Dating Advice

Bumped it just for you Bookie.........



A life lesson for the ladies........

Ahhhh, yes. . .that thread. I did read it at the time but had totally forgotten about it and it wasn't clicking when you mentioned sex toys---probably because I don't think I posted in it. After all, that thread was ALL Bri dealing with you turds. . .mercifully! LOL! Thanks for the refresher bump.

 

[bookjones]

okay, my mistake...sorry about that...



anyhow, interesting concept on the chocolate mold, bri...time to talk to the fiancee for a possible present.

Uh-huh. . .yeah. . .sure.

As for your confidence, find it. Somewhere, somehow. Of all the traits of a sexy woman, confidence is number one.

This is one of my favorite bits of advice from folks who are either married or have been in a serious relationship for a while.



They make it sound like it's just something you can go down to the store to buy or a switch to turn on...



CONFIDENCE? This whole time it was CONFIDENCE that attracts others? And here I was thinking it was a big dick, money and a fast car!

I contend that reaching out to the other sex (or same if that's your bag) for intimacy/a relationship/etc. is not NEARLY as easy as some like to make it out and that as easy as it is to spout off things like "it's a numbers game" and "you have to be ok with rejection" - it's a lot harder to experience those situations especially when you've been away from them for so long.



With that said, I realize the advice is coming from a good place...

So here's what I am getting from this whole thread---basically the singletons should just start their own IHN version of Match.com then you've already taken care of the whole breaking the ice/talking to someone (at least electronically, heh) thingy, you've already got at least two known common interests in hockey and IHN, three you don't have to worry about this potential new mate having a problem with your hockey preoccupation, and fourth by now you should be able to suss out whether a member is somewhat intriguing to you or not. There. Now get buck wild and have at it people! But remember, any children born of these alliances/dalliances MUST have a middle name of "IHN"---that's the deal.

I was single for a very long time before I met my wife and I can tell you it was when I started carrying myself with confidence I started do much better. It's definitely not an easy thing to find, nor can I offer any advice on how to find it. Just saying if you can muster it up inside you somehow you'll notice a world of difference. Not just in relationships, but in life. I know, it's easier said than done or we'd all be there.

Of course, a big dick, money and fast car don't hurt either, but if you have all three of those I'm pretty sure you're feeling pretty good about your chances.

You seem like a cool dude, I dont know why you would have an issue. Are you a transplant to fla? When I moved to St. Louis from Chi for a couple years I concur that making friends isnt super easy in an environment where everyone is already established (although I really didnt care because I knew I was coming back in a relatively short time).



I mean your option is pretty much co workers, and most of them already have their cliques and frankly, having all my friends through work is depressing because then you constantly thinka bout work.



Although I hung out with Pete from the boards here a few times down there(which is my ex girlfriends fault, that it wasnt more, constantly bitched about it, like if she didnt have any friends neither could I despite her always being invited). But at least having a significant other there makes it un-lonely. hell I feel lonely now, Ive never actually lived alone before, i always had roomates lived at home or lived with my girlfriend until now. Although I have plenty of friends here, still during the week I can get lonely.





And dont get intimidated talking to Bri. Ive got a detective on it, and were pretty sure that BHM developed a female AI to gather dirt on the "posse", which ultimately betrayed him because KillerCarlson set her free after McDouche killed NHTA. Thats only one conspiracy theory as to the Origin of Bri. I can only speculate as I was banned within hours of NHTA's shut down. For an avatar with McDouche sporting a hitler stache, Yet BHM didnt care that I had the old man in a turbin and Osama beard for like 2 years.

I'm not a real social person. Mainly because I'm not terribly good at it so I get super quiet around strangers. Even when I go to a hockey game I normally dont open my mouth until the 2nd period.



And hell with you guys I'm a lot more at ease for one it is the internets 2nd, I'm been around the hawks forums (oboards then here) for about 3 years. you ******* are stuck with me til I'm banned.

Hun, if Tiny Tim is as big as your ego, the Grand Canyon would be a snug fit.

Yeah and proud of it. I ain't getting laid anyway might as well confess to what I am then

Biggest one in DuPage County.



Its full of Asians, so i dont know if im complimenting myself or not.

 

[LordKOTL]

It's not that easy, but for those that have seen the 40-year old virgin, part of it is based on one of the recurring themes of the movie:



Don't put pussy (or dick) on a pedestal.



If you spot someone that piques your interest, it's not like that woman, or that man, is he only one out there that will look god lying naked between your sheets, and unless you actually try and get to know them, you won't know if they are any good in a relationship, either.



It is psychological that way--and if your confidence isn't as high as you'd like...do what I did: Fake it.

Being the biggest around is still the biggest around. it might be like being the tallest midget but hey you are the tallest.

 

[jakobeast]

Hun, Rdrhwke is a guy. I don't know about reproducing that, but they do have such a thing as Clone a Willy so you guys can make one for your significant others.

I got one of those.

And the only thing that's easier then a married people saying that is brushing it off as inane and ridiculous. We have all been in that situation. Everyone. Love doesn't come easy to anyone. Some just have a better way of hiding it. Yup. You have to work at it.

 

[jaxhawksfan]

First Rule of the Tao of Steve: We pursue that which retreats from us.



Asians in Dupage? Yummy!



Finally, pussy on a pedestal? Yeah, don't do it. Nothing ever lives up to that kind of hype. Hideous girls have pussies too and they feel just the same.

Things I've learned:



Confidence is huge. I like to shoot my mouth off, and usually I have a tendency of thinking something will be funny when it's lame. I used to let it hit my morale and I would stop, but now I usually just shake it off and don't back down from any other chances I get to pipe up. Plus nobody wants to be around a depressed person or someone with a shitty attitude all the time.



Don't jump into a relationship. I'm a firm believer in this. Just take things slow and go with feels right, but DO NOT go full speed ahead with someone just because it's the first person that your interested in and think they feel the same way. You might miss out on some quirks that you don't like or notice at first because your just so happy to be in a relationship.

Hun, Are you available? Not for me cause that would be too Mary Kay Latourneau, but you and Katy would be a cute match.

Don't think about getting laid, and you'll get laid. Guaranteed.

I hate that paradoxical quixotic logic trap of shit and eternal masturbation.
