I don't ask for relationship advice on this board for the same reason I wouldn't ask a poor man how I should invest my money. He doesn't have any, so how would he know?
What are you guys talking about? This is a Sports BBS & over 97% of the members here are male. You could probably list all the female posters on the board with your fingers! There are not enough ladies over here for every one of you/your questions on this board... that's WHY! p.s. Jackie's posts are funny... kind of reminds me of - 'Jackie Chan' ... hehe
g) Girls neither like poor men nor Internet nerds who post on a BBS . unless they are married to them
My web-site does have pictures on it. Anyway, where in Germany do you live? My brother is about to move there.
No pictures on the page linked to in your profile...only two broken images? I am from Bonn. Is your brother in the military? Do you know where he is moving?
bah. yeah, he's in the army. I dont really know much more than he's moving to Germany. My uncle was also stationed there a zillion years ago.
Germany's freaking awesome. My dad was in the Army and we lived there for seven years (three in Frankfurt and four in Stuttgart). I miss Germany a lot, especially around Chirstmas time...
Bah. C) is the answer. Drew, It all comes down to what the motivation behind #2 is. Could just be age and immaturity, but the level of that is what could make or break things for you. I'm kind of dealing with the same thing right now...except that I already know my situation isn't the right thing for me. Still, all the things I do like make it difficult to pass up. I'm going to get screwed over at some point, but hey, what can you do. Immaturity is a problem, but it can be worked around. Worry if the periods of non-contact or talking about other groups is just guilt peeking out, trying to give you some kind of warning without actually saying it. 1. isn't a problem. 3. Is a little superficial, but I've seen much, much worse.
The problem with this so-called "game" is that I ALWAYS lose - and if I dont lose I end up with a psychotic freak. I can play it cool at first, but usually lose my patience for games after a month or so (which is where we are now). I dont know how much longer I can keep this up......
Do you really think that you are the "loser" of these games, Drew? What if one of these biyotches runs into you 5 years from now and sees how successful you are and that you are like Daddy Warbucks now. Then you can turn to her and say "You know, baby, you could have hooked up with the Drewdog at one time in your life but you wanted to play games. Guess what? I am playing a game with you right now and I just blew your ass out!! GAME OVER, ROOKIE!! (sorry for the TJ line but couldn't help it)" Of course, I have thought about how sweet it would be to do that to some ex, but I have not gotten the opportunity to do that yet as I am still waiting on the Daddy Warbucks part.
You gotta know when to hold em, know when to fold em, know when to walk way, and know when to run... you never count yo money when ya sittin at the table there'll be time enough for countin when the dealin's done.
Drewdog. As I always say when these questions come up, you have to take control of your own happiness. If you think this girl is a good one tell her. I know how your stomach gets tight, you get sorta short of breath, the blood leaves yours arms but just do it. At the end of your next date, at her door, you just come right out and say " (insert name here) you know we've been dating for a while now and I really have a good feeling about you. I would like to take this relationship to a more intimate place, I was thinking we could maybe date exclusively for a while and see how that goes" She will either say yes and invite you in or she will say "Drewdog, I really like going out with you but I'm not ready to make that kind of committment to you yet" If she does #2 you just have to buck up your ego, and tell her " good night for now but think about it." Then leave, she may call you later. If you want to go out with her for fun you still can, but if your looking for more you move on. By the way, for a 27 year old, I think the eHarmony thing could be a good deal. You are assured some compatability and the girls are looking for relationships not just dating. Be a man, take control, don't be intimidated!
I always find that a good strong shaggin will put the fixins on any relationship. And when she gets sore, try some ecstacy taken in the presence of a licenced psychologist or unlicenced shaman.
Manny - Great attitude to have about the situation, but its easier said than done you know..... Gene - Said advice, but it may be to early to lay that on her. Im going to wait another 3 weeks or so and see how things progress... I hate the game. I still hate the game. I still really hate the game.
You should never date a girl who does not offer to pay, even if it's only a perfunctory gesture. Think of all the possible reasons why she doesn't and they all lead to something bad or at a minimum, impolite.
We almost always lose the game, man. Sad thing is we think we can actually win it in the beginning, then suddenly BAM we're throwing in the towel. In fact, among my friends its become something of a joke; when one of us is starting get involved with a girl, we break out the Triple H tagline: Time To Play The Game. I've just realized that, after putting up a good fight, I'm on the losing path...so I've been a little bummed lately. The game sucks.
