re: Smiley Faces

I have a bro/dude/friend that always adds smiley faces to the end of his texts(not always but consistently)...He is like "Yo ill be stopping by later tonight "...it creeps me the **** out

Then again hes prob just trolling all of us(my other friends who are friends with him also), so if thats the case..wp

8 years of social isolation= every girl i see checks me out hard.

i only have one gay friend, but this is him.

and to finish my post run, the best part of that gif is ivey taking out cyril.

I've had more relationships start as one night stands than any other way, you can have your cake and eat it too imo.

I guess that the reason I have for the "lines" I take that are usually I think:
If she is wanting to just hookup at a party, she's not the type of girl I want to date.
Granted, this has changed over time a bit, because it narrows the field so much and because I'd be a hypocrite.

duurrrr, "i'm too lazy to come up with an insult that makes sense, so i'll just say whatever stupid ideas come to my mind."

You're just over generalizing. Just like most guys are hybrids between just wanting hookups and wanting to be in relationships, so are the girls. Their behavior is more stigmatized than ours so they're socialized to behave more "proper", but they for the most part think the same way we do. Because some girl is willing to hook up with you doesn't mean she's hooking up with every other person she meets (though I have come across these girls - luckily for you the other females who know her will have talked **** about her enough that you'll know who she is and what she does before even being in the same room as her), perhaps the stars have just aligned for that night in your favor. Don't shoot down those opportunities when they present themselves.

You also need to realize that every single relationship you will be in, with perhaps the exception of one, will not last. Searching for the perfect person in a sea of horny college kids is absolutely futile imo. Just enjoy the ride imo.

i wouldn't call it laziness. pretty much working with what I've been given here.

Obviously you're right about basically everything, and I know I am overgeneralizing.

I guess in my experience most of the girls that end up wanting to hook up are the sluts though, and it's just not worth it.

Upon further reflection, I think you guys are usually right. I've hugged girls that I'm actively interested in before, but never in that context. It has been when I've been out in a group and just met the girl. I guess I parted with a hug even though she was an active interest.

I'm supposed to meet that hot foreign girl from a couple nights ago today, but it's almost a pain in the ass to have to go meet her. I can't imagine what a pain in the ass it must be for her. At least, though I think I'll be bored, she is a hot chick. She's getting nothing out of this. I'm fairly certain she isn't into me, and she has a boyfriend, so it's just going to be a friends sort of thing.

She's not going to go out of her way to meet up with a stranger, alone, unless she's interested. Relationships end all the time (including hers), and if she is indeed meeting up with strange new GCG alone, you're money baby.

Nice call.

LKJ, I liked your "relationship/hookup/hybrid" list. If I were single, I'd put myself in the hybrid category, as I had my fair share of hookups before CRC and I got together. I was always open to the idea of a relationship, but didn't actively seek one out, as that tends to work out terribly for me.

half a brain? physical attraction has nothing to with socializing. can't believe i actually have to spell that out for you.

i'm in a protect my e-ego mood, so vintage, notice that i said i was trying to post not so much, and not not at all.

lol she flaked...can't say I'm surprised, and can't say I blame her if even I was sort of dreading this meeting. Woulda been easier if she never agreed in the first place though.

I'm studying abroad for one year after this summer and was at an information meeting two weeks ago and met the two other students that are going to the same university as me(2 girls). I have never meet anyone of them before this meeting.

Would it be weird of me to email (only have their mail which the student advisor gave to all three of us) them and ask if they wanna grab a drink and talk about the final application and what we have a head of us after the summer?

Obv not any dating/relationship motives in this just wondering if you guys thought it would be weird.

my point is that it's pretty socially hilarious to just assume that "every hot girl" is checking you out hardcore, and that it wouldn't really be surprising if there was an extreme lack of awareness of the situation if you've been socially isolated for 8 years.

ok. at least there's some logic behind your thoughts. but it's flawed, because i'm not making assumptions, i'm basing it on evidence; on very simple trends -- how many girls look my way, and how long, and how repetitive. and given that girls check out guys that they find attractive regularly, and that i am attractive (based on what ppl tell me, and self assessment) it only makes sense that they'd check me out.

anyway, i'm a loser for arguing with u over this, but i really have nothing going on in my life right now and am a nerd in my spare time so i can't really pass up a chance at an argument.

I think this would be a pretty cool thing to do.

The thing is, 2+2 is the major leagues of Internet forum posting, and sometimes you have to hone your skills in the minors for a bit before you're ready for the big show. Sometimes people don't have the talent yet and after they get that phone call it turns out they're not quite ready for the bright lights, the fans, and the media attention. When you make that phone call to someone, you gotta know if they're ready. And sometimes they are; I think you are, for example. Cam, it appears, was not.

During the day, right?

you didnt really refute anything he said though.. after 8 years of social isolation and minimal contact with girls it is just hard to believe that you have the ability to properly read women. I realise I basically just repeated what TBE said but he made it about as simple and clear as possible. The only way I could think to expand it is by saying that almost all the regs itt are more experienced than you and probably not a single one of us has a 100% accurate read rate.

KG coming over to my place tonight.
Planning to make a move and praying to not make a fool of myself.

What does the K stand for again? Im guessing G is girl?
