Hey- women will never make sense but there's _always_ a reason we chase. We do a lot of things we despise ourselves for. We learn that we're all broken. We learn it's human nature to want what we can't have. We learn we're a little addicted to being played. We learn whether or not it's better to suffer and play the game than not suffer and not play at all. It can make you sick later in life when you add up all the time wasted on chicks you thought were so great, but then you laugh and realize what else would I have been doing, playing video games? Would I have gotten my PhD in Nuclear Physics, or won the nobel prize?

Trust me Eric, life is too short to be doing anything you despise. I'd rather be doing nothing, then doing something that makes me feel less about myself.

I took a break from dating recently, for about a month or so. I stopped doing things that I used to do, for women. Stopped dressing up, shaving, whatever. Not letting myself go, but just not pandering to what I thought women wanted. I started giving into all my ******* impulses, like not letting cars in, when driving, or telling strangers off when I didn't like what they were doing. It felt so amazingly liberating and awesome. Now that's something to get addicted to ;) Not pain and suffering, trust me :)
 
Girls are crazy, true that. However, they are so frikin cute and sweet sometimes that you can't help yourself.

I was in the same situation a few years back and you know what happened? Another girl came along and I almost forgot about the first. She was pissed and of course wanted me bad after she couldn't have me. Then, over the past couple of years I have gone through a few more and met a girl that is just as crazy. The point is, you will keep moving up through girls until you find one who is really crazy; crazy about you! lol

On a side note, any cute girls out there that do Java/C++ programming and love macs? My GF right now never even had a computer until a year ago! I don't want to leave her, I just want her to make friends with girls that could influence her to become interested in what I'm interested in lol

PS - IMing is the WORST!!!
 
That does not sound complicated at all. It's logistically infeasible to accommodate her. Don't bring her. Problem solved.
Spot on Mark. Floyde I just wanted to remind you that a wedding is often a great place to meet single girls. Leave this girl back at home and mix it up with some new ones at the wedding! ;)

Yeah well, unfortunately Mexican weddings aren't like that. Most people take dates and there's usually just a girl or two that will be there alone. Hopefully they'll be cute this time ;).

Piercey is right though, I should lighten up, this is not such a big deal.

You can met women anywhere. You just have to talk to them. They're people too, and they like casual company as much as you do.
 
... They're people too ...

LOL :D, that's such a bizarre response. I was just saying the exact same thing to a friend just now, except it was a bit more like "Strippers are people too, you know". He was telling me not to go out with a stripper who gave me her number (I didn't ask for it) at his bachelors party. Anyway I was just joking, I don't think it would be a good idea given my situation, she probably just thought I was easy meat or something. She was hot though :eek:

Dude. What do you have to lose exactly? (Just wear a rubber, no STDs! :rolleyes:)

Well, one of the big problems with gender relations is the belief that one sex thinks drastically differently than the other. Something that you would find interesting, flattering or cute, a girl might also find interesting flattering or cute. Too many guys try to come up with a complicated approach, when it can really be as simple as doing something as out of the ordinary as being ordinary.
 
Last update / vent

I just accidentally found out that my "friend" went to Cancun with her "ex"-"boyfriend", and that's why she needed to be back so early on Sunday :rolleyes:. So she basically wanted me to go through all that trouble, just so she wouldn't be late for her little escapade :mad:. Even worse, when she came back, she told me she had gone with one of her high school girlfriends... Yeah right, like any of her friends is going to pay all the expenses for a 4 day trip to Cancun :rolleyes: (she doesn't even have money for the plane ticket, let alone the hotel or all the other expenses). So she not only lied to me, she thinks I'm some ****ing idiot who wont realize this :mad:

Now, she's free to ruin her life in whichever way she chooses, but I think she should've told me of her persistent closeness with this being, so that I could've made the appropriate decision long ago. Instead she flirted with me and refused to completely eliminate the idea of a possible relationship with me in the future. :mad:

Lucky for me, I didn't take her to the wedding. Instead a friend set me up on a blind date with a beautiful, energetic, dance move-teaching woman :cool:. She probably wasn't interested in me or anything, but at least we had a great time (I'm pretty sure she had a great time also).

Let this be a warning for all those people who still believe the friend-zone is escapable...

I know you guys are tired of this relationship stuff, but I just really needed to vent. I'm sorry :eek:
 
Well at least you didn't try to stick around. Drop communication completely, you don't need that.
 
with special regard to post 59

She's a user, a tease and a selfish bitch. You're better off without her. There are far too many girls playing that game with guys who allow it. It's cruel but it happens. Move on. :)

Yeah, the good thing about that last incident is that I no longer have to worry about being a jerk and walking away. Now I can be a jerk and just enjoy myself when she starts missing me, 'cause she will. By then I wont give a $#|+.

I've learned a lot from this though. Now I'm really careful to start dates with something like "So, do you play the fiddle?" :p
 
If you can't catch them by now with the stuff put forth in the thread ...

Lose some weight so you can run faster, otherwise you'll only catch the slow ones.
