Pallando will return in "Never Say Never Again"

[Rusty Shackleford]

So should I move on or give her one more shot?

The Jesus ship has sailed. She probably belatedly realized you were mooslim

If she was really interested, she would have made time for you and been more active in contacting you. Besides, even if she was interested, I'm not sure you want to waste your time with someone who is either half-assing this stuff or playing games with you. The stark contrast between your first meeting and her response to your text is a red flag. Who ever heard of 18-21 y.o. undergrads being charitable to strangers? Especially girls? At least guys that age are aware of their dumbassery. Female undergrads have a tone of sullen defensiveness with strangers. Or friends. Or family.

The whole thing was strange. Time to move on.

Consider it a lesson learned - don't text them, call them.

[Oblivion]

O, you're fit as fuck, why do you put up with this shit?

Are you an emotional husk inside or something I should know about?

Thanks. For the past few years my contact with women was pretty limited, since I've was working all the time. I've been on quite a few dates, sure but almost all of them are from women I met online. I don't get an opportunity to meet women normally, though that might change since I started school again.

Yeah, it's not that I'm pining over her, it's just that this whole thing was really weird. I'm more confused than angry/annoyed.

Hey, you never know. Maybe she's apart of a Christian cult that has a sex sacrament. (Image removed from quote.)

If there is any country that gets its christianity more crazy mixed up than the USA, it's Japan.

I've been talking to a girl for the past couple of weeks from OkCupid. Things were going really really well lately and I was really starting to like her. She told me tonight that she wanted us to slow down and be friends first.

so, we are still talking but it doesn't look like we're going to be dating anytime soon.

Guys, I finally have a fuck buddy.

[Beezy]

Lol no, light skinned black. Jamaican background. Nice body, great but not ridiculously big ass, natural haired girl.

[fistfulofmetal]

[Atramental]

How about a long term relationship instead?

Also, I don't like the M word...

Not. at. all.

5 year wedding anniversary on Tuesday, brehs.

[Mupepe]

Show her that 315 lb bench press video during the anniversary dinner.

well I don't want us to end up doing anything illegal in the restaurant so I'll wait til we're in a park or something.

[Human Snorenado]

I've been on the verge of shutting down my OKC profile a couple times now, then someone will contact me, we'll banter back and forth and go out on a date.

The last couple times I went with an "eh, IDGAF" attitude and had sex on the first date both times, so maybe that works?

You gotta find that balance in idgaf. No one wants to date a pyschopath. The tree that bends brehs...

Srsly doe I'm glad you can live the dream at this stage in the game, Triumph.

It's all I know how to do but I don't want to do it anymore so I'm just sort of now, probably forever.

[Human Snorenado]

I would PREFER to have a relationship, but for it to work I'd have to respect her intellect, and that doesn't happen often with the women who date me. I've almost started just assuming they're dumb if they're into me.

I once dated someone who was smart and into (mild) ageplay (I was older than her and not really into that but w/e ) and when she grew out of that fetish I knew our relationship was pretty much toast (even though it lasted awhile after that) since there was nothing else I had to offer.

I remember reading a story about a crooked Orthodox monastery, I bet they need an accountant.

[Kara]

Well ikhwan I think I gots a date tonight.

Time to crash and burn.

[toku]

You'll be alright man, don't say that.

[Kara]

We're about to find out.

Date went well.

I picked a place that was far from mine to avoid the potential for first date sex.

But for our next date she wants to do something near my place.

She's very... Orange County, which isn't a bad thing, it's just that I haven't dated my people since I was like 19 or something.

So far so good.

Aside from a fucking bar tab.

She texted first this morning.

I should also add that I tipped the bartender like 30% because she was wearing white booty shorts and would shake her ass while at the register.

But when we talked about the tips I said I tipped well because she had been our bartender at the OC-Bore meetup and treated us right.

Just in case anyone is feeling happy for me.

'we should <insert activity>, why don't you give me your number'

[Kara]

fistful giving dating protips now. Our little tiger's all grown up.

On a self-absorbed note, I forgot to mention the best part of my date on Saturday. We were discussing why we were using the dating service we were using and she said, "Yeah, all the guy's I've dated on my own have been douchebags so I figured I needed a helping hand."

I didn't have the heart to tell her that I was a douchebag.

[Phoenix Dark]

Hit the eleven month mark yesterday. I am super in love; shit is so great. The reason I'm mention this isn't to brag but to let anyone here with any doubt know, that if I could find someone as great as my partner, you all can too.

- Never give up
- Believe in yourselves
- Always be who you are

wish I could give you a hug bro. you went through some dark times and while things aren't perfect now (they aren't for anybody, trust me) this part of your life really blossomed. I'm proud of you man, and it's awesome seeing things work out. She seems really nice too.

That's the most important part though!

And you clearly never give yourself enough credit.

I want to staple your parents to a rabid chicken.

[Kara]

Well you'll be happy to know I was recently disowned. (I actually had to sort of talk about this on my date. )

Anyway, excluding my unsavory psychological aspects, being myself is for a whole host of other lovely reasons.

For example, my date is pretty (STEM) smart (who the fuck takes C++ for generic upper div credits?) but doesn't know a lick about general history, let alone the obscure-ass shit I've filled my head with over the years to amuse myself. So on our date we were talking about silly places we wanted to see someday and of course I have to bring up my dream of going to San Marino which required that I tersely explain Italian reunification and the fact that the world's oldest existing republic is only still as such because it let Giuseppe Garibaldi couchsurf there when he was on the run from the fuzz back in the day.

I make Thufir Hawat look like James Dean.

Dude at work does a number on my panties. Security girl is interested in me. She's cute but she doesn't do anything for me. Decisions, decisions. I DO miss eating puss and she's pretty cool.

part of being a straight girl is playing bi when duty calls. make a threesome happen.

[Himu]

Hmm. Hot Guy is hot and all but we don't have much chemistry. So I'm giving up on that. Security Girl and I get each other to laugh and flirt with each other a bit. Today I noticed she was wearing eye makeup, so I complimented her eyes. She lit up and then went and giggled with the other security girl. Tomorrow I'm getting dat number. 95% chance  I get it or I put cilantro in tomorrow's dinner.

Can I ask a question...

Are your coworkers aware of your transition? I'm just curious whether this girl sees you as Naomi or as a guy. I don't want to sound offensive, couldn't think of another way to phrase the question. Likewise with the guy at work.

[Himu]

I live as a guy in public. I do not have a name change or a gender marker change on my ID, so it'd be pretty stupid to go in public in girl mode. I'm waiting till I get to California to do that. That said, it's impossible to hide an ass, tits, and face like this, so they probably know anyways, some don't seem to care because I see them checking me out.

[fistfulofmetal]

i matched with this chick on tinder and sent a message. then like a day later found her on okc and liked her profile. so now we're having two separate conversations on both services. it's weird.

[Kara]

Yeah that's weird, but such is the world of online dating.

I was talking to my date every day before we went out, now we're doing that irl not trying to seem clingy infrequent texting tango thing instead.

[TakingBackSunday]

Got the stupid motherfucking "I don't want to jump into anything right now, I just got screwed in a previous blahblahblah" thing earlier this evening from aforementioned girl

every goddamned time I think I find a girl who DOESN'T say this and seems happy with me, BOOM

fuck this gay earth

[TakingBackSunday]

no shit dude.

did this happen after you talked to her about it? just curious.

[TakingBackSunday]

Didn't bring it up, no.  We had a date scheduled last night that she cancelled due to work, which I believe because I know the sort of work she does.  Asked her today if she wanted to hang tonight or tomorrow and she said yes, followed by that shit. 

She said after that she liked me and wanted to keep seeing me but wanted to take things slow.  I'm cool with that as long as that's not some farce response to avoid telling me the truth, but I know fucking better at this point

[nudemacusers]

why do people always need to quantify this shit? take things slow? wtf does that even mean.

[Kara]

دمر طيزها

Get that shit, sovok.

I really shouldn't, and in spite of the fact that I know I can't run forever I hope I don't, but I feel like I'm already on a roller coaster I've ridden too many times before and it can't be stopped. We already have running jokes.

It's also really bad for me (in terms of personal growth) to be with someone who indulges in sarcasm and irony as much as I do. (If you ever want to torture etiolate just record our social interactions and make him observe them in perpetuity.)

On the other hand I like her so far and find the way in which she's smart but either unaware of it or completely apathetic about it intriguing.

Maybe she can become successful (I mean this in a societal way, I already consider her to be) and throw me out like too when she realizes I'm a broken record.

[toku]

As a guy who has done that to girls, recently even, I'm sorry BrandNew.

[TakingBackSunday]

I'm sick of being used as an emotional hanky for girls who can't fucking get over their shitty experiences.  This has been the story of my first 5 years in my 20s.

[TakingBackSunday]

No?  I'm not even sure what you're asking.  I met this girl on Tinder, we've been dating for almost two months.

[TakingBackSunday]

I probably fall victim to eagerness, sure.  But with this circumstance I played it pretty casually.  We had dates, we hung out, we fooled around, we both liked each other.  Wasn't hanging on her every word, wasn't texting her throughout the day.

[ToxicAdam]

That's why people get in shitty relationships or can't break free from the cycle. They confuse love with the strong emotions you get when you are in a bad relationship. So, when they meet someone new who is just a normal person, they don't think they like them because they are not getting those 'strong emotions'.

'Falling in love' is just as much a practical choice as it is an emotional one. Some people never want it to be, so they just keep riding that crazy roller coaster.

It took me until I was about 27 (and a bunch of failed relationships) to figure that shit out.

[Atramental]

If I were in BN's position I would have no trouble accepting that girls wouldn't want to be in a long term relationship with me. Anyone who can put up with me and my bullshit for at least 2 weeks is a saint in my book.
