Dating is a rather expensive sport if you pay for every first date you could potentially have

welp, tried hitting the most recent tinder girl up again and got one-worded. on to the next one~ not really too phased because she was way taller/bigger than me anyways and I was more doing it for the experience but I'm kinda surprised to get that sort of a reaction when our conversation was pretty interesting I thought. ah well

Just got back from a date at a small hookah place that I'd never been to before. Thought I'd do something new for a change :P There was a nice comfy couch for us to sit next to on while we smoked. Made it easy for me to put my arm around her and rub her back through most of the date. Was on my A-game and pretty much did everything by the book so hopefully she's down for a day2. We'll see.

 

I'd love to have more dates at that place but the date cost me $20 which is unacceptable lol

Aaaand she's coming to my place...

So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends.

 

RPG is constantly dealing with psycho exes.

Muggi reminds us of the joys of polygamy.

Saq is totally oblivious to how much chicks dig him.

I strike out every other week.

Kalphite wages a war against the friend zone.

Randox pretty much stays rational.

Etc, etc

I know that song, I have heard it before and I even had to sing it in Russian class. Doesn't mean I understand nearly anything, but still.

 

 

Aaand we were "just friends" for exactly a day.
Game on.

 

Planned on watching a movie.

Couldn't even open my laptop.

Success?

 

Unfortunately she couldn't stay the night, she has a führer-like grandma and she promised to be home...

Long time no see here . . . I'm doing the thing where I pop up because I'm bored/am recalibrating my life and I log in to TIF again.

 

So I just got out of a long term relationship with a girl that started over a year ago as a consistent hookup, evolved into feelings while remaining non-exclusive because she was studying abroad for a semester, and ended in one summer + semester of monogamous relationship.  I graduated last year and she's a year younger, so we were able to stay together because I got a job working at the school as an assistant in the art department.  Anyway, that's over now, and unlike my previous relationship in which I basically nuked the girl out of my life, we are still actually best friends and it has not been bad at all so far. (Plenty of time for that to change, but c'est la vie.)

 

So now I'm rocking the single life and having a minor moral crisis about a girl in one of the classes I help with. I'm basically an after-hours supervisor so all the students can work safely with the tools and equipment, but I'm also a sort of unofficial teaching assistant. I don't have any influence over grades or anything but I dig this chick and I really don't want to make it weird for the rest of the semester. I've pretty much already decided to go for it anyway and am mainly posting about it because it's much more fun to have an audience for these things. Onward!

If I were in your shoes I'd do the same thing and feel like it was success as well; that being said, I can't help but feel that continuing things with a girl that said "let's just be friends" a day earlier won't end well.

Buying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.

Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:

your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupine

The only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

That's just it though. A woman constantly changing her mind on whether or not she wants to be in a relationship with you just sounds terrible.

 

Although as I said, if I were in your shoes I'd do the same thing, so just try and learn from it I guess.

That's one of the reasons why I think monogamy is a bad idea :P

Honestly? Here's what I think the problem is:

 

The amount of effort and change people normally put into relationships < the amount of effort and change you put into making polyamory work < the amount of effort a successful monogamous relationship needs.

 

I've read a little bit on making (monogamous) relationships work, and there's a surprisingly large overlap between what I've seen there and what I've seen you say, muggi. Mostly in the realm of needing to improve yourself and making decisions based on a higher principle then emotions.

True love can be achieved in monogamy, but to find 2 people that actually genuinely care about each other so much that they're willing to be accepting of each other no matter what life throws at them is simply a character trait that modern day society is lacking

Thankfully, we don't have to be limited by modern day society.

 

I sometimes feel like half the damn problem is wedding ceremonies and "they lived happily ever after" stories.

I remember a study once that found monogamy correlates with higher IQ. Just saying.

There's a myriad of possible reasons for that though. Didn't you post an article talking about Muslim inbreeding causing a drop in IQ? Well polygamy is also accepted in Islam, those two may correlate without having a direct link. And I'd say that in higher classes of society (which shoud also correlate with IQ up to a point), polyamory would be much more frowned upon, because people's actions are much more under scrutiny there.
