It"s funny how the holidays work. I"m not really one to be all sentimental and go out of my way to get in touch with people I haven"t seen in awhile etc, it just strikes me as insincere really. But suddenly Christmas day I heard from about half a dozen exes or girls that I dated briefly etc...

You"re surprised a thread about dating/heartbreak on a MMOG website has turned in to a min/max discussion? Really?

So I got a text from Nicole Sunday afternoon. We hadn"t texted at all, just messaged on Facebook, so that was unexpected. Her: Hi *my name*!! Its nicole, my mom told me that u were out of town this wk/d, I just wanted to thank you for the invite to the game, but can"t come, as I have a get...

^for some guys it"s a place to vent, others a place to seek advice, others to provide a running commentary of their own stupidity, but yeah soap opera works too.

I agree for the most part, however at the same time from her perspective I can completely understand being reluctant to fully commit on the spot. I had literally just met her and we"d chatted for no more than 5 minutes, so I can see why she"d hedge her bets to give it some more thought. At the...

Well hilariously enough, after handing her the bag we started chatting, it came up that her little rat dog had just had a baby rat, and she asked if I"d like to see it. I was like sure okay, took off my shoes and followed her directly in to her bedroom where it was located in a little box on the...

Round here a "steak sandwich" is basically a steak on a piece of garlic bread. It"s pretty much universal. Regardless, there"s a pretty obvious difference between a steak and a burger patty, however many pieces of bread there are.

Would an iPhone do? heh, sidestory: walked in to my friend"s bar last night, and there was a new smoking hot hostess. I of course immediately inquire as to her story. My bud says that she had been modeling in Europe etc but recently returned home and was new to serving etc. Apparently they had...

le sigh

You fuckers are quick I edited that shit within 30 seconds. Seriously though, please don"t be jackasses about it.

Backstory, minus the ridiculousness that followed: I messaged the mom last week asking if she"d passed my info on to her daughter, or if I should just look her up on Facebook. Mom said she"d let her know I"d be getting in touch, and gave me her phone number. I elected to stick with Facebook...

Well, if there"s foreplay first! Herpes is a bitch, no doubt, but don"t try to play off your massive, weird phobia as some sort of health decision. Don"t worry, I"m roiding up as we speak. This derby is gonna be mine.

Not making fun of you Brad, but I really cannot fathom a progression of intimacy and romance, whether with a "good" girl you"re dating or a bar slut you"re just trying to bang, that does not include at some point along the way kissing on the lips. And I"d wager every other human being on the...

meh

Response to her Fatness below: Spoiler Alert, click show to read: A - I"ve never said that money is what defines me, nor what dictates success. Go read the post I made to Grobbee in his "now what?" thread. Everyone has their own definition of success. I don"t think I"ve even figured out what...

lol, so which is it: raging arrogant overconfident asshole, or nerd crippled by lack of self confidence? Make up your minds gents! I wish I had a decent physique, I"m at least 5-8% body fat away from a six pack.

^thanks, good advice.

Boring corporate restructuring bullshit ahoy! Just skip this post if you don"t give a fuck. Spoiler Alert, click show to read: It"s somewhat complicated. Basically we did the valuation of the company with KPMG (who only provide a range from which we chose a price, this step is required for...

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: lol, I shouldn"t take the bait any further but hell, why not? I didn"t inherit anything. I have bought my dad out fair and square for fair market value. We even hired KPMG to do the valuation. Would someone off the street have the same opportunity? Of course...

^Seethe was very careful to point out that you put your son first consciously, but that doesn"t necessarily mean you actually are doing so. I hadn"t even thought of the son angle, but he brought up some excellent points that to be quite honest you didn"t really address at all, other than to say...

My post wasn"t intended to be aggressive towards you, so my apologies if it came across that way. As far as the "I"m back!" thing, if that"s the one you"re talking about, that was perhaps a bit flippant. However as I had said in past posts regarding Anne and not being able to move on, I thought...

Holy fuck, I came here looking for some advice on a situation to which this thread supposedly revolves around, get jumped on by a bunch of jackasses, explain and defend myself, and I"m looking for validation? I have plenty of validation outside of these boards, I don"t need more here. Fuck...

Extremely busy with work, out of town on weekends, incredibly picky about the opposite sex, not overly concerned about sex for sex"s sake, the list goes on and on. And yes, no question that I"m not particularly good at the whole dating thing, I have said so repeatedly in this thread. What the...

And because I am a kind god, daughter (profile pic, shrunk a bit): Expiration has passed!

Why the fuck not? Is the only way to meet women going to bars to pick them up? You can"t meet them through friends or family? Holy fuck you guys honestly are ridiculous, all I was asking for was a bit of advice or ideas on how to approach it tactfully without making it weird or awkward for...

There was a group of 9 of us, most of whom I already knew, and we went through a week of hell together. What"s so creepy about adding each other on Facebook? The son"s moving to the mountains and I fully intend on crashing his couch this winter and we both are BMW/car/motorcycle enthusiasts. I...

Alrighty, so here"s a request for strategerizing. On my trip to Peru, there was a semi-cougar along as well as her 21 year old son (pretty cool guy, I guess he won a couple hundred k in a lottery at 19 so he"s more or less spent the last two years loving life). The cougar took a liking to me...

I wouldn"t say he"s anything special in the pantheon of movie stars, of course not. Or TV stars, whatever. Regardless, the guy"s worth tens of millions of dollars and most likely doesn"t go around picking up just any girl in a bar, or corporate box, as the case may be.

*shrug* She"s wired like a guy in a lot of respects in terms of her sexuality. That doesn"t mean she doesn"t also maintain relationships. As I said, her last boyfriend she dated for 5+ years exclusively. And as I mentioned, she"s never hidden (whether she tried to or not) that she"s had feelings...

Hi! So first and quickly, I have not heard back from Anne since the perfunctory "You"re Welcome" text I sent before leaving town. I"m sure the next random text is only weeks away. So myself, three buds and one of their girlfriends went over to Diane"s place on Saturday. She made a phenomenal...

I wouldn"t say I make a "big deal" out of that kind of shit. In real life anyways. I post a lot of it here for my and everyone"s entertainment if anything. If that gives the impression that I"m making a huge deal out of miniscule shit, my bad. Where have I claimed otherwise? I am as aware of my...

Actually, I wouldn"t say it"s "tough." Like I said, I"m mostly over her, at this point I"d say the feelings I have for her aren"t really any different than what might develop after a first date with a new girl, if a connection was made. I"m not pining away my days, longing to see her or anything...

Let the experiment begin! Texted her as instructed. I just have to resist the urge for 24 hours then I"m out of texting range for a week, together we can do this!

She"s baaaaaaaaaack (Anne): "I love Metric. Thank you so much for taking me to the concert! " A friend back in April or May won tickets to a special acoustic show they played, couldn"t use them, so traded them with me for a couple Oilers tickets and I took her. She"d not really listened to...

Brad, just wondering if you"ve discussed the whole aversion to kissing thing with your counselor at all?

Happened to me a lot a few years back. Went through a string of half a dozen girls I dated, either for a few weeks or a couple for 3+ months, and didn"t really have a connection with any of them. I felt the same way as you. With the couple that went for a few months, I liked them on a personal...

Bullshit. I made a post, and so did several others that were very reasonable and not of the dog pile type. Maybe you missed them, or just got caught up in the other ones, I don"t know. But there"s half a dozen posts directed at you that were reasonable.

Dabamf, I"m not trying to jump on you (and most of the responses save for a few aren"t either), but as others are saying your reaction to people"s "advice" is somewhat telling in the same way my reactions have been in the past. You give me shit for not listening, and you"re doing the exact same...

Minor point, but that"s not what I meant to say and I don"t think I really did. Lots of other guys did for sure though, and I agree to some extent. I was just kind of saying "hah, welcome to my world!" basically. And I agree with what Dabamf just recently said as well, there is most definitely a...

I wouldn"t want to bias your situation with my experiences, but I thought and said many of the same things you have been lately about Anne, and we all know how that turned out. Just make sure you don"t get ahead of her, and in fact stay a couple steps behind.
