Kenny, you deserved that imo.

that wasn't me. from the http://failblog.cheezburger.com/ website.

but this is from me. just a quick question about how I should handle the "can't this week" thing. do i mention it and say that next week sounds good? should i suggest a specific day for next week? or ignore it and come back to that topic in a few days while continuing the convo?

Me: "Just got back from the concert. It was ridiculously awesome; they are definitely one of those groups that are better live than in the studio. First off, I was in the third row. Second, it was so cool how they remixed everything. The second song sounded a bit off to me, slower than I had remembered it. Then the next song was completely remixed and I finally figured out what they were doing . They even were singing their lyrics to the beat of "Gold Digger" at one point. Definitely gives a reason to go back to another show to hear some more remixes. Hope your brother enjoyed it as well. Do you hang out with him here in Berlin very often? Is he your only sibling?

That's sounds like a pretty good poker career, especially ending on a good note. And even I win less than 1 out of 3 times .

We should grab a drink sometime next week. I'm sure with your good, "American" (and kind of German ) taste in movies, we'd find a few things to laugh about over a beer or two. Maybe Wednesday evening?"

Her:

"Hey,

Hope you are fine and had a nice weekend! Sorry for my late reply. This weekend I had a farewell party, a birthday BBQ gardenparty and a touristguide Sunday. So far I survived but still a bit exhausted.

My brother told me exactly about the same gold digger rmx. I saw Seeed live 5 years ago and it was really amazing!
Yeah its better to end a career before it gets worse. Thats also why many musicians kill themself at 27. And like this I can always look back and b proud of myself.
I live together with my bro and another friend. So we hang out quite often and have some common friends here. He is my only brother. Do you have any siblings?

Actually, this week may not b the best time to meet up. I have a friend coming tomorrow who will stay until Friday. On Wednesday we are cooking with other friends and on Thursday another friend will come with her boyfriend cause they have a flight from Berlin to Marocco and we will go out for dinner. Maybe next week is better."

I really don't get why you wouldn't ask for her #. Now you find yourself in a tough spot for continuing contact while her friend is in town.

Anyway, to answer your question, I'd just put it in her court for letting you know when she is free next week to get together.

Something like "Let me know when you're free next week and we'll see if we can figure something out".

It's now been over 2 months since I started dating my current gf who I met through OKC. Crazy to say that because it feels like so much longer. Everything really could not be better. We're still head over heels for each other the same way we were when we first met, and have probably (*definitely) gotten closer over the past 2 months than most couples do in 6-12.

Just wanted to thank this thread again for giving me the initial push to give OKC a try, and also provide some motivation for everyone else still on the hunt.

She misspelled Morocco. Probably best to tell her to F off.

For reals tho--ask for her digits.

It's cute that you actually think this is true.

This. Except I would probably use the word "adorable" but "cute" is OK.

i was thinking the exact same thing. ah to be young and in love.

If you guys aren't being sarcastic--why are you hating on him for writing that?

sorry, i forgot my [/sarcasm]

i send only good vibes to everyone itt

Hi, looking for some advice on texting. Met a girl at a bar on Friday, got her number and BS'd a bit since and set up a date... for after Labor Day (basically over a week from today because of vacation/schedules).

I don't want to seem too desperate / needy, not sure how often to be texting a chick I met once. We've had some decent exchanges and a plan to meet again, just curious what line most people would take.

Thanks!

text her your thoughts and feelings at least once an hour

for real though there is no need to talk everyday, text her in a few days if she doesnt initiate if you want

i actually composed several poems ranging from haikus to sonnets... was planning on releasing one every other day?

but seriously normally a couple days would be fine to go on radio silence, just i feel like a week seems like a longish time. shrug

i know there isnt an exact formula, im just getting back at it and am / was a rookie

No sarcasm. I meant what I said -- it's cute (or adorable for the straight guys that won't use the word cute) to see couples that think they're more special than all the others when really they're almost certainly not. I don't know why I feel the need to bring happy people down to reality, but I'm sure he can handle it.

B,

Yeah, a little contact in between is good imo. Some easy excuses to send a couple messages between now and then. Assuming your date is next Tuesday, I'd do something like:

Thursday: "How's your week? Mine has been brutal but I'm excited only one more day til I get to hit the beach for three days, can't wait!" (I'd prob only send that if I were going to the beach, though)

Monday: "Hope you had a great time at the lake! I wish this long weekend was longer, though... Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow. Want to meet at 8pm at x?" (I'd prob only send that if she went to the lake, though)

Alternatively:

"i actually composed several poems ranging from haikus to sonnets... was planning on releasing one every other day?"

Just release a line at a time every few hours!

For everyone's sake I'll keep my poems on the down low for now.

I think that's some good advice tho Diablo and what I was leaning toward

hopefully is alternate plan is what youre doing

Yes.

Or a chance to bring over a movie and some "medicine"

LOL A little late to the party.

Already updated a few pages back, but we ended up going out the next night and it went just as well as the first date. Already have plans for this weekend and will be spending all day Saturday with her.

1 for 1

She was actually better looking in person, 7 face with a 9 body (she figure skates competitively) and she's a Quebecoise! The first two girls I met were from Montreal, but anglophone, so no cute accent.

I met her in front of the subway at 6:15, walked her to a bar where we had 1 beer, convo was already turning towards racy topics after about half an hour. She's hungry so I suggest a Thai place and we get dinner (I pay) followed by ice cream (she pays) and we walk to a park at ~8:00. Ice cream melts kinda quickly so our faces and hands are a bit sticky, but luckily I grabbed some extra napkins and we both freshen up by a water fountain and find a bench. We make out for about an hour and a half, she's touching my junk outside my pants (super impressed obv), but unfortunately she has to work in the morning so I walk her back to the metro and she heads home. Went about as well as I could have hoped for a weekday date.

Next up Tuesday is a 1st date with a girl from California (ok looks but seems really cool) and Wednesday a first date with another Quebecoise (super bland personality online, but probably the best body I've seen on OKC). The 29 year old Quebecoise from tonight will get the first priority for weekend 2nd date (she already talked about taking me to a jazz restaurant) and I'll try and fit the 32 year old teacher in for a 2nd date somewhere.

had my first successful (I think) tinder convo. she said she works in jewelry design, so i asked if there was anything she designed i could wear. i said id probably look great in a tiara. she said she knew where i could find one - burger king. so she said she would take me out to get my tiara/crown. i sent my # and said to text me and we'd set it up, since she said she was going to bed now.

worst case scenario, i get a free kids meal from burger king. and the crown.

wtf, I've almost entirely lurked, haven't responded to a single inbound message (small sample size), yet OKC has me as a green dot?
