Title: My social life problem can anyone help
Post by: Cyberleader2000 on 14 January, 2011, 08:22:07 PM
Ok so I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to interacting with others  so I decided to ask a bunch of strangers I know little about that sounds sain ok here goes I've been volunteering at a charity shop to give me something to do any how there's this amazing women there and I have been chatting to her for a few weeks now I find that whenever I have spare time down there she's chatting to me not that I don't mind but whenever I come in she makes a nice comment saying that I look like I've lost weight any way I just thort she was being polite till last time I was in the shop and I mentioned I might be leaving to do a aprintership courses at which point she nearly started crying and was super depressed  and saying that she would miss me and how me going there brightened up her day now I'm not good at interacting with people in the real world in fact I'm down right bloody hopeless  my friend thinks that she has a crush on me but seeing as I've never even gone a date before I cannot tell so here's my 2 questions

1 is there any way to confirm if my friend is right?

2 if they are right is there any advises you lot can give

Now that I'm done embarrassing myself I think I will go hide somewhere for a few Weeks

Ask her if she wants to go for a drink after work some day (assuming you drink?) If she likes you, I'm sure she'll find the time. Don't need to call it a date, just call it a couple of folk who get on having a drink and a chat, maybe it'll lead to something more, maybe not, if not, so be it. What's the worst that can happen?  If she doesn't fancy it, well, you're going for an apprenticeship anyway, you'll meet new folk through that.

Excellent advice Greg M. In a nutshell be yourself and dont try to be anything different if she likes you she likes you for who you are, which is the best possible way it could go.

Go luck ! :) *Uninstalls DearDeidreDroid Impant*

You can always ask her to a coffee shop less threatening maybe. And good luck. If she says no well she was never interested and you're better off knowing now than wasting time pining for unrequited love.

Post by: locustsofdeath! on 14 January, 2011, 08:47:26 PM
Whatever you do, DON'T write her a love letter. If you must go that route, use a recorder.

Seriously, just ask her out. What have you got to lose? The worst she can say is no, but then at least you won't have to always wonder if she liked you. I'm really shy, and luckily a friend of mine found out I had a crush on my wife and worked on it for me or else I'd never have even spoken to the love of my life - don't depend on someone else, just go for it! Good luck!

At worst she says no at best she says yes if you don't ask you will never know and always wonder what if!

If she says no you are  leaving anyway and won't have to wonder......if she says yes you have gained something you didn't have  goodluck! Let us know how it goes
Title: Re: My social life problem can anyone help
Post by: SmallBlueThing on 14 January, 2011, 09:14:45 PM
Yeah, just ask her out. She likes you, that much is obvious, so its only a question of how much. Enough to go out for a drink with you is a good sign, if she says yes.
I know nothing about you, despite what you post here, and nothing whatsoever about her, so its up to you to make that move. If you're paralysed with nerves at the thought of asking her for a drink, then perhaps just tell her that. Be yourself, as she likes you anyway, a quarter of the battle's already won.

And buy a new shirt and new underpants for any date that may arise. That is very, very important.

I don't know, what with this and peter wolf's recent posts, im rubbing my hands together in anticipation of an uncoming thread of 'bumsex girl' proportions!

Sound advice so far.  Just ask her if there's anything between you both.  Realistically, the worst that can happen is there isn't and she's just depressed and likes having someone around she can talk to.

Do bear in mind all this advice is coming from people internetting at half nine on a Friday rather than out tapping ass, though.

That said, I had a big Bram Stoker/ Bela Lugosi/ Peter Cushing/ Vincent Price geek-out on mine and my wife's first date- and a few years later we named our children after those gentlemen. So it's entirely possible we could all be toasting little Gundam 2000's long life and happiness somewhere down the road.

Fair play to you.

I only asked cus in my job i end up seeing strange name people have called their kids(not that yours is strange i assure you).

Princess,Precious,Godess,Missing & Merry are this months tops.

Also had a Chardonay.

And rumours of Latrine & Clamidiya (although these did appear in a list of stupid names in a paper a few years back and i haven't seen em myself)

Without wishing to derail Cyb's thread, mine are called Bram Vincent Helsing and Bela (pronounced, as it should be, "Bailer" with an accent on the 'e') Price Cushing.

If we'd've had a third- I dunno- Boris Chaney Shreck would probably have been in the running!  :)

What do you feel about her ?

Do you like her and do you chat ?

This is very important and if you dont like her or you are not looking to have a girlfriend then there is no point in meeting up but on the other hand there is nothing to lose in meeting up to find out more but there may be a reason other than that as to why she is clinging to you.

You should've seen my wife's list! No, we went through hundreds of names before settling, as I think most people do. For a long time I was quite keen on Django Bam-Bam for our first, and Lon or Pan for our second.

People have an irrational fear of giving their children names that will result in them being bullied. The truth of the playground is that bullies will pick on kids for anything- buck teeth, a chance remark, silly hair, size, anything. Even if you call a boy "John", chances are when he's six Eastenders will feature a very camp gay serial maneater called John, and that'll be that.

Sorry for derailing the thread further, but the other day my daughter (who's 4) discovered the Best Of Bootsy CD on the shelf and was utterly baffled as to why it showed a picture of a boy. It took me an hour to convince her she was still a girl.

Django = awesome.

A slight refinement might be suggesting a few people are going out for drinks but trail the hook that it could always be slimmed down to 2 people. It might be having a few people around might make it less awkward and, if things go well, the two of you could split off - I'd imagine if the two of you are getting on like a house on fire the others might make their excuses and you'd transition nicely into it being the two of you having a drink. Just don't use the presence of the other people to dodge talking to her out of awkwardness - they are there as you wingmen ;)

I disagree, Emperor. I reckon asking her out just as the two of you shows you're much more interested in getting to talk to her and know her (I gather women appreciate it somehow when you show a direct interest in what they think, bless 'em), so I think inviting her out as part of a group is pretty intimidating.
I'd just ask her if she fancied meeting you after work for a couple of drinks and a spot of grub - somewhere quiet ish where you could both have a good conversation, and see where that leads.

Aye, I was about to say the same thing. A film's fine if you're already dating, or if you're combining it with some grub or something, but you want a situation where you have the chance to talk for a bit. Maybe the coffee shop idea that was suggested earlier?

The cinema is really second date material unless you are confident enough for some back row hijinks, so no. If you don't want drinkies then the best thing is food, perhaps a lunch type of thing to test the water and perhaps once you know how the land lies then go for the cinema. You could mix the lunch up a bit with an art gallery or museum visit. Keep it light and fun, with plenty of opportunity to test the water. If it works out well you could always roll on to the cinema later. Just play it by ear.

Oh and never make the same mistake as me - I don't like tea or coffee and have massively dropped the ball once when asked back for coffee. "Well I'm no fan of coffee but I'd be up for anything else" will suffice.

Well that exact situation never cropped up again but you basically accept any invitation to get through the front door (unless if involves testicle handcuffs) and then you can ask if they have something else like hot chocolate or a cold drink, if it ever really gets as far as that. Or just learn to cope with tea, a sugar and plenty of milk makes it palatable enough, even if you'd never pick it as a choice. Its just not about the drink ;)

I'm glad Emperor (and the rest of you!) are here to give advice: I was starting to feel that my frankly woeful record on the subject of romance was leading to a scenario equivalent to that time in 'Father Ted' when Father Dougal is put in charge of a funeral. ;) I was anticipating a post tomorrow saying "Greg, I listened to your advice... and she caught fire and exploded!"

It sounds like we are probably the last two people who should be giving advice then.  :o

The only thing I can say, is that I have found so many different ways to drop the ball that at least I can help head those off at the pass. The danger is that it might result in him finding some truly spectacular ways to make everything go wrong. I'd rather avoid stories that end "... and that is how I lost my foreskin in the pencil sharpener."

I may just throw in random nuggets from now on:

Some bras open at the front - the general moral of this lesson is: if you are reduced to tears by the fastening of a lady's garments ask her nicely to take it off (or just tell her to in a stern voice if she is into that). Crying before sex is even less of a turn-on than weeping afterwards.

Are you sure they just didn't put a middle name on the birth certificate, and so therefore it was "missing"?

Perhaps they lost it somewhere ?

It's simple really... she likes you, you're leaving.

You say shes upset at you leaving, just suggest that you keep in touch, exchange numbers and perhaps go out for a coffee before you go... or out for a drink... no shame in just drinking wine, not many girls are the pinting it type so sharing a bottle of wine might actually act in your favour.

How long have you got before you leave???

Get more chatty with her in the time you have before you go.. I got to know my girlfriend through chattin on facebook (we have a mutual friend... I wasn't stalking her!) and when we actually met for the first time we knew each other quite well and have been together for over a year with no sign of things slowing down.. i'm happier now than I've ever been.

Just take a chance, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

If you don't drink alcohol and don't drink tea or coffee, but you do eat at McDonald's, then McDonald's is probably an okay place to invite her out to, especially if it's close to work. A good follow up would be to ask her if she'd like to come out with you again the next week or possibly even sooner.

Yes this always a good idea as people's personal circumstances can change quickly - you never want to tell a woman you love them (when you do not as a ruse), only to be introduced to the guy standing just behind her as her new boyfriend (or worse, snogging a young lady in the middle of the pub only to find out her new fella was only a couple of feet away and becoming increasingly unhappy by the second - it did amuse my friends though). So check, perhaps discretely ask someone else if you don't know.

She may really like you and will miss you when you leave but if she is seeing someone else then at best (or worst) things things could get complicated.

Well as long as it is sweet not sweat (which puts a different spin on it ;) ) then it is a good sign. Your ideal follow up would have been to ask her what her type is. If she says "large bikers" you might have to reassess your options, if it was "someone like you" then you're in. It does mean the competition is out of the way, which is good, although don't let it be an excuse to not cut to the chase with the young lady.

I was once crazy about a guy at work and had no idea how he felt about me. I was only there for a 9 month casual appointment so I got increasingly miserable at the thought of leaving as the end approached. I decided (after much encouragement from my friends) to ask everyone at work to the pub at the end of my appointment and happily found that no-one wanted to go except my Object of Passion. So he turned up and I had a few friends about so he didn't feel pressured and we had a briliant time. I then invited him out to a goth nightclub and he said yes. I was of course looking absolutely fantastic that night, being a young goth chick at the time (I'm an old one now hahahhahahaha). He still acted shy at the club so I got drunk and leapt on him (literally - I was dancing on a podium at the time).

We were together 4 years so that worked out quite well really. :)

So go for it as much as possible Cyberleader as you haven't got a lot to lose and quite a bit to win.

Heed their words, Cyberleader.

Strike while the iron is hot. She has shown some interest so show interest in her. She obviously likes you enough to whimper over the fact that you are leaving, so you won't exactly be ****ing in the wind.

These situations don't last forever and you will be kicking yourself if you never went for it.

I stress, this is not coming from an expert – quite the opposite – but from what you have told us it seems pretty clear cut.

Just remember three things Cyberleader:

1. Don't be fat.
2. Don't be ugly.
3. Don't be poor.

Seriously though, a café/restaurant is, as others have mentioned, a good idea. Also good is something interactive like bowling or going to the zoo which will generate things to talk about if you dry up on conversation.

Although if she's fat, ugly and poor it improves the odds in your favour.

Bowling is an excellent idea for a second date. Get her to McDonald's, then ask her if she'd like to go bowling with you at the weekend or the following week. If a girl won't go bowling with you it definitely means she's not interested.

Or she might be a bit funny about feet and or wearing rental shoes, trust me all it takes is a little toe that looks like a baby bird and BOOM all bets are off.

Of course, you need to be careful about museums and art galleries, the last exhibition I went to had Picasso's "The Charnel House" and "The Rape of the Sabine Women" which might be mood breakers ;)

Or, better, get someone to look over a draft of it and then the actual message should be fine.

ok I plan to write it in word then once its spelt checked copy it down by hand then drop the letter in on my way to a job apoiment tomorrow but I did drop the ball as she was saying how my make was kind of stalkerish and I happened to say that's because he has a crush on her and she asked me if she should give him a charnce to where I responded and I'm going to shout myself because of this "its up to you" so I decided I should drop the letter in tomorrow also what has spared this idea on is that she hinted at me putting one of theas messages in the window asking matt do you want to write anything about me (thro I'm not shure if she was joking or not) thro my second idea is go in pay to put up a window note and give her a letter saying go look out front so she will see the message in the window opiouns pleases.

Personally, I feel you are over-complicating things by writing a letter, Cyberleader, and the more complicated you end up making it the more potential there is for things to go askew. Letters are very permanent, you may end up writing something that gives a different impression from what you meant - I don't really think it's the best idea. Keep it simple. Ask her verbally to go for lunch / food / something. I'm guessing you're finding that a bit daunting, but honestly, I do believe it is the better option.

Not a letter. Seriously - not a letter.
Just talk to the girl. The worst that can happen is she'll turn you down.
As long as you're prepared for that possible eventuality and accept it with good grace if it does happen, then just bloody talk to her.

This is all so complicated. Just ask her out and get it over with. Odds are good you'll succeed. Invite her out for a nice meal. Don't go anywhere too cheap or too expensive.

If you don't act soon, your "mate" probably will.

I can't believe you are still pussyfooting around.
It' clear she has an interest in you. Get in there and mark your territory otherwise I may come along and bash your heads together.

Why is it that the male is expected to make the first move anyway? Surely in these equality times the women should be doing their bit instead of waiting to be woo'ed.

Just reading through this and I concur with my fellow boarders - forget the letter, its a waste of time and there is too much potential for her to get the wrong impression from something you write or mis-interpret your meaning.

Just ask her to her face if she wants to hang out sometime. Yes = she's interested, anything else = she's not. Simples.

Stop fannying about lad, it's painful.

You talk to her anyway and all you are doing by mulling it over and going over things in your head, is giving the wrong impression of disinterest (which, if done right, can make you seem cool and alluring, but in this case I suspect not- nae offense).
You're building it up too much in your own head, turning a molehill into a mountain causing yourself self-doubt and anxiety.

Really, you're no different from anyone else- even the guys who seem at ease talking to women are a bit nervous- it's a perfectly natural feeling, they're just better at coping with it than you are. At the end of the day, there's nothing complicated about it- they are only people, not aliens and they are as different from each other as they are from you or I.


Take the bull by the fucking horns and talk to her before some glib shagger does.

first off lol and for everyone's info I was about to ask her yesterday when bad timing interfered as at the time she was carrying in a box full of plates, glasses, and other such breakable things to put out on the shelf (I thort I could ask her whilst she most relaxed and that's when she sorting out the shelf's) but as she was carrying the box in the bottom gave way and then CRASH!!!!!! there was glass every where luckily only a 3rd of the stock was broken but she the sort of person who stresses over whether she's said the wrong thing to someone so she was pratickily in heresticks after that and I spent the rest of the day trying to carm her down and felt that maybe it was not quit the right time to ask but I'm back there tomorrow so I will try again and even better news my mate who works there if off for the weak.

Next time you're in the shop...just tell her she looks hot and that you're attracted to her and if she would like to go for a drink...she might say no...fair enough...she might say yes...result

Give her your digits and you're away

People always try and make things complicated...women are exactly the same as men...same hopes fears and insecurities...I realised that from a young age and have been taking advantage ever since  ;)

One tip...talk to her at the end of the shift...that way if you do get knocked back you can just go home and cry :D

Tenterhooks darling, tenterhooks and no heresticks from you either


QuoteIt comes from one of the processes of making woollen cloth. After it had been woven, the cloth still contained oil from the fleece, mixed with dirt. It was cleaned in a fulling mill, but then it had to be dried carefully or it would shrink and crease. So the lengths of wet cloth were stretched on wooden frames, and left out in the open for some time. This allowed them to dry and straightened their weave. These frames were the tenters, and the tenter hooks were the metal hooks used to fix the cloth to the frame.

Write a letter in your own blood, semen and tears detailing exactly how you will messily kill yourself if she rejects you, then deliver it by hand and kneel in front of her, sobbing, as she reads it.

Either that or ask her if she wants to go to the pictures tomorrow night. It's up to you really.

And, when you do, don't forget to tell her how you've spent the last two weeks discussing her and your romantic dilemma with a bunch of complete strangers on the internet.

She would really enjoy knowing that, and it would make her feel very special indeed, I'm sure.

You can't give anyone a bunch of flowers that cost £2. It's insulting. Especially if you're trying to ask a girl out.

You don't leave the bloody price lable on you fool...

Likewise you don't turn up with a clarly V exspensive bunch either...

he should aim for "nice" not overwhelming...

That's like buying a bloody engagement ring on the 2nd date

I'm not suggesting he'd leave the price tag on. I just can't believe that any bunch of flowers you can get for £2 would be much cop.

Ask her out.  It is a win win situation.  If she says yes you get to go out.  If she says no you have gained experience in asking women out and the next will get a bit easier.  Just my opinion feel free to ignore :-)

Well mother buys them for the house occasionally... they manage to last just over a week and add a small spash of colour... Not bad for £2.

(Also, she might not have a vase for a larger bunch ... whereas something that size could be put on a hi ball glass and not look odd.)

Although you might find a nice looking cheap vase IN the charity shop.

(Just check it over first for no chips & cracks)

NEVER buy tulips... they droop and the petals fall off within 48 hours....

stick to carnations, freesias, chrsanthamums, sweet peas, roses (Which willl last with the right treatment) sweet williams lilies...

Pay the extra to get some cut flower food (30p) it's worth it they last a lot longer.

If it makes you more comfortable you can always take some Transformers toys with you and play out at a bar some massive Autobots v Decepticons (I had to look those names up on Wikipedia) battle scene with sound effects and you could sing out aloud the "Transformers, robots in disguise" theme.

If she doesn't like you as you are, then she is the one who is missing out.

don't ask about hanging out, or seeing each other sometime. ask her out on a date.

the worst she can say is no -- you have to be willing to face and gracefully accept rejection if you want to date.

She wants you to ask her out, she knows you have a problem with that so is trying to make it as easy as possible for you to do it. If you don't ask her out she'll assume that after all her heavy hinting you don't actually want to ask her out. This would be a very bad thing.

Run, do not walk, back round to her gaff, and ask her out immediately. No girl will ever make it more obvious that's what she wants. This is as close as it will ever get in your whole life. From here on in, girls will get even more unknowable and complicated, until you literally wake up and believe yourself to be in that old twilight zone episode where everyone starts talking gibberish and you're the only person left talking english. Except it'll be every woman you know making no sense, and to have a conversation with simple people you'll be reduced to going to a pub you hate, just to talk to men. Inevitably about football and darts.

Yes you are right, she is dropping the bar about as low it'll go without her jumping on you.

You need to think about it like pulling a plaster off, at the moment you are doing it in an agonisingly slow way that is just going to prolong the agony (perhaps for the rest of your life, because if you drop the ball you'll be sitting in your retirement home playing with a semi-sentient Gundam toy and still getting pangs about "the one that got away"). If you get in now, ask and get knocked back you'll dust yourself off, move on, meet someone nice, you won't fanny about as long so you'll reel the next young lady in and forget all about this. However, I think the odds are vanishingly small that you'll get knocked back - the big danger is you are a hair away from the "friend zone." She has been as upfront as she clearly feels comfortable with and has dangled a number off hooks in the water, if you don't ask her out she is going to assume you aren't interested and move on - she is clearly not short of offers.

You basically need to move now or watch this slip through your fingers, something that you'll find is considerably worse than any momentary embarrassment of asking her out. If you aren't seeing her tomorrow then phone her. All you need to say is "I was thinking about what we talked about the other day and wondered if you wanted to go out sometime." Takes a few seconds to say and you are through and out the other side, job done. Don't worry and don't other think it.

I've had a big abcess/ cyst thing growing on my face for a few days now- post viral infection.
Watching the development of this thread has been like waiting for the big yellow head(s) to come up- slow, painful and swollen up by teasing and squeezing and pushing sharp pointy things in.

Hurry up and fucking ask her!

Yes you are right, she is dropping the bar about as low it'll go without her jumping on you.

If I could go back and give my idiotic and hopeless-with-girls teenage self one piece of advice it would be this:

If you think she fancies you, in all likelihood she does. Women are smart and subtle and don't generally realize how fucking stupid men are: if you're wondering to yourself "Hmm, does she fancy me or doesn't she?" then she is probably wondering why the hell you haven't twigged that she's been throwing herself at you for the last god-knows-how-long.

The flip side of all this is that they're also actually pretty cool even if you have misread the signals. Women are usually flattered, will politely say no, and that will be the end of it. The earth won't open and swallow you; your life won't be at an end; and you can move on.

Cheers

Jim

Cyberleader – she will be more upset with you if you don't ask her out than if you do. No pressure, but this win, win situation will not go on indefinitely. Don't let it get to the "he doesn't fancy me, I hate him" stage.

If you mean you'll ask her when you are sorting out plans for the weekend, then good.

If you mean you'll ask her at the weekend, then bad.

People weren't exaggerating - your window of opportunity is closing rapidly. she has made it as easy as possible for you to ask here and the longer you leave it the more she'll think you don't like her that way. Don't use this as an excuse to give up, use it as the kick up the backside to sort it out now.

From above:

"I was thinking about what we talked about the other day, and wondered if you wanted to go out on a date with me."

If you are really lucky you'll get to "the other day" and she'll say "about bloody time!" ;)

From my research the following strategy is advisable:

1) Dress neatly, but not too fancy.

2) Try not to appear too tense. Act natural.

3) Strike up a conversation and talk naturally to each other before you ask her out.


If a) this person exists, and b) she has said everything as you related it, then it is almost definite that she likes you and wants to go out with you. I would go so far as to say that there is almost no chance of her turning you down.

Yeah, I saw that on the telly last night. I did find myself wondering while watching a girl being dragged away by her hair while shouting 'let me go' if maybe that particular coupling wasn't entirely consensual. I'm guessing the cameraman didn't want to step in, journalistic integrity and all that.

It's that 'Big Fat Gypsy Wedding' (I think it's called that). I only caught a bit of it but what I saw was a bunch of underage girls dancing around and then being picked up (physically) by the guys and carried away, some of them kicking and protesting. That's how pulling is done apparently. One of the girls' mums was then on camera talking about how that's their culture so like it or lump it, while clearly holding back tears. Like I say, I only caught a little but I'm unsure that in context it would be any less unsettling.

I only have a 4 year old boy atm but should i have a girl regardless of my culture i wouldnt stand for anybody touch him or a possible her liek that in any shape or form.

Again nothing ive seen in the program endears me to them, in my eye both males and females have a basic right to go to school and learn (Atleast).

Not being able to read and write is a sin.more so in this day and age, i remember saying to the wife women spent so many years struggling to be treat like equals for those apes to treat and abuse them like that.

Just to point out that the Travelling Community is made up of people like any other, and thus contains of the usual proportions of dicks (10%) and decent skins (90%).  Most of the members I've met and worked with are the latter.  These programmes focus on the extreme end of the spectrum in order to make good TV, and are no more representative of the population as a whole than (say) My Super Sweet Sixteen is of the whole of the USA.  There are aspects of Traveller culture that are deeply unsettling to most of us (not least their staggering mortality rate) but you'll find that many Travellers feel the same way.  

By all means condemn the shenanigans in these programmes, I'll happily join in, but try not to describe them as common to a whole social group.

Now, back to this young man and his fear of jumping into the saddle...

Again nothing ive seen in the program endears me to them, in my eye both males and females have a basic right to go to school and learn (Atleast).

Not being able to read and write is a sin.more so in this day and age, i remember saying to the wife women spent so many years struggling to be treat like equals for those apes to treat and abuse them like that.

Maybe there best segregated.

Just to point out that the Travelling Community is made up of people like any other, and thus contains of the usual proportions of dicks (10%) and decent skins (90%).  Most of the members I've met and worked with are the latter.  These programmes focus on the extreme end of the spectrum in order to make good TV, and are no more representative of the population as a whole than (say) My Super Sweet Sixteen is of the whole of the USA.  There are aspects of Traveller culture that are deeply unsettling to most of us (not least their staggering mortality rate) but you'll find that many Travellers feel the same way.  

By all means condemn the shenanigans in these programmes, I'll happily join in, but try not to describe them as common to a whole social group.

Now, back to this young man and his fear of jumping into the saddle...


Indeed...my intention wasnt to label them all,as i suspect my post seems to have.but i agree there's the fair share of fucknuts in any community

Actually I think SuperSurfer has some delusion that 'mayor' is a democratically elected position with a finite term.  He should know that only our absentee Monarch has the right to delegate a cupful of his briny power in this fashion.  And he never discrimianted on the basis of about aquatic adaptation.

Also: Cyberleader is Minister for Communications, Legendary Shark is Minister for Innuendo, and Godpleton is Minister for children. I've also selected Dog to act as the board's agony aunt, due to his consistently sound and helpful advice.

Expect an announcement in the immediate future regarding my plans to annexe the Byrne Robotics Forum.

Topic of conversation for you for this coming Saturday:

"He didn't feel comfortable when I asked him to tell me your number, so instead let me give you mine."

Then the three of you watch a DVD together, play Gundam Transformers or make some beans on toast: whatever floats your boat and defuses the air of tension that's likely to arise from the topic of swapping phone numbers when clearly you both fancy her, she doesn't fancy him, and she's loving all the attention she's getting from two (or was it three) guys who are interested in her.

Another good spitroast technique is to fake orgasm so that your mate will be tricked into going too - then, while he's waiting for the happysacks to refill you can get busy with the girl without looking into some bloke's sexface.

Cyberleader - as a concerned party, I say DO WHAT THE GUY SAYS ABOVE. Seriously, fella. It sound like an almighty mess-fest already. If a girl really likes a fella, she quite honestly won't mess around with these sorts of silly, childish games, and she certainly won't try to make him compete with another fella. Or seven other fellas.

My last girlfriend thought she was going to do this kind of dance (which is worse in our case, because we were already ACTUALLY an item at the time.) and seemed quite shocked when I flatly told her: 'sling your hook'.

There's two types of women in this world. The genuine, decent lasses, and the drama / attention freaks. The first category is quite rare. The second category is to be avoided like the plague. Because they are Com.Plete.Ly  Use.Less.

She's probably embarassed that she "came on too strong" to someone who "clearly has no interest in her", and is now trying to appear as if she wasn't interested at all.

To be honest though, there is absolutely nothing to lose from asking her out. Just do it and settle the matter once and for all.

Understand two things:


As you can see prevaricating has only made things more complex and confusing, you still have a chance because you never know quite how she'll react in such circumstances. She is not going to moon after this ex for the rest of her life and the danger is she jumps on your friend to take her mind of the ex, not because she particularly likes him but because he is there and has expressed an interest. Even if she says she isn't in the right place to go out with you, then you've crossed a rubicon and the dialogue has moved forward. So if she ever stops pining after the ex you in a much better position to pick up where you left off (Sod's Law dictates this happens just about the time you've started going out with another girl). So even if it doesn't pay off now you will have put in important groundwork further down the line. So you have nothing to lose.

I wouldn't be surprised if JK is right and this is just back-peddling as she thinks she came on too strong. However, you aren't going to know until you ask.

I was going to use my eloquent powers of reasoning and discourse to encourage her to be more circumspect before making such judgements of the menfolk on this forum.

Then I was going to fetch my big wooden bat.

Even if I did break the 'what happens on the board, stays on the board' agreement...it's just too damn fascinating following the trials of a young man trying to make his way in the world.

Crikey yes.  If (when) the wife ever does leave me, I'll get myself gelded on the spot.  Couldn't go through all that again, better to start learning Aramaic, knitting teacosies, and collecting for the Lifeboats instead.  And there's always the undiscovered country of Gundams to look forward to.

The thing about asking people out is it's all based on the ultimate assumption that sooner or later a girl's going to say 'Yeah, okay.' Without the odd 'yes' or two thrown in there, the so-called 'dating game' just becomes an endless grinding series of humiliating moments chipping gradually away at your self-confidence until you're not only lonely but entirely devoid of self-esteem and convinced you must be physically repulsive and inherently unloveable into the bargain.

now on to my update now to explain I have to back track to last Monday before going off on our wired afternoon when I was chatting with my friend we decided he would come over Tuesday now he had been a bit of a twat for the last fue months and said he could beat me on any game I had and the women I like has already seen him play games so she thorn he would win (it would be important to note that wilts he does play games longer in the day than I do I can stay up till 6 in the morning playing online play and beat people that are playing in the afternoon where they are) well I decided he needed to be taken down a peg so on to Tuesday he comes round and after 60 vs. matches I beat him 60 to 0 now I here you cry why are you boring us with this irreverent shit well after we finished our torment he called her as she had asked the day before to know who wins after telling her I could hear her scream "what" on his phone and he was the other side of the room. now to today I go into the charity shop and once she finishing servicing a customer she says hello and comes round from behind the till gives me a hug and we start talking about how I beat my friend (its important to note that she thort he was a ace games player) :lol: what a fun time I am haveing

Your lucky, I've been knocked back by at least two girls without having to ask them out first. I can only assume that even the prospect that I was about to ask them out was so horrific that they had to cut me off at the pass (a euphemism fortunately not involving cutting :o ).

Now it's got to hugging you can even use that as a reason for spending time together. As in "I would like to spend time with you at my house playing XBox and giving each other hugs all afternoon." Hugging leads to kissing.

Quote from: House of Usher on 11 February, 2011, 11:59:54 AM
Hugging leads to kissing.

I once thought as you do.  When I were a lad there was a very fine girl of my acquaintance who used to indulge in regular prolonged and highly pleasant hugging, which when coupled with a lively and frank friendship over a year or so I took to indicate at least the possibility of mutual attraction (sound familiar?).  Alas, when emboldened by drink and dance I attempted to move on from hugging to kissing I received a most strenuous rebuttal.  Through my long-standing non-threatening intimacy I had apparently placed myself in the dreaded friend zone (where happily I remain to this day, so it wasn't all bad).   Subsequent hugging-based relationships were a lot easier to interpret, and I never wasted any time on pursuing them, although I'd be lying if I said I don't still enjoy them.

The lesson here, if there is a lesson, is that I learned my lesson:  get on with it.  The longer you act like a teddy bear, the more she'll think of you that way.   Note:  unless she's a closet Furry, in whihc case run.

Good one, James. While reading I came up with all sorts of "but what about...", but found there was a cogent answer for each.   I particularly empathised with this:   

Quotecuddle bitch(n) - a guy who never gets to sleep with a girl but gets to have intimate moments with her like cuddling, spooning, or otherwise being affectionate. Usually this will occur in private. She probably considers him a really sweet guy, which is the kiss of death.

Oh where was my internet access in the '80's.

Fnyib!

Use valentines day to get her something - it'll at least let her know you would've liked to have asked her out and puts the idea in her head. If she's hung up on someone else you're now both unrequited...

But hey, I hope at least you've learned something, because it's never easy.

If you are almost certain then there is a small chance that you may be in. Push it a little further.

That's the spirit treat it as a learning experience & next time ask the lass out, failures better to look back on than maybes

Trust me I can tell when I've fallen into it because I've fallen into so many times I can no longer count. Still I've learnt a lot here and will put it into practises with the next women I meat.

Plus she to hung up on this outher guy from her past.

*Hits head off wall* Oh for feck's sake ! I want the last 4 weeks of my life back !

Yesterday would have been a great opportunity, I'm thinking anonymous Valentine's card or roses.

Just over a week ago, I met a girl who I haven't seen for years and we're now an item, all within one week of getting back in touch.  ;)

I have a feeling that she was expecting you to do something for her yesterday, women are mushy for the like.
A missed opportunity I do believe, now I think you may have gone beyond and cannot turn back. Just think she was probably waiting for you to woo her all day yesterday.

But surely you have to go out with a few mentalists, so that you appreciate The One when you find them?

One of the girls I fancied at school ended up going out with one of my "friends" (not after sharking in like that he wasn't) and she turned out to be bananas, but I'd have rather find out for myself.

Of course, now you aren't interested you realise you'll end up together now and you can't come back and edit those posts above - it'll be great fodder for the Best Man's speech ;) It was probably a good idea of yours to write everything in code.  :o

She may be setting poor old cyberleader up for a fall. Using him to wind-up the ex and giving the ex someone to take his anger out on. Still, a shag's a shag. Fortunately,in my experience,the crazy wenches are often the best lays. It's just the crap that follows that can be a nuisance. Go for it cyberleader, shag and be damned I say ! Shoot and scoot. Splash and dash. Come and go. Be respectful though, don't shag and brag. Unless it's to us of course, with details.

What with prolongued sexual frustration, a series of near-misses that brought about often hilarious results, and now offers of liaisons during powercuts, I'm beginning to think that cyberleader is actually Robin Asquith, posting across time from the nineteen seventies. Do you happen to work a "three day week" in the shop? Mooonlight as a windowcleaner or plumber's mate on the side?

Always use a johnny even if she says she's on the pill and wash your hands after cheeky bum fingers, is my leaned advice.

Ah this brings a tear to my eye (top right, thanks for asking) but possibly not for the right reasons ;)

Quote from: Cyberleader2000 on 08 March, 2011, 10:48:06 PMme thinks this trouble over they guy she likes who wouint replay to her messages has made her vanuberail.

It is almost Shakespearean.

Now if only I can work out what train line he is referring to...

Can't believe this is still going on. Hilarious though, its been a while since I've had one of these threads that makes me chuckle insanely at my desk, desperately trying to hide the fact from the folk around me! It makes me feel very vanuberail you know!

But I'll add that for all the rough banter around on the thread, CBL2K has taken it like a true gent when others would take a huff at us not taking it all serioulsy. God for you, sir!

Or he's making it up. It's still fun though. Hang on...you're not a cop trying to find middle aged men with an unhealthy interest in the sex of young people are ye?!

Nah, Mikey's right - CL2K has skin like a rhino, and he's to be congratulated on his even temper, and the fun it has afforded us.

Just ignore the spelling and declaim out loud (possibly in your head but definitely with legs akimbo), so you can truly appreciate the majesty and poetry of his words.

If this turns out to be an interactive fiction project, using complex transcription algorithms orchestrated, someone here (I'm looking with suspicion at Gordon Rennie, for example), then I will be most disappointed and impressed.

He should be your hero. Throw away your spellchecked and join the cult of CL2K and soon you too could have a young lady rubbing herself up against you offering you all sorts of naughty treats.

If he can seal the deal then you shall worship him like a God.

If we are on the same page (and sometimes I wonder if we are on the same book) I don't see this as being a problem.* A gentleman would always offer to wear the beard** without any expectation of reciprocation,*** he would not say "nice one love, so we can skip the foreplay." At this stage in proceedings you should be grateful to seal the deal, so don't worry about any bells and whistles.****

* Just to make sure I am correct in thinking I know what you are talking about, allow me to be blunt and use the correct medical terms: she is prepared to make the beast with two backs with you but she is drawing the line at getting her laughing gear around the old trouser snake?

** Does this euphemism even work today now everyone's lawn is bare?

*** My one tip is to take your pipe out of your mouth before commencing, even if there is no foliage to ignite. You not only ruin your evening a long way short of a happy ending but you can spoil some fine tobacco (either way a good shag is spoiled).

**** Unless they are actual bells and whistles, even then don't get distracted.

I simply meant to hide in his cupboard.

Amusingly along the same lines, I once stayed in a hotel in Manchester that had an alcove in one wall, containing a small sofa- and a curtain that you could pull across it, disgusing the fact that the sofa was there. We deduced it was a "wanking nook". I like to think Cyberleader would be kind enough to get his room remodelled with this in mind.

I feel i should, belatedly, point out for any would-be pedants watching, that my 'wanking nook' is only not a 'wanking cranny'- arguably a more pleasing name- for one reason.

You try telling that story over the years and people not hearing "my girlfriend and i got into bed in our hotel room only to notice there was a wanking granny in the corner."

I think I understand this girl now. Yes, you should have been a lot quicker off the mark. However, her M.O. seems to be to be always on the lookout for another man, always thinking there's a better prospect just around the corner. She's probably right: there probably is.

The way men and women are different, on the whole, is that a man would make certain to knob each interested woman in turn before moving onto the next one, whereas a woman will lose interest without closing the deal as soon as she's seen an opportunity to trade up.

You've had some bad experiences which inform your opinion, CL2K, but you are wrong here.  There's just as many female jerks as there are male ones (I always settle on 10%, in accordance with Sturgeon's Revelation), but the 90% that aren't are pretty amazing people by male standards.  They do seem a bit confused as to how best to use their obvious power over us, but you'll never find a more loyal, constant, uncomplaining, capable friend than a good woman (unless you get a dog).  Also, most of them have boobs, which is sort of a trump card.  Dog teats just aren't the same.

Pffft. The stories I could tell (like the girl who wanted me to treat her worse* or that the last woman I was even mildly intimate with was a bride-to-be on her Hen Night and I am unsure if she did it for a dare or not) and I'm sure most of the chaps here can regale you with "war" stories of their own (one day we might collect them in an anthology - I'm toying with the title "In the Trenches"). You've just got to dust yourself off and get back out there - either be a little more discerning in who you go for or accept that you are going to have to accept a few disappointments in between the better catches. You clearly have... something about you that attracts female attention** so just keep putting yourself out there and hopefully you've learned your lesson about not fannying around for too long (although experience would suggest you haven't yet). So I suppose this advice boils down to "keep your pecker up," although that might not be appropriate phrasing in the circumstances but if that was a problem for me I'd stop using "fannying" too. ;)

* If that happens to you, it is probably best to find out what she actually means, as breaking into her house and crapping on the carpet probably isn't what she was looking for and it can ruin a family's Sunday dinner (carving fork wounds take a long time to heal).

** I've got money on it being your Devil-may-care attitude to the English language - I believe the ladies really find that attractive in a man.

Then got past 30 and it's been drought after drought ever since with only the odd sip along the way. Now I just can't be arsed with the pursuit and all the jumping through hoops. I just hope and pray his sordid adventures increase perversely as he gets older (I was gonna use matures but then thought the better)and that he sticks around to tell us about them.

Aye Cyberleader, as has been advised by other boarders, don't be dissing on the whole female gender because you've had some rough experiences. There are cracking ladyfolks out there, and some nasty pieces of work, but that's the same with us menfolk too.

If you fall into the trap of treating girls like crap because that's what you've had done to you, all that'll happen is you'll eventually learn the error of your ways and regret making other people feel shitty along the way.

Besides, following this story it seems less like she was teasing you and more like she was flat out offering it but you didn't bite. Which essentially means you're the tease, but I don't know what the term is for the male variety. Maybe it's a gumptease.

I'd bet most of the people on here, mostly blokes of course, do not have a partner/girlfriend/wife or whatever that's a geek too. Mrs Mikey likes some of the same things but has a more, um, understanding view of the fanboy tendencies. Completely similar interests aren't necessary and y'know what, if you meet a girl you like and she laughs at your interests she ain't no good boy!

S'right.  My missus does have various geeky interests (some of them holdovers from childhood that I suspect she'd have dropped if I hadn't been there to encourage their continuance), but only a few actually overlap with mine, and she's otherwise relatively normal (apart from catastrophic taste in men).

We do share a love of caves, dogs, retsina and secondhand books, but... some of her interests I just cannot abide, some I've come round to really enjoy, some I'm happy to just go along with - she'd say the same about mine. I drag her to castles and museums, she drags me to various wildlife things and aquaria, sometimes she stays up to watch astronomical stuff through my crappy reflector, sometimes I consent to taste her blackberry wine or other foraged foods, and to be honest we both end up enjoying the lot.  On the other hand, I'll never get her into a racing dinghy, and she's unlikely to get me onto a trekking horse.  The end result is that we do a much wider range of stuff than either of us otherwise would.

If we had the same interests, I imagine it'd  be suffocating and monotonous - different is good.  But so is a willing acceptance of stuff you just don't get  (Eastenders is only 27 minutes long).

Yes, i did once have a girlfriend who shared all my interests almost exactly. It was, needless to say, a disaster. The trouble with being involved with someone who has the same (weird) obsessions is that the tiniest differences of opinion are magnified.
To others, two people may be "perfect for each other" as both are seen as being single, and both love comics, scifi and horror- but when she, for example, reckons Babylon 5, Elfquest and Saw to be the peak of human culture and you love Gundam NightBot BattleLegs Go!, 2000AD and Let The Right One In, those differences can be a killer.

Thankfully, my wife and i share a love of horror movies old and new, and both treat halloween as the most important event in our yearly calendar. But she doesnt get comics at all. However, through comucs she's met people like our CF, Albion, Minty and Mr Steve Green, etc- all people she likes a lot, so things begin to blur.

And, of course, i get to meet loads of semi-naked, and completely naked, gorgeous lady performers and famous people. Result!

Just go out with a mate (but not THAT mate; the cockblocking drokker), find a place where women are (not toilets, that's a bad idea) and stand around looking glam and confident.

Or, you could wander around mumbling sisters of mercy lyrics under your breath while clutching the guardian. This was my 'mate' graham's technique for years, when he hit 35 (in 1989) and he was never without a different girl at least ten years his junior. AND he had a massive nose, crap hair and stinky breath.

So.

You know as a woman I should be offended by some of the comments made about my gender on here... But reading the debate as you men try to second, third,forth guess what is going on in that poor womans head (And if you haven't been doing that, shame on you) has quite frankly been hilarious. I don't think the woman herself knows what she wanted...


Anyway I thought I'd hijack this (a little) and ask my own question..

It was recently Adrians birthday.

Amonst his gifts I bought him some flowers...

His reaction was this.

"Men buy WOMEN flowers, not the other way round! Unless they are gay."


I thought this being the twenty first centry, that it was perfectly acceptable for a woman to buy a man flowers... am I wrong?

I could tell you what she wanted, if you know what I mean. 'Offence' to me is akin to just moaning/whining about nothing so I don't indulge. We enjoyed this thread, it's been hilarious and another unique 'happening' on this forum, you should be proud of it's richness.


A man has no use of flowers unless he's a florist and then he's gay.

Some years ago, when I had the luxury of a full time job, I bought my then girlfriend (now my wife) a bouquet of flowers and some choclates to sort of celebrate my new job.

Upon seeing me buy these things, most of the male staff asked me what I had done and assumed I was buying them to make up for some sort of indiscretion.

I've often thought flowers a bad gift. They die within a short period of time! A potted plant with flowers though, that's another thing. Not that I'd particularly want my girlfriend* to get me one. But if I got a girl flowers, that's probably the route I'd take. Not as romantic as that big bouquet, but it would last and that romantic stuff never particularly bothered me.

A cactus, now, that's the kind of gift that just keeps on giving! Especially if you sit on it.

I had a girlfriend moan at me for not buying her flowers, so I told her I'd got her some and then presented her with a can of Flowers IPA. I thought it was very funny indeed, she wasn't so amused and the only reason she didn't use the can to loosen my teeth was because I'd cunningly also bought an actual bunch of flowers.

Simple guide to buying flowers:


* and beer usually works much better, or donating the money to charity but that tends not to get you drunk

** you can spot this as they'll initially look a bit baffled and then mumble something like "urrrr thanks, I'd better find a vase for these." If they like flowers they'll say something like "oh those nasturtiums go wonderfully with the lilies, next time throw in a sprig of heather for a little extra oomph." Just don't assume all gay guys like flowers either, a fatal mistake, and not all guys who like flowers are gay - so sexuality can't ever be used as a guide. So err on the side of caution and don't do it.

*** see also anything to do with cushions****

**** and possibly interior design beyond, paint and wallpaper

Emperor pretty much covers the bases there.  The ethical and environmental implications of flower growing are a serious consideration, and a little like diamonds it tends to take a lot of the romance out of the concept once you have that idea in your head.   My brother (who lives in Auxtralia) sends our mum elaborate Interflora flowers for her birthday and Mother's Day each year, and it drives her round the bend.  She asks him not to do it, but he just keeps at it.  So locally-grown flowers if possible, all - can't beat a nice bunch of daffs.

That aside, as a bloke I have been given flowers twice in a romantic context, and I was pretty touched both times - anyone who says a nice simple vase of flowers doesn't brighten up a room is nuts.  The kids and I do give the missus flowers on occasion, but usually potted plants, which do the trick and last longer, but may be an imposition if you don't know someone's living arrangements.

Don't listen to the cavemen above. No, there is absolutely nothing wrong with a woman buying a man flowers. Myself, I love to receive them. However, I seldom do, because, as I always ensure my wife has a constant supply of flowers herself (and have done for the past eight or nine years) we never have any room for any she may decide to buy me. And if we don't put them in the one place we know the cat can't get to, the cat will jump up, eat them, and puke everywhere. Experience has taught us this.

So yes, flowers are excellent for both sexes.
And I buy more than anyone else here, so am therefore a better husband than the lottaya.

The Bea (as I've always called Amy for reasons I've actually forgotten) has never bought me flowers, but if she did I reckon I'd find it quite touching. I wouldn't be that fussed about putting them in water or anything, beyond the actual receiving of the flowers they wouldn't serve any further purpose. I think that's why guys aren't generally into flowers, they don't really do anything, and at the risk of maybe sounding sexist I think men are more practical about things.

That actually did sound very sexist, but all I mean is (broad generalization here) girls are far more likely to enjoy things that serve no purpose other than to be aesthetically pleasing, whereas us blokes are far simpler creatures. That's why I own only one pair of shoes but can't walk from one end of the flat to the other without tripping over 4 pairs of hers, and why the incredibly comfy couch we spent a fortune on is covered in so many decorative cushions that it's impossible to get comfy on.

That sounds grumpy, but I love it really.

As acceptable as buying a woman a really nice saucepan, I'd say.

In other words, it depends on the individual you're buying for. I know a guy at work who'd be really excited at getting the saucepan, whereas I'd brain someone with it.

I have to say I wouldn't be exactly overjoyed at getting a bunch of severed plant sexual organs as a gift. As a few have said, it will depend on the person, so if you handn't clocked he wouldn't be into flowers, that might be more of a reason to be annoyed by getting them. It maybe came across as you buying something you wanted, rather than the crate of Boddies he was counting on.

You say that, but you've already told us you're a big flower-sniffing weirdo so we know you're really buying them for yourself. Like my mate who bought his mum a football for her birthday when he was ten.


Anyway, I'm not much of flower hand. I don't even think they look nice. However, if a woman gave me some, I'd probably go all weak at the knees and blush and stammer.

My what HAVE you done to make your poor wife so suspicious of you?

OR My what have other men in her past done to make her so suspicious of you....

And Adrian dosn't drink...

Loaths beer in fact.

It just cropped up in conversation that no one had ever bought him flowers so I thought... "Better fix that!"

They wern't red roses... THAT would have been wrong.

Men generally aren't into flowers.

Having said that, it sounds like a nice thought on your part. It was worth a go.

Next time get him a pie or something. Men love pies.

Flowers? Pah. Gimme a Star Wars figure any day (Or the money to get one as I have bought most of them behind the missus's back) She often comments on the amount growing in Robbies room.

Interesting how similar environments result in similar adaptations.

I think he gave in and imported one of those Gundam transforming sexbots that are so popular in Japan.

So by refusing to give the poor creature the jolly good seeing-to she richly deserved, not only did you cause her to move away, but she decided to erase all evidence of her life for the last year? This is like that Red Dwarf episode, 'Thanks For The Memory' taken to an epic scale.

I tell you, someday I'm going to take these 46 pages of urban alienation, bittersweet romantic disaster and post-modern existential trauma, and get a prize-winning novel out of them. Written in your inimitable prose style.

That, or a comedy series for BBC3.

But thanks for giving us the coda to what indeed has proved a saga in the truest of Icelandic senses.

It's like Irvine Welsh without the fun bits.

I feel like a scabby dog who's been talked to nicley by a stranger and feed a few greasy burgers... only to be kicked away when said stranger realizes that I have fleas and smell. Bloody men.
