'coz girls don't need to go online for relationship talk. know what women, especially ones with no children, do when left alone over coffee? they don't talk about nail polish or clothes (well, not in the main) They talk about relationships.And yet its almost always "girl" problems, why don't the female MR members ever post threads like "boy problems"
eg: Starbucks or similar coffee joint, 4 pm
2 women at small round table
chick #1: "So then Brad told her he'd call and i thought omigod that's it and i couldn't understand how sarah could be such an idiot and not realise he never would but actually she texted me this morning to say that he did call but he said he couldn't do anything this week and they talked for half an hour and do you think he's after a serious relationship after all, I don't think so sarah never seems to get one these days, ever since Jason told everyone at work about what happened that time? did I tell you by the way that I saw Kevin the other day on the way to the video store and omigod my had was a mess, and he is SOOO hot hot hot kinda like Tom Cruise before he went crazy on Oprah' couch ya know? *deep breath* and so I was saying about Kevin, he said I had bedhead, and omigod that is totally a comeon isn't it I mean why would he be talking about beds on sunday morning except if he wants to you know right?
chick2: oh wow yeah totally
...
chick 2's turn: So I was at work trying to copy some stuff for Meena [boss] she is such a cow did you see what she wore at the office party? anyway david walks in and goes, ya need help with that and I go sure even though of course I didn't but I said it anyway .....
lol I can't come up with any more imaginary guys and their dubious behavior right now, it's late here, but you get the idea; for quite a few women, talking about relationships is a bit like a sport, a way to bond, a social lubricant, something inoffensive you can do to get things going; that's why there are appropriate noises to make every time, for instance, if she says 'yesterday he went out all night to watch the football with his mates, men are sooo dumb', you don't respond with, 'well are you dumb because you went the day before yesterday to watch [insert major chick flick title here] with your girlies'. Because that would really mark you out as Not One Of Us. It's often considered the female equivalent of discussing sports or cars for guys. Tbh even though I'm a girl, I don't like feelingstalk a lot, and the sort of conversation like the one above drives me nuts, fast, but ah well, guess it's horses for courses...
My thoughts exactly
.Just 'cause (some) women like talking about relationships doesn't mean we're any better at them. It's just we seem to obsess about them more (well some of us anyway) whereas on average blokes tend to discuss them only when they've got a specific thing (usually a problem) to discuss
dude, that's not emo, that's goth
I reckon it could be someone who's more of a regular here, so the place feels familiar, but they're still too shy to post about their personal stuff under their usual name, poor buggers.
And they do seem rather young, it's true, though maybe not just 14. People tend to sound less coherent when they're going on about sensitive stuff like human relationships, so maybe that's what makes him sounder so much younger.
*holds up knife* "This thread will be hijacked, now"
Okay so I don't really want to make a new thread on this because there has been a lot of them, and I just need some advice on a kind of simple matter.
Throughout this year at college I met some girls, some interesting, some not, and one a stalker. However nothing really worked out for me, so I went back to my ex during winter break (we had a month, and it's been a while since we broke up, but have been talking and decided to give it a try) Turns out she changed for the worse, blah blah, and now I am ready to try and met someone worth while. However, that has been kind of hard to do...
lately in my 8am econ class I notice a girl that was really cute, seemed really smart, and really quiet. The only thing is she sit in the front row, so I can't really talk to her. However I need some interpretations on some signs I noticed. First, she only wears sweat pants and sweatshirts, I really don't know how to take that, like I am taken by someone not here so I don't care, or like she doesn't know how cute she really is? And, again she like only talks in a real quiet tone, and mostly to girls, so I am a little afraid to talk to her, I don't want to seem weird or anything which I will I know me, first encounters are really awkward unless introduced.
With only a couple of weeks left in the semester and a playoff beard going strong, a little self-conscious about it because I don't know if people understand im not lazy or anything it's good luck for hockey players. Sorry if it is a bit long, and too involved, I am just ready to start dating again, and need to know if anyone has any takes, just kind of up in the air about the whole thing... :/

It's an 8am class. If I had an 8am class, you can bet I'd show up in sweats instead of actually getting dressed. heck, I'd be lucky to show up.
Talk to her. Worst case scenario, there is no scenario.
oh sorry I forgot to mention on my random cross-campus adventures I randomly see her, and notice her because she is wearing the same thing, I understand the 8am sweats thing no big deal i do it too, but I do change later. Just wondering if a girl staying like that means anything?
I really think I will talk to her, try maybe thursday and talk about the exam we just had, or maybe something about the final coming up...I don't know haha I am good once I get going, but I have a big fear of coming off weird
yeah it means she likes to be comfortable.
and does not put much into physical appearence. or she could be hiding herself that way and be absolutely gorgeous but really shy.

She is really pretty (I think) so it kind of baffled me. Now-a-days you don't really see girls like that, and I kind of like the fact she isn't wearing a mini skirt and you're able to see her thong.
