"ve posted no detail or info whatsoever about how we met or what has transpired between us and you"re...
