Ha...Ithaca, you're not making a great first impression on me because you've kinda said some mean things to people who've been here longer than you, which is not a great way to introduce yourself to a new board - just a little tip there - but I'll say that you are 100% right about that. I learned early on that boys would pay attention to me if I flirted with them, and that's good for my self-esteem, and now it's just kindof the way I do things. And yeah, Praxy, it does sometimes end up causing problems for me too. Honestly, most boys are pretty good at understanding that I have a boyfriend and I'm just flirting, and most boys think it's fun to idly flirt with girls and know that it's just harmless fun. But sometimes guys get the wrong idea.
Met two girls I've dated online, which I actually used to be morally opposed to. But I guess with the amount of time I've wasted online, it's bound to happen. And no, actually in both cases the transition happened really smoothly. In one case the girl already had a boyfriend and I didn't make my move untill later, but nah, crossing the line isn't as hard as some people make it seem. You just keep pushing a few boundries, turn up the heat, and let things go where they go. I'm just talking from personal experience though. I'm not really all that smooth.
That's always the cunundrum. Sexual attraction is firy, based on physical desire, and you have to seize the moment of carnal desire before you can ever really get know each other. And then you wake up next to him/her in the morning after a Vegas wedding and say, "But I don't even like this person."
When you say something spot on, it's spot on whether people like you or not. *shrugs* Did I mention I have no respect for the pecking order? Nice to meet you by the way.
Well my charms pretty subtle is all. It's not all at the surface, We're friends, we're laughing having fun, then we're naked in a hot tub.
That's what I meant by rebound factor. I don't like rebound flings. First of all the woman is in an alternate mindstate where she is very succeceptable to being picked up. Also, you can never really tell if she's genuine. She might just be in it for the rebound fuck. I'd rather find something deeper. I have options I don't need to fuck every woman I see.
It's not a question of pecking order, really. It's a question of saying things about people before you know them. I've seen you say at least one thing to one other person that was not spot on, and you would know it if you bothered to get to know that person at all; so it was kindof a lame thing to say. (Not naming names because it's not really my bone to pick.) In my case you were completely accurate, but in other cases you weren't. Nice to meet you too, possibly. You might turn out to be one of those people who makes a bad first impression but means well. We do try to find things to like about people here.
i DO need my cupboard cleaned out. there's can's of spinach and stuff like that in there...some old bread...
