Title: sorry, but I can only go so long without making a girl advice request thread.
Post by: recursivelyenumerable on October 22, 2007, 11:39:08 AM: so here's the deal. ever since I finished my compiler project, I've been having a lot more success with girls, by which I mean that usually if I go into a bar or coffeehouse I'll meet a girl and get her number to put into my cellphone and never call, or a few times we've gone back to her apartment for random makeout sessions, etc. as someone who never kissed a girl until 24 and still has never been on a date, this is pretty surreal, and I have no idea why it's happening as when I look in the mirror I see the same scuzzy acne-scarred face as always. do women find compiler writers irresistible?

anyway, I'm sure if I actually try to go on dates and have an actual relationship and/or sex, etc. it'll all blow up in my face, but if possible I'd like to head this off at the pass before things get that far. I think I'm doing pretty well right now by objectifying the various women I've met into the faceless abstraction of 'girls' who exist only to gratify either my ego or my masochism, and of course by posting about this on a game forum, but does anyone have further tips?

Be honest.
Be faithful.
Don't cling.

Post by: recursivelyenumerable on October 22, 2007, 11:58:55 AM: I use the sink but I get water all over the floor.

there's also a girl who still lets me use her shower, but it's someone I was very much attracted to and was more or less rejected by so it's a bit awkward.

Post by: Madrun Badrun on October 22, 2007, 12:53:59 PM: 1. acknowledge that no one will ever love you

2. Realize suffering is an important aspect of life, that it motivates you on coding, and thus is good.

3. Use number 2 to realize that number 1 isn't so bad.

4. Go gay.

There's lots of acme treatment out there; if you're 24 and still have it, you might need to see a doctor for better tips. Start getting active - working out, jogging, whatever. I find that I meet more chicks when I'm doing that stuff than anything else. You don't have to be buff, but being in shape always helps.

You're a writer eh? Hopefully you're a witty guy - make chicks laugh.

Yeah but you'll be happier. Lets not kid ourselves.

Depends on the girl and what your relationship is like.
