I met an Australian girl (she's really sweet) in Shanghai who was doing a world tour after she graduated from university. We added each other on Whatsapp and Facebook. She outright told me that it sometimes takes her really long to reply to messages (even though the first days she mostly replied immediately). Like at least a month would pass until she replied but she always does reply and even apologizes for the minor inconvenience that it causes to me. Still, I appreciate her attitude and hope to see her again some time.

I think I had it enough with the other 'friend'. That relationship we have feels quite one sided and I just want to make things clear if she really appreciates me or not. I planned to make her into an asset for future networking since she clearly has the potential for bigger things and is also very ambitious. I just don't want to get emotionally attached to the wrong people...again.

fair enough :p theres so much subtext in relationships and stuff that the same thing with two different people can feel completely different

I tend to be sorta defensive though with situations like that since sometimes i have issues responding to people and stuff due to anxiety. I have like 12 conversations between skype and text that i've ignored from the past week and a half due to all of that being overwhelming -_-

Ok, I'm mildly annoyed/pissed to a certain degree. A person who called herself a friend of mine once just can't be bothered to text back after a whole fucking day. I mean yes, it's simple political small talk but at least have the decency to reply because you certainly have the time to upload some shitty pictures on Instagram, don't you? People these days simply lack manners...

Fuck it, I feel way too offended by that shit than I should pay much attention to it :mad:

I dunno, I'm of two minds. Sometimes I don't want to text someone back and I also don't want to text them back "don't text me im in a fuckin' mood" so I just let it hang there for way too long and look like a flake.

Also, some people just don't want to talk politics. That shit sucks.

I'm probably the worst friend, because I actually like it when someone's not pestering me with texts and shit. Ask anyone who's pm'd me here on GAF I hardly ever reply.

Let's see how long it takes me to chicken out of talking to my crush today

I'm betting on YOU CAN DO EEET

Just walk up and be like "hey, wanna get coffee after work? you're hot, I'm hot, we're both young and virile, and I am on the fence about suckin' toes and eatin' ass"

It's not about the coffee man, get a tea or a smoothie instead.

It's about a neutral, non-committal outside of work social engagement. Y'all can shoot the shit in a casual way without paying too much money.

It's what we used to do before Tinder.

OR

you can just ask her to go and eat caramels with you

if you think about it, it's just as arbitrary as asking someone to get coffee with you

@marrec: The ridiculous aspect of this is she really is into politics. Her mother is a former ambassador to the US and we used to talk about the US elections since she has the better insight into the whole process.

I guess I just need to learn how to cope with it. I used to be waaaaaaaay more patient and resourceful but my anxiety issues changed me in the wrong way (I got colder but also kind of more confident in the meantime, while my former self wouldn't risk a fight I don't take shit from anyone anymore). Hope I can retrieve those god traits somehow :/

nah, I just like the movie.

I do think I'd get along great with him though. Same with Holden Caulfield. (assuming these were real people). I like complicated jerks.

just kidding, I'm not a quick learner. I'm actually slow/dumb, but somehow I seem to come across to others as intellectual. It's weird

and if she just thought I needed treatment then I think she's doing some stuff they don't teach in nursing school (and if they do teach it, I want to go to nursing school now)

physical training I think. working out.

tonight I'm going to watch the season 1 finale to the americans. things got extremely real these past few episodes.

I'm also so curious about where this next episode of game of thrones is going to go. This season is already so much better than the last.

I haven't seen it in a really long time but I remember thinking he was pretty obnoxious

BTW my friend is attending harvard, she did voice acting in my game. she's all excited because the president's daughter is going to be attending in 2017.

I wonder if the regular people at harvard have any chance of meeting her or if she'll just be surrounded by an entourage and SS agents and stuff at all times

Ok that did come out sounding sliiightly sadder than I'd intended >_>

I mean I wouldn't say I really have low self-esteem as such, more that I'm not going to be the best at first impressions I guess? Like the majority of the time that I say this stuff it's not exactly serious, I think I just go overboard with the self-deprecation at times.

I mean I'm pretty ok with who I am. I'd prefer it if I had a bit less of social anxiety so I wouldn't completely blank when talking to people I don't really know, but otherwise I think I'm generally cheerful and can get along well with people. It's just the initial hump that I have any problem with really.

that's nothing to brag about.

people really shouldn't equate their worth with whether they are romanticaly entangled or not.

totally get that. I get a bit intimidated with meeting new people that I actually think will be worth a damn

but 90% of the time, I think most people are not really even worth the effort so I don't bother.

Do you even know what the purpose of a wingman is?

what does that have to do with worth? I'd be jealous if he had a doughnut

jealousy implies wanting something you lack. something you lack implies need. something you need implies fulfillment.

you don't need to be romantically involved.
