Slap yourself in the face and then read this line: It's your best friend's ex. Don't go there.

The one closest to me has a theater and arcade, 40 minutes down the coast there are 2 massive malls right near each other, (pacific fair and australia fair) near a beach with a street mall with clubs, (cavill ave) also has heaps of hotels around. 40 minutes inland is also a national park/rain forest with a popular hang gliding spot. There's a pine forest nearby for 4bying, and brisbane isn't too far away. I like where I live :)

I'm doing x, you should join me. Pick something low compliance that can easily branch off into something else. Helping you shop for something is perfect for it. Assuming you're at a mall you can end up seeing a movie, getting lunch, playing pool, airhockey or minigolf, going back to someone's house for a movie etc. The wording was deliberate for a much more likely yes because it's something you're doing anyway therefore she can safely back out without being rude if she changes her mind. Please don't do this.

Keeping busy and putting effort into what you do, dealing with the [cabbage] life dumps on you well. Also money and sex.

Didn't expect to be on any lists let alone a few of them. <3:

Start a conversation, disqualify yourself, attract, qualify them, comfort, seduce. In a club you need to be loud and high energy. Don't bother with the dance floor when it comes to 'pulling,' because chances are all you''ll get is a grind and a makeout. Expect to be shot down. Expect to literally be told to [bleep] off on occasion when you try and start a conversation with a group. Just keep at it and you'll be a natural. Read my blog, (link in my sig) it has heaps of info. As for the touching I've written about, you can and should do it more because at a club people are in a more social state. As for your situation, I would have escalated if I wasn't friends with the boyfriend, but then I'm a bit of a [bleep]. Actions speak louder than words. When she said what she did, it was so she didn't feel like a cheater because it 'just happened.' If it were to 'just happen' again, (ie you kiss her and escalate) then she would most likely go along with it because she can reason that it wasn't her fault she cheated. On that note, if you want a 1 night stand from a club, focus less on comfort and more on attraction/touching so she doesn't see you as a potential boyfriend and wait for sex. The 1 night stand needs to also 'just happen' so invite her to another club, then to get food, then to your house to check out your awesome fish or something. You don't even need a fish, because you both know the real reason for why she's there. Meanwhile, gftog if you want to keep hanging with her. Otherwise you're probably just going to get more attached and get hurt.

How would you know if sex is overrated if you haven't had it? :s Average sex is definitely overrated, but amazing sex is amazing.

but whhyyyyyy? A date is how people generally get to know each other. Now it looks like she's just making excuses.

Went for an informal interview with a sparky this morning. He spent an hour doing a job that would have taken me 10 minutes, and he didn't even fix the pump. He told me how picky of a boss he is, and explained how he expects some things that I just do anyway without thinking. I was expecting he was going to be similar to a guy I worked for not long ago who needed everything to be absolutely perfect, efficient, and for me to constantly be busy, even if there was nothing to do. I told him I worked for someone who was much harder than him, and that I already had an apprenticeship offer with energex. He then asked me if I was just saying that to make myself look more employable... He spent the rest of the talk trying to sell himself to me, talking up his boring domestic work and telling me he wants an apprentice but might not have enough work for me so I could be at home on minimum wage some of the time. <_<

Is this an ex girlfriend, or a girlfriend on vacation or something? Things aren't looking too great with my new relationship.. I'm getting over her to the point where I'm not really even into the sex, and her being really worried about me losing interest in her makes it worse :( I feel like if I wait a bit longer I'll get attached, though the 'hope I learn to like her' deal didn't work last time :/ I want it to work.. idk what's up. Part of me is thinking I shouldn't 'settle,' but the other part is wondering why my longest relationship has been a couple months because I get bored of everyone so quickly.

I'm not into you at the moment.

You're talking about being teased I gather?

What makes these properties more important than others? What do you mean by "Others"? I've been trying to think of a response but it's a bit hard without that piece. Sapience is just a property. It's more important to humans simply because it makes us different. By others I mean anything. With the logic you used, I can say birds are better than other animals because they can fly. What makes sapience a better property than any other random one?

This. I was having 2 panic attacks a day for weeks and I refused to go on medication because of all the negative effects. Medication can make the situation worse in the long term. In my experience, talking to her about it when she doesn't want to and forcing the issue/adding more stress to it makes it worse. The bigger deal you make of it, the bigger deal it becomes. Be empathetic, but don't let her know that you're freaking out about it. Tell her to research it as much as possible. Read over the information over and over so the correct part of her brain can pick it up. It was one of the things that helped reduce my attacks drastically.

I've said it once or twice here, I often post like an arrogant [bleep] in debate threads because it's more likely to get my views challenged. I like having my views challenged, because it keeps me on my toes and it makes me constantly think about my beliefs, alter them if necessary and keeps me from sticking to them blindly. I could be all passive and start every sentence with "in my opinion," but I find that posts like that get challenged less than the guy acting being a bit more obnoxious and controversial. I'm often the first to remind people that morals are relative. I don't think one set is better than the other. I merely posted my opinion. Find me a pro lifer who is a vegetarian, grows their own food without pesticides, (harvesting machines kill animals) does not buy clothes made from sweatshops, does not slap mosquitoes, and who buys the bare essentials for their survival and donates the rest. I don't think it's a ridiculous stereotype to say that very few of these people who do this by choice exist. Does it matter? It's relative. I just personally find it hypocritical. Do you go out of your way to buy clothes/products not made in sweatshops? If so fine, but if not.. It's fine and dandy to me to be anti sweatshop, but keeping them in business because it's convenient even though you're against it isn't so cool. imo, contributing to less animal deaths than the next guy is no better. No, but death doesn't really concern me unless it effects me. It's psychopathic, but it's how I feel. I'm not the most emotive person in the world, and I have lots of similar thoughts, for example: I don't like that many people are more ok with animals like pigs and ducks suffering than a cute puppy or something. We're hardwired to protect our own species, and we can obviously relate more to people than other animals. This seems to be the emotional reasoning behind the idea that humans are better than other animals. While it makes sense emotionally, logically we shouldn't have any priority over any other animal. In fact, we do more damage to the planet and we kill each other. What makes us so great? I mean I still have the emotive side somewhat. I would be more angry/horrified at a puppy suffering than a cow. It's probably less so than the next guy, and I feel that I shouldn't be like that. I'm not sure where you got that last bit from. I don't believe it and I'm pretty confident that I never posted it. In any case my argument in the suicide thread included having a natural instinct to protect ourselves, not our species. It goes like this basically: me> those who have similar genes> those who contribute to my survival and reproductive value > those who contribute to the survival and reproductive value of those who have similar genes> those who contribute to the survival and reproduction of my race in general> everyone else In the case of killing a fetus, the bolded part shows how I think it's ok. Biologically, it's alive. Science is 100% clear on that fact. What defines thought, anyway? A newly born child has next to no thought process. Most animals have next to no thought process. People with mental disabilities have limited thought processes. It's alive, but not human. (Which doesn't really matter, since I've long given up that argument) What makes these properties more important than others?

"Pro life" is [cabbage]. It's an old hardwired idea of self interest that isn't needed anymore because we are no longer at risk of extinction because we aren't breeding enough. Most "Pro lifers" keep sweatshops in business, contribute to animal deaths, spend money they could use to save lives in third world countries etc. They aren't pro life, they're pro high horse. Also, george carlin makes an excellent point: "Pro lifers say that life starts at conception. I say life started a few billion years ago and it just keeps rolling along." It sure is. Some people live, some don't.

I had to do a nudie run last night at a party because I broke a glass (it was a rule) I was like the only sober person there too :rolleyes:

Yeah.. My first thought anyway was that if his ex wasn't very 'active' then she probably had a good reason...

The morality argument is [cabbage]. Firstly because wheat is murder. Secondly, death and suffering is a part of our culture. The same vegans who pretend they think all life is sacred also keep sweatshops in business, and spend money they could use to donate to save lives in third world countries. It's an easy way to feel morally superior, just as long as they put aside the logic thing for the well being of their smugness. I have no issues with vegans who do it for reasons other than their morals, as long as they don't try and force their diet on me, or give me a dirty look when I'm trying to enjoy a steak. Yeah that would be malnutrition... :rolleyes:

While I agree that pmods should get no benefits over regular players, this is just really petty imo. I guess jagex could take the 'm' out of the crown, but seriously.. is it really that big of a deal? :huh:

Just don't escalate. Women are intuitive - she'll figure it out.

As mentioned, focus on her less attractive qualities. gftog also

As far as I know these aren't allowed anymore, because inappropriate pictures are always posted.

parkway drive is hardcore, but similar to metal core. They're also better than any other bands mentioned imo. killswitch is good too
