Why not?
If I remember correctly, the general reason of Leeness not wanting a relationship is because she's not that big into romance beyond cuddling at the most.
Why not?
"I'm really gone this time" has happened a lot here, so I think a lot of people have "oh, this again" reactions. It's a constant cycle.
I actually don't mind her at all, but the way smiley faces just start appearing in response to her is pretty creepy, dudes.

"People dont think it be like it is, but it do."Say she is genuine which she definitely is not
"People dont think it be like it is, but it do."
I'm hoping you can help me brainstorm
Go-karting
Build a pillow-forts and wage war using paper airplanes
Sneak into a hotel and pretend your guests and use the facilities
Use colored chalk on the side-walk to create a masterpiece together.
Make her dinner
See a movie
Go to the movies
Go to the theater
Go to the opera
Grab a coffee and go for a walk
Play tourist in your town
One of these reminds me of when the probably biggest movie star Norway has walked past me and my at-the-time-girlfriend just playing around in a park. He said "you guys are a beautiful couple!" to which I replied "Thanks! I know!". My girlfriend was like "who was that?" "Oh, just Aksel Hennie".
Agreed
And dont be fooled into thinking that she doesnt want us to talk about it
Otherwise why would she keep mentioning it without being asked
Hey guys, this is my first dating age post!! I've never really posted in this thread mainly because if I ever need help I just consult myself or close friends but it doesn't seem like advice is at all the entirety of this thread's purpose so I decided to check things out and get involved.
Ironically, I did come here looking for some advice on a subject. Hopefully you've seen my previous thread from Saturday regarding my best friend and getting the ball rolling with that because that's exactly the topic I came to this thread to discuss. The advice I'm seeking in question is that of date ideas. Honestly, I already have a first date planned and a couple of people in my circle say they like the idea. I'm not really here to talk about that idea more as I'm here to get ideas for subsequent dates whether they be with her or someone else. I like my dates to be personal and creative. Simplicity and complexity in my dates are just determined by how I'm feeling about life and the person at the moment so there really no limit to any suggestions you guys have for me. I'm hoping you can help me brainstorm because I truly love this girl and I want to be able to show her in anyway possible. Truth be told I've always held her in higher regard than the women I've been with and loved and now that I've made a chance to possibly be with her I'd like to not undermine it in anyway.
I didn't mention anything. I posted in here because sometimes I do, that I wanted someone to hug, so I hugged my cat. That's all. Because every once in a while a hug would be nice.
And this created such a tizzy of confusion terror apparently.
If I post in here without mentioning that I'm happy, then I get "oh you poor thing you must be so sad"
If I mention I'm happy, then I get "wow you're just lying to yourself there's no way you're happy".
So...what. Either I'm miserable, or a liar, or both. I don't know.
I like watching you guys go about your life and date and whatever. It's interesting to me. But if I inspire so much agitation, then I will just lurk.

Ugh, yeah, avoid using smileys until you're friends or something with a girl.

There was like absolutely zero flirty about either texts there, so someone is acting weird hereUgh, yeah, avoid using smileys until you're friends or something with a girl.
That got me in "trouble" at work. Some girl that works at dispatch where I get my assignements sends me whatsapp messages to know where I will be headed.
I got a "Morning, city hall meeting 10AM, good luck".
Replied with a "Got it, I'll send you the audio and the report."
Then I heard from a trusty male co-worker that she was creeped out because I "acted way too flirty".
Well fuck, the next day I get another smiley and I just replied with a "Got it". As days go by, I'm less interested about interacting with women, I know men have bad reputation, but I don't go around thinking that I want to fuck every female in the planet earth. Egh.

I dunno man. First it's smiley's, then the next thing you know, they're sending nudes back and forth.
I rarely see the smiley faces busted out for dudes. Treat everyone the same, etc.Are you seriously inferring something from the use of a smiley face used to dismantle a situation wherein a person's been under constant scrutiny for basically a whole page? Get out of here with that stuff.

Oh fuck, that means I installed Snapchat for nothing? Bummer.I said I was sorry! It sounded like you wanted them.
Completely misread the situation.
Well, I'd probably carry myself like this: http://www.theonion.com/articles/report-only-20-minutes-until-introverted-man-gets,35507/I don't really know if I like the idea of a party date, but if she asks I'm not going to say no. So how do you carry yourself at a party date?

Regular smilies constitute flirting now? I must be a real player because I'm always sendingto girls, lol. Just goes to show how it easy it is for people to misinterpret things.
Actually, a lot of the things you listed are dates for people already in an established relationship. Making dinner is a strong move for a first date. Building pillow forts or drawing on sidewalks - absolutely no girl is going to want to do that and might even judge your harshly on the first one unless she has already decided she wants to bang your brains out and so will say yes to whatever you suggest. Actually, in that case, the pillow fight is a great suggestion, because it's a good segue into sex.
My advice to the guy is not to over think it. There's nothing wrong with an unoriginal date like a movie or getting a drink or dinner or whatever. Maybe a comedy club or some other show not called an opera.
Oh Septimius, behaveeeeeeeeeeeeeee. ;0![]()

Wondering if you guys have anything to say about a girl who never texts first?
Newish fling going on with a girl. Very fresh, very new. Went on a few successful dates. She came over to my place for the first time last weekend and we had a great night. She invited me over to her place this weekend, as well.
Just getting a little nervous because I'm noticing that I am initiating ALL the text conversations. The texting is good, though. Long replies, flirty, lots of joking and laughing. She was even the one to suggest I come over this weekend.
Is she one of those girls that just likes to be texted first no matter what? Surely if there was some more interest she would initiate some of the time, no?
Makes it frustrating because I am never sure how much I should be texting her. Don't want to come off clingy or anything.

I mentioned how things ended between an EMT girl and myself (volunteer firefighter) a few weeks ago. In about a month and a half, my fire department is having it's installation of head Chief dinner. Each member is allowed to bring a date for free. I wanted to bring her, but things ended and I've started to move on. I'd like to bring a date, but at the same time, I'm most likely going to get pretty drunk with the actual firefighter buddies (guys who have more than 5 fires under their belt0s, I have less than one (slow year)). I'm interested in a few women, but I'm not too sure if it's smart to bring a girl I just started dating to a shitshow fire department dinner dance.
Should I just go stag and meet a lady, as I'm heavily intoxicated at a party afterwards, or try for a classmate I've been interested in for some time? I know I'd have to start hanging with her now, but should things work out, should I ask her out for that night even though it would be around Finals Week?
It's a month and a half away. Why not the girl you talked about out, now? Then it'll probably be much more natural to bring her there, and you can even relax and drink. It doesn't sound like a good first date, however, and you have tons of time to do something with this girl, now. Get some good dates in with that girl, then you can feel the situation out
I've really thought about that. She was in a class with me last semester and seems really great, but Spring Break just started and I won't see her for another week. Three weeks from now I'm supposed to respond with a +1 or 0 for the dinner.
I don't have her number yet. I started legitimately talking to her today, rather than joking with the classmate and shooting the shit with her like I was last semester because I was seeing the other girl. In fact, I don't know her name. That's embarrassing. Adding to all of that, and to reiterate it, Spring Break just started, and I won't see her for another week. Oh and she's also an 18 year old (maybe 19) freshman. I'm a 22 year-old super junior.
Well, then you have two weeks!Just keep building that rapport, and get something going. I can't recommend it as a first date, though, as that should be about getting to know each other, not being set in a social situation that might make the situation uneasy. If it's nowhere in three weeks, just don't bring a +1. Sounds like tons of fun without a date.
It totally is. I'm excited either way, but I've learned since things fell through with the EMT girl that I want a relationship. I'm tired of the 1-3 month flings I have. I want a stable relationship. I'm simply worried that bringing an early girl (1-3 months into a dating cycle) will be turned off by the machismo, ego, and misogynistic attitude that comes with the culture of firefighting in the Northeast.
I'll figure it out. I go through periods of depression, self-hate, and vulnerability after any type of breakup. That where I was when I previously posted in this thread. I just need to move on from it, learn from it, and have fun.
Thanks again for taking the time out to respond to me the past few weeks. You've given me a whole new perspective on things. GAF and I are so lucky to have such insightful people like yourself.
Yeah, self-doubt is a normal reaction to a break-up. It's when we allow ourselves to grow from that experience, instead, that have it blossom into something good. I still couldn't recommend depression and self-hate, of course. I'm just curious as to what triggers it, so I might be completely off here. Is it the blow to the self-esteem that does it? Or is it a fear of not finding someone? I know those feelings, and they can be hard to deal with. What's worked excellently for me, since my ex broke up with me, has been to meet new people and engage myself. The general reaction I get to being myself to others is a bigger boost to my self-image than my girlfriend was. That's been a huge eye-opener to me. I've realized I want to socialize to feel complete.
Thank you. Really. I still feel a bit more frail than I normally am, after the break up. I allow myself to be more vulnerable with that in this thread, and to open up about how I feel and process through things. That makes such comments all the more heart-warming, in return. So thank you.
Wait so using a smiley constitutes a flirt? I use smileys all the time everywhere and never get shit for it about flirting. That's a rather gross misinterpretation if the conversation's tone isn't romantic.
Go back and look at ameratsu post. Now maybe one can see that what comes closest to inappropriate behavior was the reaction to it.
What? I don't follow your post
We talked on the phone for another hour and a half last night and we are having a hard time hanging up. The plan is to have a dinner date Saturday night and I get to see her place and meet her cat whom I have already seen pictures of with a Batman shirt on. I asked her out again by saying "So, I'm thinking we should have dinner pretty soon." She totally agreed. Not trying to count my chickens before they hatch here but it is blatantly obvious that there are mutual feelings this time and I am excited to see where this is going to lead.
That's awesome news. Way to go!
No. It's just in context with how it happens every time a certain person goes down a bit of a spiral. Once you see the loop over and over, it becomes a thing.Wait so using a smiley constitutes a flirt? I use smileys all the time everywhere and never get shit for it about flirting.
