Pallando will return in "Never Say Never Again"

[brawndolicious]

So hey, I may be going out on a date this week. Welp.

It's all right to be nervous as long as you don't get really self-conscious and weird. And don't pick at your beard constantly when you get jittery or awkward (if you still have one).

[chronovore]

The Czech* agreed to a date. Now let's see whether I can deposit that Czech (I don't know what that means[answer is no anyway]).

*she looks like a computer-generated composite made from a database of Czech porn stars.

Little chance the Czech felt a spark. I might as well be Marian Hossa.

:'( :'( :'(

[Mupepe]

Yep.  If she's interested she will let you know.  I'd drop it if I were you.  Oh well.

[Robo]

The details are what this thread exists for.  If you're not going to slut shame, then don't post at all, chump.

[Mupepe]

The gist of it is that this girl and I had some interactions where everything that she actually said indicated that she wanted to go out again, but her actions indicated the exact opposite.

I went ahead and sent an email basically picking up where our last interaction left off as though I were completely oblivious to the fact that we haven't talked in two weeks. This time I can honestly say it was fire and forget. If she gets back to me with a yes answer, great. If she writes back saying she doesn't feel the spark, great. If she never replies, great.

You sent an email after your last post on it?  smh

[Polari]

He was doing so well.

[T234]

Trouble in paradise. My ladyfriend stole buds out of my pocket while I was asleep. When I was gonna smoke the VAST majority of it with her. Goddammit, bitch, it don't matter how much of it you've seen me with, I don't care. I DO NOT TOLERATE THIEVERY. Were it a man, I woulda beat them until I couldn't anymore.

I just screamed "I AIN'T NO GODDAMN SAM ROTHSTEIN!" and left forever. Serious MDMA binge for the ages incoming. 

[Polari]

What? She stole some buds. Like to take away with her or just to smoke while you were napping? Because if it's the latter you're a tight shit distinguished mentally-challenged fellow.

[Howard Alan Treesong]

You went to the mall.

That's like teenager central.

I went to go to Foot Locker and get some food! It's not my fault

sometimes your feet feel good and you want to celebrate with a new pair of shoes from Foot Locker

[T234]

Like to steal. There was a goddamn humidor with 50 blunts of 25 different strains sitting right on the table. And it was about $175 worth of weed she took.

The part that pisses me off was the fact that if she had asked, I'd have given it to her. And she knew that. I gave her 8 different 8ths of the best fucking weed I'd ever seen for her birthday.

[Polari]

Oh yeah that is fucked up.

[brawndolicious]

I wish I had pockets that big.

[Flannel Boy]

* Flannel Boy realizes he has too much in common with GS.

Sorry to hear that, T234. Your reaction is understandable.

[Barry Egan]

* Flannel Boy realizes he has too much in common with GS.

Awesome-O and Malek should date.

[Shadow Mod]

The traits we have in common are traits that lots of guys have.

Then what's your excuse?

;p

[Rufus]

Besides, I sent one email after being out of town for like five days when the last thing she said when we actually spoke was "Yeah, let's touch base next week and hang out." If she responds with something like "Lol, no, I didn't actually mean that, didn't you get the hint?" then I'll just move on.

You can't expect that though. A lot of people are wishy washy and expect others to just get the hint somehow so they don't have to say anything overtly confrontational.

[Shadow Mod]

I don't know why this has to be said, but I feel like I have to say it, if a girl/woman is really interested in you and not playing games then you shouldn't have to go out of your way to keep the contact up with her. She should be maintain just as much if not more contact with you.

[Rufus]

B) It's not as good as you think it will be. If you have annoyed another person so much that they are LETTING YOU KNOW IT then you have gone way way too far already.

This. At best, you look like a needy fool. At worst, like a psycho stalker. If she doesn't reciprocate it's time to cut your losses and move on.

[Shadow Mod]

And here's a post that does contribute. You're probably right. Oh well. She's free to ignore my casual and not at all stalkery message if she wants to. It's the only one I'll send.

I know it has to be hard and I haven't gone through this bullshit myself but seeing the beginning of my relationships through my scope, I was really into the guys I was communicating with probably moreso than they were. So when I see a guy trying so hard to maintain communication with a flighty chick I just want to tell him it's not worth it.

[Shadow Mod]

Again, you're right, but one email in two weeks != trying hard. Thanks for the advice though.

Well trying harder than she is obviously.

Come up to visit me in NY, Electric Zoo is next weekend and you'll be in good company should you choose to partake in an MDMA binge.

[Mandark]

I'll take up for GS a bit here.

Adults in a dating situation shouldn't be so conflict-averse that they avoid a brief bit of potentially hurtful honesty.  If you've gone out with someone and said encouraging things to them, but now they want to keep it going and you want to end it, then the grown-ass thing to do is tell them directly, rather than ducking them and assuming they'll get the hint at some point because gosh

Which isn't to say you can expect people to always act how they should, or that you don't need to learn to interpret passive-aggressive (non-)communication as a dating and life skill (I wouldn't have made that call, but at least it wasn't a letter!).  But that doesn't mean the way she handled it was totally kosher, or what we ought to expect from people, women, or ourselves.

This is what I imagine Malek's date conversation to be like.

[Mandark]

Malek's dick is busy breaking the glass ceiling that is the Half Your Age Plus Seven rule.  Whatever he's doing is working well enough.


edit: The main difference between this and the Fit Girl Saga being that FG let Malek know she wasn't interested.  I think you have an obligation to tell someone why you don't want to go out with them again, but you don't have an obligation to give them a detailed justification of your decision.

What if you've had sex?

If I hadn't ate a bunch tonight I would. I imagine me coming to NYC would be wild.

[Rufus]

You do read my posts, right?

Not the one you neutered later. I just saw a list of events but didn't read it. If what I said doesn't apply in this situation I apologize for talking past you.

Yeah, well, they are.  I've heard of marriages getting broken up via text messaging.

Most people are conflict-averse because they don't want to deal with the ugliness face to face or to give an explanation that is shitty (ie, "I found some newer, better dick to ride on.  Go away.") and would sound shitty if said out loud.  So it's best (to them) just to duck and hide or send a couple of text messages and end it that way.

[Van Cruncheon]

god i love this thread

[Steve Contra]

I'm not even sure why it's called RELATIONSHIPS anymore.  It should just be CONSTANT REJECTION: The thread of your life not knotted with anyone

[Mandark]

And thank God for it.  Listening to people talk about how happy they are in a relationship is like listening to them tell you about their fantasy team, a weird dream they had, or their motorcycle.

[Human Snorenado]

People are scared to post their successes because of The Business.

Eh.  I just come from a school of thought that other than close friends, that shit is private.  I may ask a weird random question/post a humblebrag (like when I was going on a couple of dates/nailing a 21 year old) but by and large, you guys don't get to know my shit because I don't want you to, and I have people IRL that I trust with that shit.  Also, when I'm drunk I'll post crazy shit on social media and then delete it when I sober up, so there's that, too.

I understand that not everyone is the same and some people might need/want to bounce ideas off other people here, vent, etc.  Which is perfectly acceptable.

Also, if everyone was a former soldier (vag-magnet) in great shape (further vag-magnet) that dressed well (yet FURTHER vag-magnet) then they'd probably be as successful as The Business, too.

...well, not bebpo, but whatever.

Come on man. Give 'em some names. BF's first gf was a scooter named Jessica.

[Positive Touch]

a scooter

 

[Mupepe]

I named my motorcycle Gipsy Danger. 

I don't talk about my relationship in here because it's pretty damn stable.  This seems just like a place where you talk about new accomplishments or horrible failures.

[Bebpo]

 



Thanks for everything guys & gals. 


Will be posting more in the gaming side in the future.

[Flannel Boy]

For those who enjoy schadenfreude:

I don't think we really had that spark though

Dat spark!

[nudemacusers]

Your response should be, "babe give me 10 minutes and I'll short-circuit your pants".

[Flannel Boy]

Awkward: a woman from my charity law class viewed my okcupid profile.

Is this the new youngun?

Maybe I don't know the rules of okc, but why is this awkward? Maybe she was hoping to catch a glimpse of some selfies.

No. She is still jerking me around instead of jerkin' me off.

This was the government worker from Sunday.

And that's what makes it awkward.

[Human Snorenado]

You should just message her and ask if she wants cock pics... what could go wrong?

[nudemacusers]

why is a girl looking you up on a dating site awkward? could be she wanted to see if you are cigarillo/in a relationship without going to the trouble to ask. maybe she just wants to see what you're about. isn't that why you have a okc account in the first place?

thinking too much about it yo.

[Flannel Boy]

I just went ahead and sent her the cock pics without asking.

Because if she didn't want to show up on his visitors list she could have just opened it in an incognito tab so obviously the fact that she didn't do that and didn't send him a message is like her preemptively saying there isn't a spark.

[Flannel Boy]

Yeah, that's definitely not it.

[nudemacusers]

Or maybe she saw his pic and was like "Wow, is that that guy from my law class? I'm gonna click and find out."

so awkward

[Shadow Mod]

How is it awkward to see a thumbnail and think "is this guy in my class? I need to look at more pics to figure this out." Jesus. Over thinking to the max again.

[brawndolicious]

Yeah, that's definitely not it.

My point is that if you overthink it and make yourself feel awkward then there is no chance for your genitals to touch each other.

Yeah, uh, that is exactly what I would do if I saw a pic on a dating site and thought it looked like a person I may know irl.

...which I've done before.

"You're bi. And I showed your picture to three girls and two asked if you were gay."

What the fuck girl get outta here. I'm dying laughing at this shit. YOU DON'T KNOW ME! GIRL YOU DON'T KNOW ME!

Their expert panel has concluded that you are gay. Who are you to say otherwise?
