I think having a thread like this would be good. Here we can talk about girls or dudes we find attractive, and maybe get some advice on how to obtain one of our own.
If I had to make a list, it'd probably look like this, probably unnumbered.
1. Demi Lovato
(https://animationrevelation.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi901.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fac220%2FAvaitorX%2Fdemilovato13714305e0fbr.jpg&hash=683625ebfe3a69dca35466638ae8a3307a3808b2)
Yes, the Disney girl. Yes, the one who went to the treatment center. But I'll defend her until the endo f time. Hey, she can be hot, and she has a good voice too. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmp5_cayCIs&feature=related) She can pull off almost any style well, and I appreciate her for it.
2. Alison Mosshart
(https://animationrevelation.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww1.pictures.gi.zimbio.com%2FDazed%2BConfused%2BAfter%2BParty%2BFqeHXrIfvP8l.jpg&hash=b7c5800c39b147265df4425785fc0894816545a0)
Lead singer of The Kills and Dead Weather, two awesome bands, and a super hot chick in her own right. She looks like she just woke up with a wicked hangover, barely touched her hair, but is still ready to go to work, and I love her for that. Check out her pwning Jack White too. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7QSkI6My1g)
3. Zooey Deschanel
(https://animationrevelation.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.generally-speaking.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2009%2F09%2Fzooey-deschanel-hand.jpg&hash=1a24618fe72fff32de2578a48a3ad6f9515789cc)
Say no to these eyes, I dare you. Zooey is the cutest indie girl alive.
4. Alison Brie
(https://animationrevelation.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.esquire.com%2Fcm%2Fesquire%2Fimages%2Falison-brie-pic-community-0909-lg-75001915.jpg&hash=c9443aa6aa45566fcc92310c584700e9d0f24d2e)
Really cute. I watch her every week on Community, and apparently she's also really good on Mad Men as well. She rose up my list a bit after discovering that she has a pretty decent taste in music as well.
5. Rachel Bilson
(https://animationrevelation.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.superphotospace.com%2Fimages%2Fthumb%2Frachel_bilson12_473db8e847454-t.jpg&hash=d8e5ab698b394444e64809d861905dbbb1bbe665)
My sister made me watch the entirety of The OC with her, and Rachel made it completely bearable. She's just adorable in everything she's done, from that to her movies to her guest spots on How I Met Your Mother, especially her most recent one when she kissed another girl. ;D
I can post more later, but here's a starter for you guys.

Whatever happened to the preggo chick who kept receiving donated plushies from you?
Why am I reminded of Shin-Chan's famous quote?
Decided to change the title since just referring to only one sex probably will be offensive to some.
But yeah, lately I've been feeling down when it comes to a lot of things, including girls. I've had a long, weird history with them and I don't want to get into all of that now, but I have been reflecting on the past mistakes I and other girls have done lately so I can try to improve on mu future.
Anyone have something to add?
"Offensive to some"? What, did Kury bitch you out or something?
Well yeah (it is a school night after all :blush:), but I figured that I should change the title a little anyway.
Ah.
Anyways, I think gurls are kewl, boobs are awesome and all, but right now I'm content on not having a relationship or even sex. I played the game for a while, got some experience, and I just would like to be the bench warmer for a bit. I'm not big on the whole thing anyway, and I know lots of people say they won't ever get married, but honestly I don't see myself ever marrying. I might happen in the future, so I'm not closing the door prematurely here, but as of right now I see it as something I don't want to deal with.
I'm a bit old fashioned when it comes to relationships, so nothing for me right now. There haven't been any girls that have really attracted me to them recently, either.
Unlike one of my friends who would even do a girly looking dude if the lights were turned off.
The problem with me is basically all of my friends are hooking up or have been with someone for a while, and I haven't been in a relationship (if you could call that one) in over a year.
There is one girl I like, but she's only into "the best of the best" which I'm not, and no one else here really interests me.
I'm actually fine with that since I know I won't be in town forever so I don't want something long term at the moment, but I hate hearing about double and triple dates that I'm not a part of because I'm by myself.
I've also been talking about stuff like this with a couple of people now and it's bringing up old wounds, which is why I bumped this, hoping to hear better luck from you guys.
Last time I was with a girl was in high school. She was a nice girl, a bit naive, average looking, but she had a good heart, and I kind of liked her in a way. We both knew we liked each other, but we were both cowards and never admitted it to each other. Admittingly, this is actually the first time I told this to a wide range of people.
Not really looking for a relationship right now, I'm currently trying to focus on more important things like finishing college, and finding a better job.
There's plenty of time for relationships. :swoon: Don't let it mess up your school life though, like animated shows and video games haven't done that already.
Never had a boyfriend or girlfriend.... Don't think I really ever want one.
Made out with someone before, not too fun.
That's about it.
But I can give insight to a girls minds.
I think I've learned all I can from you, but if the rest of you guys want some info from her, than go ahead.
In that case, how come girls hate healthy competition?

Most girls feel insecure about themselves, no matter what front they may wear, and feel even worse when compared to other girls.
Add in their boyfriends ( who they may not fully believe when they say they're pretty, and state so, but love hearing it anyway) look at another girl or have fun with them, they feel more insecure and, again, compare themselves to said girl. Most would think that they aren't good enough for their boyfriends, and that girl would do them far better.
Another side of it could be that the girl and them don't get along, so they don't want for their boyfriend to be hurt by the girl, as they have.
Do "normal" girls, besides ones like you, like nerds?
"I was always fascinated by people who are considered completely normal, because I find them the weirdest of all." -Johnny Depp
So.... I have no idea.
Every girl is different in their preferences, that may or may not have any connection to their personality.
A more popular girl may like the same type of guy as a loner, but her friends may like a different type.
Girls of all shapes and sizes like gius of all shapes and sizes.
Most guys believe that only a certain type of girl would like them, but they don't like that type of girl, so there is nobody out there for them.
That is simply not true.
Hmm, true.
And knowing me, do you think I'll ever find someone?
Of course I do. Even the most insane boys who beat girls find someone, even if it doesn't work.
You're far better than almost every boy I've ever met. There's no way you won't meet a special girl.
From what I've seen, being nerdy or quirky's alright, but if you have any "red flag" issues or unhealthy habits then that's far worse. Also, if you're on the spectrum, it's good to get some extra practice with social cues. It also helps if you have about the same amount or less of emotional baggage since if there's a huge imbalance, then you'll feel more like a therapist or patient.
Umm...hey, I'm new, but maybe some people know that I have a huge obsession with Sterling Knight... *points at avatar & custom rank*
:P
Hey Cherry.
Yeah, like I didn't know that. :P
Hey Judas :)
Hehe, I think you (and Rissa) are the only one's in here that know more of my Sterling obsession xD
Yeah, Rissa's the only other member here with an account.
The guys know of my Demi addiction obviously. Or at least I think they do...
Thanks for my desktop, btw.
When I joined & uploaded my avatar & siggy, I looked through the pages & I'm the only one who has a "Demi & Sterling" siggy and I was like: O_O I'm gonna be the strange girl xD
And welcome about the desktop :)
Ugh.
So I've been going through a lot recently. I haven't been wanting to delve into just what's been going on, exactly, but now I feel like I need to vent.
So there's this girl I really like. We met a couple of times before, but it wasn't until about a month or two ago that we really started getting close. The girl is smart, beautiful, and shares a lot of similar interests to me. We clicked instantly when I quoted Scott Pilgrim one night, and started talking about how the graphic novels were superior to the movie. She's really big on comics (Spider-Man is her favorite super hero. +1), anime/manga, literature, and a lot of the same music I'm into. Her favorite band is The Smiths, and on the flip side, she tried to make it to the Iron Maiden show I went to before I really knew her, but tried too late. We've had many a good discussion on Poe, Led Zeppelin, Toonami, and film all over the spectrum, among numerous other subjects, a lot of which I could never have with any of my other friends. Even my friends called her the girl version of me when they first met her.
The problem? She's engaged. Actually, she got married yesterday. They weren't supposed to get married this soon, but he's heading off to Germany as a part of his training by the end of the month, as opposed to in the middle of August like they thought, so they had to pull everything ahead of schedule. Although she has to wait to sign some paper work, so she's staying for a couple of weeks after he leaves, then will head off for him.
The guy was in basic, and only came back about a week ago. She was spending time with her friends in between to kill time, but had no interest in dating anyone else. They were mostly getting married so soon because her family's financial situation was becoming tighter, and she thought that she needed to settle down and find security. She was in school for cosmetology, but had to drop out due to lack of funds. She did have a job, which she's leaving in a few weeks when she heads out. It's bullshit, but "what she needs".
I would be fine with this and let her live her life, if he wasn't such a douchebag. The few times I met the guy, he's been an asshole to his friends and very judgmental to the new people he met, while purposefully insulting anyone.
For one example, the first day I met him was the same day that Ronnie James Dio died. One of my best friends, who's a fellow fan of the man, called to tell me this, while I freaked out. This guy's response? "I don't care. Rock sucks."
Great first impression. She's a fan too, and tried to support the legend, while he gave her shit for liking rock.
But it goes deeper than just being an ass to everyone else. He's even attempted to cheat on her before, with one of her best friend's sisters, no less. She has come from a long history of cheating, so this unfortunately was nothing new to her, but nonetheless shocking. He's also tried to hit on other girls a few times, but failed on his face each time.
There's more about him too, but I'm forgetting some of it. The long of their relationship is that they have been going out on and off since middle school, but have only been together seriously for about 2 years, and in those 2 years, she's dealt with a lot of bullshit.
No one really seemed to support this wedding. I think that she deserves someone better, even if it's not me, and most if not all of our friends agree with this statement. His family hates her for not being Hispanic like them, and for some other silly reasons. And her family never liked him much to begin with, but were willing to support her all the way.
Even she had second doubts while he was away, because he has put her through a lot. We've been talking to her and supporting her as much as we can, but she thinks that she's going to be happy with him. She does, at least. Us? Not so much.
I didn't go to the wedding, to the after party, which I hear was a lot of fun. Partly because I didn't know if I was invited since it was so last minute (apparently I was, though), but mostly since I didn't think I could handle being there.
What's done is done. If they really are happy together, then I'll be happy for her, but I can't help but feel like the worst is bound to happen.
What really kills me is that my best friend was talking to her the day before they got married, and I came up. She says that she thought we instantly clicked due to having so many interests, and could tell that I liked her (everyone else could...), but thought that I was more interested in being her friend since I had so few close girl friends. She did say that she would have gone out with me, though.
I'm still trying to decide if I made the right choice by being quiet and not tell her exactly what I felt about her, or if I should have come out. And it's too late to do anything about that now.
Sorry to hear about all that, man. Life can be really fucking rough.
This guy sounds like bad news all around. Did he ever abuse your friend or anything like that? It seems as if a reason she might have gone through with the marriage could be because she was afraid of what he might do had she broken it off, but, then again, I don't know either of them in real life and I'm not that great at judging character. Hope everything turns out alright, for you and everyone else.
Quote from: Foggle on July 17, 2011, 11:12:34 PM

As far as we know, he has not. According to her, while he's easy to threaten and consider picking up a fight, he's a total lightweight and couldn't throw a punch. She thinks that even scrawny little herself could beat him up. He did come back from basic with little more muscle tone than before, so she may be right
Anything is possible though, and we're afraid of that happening. When they're out in Germany without her close friends to give her support, that could just possibly happen. Who knows.
I'd be concerned if she only knew about him for a month and then got married, but the on and off again thing for two years makes me think she's seen enough sides of him that she's willing to give up training for a new career and take on his crap for the rest of her life.
Man, that really sucks. I don't know either of them, obviously. But from what I hear, and I could be wrong, but I really don't think this marriage will work out... No matter if it lasts forever or not.
Whoever said good things come to those who wait is a fucking liar.
Elaborate.
The story I posted here earlier? Well, they should be filing for divorce soon (I might tell that story in the very near future, but I don't feel like it right now).
All should be fine and good, right? She's leaving the asshole and has time to live life as a single lady again. Except she's already in a relationship, with some guy she used to have a crush in back in middle and high school but never talked to until just recently. This shouldn't hurt as much as it does, but we've really become close lately, beyond being just really close friends, so I feel a little betrayed and completely unworthy.
Here's a good piece of advice: Don't feel entitled to anything. Even when you do get something you want, be prepared to deal with it being taken away.
So ever since the beginning of the school semester back in September, I've gotten to be close friends with a girl. I mean, we bonded really well. We had similar interests, similar sense of humor, all that stuff.
Around the beginning of October, we took that a little further. I was completely interested romantically, and she thought she was too. Honestly, it was perfect. We talked all the time, spent so much time together... it was almost too good to be true. I had liked her that way ever since the second or third week of school. but didn't think anything like that would happen.
Great, right? Well... it happened too soon for her. And coming off of a terrible relationship she had in the sooner with some douchebag, she got overly excited when she met me. Truthfully, she wasn't sure she was interested. She was too nervous to tell me this right away though. So one week she just started acting off. I was really nervous before she finally confessed it a week or so later. She wanted to preserve the strong friendship we had though.
I was hurt by this, very hurt of course. But you know, I handled it pretty adequately. And I still had that hope in the back of my mind. We could still make this work, but we both needed a few months.
So we tried to just be friends... Sadly, she was having trouble coping with it, after what had happened. I made my mistakes too. I was way to pushy, bringing every conversation we had back to "When are we gonna hang out?!". It annoyed her a lot. And we talked about this just last Wednesday. I told her that I would make sure to stop, and that she should tell me immediately if she has a problem with me again.
I was nervous at this point, waiting for Monday to come (we only have class together Monday and Wednesday). I needed to see how our friendship would work from this point on.
Well...
I checked her facebook profile this past Saturday night. And she defriended me. No idea why. I just couldn't believe it. Could barely even breath, actually. I texted her, and she didn't respond. So I did the only thing I could do. I went outside and called her.
Because of everything that was going on, and because our most recent conversations with each other was so awkward... she thought we should just... disconnect from each other from now on. I talked to her for a while, but it was no use really.
Honestly, I feel destroyed. I don't think I've ever felt so emotionally hurt. What makes this twice as bad is the fact that WE STILL HAVE A MONTH OF CLASS LEFT. I still have to sit there in her presence, watching her be herself, and that's too much for me to handle. Monday was agonizing. I don't know how I got through another day, let alone a month. I can't even look at her anymore!
So that's it. Sorry that I'm so depressed, I promise I'll keep it out of this thread... I just don't know what to do. I long ago resigned to the possibility that a romantic relationship wouldn't work, NOT this.
Eh, your kids. You've got time to realize your mistakes.
My only regret about avoiding relationships is that I can't really help my siblings if they suddenly become interested in dating. Thankfully we're kind of an old fashioned family so I don't think I have to worry about them until they're in college at least.
I echo what RSW said; you have a long healthy life ahead of you, if it doesn't work out then there will always be other opportunities. It's only when you give in to negative feelings that it feels worse than it possibly is.

I know you guys are right... I just can't deal with the fact that I have to see her nearly every other day.
If its any consolation, she's probably feeling the same as you.
I had 2 friends in high school that dated for a couple months. They were really into each other, seemed like a perfect couple and then one day they just split. Things got really awkward in the class, especially when they were left alone with us. Eventually that tension thawed and they were back to hanging out together again.
The point is you can't stop that feel but you will overcome it.

I hope so. I really do. Once things settle down in a few weeks, I want to ask her if she's willing to be friends again (on her time table, cause I can't be pushy like she said I was).

But in response to a post earlier... I'm not sure she's as scared of being in the class with me as I am. This is what she wanted, after all.
It's probably not that simple.
Probably.
Either way, I spoke to a counselor today about it (really, I was hyperventilating when explaining the situation to my teacher). I feel much better now. The pain is still there, and it'll probably remain for weeks. But it's less now.

wow, that sucks. now she has baggage, not like she didn't have a ton of that before.
If anyone remembers, I recently went through a tough bout with a girl, about a month ago. She's my ex, but more importantly, one of my closest friends.
We avoided each other the entire month. It hurt everyday, but not nearly as bad as that first week did, when I first posted about it. But I decided that, today, we would need to speak, as it was the last day of that class. I want to restore our friendship someday, a month or so. And if she remembers how things were in the beginning, she should want to as well.
Being that today was the last day, it could of potentially been the last time I would ever see her. Though hopefully, that won't be the case.
Three things I wanted to go over with her.
1. Have a good Christmas break!
2. If you ever want to catch up, you have my number.
3. I hope I broke the awkwardness between us a bit.
I successfully caught her as she left the building, and got through all of it... Truthfully, her responses were predictable. Didn't exactly boost my confidence in the future, but didn't damage any chances. She just gave generic "Thanks, you too!" type of responses, which may or may not of had any meaning. By #3 though she was in the middle of turning around to leave, which was slightly saddening. but I don't want to let it get to me. There's still a month before we talk again. Unless she takes up my offer and calls/texts me sometime, which I'd be overjoyed about if it happened.
Do I think our friendship can be fixed? Much as I hate to say it, it's a 50/50 chance. It all depends, really, on how well she remembers what our friendship was like, and how much it meant to her... I'm just scared that she might want me out of her life forever.
Leave that shit alone.

In typical gunswordfist matter, I have no idea what you're talking about or who you are responding to. :sly:
In case you decided to respond to me... a month late, I've got an update on that... Screw Jenny. She doesn't deserve a second chance. The day she does is the day SHE comes to ME. I shouldn't have to come to her when she's the one who screwed up. I know I said I would try again, but I also said I made mistakes with that relationship. In truth, I never did. Jenny just has clinical depression, and decided to stir up drama to feel better about herself because she was afraid of being happy with me (common trait in people with clinical depression). She screwed me over, and I don't need someone like that in my life. I'm feeling much better now and can live without ever seeing her again.
Now you are sounding like a typical man i.e. a jackass. :sly:
Shut up woman.

Am I the one who screwed her over? No. She's the one who fucked up. Can you honestly sit there and tell me that I need someone like that in my life? If she deserves my friendship, she'll come back to me and right what she wronged. I left the door open for her, to allow for another chance, but she's the one who has to make the decision.
But yeah, sure, I'm the idiot here.
Now you sound like a woman. :sly:
Seriously, I agree with your decision.

If by "ready for today" you mean "ready for another ordinary day," then yes. Single and very happy about it tbh.
Happy Valentines Day everyone. I already wished you all that on Twitter last night with those cards I found on 4Chan. Enjoy your day of singleness, as I'll be working for most of the day at a supermarket.
Happy Valentine's day guys, you can all be my way hetero Valentines if you want. :whuh:

I'm just glad I managed to make it into that /a/ collage. The guy behind that project is one dedicated dude, he's sorting through so many entries on his own and is determined to include everyone no matter what.
Ah yes, another Valentine's Day spent within the company of me myself and I. Watched a hockey game, played some Pokemon, went out for a bite to eat (BY MYSELF)... in other words, a pretty standard day for me.
Alas, I am not complaining. I mean, yeah, I'd like to have a girlfriend, but I won't lie; being single definitely has its benefits. At least this way, there's no chance of me being in the doghouse for not doing enough. :humhumhum:

My gift to you all.
Well since its finally out.
http://archivethumb3.foolz.us/board/a/img/0614/68/1329392509481.jpg (http://archivethumb3.foolz.us/board/a/img/0614/68/1329392509481.jpg)
I actually had a lot of fun going into town and getting the stuff ready for my picture. Just wish my camera wasn't so sensitive to light because it came out real grainy at first until someone fixed it for me. My pal submitted his too, and I was incredibly jealous at the cake he purchased.
I guess it's my turn, since I now have a story.
My best friend and I have been close since freshman year of high school. He even lives just down the street from me. He's a real cool guy and I'm thankful just to even be in touch with him. Anyway, there's this girl who was his coworker at his newer job. Some months ago, she quit and got a different job but it's in the same building they work in. While I was with him at his house watching TV she came by and I got the chance to meet her.
She was pretty, but it was my first conversations with her that made me crush on her. She actually likes a lot of the same stuff I do. She plays video games sometimes, she loves the Disney Afternoon toons and Gargoyles! (so much that she even has a mixtape of herself singing all of the old intros! :shakeshakeshake:) ; and she loves all of Nick's old stuff like Salute Your Shorts and Pete and Pete. There's a few other things we have in common too. We both like dancing and singing and she has a pretty singing voice, though she's modest about it. I got to see her a few more times at my best friend's house, and the three of us recently saw 21 Jump Street together.
To get back to my friend, he started to try hanging out with her but she had a boyfriend, and he didn't want to mess with that. However she soon broke up with the guy. My friend has dated her a few times, but he said he wasn't sure he really wants to be more than friends with her. He doesn't want to screw up and lead her on, and he also doesn't want to risk giving into temptation and go all the way with her off the bat.
Here's where I come back in, my birthday was last Thursday so he invited me to watch a live basketball game with him and a group of our friends, plus this other new guy and girl who I met for the first time. Afterwards, we went to a local Hooters. I got to talking with her, and the conversation turned to how she really likes my friend and crushes on him, and how while it may not work out that sometimes you have to just put yourself out there and see how the other person feels. .3.
I took her advise on the spot and told her that I kind of have a crush on her. It didn't turn out bad at all. As soon as I told her I immediately felt relief like a ton of bricks was lifted off me. She smiled at me and told me she appreciated my telling her. She said I made her feel really special and that I was sweet. She said she was sorry she didn't fully reciprocate, but she was real proud of me for having the courage to tell her. She even said if I needed to, I could come and talk to her about anything, especially other girls. :)
It's cool, because I already knew how into my best friend she is from one of our previous conversations. Besides, before I told her my attraction to her, I got her phone number and she friended me on Facebook. So at least I'm sure I'll get to hang out with her when we all go out again. Plus, last week my friend went to a concert with said new other girl earlier, and just last night they went out. I already told him before my birthday that I liked her, and he said that was cool because she's a cool girl. He said he was proud of me, and that it was cool I was able to spill my guts out to her.
So, who knows? Since my best friend is still seeing other girls, maybe there will come a chance when I can pursue her. But even if there isn't, I'm fine with it. I'm just glad I told her before my emotions could bottle up and that she knows now. Even if she ends up with some other guy completely, I think as long as she's happy I'll be happy too. :thumbup:
If something does happen in the future, I'll let you know.
So this chick I'm acquainted with but wouldn't exactly call a "friend" (we're both nice to each other in contact and all, but I think she's obnoxious and an idiot overall) has just become engaged... to a guy that she's only been dating for I swear a week. Right now all of her friends like me know, since she put it on Facebook and has been bragging about it around town, but she hasn't even told her parents yet. A bunch of people have been trying to talk her out of it for obvious reasons, but she won't have any of it.
There's no way it's gonna last. The girl has a tendency to be in relationships that only last for a few days, so it'd be a miracle if they're still together by the end of the month. In fact, I think the only reason this has really happened is that this is the first time she's been dating someone for more than a week in years, if not ever.
Hmm, wonder if it will last longer than that Kardashian marriage? :humhumhum:
The engagement won't even make it that far.
Has she known the person for longer than they've been dating? Sometimes that counts towards the dating period?
Beats me. I doubt it, though. People who know this chick typically know better than to date or get close to her.
Her name doesn't happen to be Miley Cyrus? :swoon:
No, she and Liam Hemsworth have been dating for 3 years. This girl started dating this guy for a considerably shorter amount of time before getting engaged.
Welp they're done already. Not surprised at all.
I wish I could find love. :blush:
You don't find love. Love finds you.

But no, the "couple" have already split up.
Wow, not even a month, I guess that beats the Kardashians, but not Britney's.
It's official; I am the biggest no-balled pussy that has ever existed. Ever.
My goddamn shyness when it comes to girls... honestly, I cannot fucking stand it anymore. I just... fuck. FUCK. :srs:
Sorry for the language. Really. I... am just so lost, it's not even funny. And I really think this girl likes me too. But I can't talk to her. I can't do it. I just... I can't. It's so fucking embarrassing.
Just talk to her. Gather up your courage and do it.
I know that sounds stupid, but that's really all anyone can say.
I know. I... just needed a place to vent, really.
Funny thing is, in high school, I wasn't nearly this pathetic when it came to this sorta stuff. Being out of the game for a few years... eh, who knows. All of a sudden I'm just terrible at talking to girls I'm attracted to. I don't know what it is, but it sucks.
I imagine I'll be seeing her again later this week, so I guess I can try to strike up something worthwhile then. God, I'm so lame. :sweat:

Wear sunglasses.
Well folks... I'm proud to say that I finally did it; I FINALLY talked to her today. Not just the usual hi and bye, either, but a full fledged conversation and everything. It was a little awkward at first, and I stumbled a few times right off the bat, but at least I finally broke the ice. And it only took me, what, 2-3 months? :sweat:
I still have no idea whether she's even single or not, or if she's even interested in me to begin with (I suspect she is, though, at least a little; she smiles at me every time I see her, she's gone out of her way to say hi at least a few times in the past, and she must've stood there waiting for me to talk to her for like 10 minutes... so that all has to account for something, right?), but hey, baby steps. It was a pleasant conversation otherwise, though, so I'm going to revel in this small personal victory for a few days.
Really hoping this is the start of something good. :)
Congrats! I'm glad to hear it worked out.
I can't imagine being any more shy than all those shonen guys in rom-coms. But yeah talking to girls can be scary. Glad you are making some steps though. Confidence is a good thing.
Hey Kiddington, can we get an update on your situation?
My buddy told me last week that based on my personality, i'm either gonna settle for an average looking housewife type or I'll manage to trick a 10/10 girl into tying the knot with me. Not sure which one's the compliment and which one's the insult.

That is really frustrating. I honestly can't stand people (guys and gals) who do that.
It is what it is I suppose. Rejection is just part of the game, and I knew that going in.
...still though, you're right; it is extremely frustrating, considering how overly friendly she was at times. If she was so damn concerned about misrepresenting her feelings, she shouldn't have flirted with me. I mean, it was so blatant; what am I supposed to think? She's just being nice? Give me a break. Honestly, I think I'd rather just be ignored than lead on to such a degree. It really hurt being shot down like that, and considering how often I run into her, there's no doubt I'm going to see her again eventually. And that's going to suck, no matter how I try to spin it.
Whatever, it happens. I just think what makes it hurt even more, though, is considering how lonely I've felt lately. Being single really didn't bother me up until the past few months; now I just feel so desperate, and I don't know why. I really wish I could meet someone soon, and setbacks like this don't help at all.
Forget all of the negativity and generalized bad thoughts surrounding my previous posts in this thread, because guys... I've done it. I've finally done it. I've met someone. I'VE ACTUALLY MET SOMEONE (that isn't a "fantasy girlfriend" who won't even give me the time of day).
You've probably seen me gushing about it on Twitter already, but the long and short of it is, she's perfect. She's absolutely perfect. We have so much in common, I can't believe it. She likes Gravity Falls, American Dad, Pokemon, Mario, just to name but a few things... it's like I'm dating myself in female form (okay, that sounds weird, but you know what I mean). Never in a million years did I think I'd meet someone who I'd hit it off with so well, and have so much in common with, much less in this town of all places. Pretty much every girl I've met here up to this point is either out of my league or completely insufferable, to say the least... but this one... this one is a completely different story. And a great one at that.
oh wow, yay you.
I have a girl like that. Only "perfect for me" one I ever met.
And she refused to date me on the grounds that I'm not Asian. :lol:
Awww, life's a bitch. Good for you man. Nice that it works out for someone. :)
Well, I was going to meet with my (now) ex at Disney on Tuesday, on shore leave from her cruise and at Orlando for the day. We really wanted to see the Fantasyland expansion, and maybe reignite the spark.
But nope, her mom thinks Disney is for little kids, so they're going to Cocoa Beach instead. This is completely more feasible for me in terms of money, since it's only abut a 20 minute drive and doesn't require paying to go into anything, but now we have to sneak away from her mom for the day, which can only work for so long.
On top of all of this, I'm planning this day in the middle of finals week, but unless I win her back, I may never have a chance to do something like this again, so I'm pulling all the cards on the table here.
I'm not one for relationships, but you get out there and put your heart on the table. Seriously, that story sounds perfect for a mushy romance movie I'd watch on a Saturday night away from friends, family and the responsibilities of school.
Good luck man. :thumbup:
The sad thing is, I'm the one who broke up with her, literally JUST before she said that she booked the cruise with the day in Florida. But now I'm the one who regrets the decision and can't go back in easily, which is why I'm trying my damnedest this time.
All I can say is good luck with it!
Best of luck out there, Avaitor. :thumbup:
So yeah, we met up. And had a good time, I think.
I hate girls.
You know what, forget that. I just hate people in general. Because people suck.
...except you guys, of course. We're still bros. O0
WELL I WAS ABOUT TO SAY
Sorry to hear that, man. What happened? Unless you'd rather not say, in which case, I'd understand.
She has a crush on someone else... despite the fact that this "someone else" apparently lives in fucking NEW ZEALAND. :burn:
I don't know if that's really true or not (I mean, she might just be saying that as an easier way to express her overall lack of interest), but she insists it is. Says she'll never feel the same way about me, and just wants to be "friends". So, you know, whatever man... just, whatever.
I'm sure you dodged a bullet anyway.
I've only been with two girls in my life, in one three and a half year relationship and one about three month relationship, so I don't really have a wide-range of experience with such things...
The first girl I was with left me with and incredible lack of self-confidence, extreme trust issues and emotionally crippled me, so I've subscribed to the train of thought that bitches be crazy.
Naw but seriously, I'm so incredibly lonely but I don't want to subject anyone to being in a relationship with me. Even when a girl shows an interest in me I just kind of freak out and hole-up... At my job I get to speak to numerous fine ladies all day erry day, but my social awkwardness keeps me from any kind of fruitful encounter. I can't seem to get into my flow at all... I don't have a problem talking to women, it's just... people in general, you know? ;_;
Since we're sharing, I've been with two. The first relationship lasted roughly a year, and the second lasted about a month. The first girl, was actually really cool and we got along quite well. Ultimately we just had to break it off, but while we didn't talk or see each other often afterward, I've always been able to have a friendly chat with her since then. Second girl was just crazy. Literally nothing bad at all ever happened in that relationship, and yet she slowly extinguished our relationship, and then our friendship, simply out of fear before pinning me as the bad guy. And this was all when I was fully willing and hoping to help her with her issues. After the friendship ended, I hoped that maybe we could try again months later. But it didn't take me long to realize that I'm better off without her.
I had a girlfriend very early in high school; we were together for a few months, give or take. Aaaaaaaaaaand that's about it.
So yeah, it's been about 5-6 years since I've been in a relationship. Man, that is pathetic.
That sinking feeling when you're madly attracted to a girl that already has a boyfriend...

I've been in the same boat for about 2 years now. Don't feel too bad. Nice cute nerdy girl at work. Want it, can't have it.
And yet the two most annoying, overly religious women I work with won't leave me the fuck alone. :wth:
At least you didn't have a thing with a girl who will be married twice before she turns 22. Meh.
Hell, even one failed marriage at that age would scare me away.

That's
exactly what I'm dealing with right now.
In hindsight, workplace romance is never a good idea, so it's probably for the best... but man, I just can't get enough of her. She's so great, and her boyfriend is such a lowlife fucking douche (and I'm not just saying this out of jealousy; I've met the guy, and he really is an asshole), and every time I see them together I just... :burn:
I'm always a step or two behind, man. I don't know how this keeps happening, but it does. Such is life I suppose.
Yeah, seems like every opportunity I've had with a women in the past 6 years has been cut down by something. My schedule, her schedule, friends, some other dude I didn't know about.
And my own idiocy and crippling shallowness, but why blame myself. :blush:
I just feel like the well's getting dry as I get older. All the women I like are disappearing off the market, leaving me with the socially awkward, the white trash, or the overly goody-goody.
Literally every possible girl that would be suitable for me that I meet in my area is taken, so yeah, I know how you feel.
Well don't drop your regular hobbies; you never know when the seemingly random thing you enjoy becomes the thing that attracts your future partner.
I talked a bit about this in the past (http://animationrevelation.com/forum/index.php?topic=90.msg54551#msg54551). Tonight was the last concert at the music venue I work for. And depending on whether or not she's able to work next summer, tonight could have very well been the last time I'd ever see my boss, the girl I have strong feelings for. For weeks now, I'd been trying to figure out what I do and don't want to say to her before the season ends. In the end tonight, rather than tell her how I feel, I decided to just let her go. It would be better for her not to know. There's a chance she'll be back and I'll be working with her again next year, so I don't want any of that getting in the way.

It sucks that she has to be your boss. Otherwise I would be screaming at you to confess to her at this very moment or possibly regret not doing so further down the road.
While I can't speak from experience, having a relationship with a co-worker or boss has got to be a dangerously slippery slope. I would personally try to avoid it.

I haven't seen this post until now. I apologize for that. I'm going to pull a GSF and respond to it late.
At this point it's been just over two weeks since then. I'm actually not sure if it has totally hit me yet. Because funny enough, since the concert season had begun in June, this hasn't even been the longest stretch of time I have gone without working (despite the fact that it's done until next year). I've done a lot of thinking about the time I spent with her, what was said, what wasn't said, and all that. Overall, I feel like I made the right decision by remaining silent about how I feel, but I won't know for sure until next year, when it's absolute whether or not she'll be returning.
But I really do miss Julia. Here's to hoping she'll be back next summer!
why is saying "pull a gsf" so popular?
I can't help but notice that, other than GSF's post, the most recent discussion in this thread is the thing I was dealing with last summer. That's going on again. I wasn't sure if she'd be back this summer, but she is. At this point, we're pretty much well into the concert season again.
I'm surprised it's been so long since I've posted/complained in this thread. Guess that's what Twitter is for.
...........aaaaanyway it's pretty amazing to me how little things can really change over the course of (nearly) two years. I'm still very much single, although I did date a girl for a few months back in Jan-Feb (so at least THAT dry spell has finally busted). It was kiiiiind of a disaster though, she broke up with me after a couple weeks, and now I haven't even been on a date since, with a whole new dry spell creeping in (going on 6 months!). Eyep.
Ah well..........it is what it is, as they say.
