Conceptual Knowledge Vs Perfect Wisdom
I personally think you could maybe be a bit more informative or maybe go a bit more in depth. I have to disagree with Mahaynna culture, as wisdom and understanding aren't two degrees of the same trait, but go hand in hand. Understanding stops at knowing and perceiving what happens in a situation and why. To me wisdom is knowing what you need to do in said situation. As in, if your friend just broke up with a long term partner, then you can understand why it happened, and why they're feeling sad, and maybe even predict what they are going to do/how they will react, but it takes wisdom to know what YOU should do to help them. So wisdom to me is knowing what do to in a situation, while understanding is knowing why and how a situation exists.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Either ask her if she still has feelings for you, or just ask her out. The worst that's going to happen is things might be awkward between you two for a week. I mean, you know what it's like when one of you has feelings for the other already, so clearly it can't be that bad.

I personally say go with the dating first, if you think any of them are worth it. The girls that want sex will still be there, the dating possibilities might disappear.

Done anything awsome lately?
Does helping a friend through relationship problems count? What about letting go of a past relationship? That's two things I've done today.

The Running Thread
Go into a push of position, and bring your butt up. Then have one leg rest on the heel of the other (You should be on the balls of your feet). Try to flatten out your foot on the ground, alternate feet. This is assuming you're talking about you calf?

Skiing/Boarding
30 minutes to a hill, 1.5 hours to a really good hill, 2.5 hours to a mountain. I still have not gone to the mountain yet, which I very much want to do. Sucks that I can't drive until this damn driving centre strike is over, and then I need to convince my parents to let me take their car 2-3 hours away from home, with just me and my friends.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
She could still just think that you don't have feelings for her anymore, since you didn't make any attempts to get her (I'm assuming). Just try it, and if it doesn't work, then maybe there's period of awkwardness for a few weeks, but then things will settle down. There's no real risk, but if it works out and she does reciprocate your feels, you've got yourself a girl If you have feelings for her, try.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
The post's not useless if it helps you. I think the best thing to do is to just not hook up with her any more and tell her you've realized that you'd rather be friends with her (I'm assuming that this is the case).

I just did the unthinkable
The best use to come of it is organizing events. For some reason I just much prefer talking to people using the Facebook messaging system than I do using regular email. It feels more personal. It also has become a pretty good way to share pictures. Really, my only complaint is all of the stupid applications that have flooded the site.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I've realized that the only problem with taking a girl to a movie as a date is the fact that there's an armrest in between the two of you. Gets right in the way of trying to make some sort of physical contact. Luckily I have long arms, so it isn't too much of a nuisance for me. :thumbup:

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
That my friend, is a limiting belief that can only hurt you. I should add that social proof alone won't do it (unless it's lots of social proof, an inexperienced girl, or a combination) but every piece helps. Would me being a magnet for Virgin, No-Social-Life, Uptight Women have anything to do with it? Is there a problem with that? You can still have fun with them, and maybe they just need a relationship to give them the confidence to get out in the world. Also, Iamdan, I can only agree that the alpha male is the one that doesn't need to prove anything to attract others.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
So Girl A is pretty. So what? You've pretty much explained that this is the only thing she has going for her. Stay with your girlfriend. A telling you she loves you is probably her being an overdramatic, jealous teenage girl. Just take the fact that A's jealous of your girlfriend, and that you've found someone better than A. Other than that, ignore A. Just a side note, but who cares what social class someone is from? It shouldn't change the way you feel about them.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
She can't trust me after one month, not six. It is partially because of her dating history, and what I've done. I know it's not going to work unless she magically trusts me again, but I've decided that I'm going to move on even if that happens tomorrow. My dilema is deciding on whether or not to let "something" happen at a party in a couple of weeks, because at the moment I'd say there is a chance of it.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Hmmm. I'd say this is the first time I'm actually asking for advice in this thread rather than just venting. So things just ended between me and my ex-girlfriend. Had to do with trust issues and all that (She's been hurt before, and things I did before we dated made her not trust me. Well, we had gotten to the point where we were telling eachother that we love eachother (I know to some people that isn't much of a big deal, but both of us hold the opinion that love is a word used too lightly). Anyways, the only reason we aren't still together is because of the trust issues. We still have feelings for eachother, she says that if she trusted me, she'd love me. Well, we've decided to move on. She had been trying to trust me for about a month (Things between us have been going on for longer than that, but she found out a month ago), and two weeks ago realized that she just isn't going to be able to trust me again. Now, the problem comes in that I'm having a party in a few weeks, and we're still really good friends (Or are supposed to be, but that's not something I need help with). So she of course is coming. I'm just trying to decide whether or not to let anything happen between us, if it does start to happen. As much as I want it to happen, I don't want to sabotage getting over her. For the record, unless I'm very drunk or we're both sober, sex isn't going to happen, I've decided that for now I'm just not going to let it happen like that with anyone. Basically, this is a decision between having fun, but risking us developing the feeleings we have for each other more, and not having as much fun. The biggest problem about us having stronger feelings for eachother is that if I know she still has strong enough feelings for me, I'm not going to do anything with another girl, as she is someone I really want as a friend, and don't want to hurt. I'd say that the choice is pretty easy, except for 6 months worth of frustration of never having spent any time with her alone, and barely spending any time with her on top of that.

The Running Thread
Run without music. I actually find that music ruins running for me. Really? Unless I'm running with someone else, I hate going for long runs without my ipod. I get bored. For me, I generally have some really scenic running routes, so it's hard for me to be bored. I also enjoy the silence, and just the physical activity in general. I also generally run on unpaved paths, so I need to watch where I'm running. I have never found boredom during a run a problem.

This. Realize that you don't need that person to be happy. Hell, realize that you don't need anyone to be happy, only YOU an make yourself happy. Let it out, then forget about her.

Skiing/Boarding
I love skiing, and plan on going many times this year. The only problem is that getting out to a hill/mountain is really hard for me. The closest ski hill is 45 minutes, and not exactly what I'd call the best. Quite frankly I hope to be getting rails this season, but I can't actually do any real tricks at the moment. I'm kind of wondering whether it's easier to learn spins or rails first, and a good way to do either. I have a mediocre pair of all-mountain skis, and really hope I can get a job soon to pay for lift tickets and maybe new skis.

Your motivations for going fit
I enjoy the physical activity. That really is all the motivation I need. If I didn't enjoy the process, I wouldn't do it.

Make her realize that she makes you happy. Never stop trying to make her happy, and just keep with it. Tell her that you chose her over all the other girls because she makes you happy. But, only do this if you want to, and doing so will mean that you're telling the truth. I pretty much just had to do this a few weeks ago, except that the problem wasn't some incident that happened in her life, it was the fact that she has literally no time for me. She pretty much told me that I could go find another girl, because she could see that there are other girls that want me. I told her there is no way I'm doing that, just because other girls want me, doesn't mean I want them. Really, you just have to make her realize that this is something you want, and that you plan on being there for her.
