I (as you've all noticed by now) don't learn lessons (or anything really) until I experience them first hand. I say turn the stove on, leave him in the kitchen and see what happens. Maybe he won't touch it. Maybe we need to burn ourselves a few times before we realize there's an off button.

a misandrist libertarian (Lang). Honestly, dude, you've taken your usual brand of humor and upped the ante lately. I love laughing like a buffoon when I catch up on the Relationship and Today threads, especially when my initial intention was to rant about stupid crap.

To me, it's all about happiness. If The_Gabe is really happy - leave him be. He's happy. Don't take that away from him. When it becomes an issue, then we're hear to discuss his options. But for now, he knows what he wants and he's going to learn from it when the consequences role out, whether they be good or bad. Natural sex is the best kind (no that's not a condom joke). Planning for it isn't nearly as fun as the unspoken expectation and achievement. Sexting/phone sex before a first date improves your odds like 100 fold. And god is it awesome.

Rave sucked, I had 1 beer that cost me $7, I'm broke as hell, have zilch as far as gas in my tank and I still have to take a midterm tomorrow after work. I hate everything.

Good stuff Gabe. Stick to your guns.

Worked all day. Raving soon. No drugs this time. I promise.

My chick logic kicked in when I realized no one has been validating my posts about my own stupidity because no one cares, and thus to meet the approval of the group I must change my actions to once again become interesting to the community. Push/Pull/ignore works. And apparently I have a girl brain. @Gabe It's your choice, and if you feel in 5 years time that you'll stand by that decision than go for it. Personally I think waiting is kinda 'meh' because you're only going to be as young and pretty as you are right now in this very moment. Plus - practice makes perfect, and it's kinda like wasting valuable practice time if you dig? But hey, no need to rush it. Rushing things can often muck it all up.

Be chill Don't be unchill

oh shittttt I remember i_love_burritos! I can't remember why, but I absolutely do haha

Girl logic is so dumb. Especially the one's that think themselves princesses

And here I am in Jersey all by my lonesome. There was a TIFer an hour or two north of me, but I don't think he's around much anymore :/

d'aww I made someone's list <3 You wouldn't happen to be adrenal would you? y_guy changed his name, as did istolethepie and a few others. I'd say almost half of your list is still around though :) Today I was stupid and went to see my latest crazy. I'm going to her party on Saturday, but i swear I'm done after that. I don't even know why or how I managed to be around her today. She makes me far to angry to keep around any longer. I've already told everyone I'm done with it, I just can't seem to stick to it. But I'm working on it.

Its scandalous because the content downloaded was female on female (and some sources say there were also contents of transgender endeavors). Also sexualizing the church always ends ugly. So I'm basically going to remark on why it's a scandal and why people can't handle things when sex is involved.

Now kiss.

Long hair is far sexier, but I've seen some girls rock the punk-cut and/or mohawk. I get pissed at girls vaguebooking at me without actually talking to me about what they want. I'm not a god damn mind reader.

Use your anger, Luke ... today I woke up way eariler than I should have and spent most of the day really pissed off at the ever piling loads of pre-finals school work. I have 5 classes and like 8 major projects I gotta deal with in the next couple days. And I'm broke. And that's stressful as hell cause I had to backpay the government $1100 in taxes. And I can't stop thinking about my most recent crazy ex. And that's not helping anything when I'm trying to focus on school. I have like 3 group projects, and meeting with people in a commuter college is stressful as hell, especially when I barely know anyone I'm working with. I swear, for a 101 level theater class, it's one of the most annoying classes I've ever taken. Not to mention I have to see a play and analyze it by next week. And read "Waiting for Godot" and re-interpret with a whole new screen play, stage set, lighting, directoral intention and costuming. Cause that's not way too much work to just tack on to the end of the syllabus. Hate that professor. Then I got to psychoanalyze the reasoning behind the religious parallels of finding God and being abducted by aliens, which sounds cool...but Jesus it's complicated. Oh, and has anyone heard about how the Vatican got caught pirating porn? I'm trying to do my presentation in my psycho-sex class on that, but I'm trying to decipher if it's a rumor or truth. No major news stations have picked up on it yet, but the internet seems to be running rampant with it.

I like this Brent fella. Kinda. He's interesting. I made another bad decision and now I'm talking to my original ex about my new ex to compare and contrast notes on the crazy. All is peaceful though, I think we're both finally at a level of sanity where we can be civilized and normal. I just don't ever want to meet her fiance. EDIT: ended up talking to her til 3am. Things got a little uncivil, and I may have told her some things I shouldn't have. So now she's mad at me. Which is good. Because it'll throw her back in the arms of her fiance, which prevents me from relapsing into her. But we were getting along good for a while. She gets me better than most. I told her I made her hate me to help me get over her (truth). So we'll see where that lands me in a few months when she comes up to visit her friends (who happen to be my friends as well). But I've gained some perspective. The bane of my existence and behavior seems to be to make sure I don't relapse back into my ex. I want to experience everything in life and be happy which is all fine and dandy, but it occurred to me that it's all a big distraction from even attempting to figure out how I feel about her. When I was on better terms with my 'latest crazy' it all got brushed to the side and nothing else mattered. She(new) was the experience I wanted. But now she's not. So I'll drink up with my friend's and party and smoke and do more crap that my ex(old) hates that makes me happy. But now I'm beginning to wonder...does it actually make me happy, or does assuring myself I won't relapse back to my ex make me happy? Is it possible it's both?

From what I understand, chicks also dig people who are not needy. Acting with the goal of getting a date implies that you care about the end result. You can still show you're confident without being super upfront with her. I think it's plausible, maybe even likely, that Brent's method works, but it's self-contradictory. You can't be indifferent and still want sex. Literally, indifferent means neither outcome is better to you. It's deeply unscientific and it needs a good dose of logic, but it works, so that doesn't actually matter that much. So I think to a degree you have to act it out, at least at the beginning; it is about tricking yourself. I'm not sure I followed your commentary. Acting confident -> ask direct -> get date? (given you can fake confidence and girl is interested) Actual confident -> ask direct -> get date. (given girl has interest) Acting aloof (actual confident) -> ask indirect -> get date? (girl may be unappeased by falsehood of act) Acting aloof (faking confident) -> ask indirect -> get date? (same) did I get it right?

I encourage you to play to your strengths. Gain some confidence and make it your strength. Success is the best high in life. Better than drunk, weed, acid, coke and whatever other nonsense I can say first hand haha. You got this. Know that you got this. And you got this. Just OWN it.

nah he's from the legit side of her life, part of the party throwing business she co-owned. She's gone solo now, but she still hires him on a constant basis because he's one of the few people in the scene with a decent head on his shoulders. I met him and didn't even know they dated. He was actually not a bad dude.

Some girls hate chasing guys. Others love it. There's very little clue as to which is which, but it's not impossible to pick up on. The girl's I "chase" are usually the one's that hate chasing but find themselves doing it far too often. I come in with my Prince Charming routine and blow their minds. it's not even "game" really, it's just what comes natural. This unfortunately is a magnet to crazy apparently...so be warned. As for the movie as first date material - we've had this debate a dozen times before muggiw. I'd just like to reiterate that it's not always a bad idea. It does depend on the bond between the couple, and what type of people they are. I've used movie as a first date (for girls I want to be in a relationship with) and my stats are good. Hell the last one we ended up fooling around instead of watching the film because Burt Wonderstone wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Before that I went to see 21&over which ended in just a hook up and later heavy sexting. It really depends on the people involved on the date.

Saq, you claim people know you as this chill ass buddah type, a mature figure the youngins' looked up to, but now you're spitting rants like you're still in middle school. We don't grasp the situation fully because you refuse to elaborate on it. We're all here for you, but you gotta open up and actually talk about it, not just vent off random spits of rage. You've all seen me blow up in this thread about one thing or another, but most of you have heard me do it long enough that you kind of get it (and disapprove of it for the most part :P ). There's nothing wrong with ranting and venting on here, but do us the kindness of at least trying to let us understand what's happening instead of losing your head. The internet has this magic ability to backspace the words you think before you cast them to the world. Take a breath and think for a second before you hit that post button. Relax. Think about what you're saying and doing and reflect on it. I can get real emotional up in here, too but vaguebooking is not helping you or us, and you won't get the responses you're looking for. Your girl humiliated you, alright now we get it. But the mature thing to do is just let it the hell go. It happened, it's over. The best revenge you can get is simply moving on. If you claim the buddah name, at least do the title proud. Today I went to school, chilled, got called by my latest piece of crazy a couple times, talked about some stuff. Turns out she's super not over her ex who happens to be her business partner. I may not have ever stood a chance to begin with. It's all very confusing, I'm just finding it very hard to put it behind me. I don't have the heart to give up on those I care for.

I'm going to step in and disagree out right. Chicks dig confidence right? Don't [kitty] foot around her available presence and straight up ask her if she'd like to come with you to get coffee. I'm going out on a limb and assuming she does have some interest in you. if you can talk to her in passing consistently, you shouldn't have a huge issue talking to her about whatever over a cup of coffee or whatever it is you're into (and for the love of god, if you've never gone to a coffee place before don't ask her to join you for a cup of coffee - PLAY TO YOUR STRENGTHS). Asking a girl to hang out and talk shouldn't be any more difficult than it is asking one of your dude friend's to come hang out. Asking a girl on a real date takes a little more chutzpah, but as I said - with confidence it isn't so hard. Most girls are dying to be asked out in a legitimate manly manner. The coffee cup scenario is your chance to guage how into you she is. If things are looking good (she's smiling, playing with her hair, giving you googly eyes, she's touching you back) than ask her out on a real date. And don't wuss it. "How would you like to see X movie next weekend, we could put all the other couples to shame". Alpha as [bleep].

An "assault" weapon is just a name the media tagged guns to scare people. All weapons are just weapons and trying to regulate the functionality of them for civilian use is not a good idea. Something can be said for the US's desire to give Libya guns to rebel against their evil government, but then they try to take their own civilian's guns away. While I don't want every civilian to have a gun, I do believe that it's our right to bear arms (and arm bears ;) )

Calm yourself there Saq, sheesh. Want to talk about it?
