contacting an ex
Posted:
10/25/2007 12:12:05 AM
I would have to agree with everyone that said to move on. I personally think it would probably be better to remain in contact with an ex that you had an amicable breakup with (if you were going to be in contact with an ex at all), and unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the case.
I understand the urge to contact them again to see how they are doing or how they are holding up without you in their life anymore, but I don't think that is a very healthy way to go. Especially if it "backfires" and you find out your ex is doing a million times better without you in their life. That would probably break your heart all over again.

What is in a name?
Posted:
8/29/2007 7:14:33 PM
I'm not a mom, and I don't think I will be for a long time. My name is Vivian, (a name I quite like) and my mom named me basically because she wanted her child to have a name that started with V, and she liked the meaning of my name.
I've written a couple of short stories back in the day (and I've written a couple since then, for fun though, not professionally or anything) so I know what you're talking about with the naming of characters. When picking characters' names, I usually pick them based on what the names mean, and how accurately they would reflect on the character's personality, since I usually have a vague idea of their personality.
Hope that helps somehow.

Would You Find It Weird?
Posted:
7/18/2007 5:23:28 PM
I think it definetly depends on the girl that you message. My bf is actually younger than I am (alright, 1 year, not a biggie). I don't mind age differences too much, but I do have a friend that swears she will not date a guy younger than her. So it may all come down to luck which girl you end up messaging.
Personally I wouldn't find it weird if a guy a few years younger messaged me (seeing as I'm only 20 so the youngest guy here would be 18) but I think the plus/minus 5 rule seems to be a good guide to stick to. Maybe those 25-26 year olds just (unfortunately) see you as too much of a kid. (Try to imagine a 15 year old wanting to go out with you.)
I think age becomes more of a number the older you become.

The Spark.
Posted:
6/8/2007 3:10:00 PM
To me "The Spark" is that initial unexplained attraction you have with that person on an emotional level. You don't know what it is, but for some reason you two just click.
I read somewhere (forgot where, so unfortunately I can't give proper credit where credit is due) but the article said that the majority of long-lasting couples admit their first date SUCKED, big time. That happened with me and my current bf too. Our first date sucked, I was considering saying "thanks, but no thanks" but he liked me so much he asked for another date/chance and I gave it to him. I think we found our spark on the second/third date.
I think if you really like her, ask her for another date/chance. Say you really like her and you think this could work out. Who knows, maybe she could give you another chance, but that part will be up to her.
Good luck.

Says She is Affraid
Posted:
5/31/2007 5:19:20 PM
I agree with the whole notion of it feeling like it's going too fast. I would be freaked out: meeting the parents within four days of meeting the guy? eeep.
I know my dating experience is still quite limited, but I agree when everyone else says slow down. Maybe try on average a date a week or something (though I am not saying have no contact in between) and see how that goes.
Personally I think relationships that are slower will last longer because the two of you will have had time to build a solid foundation. Er, at least that's how I feel.
Good luck!

Physical
Posted:
5/3/2007 6:22:24 PM
I totally agree with Ms Taken, different people are attracted to different physical traits, people of all shapes, sizes and appearances can find mates. Otherwise, we would either be walking around looking like clones of each other or something.
Even if you were attracted to someone physically you would still have to see if you liked them personality-wise. It may not be a bad thing if you're not that hot stud that all the girls drool over, because the ones that do like you will end up liking all of you and accepting you for who you are. Quality over quantity. I think those relationships are more worthwhile in the long run.
Just my two cents.

Humor in Profiles
Posted:
4/26/2007 7:54:55 PM
I think you make a valid point. I've read a lot of profiles where guys say something like "i'm funny, kind, etc." without going out into detail. I know it's always easier said than done to do that and I probably fail at that point too.
Maybe that's one reason why some guy's profiles have stuck out in my mind. Those were the ones that either weaved their humour subtly throughout their profile that made me stop and think "hey that was clever" or were so outragous in their profiles that I stopped and looked anyhow. If I smiled or laughed at their humour, so much the better.

Smart or dumb? Which do you like?
Posted:
4/23/2007 2:11:22 PM
Well for me personally conversation is key and I would like the guy to have some intelligence or at least on similar levels in regards to mine. I feel that way we can have decent conversations. I certainly wouldn't find it fun if I went out with a guy that didn't know what 2 + 2 was.

Would you stay with some-one who you know will never put you first?
Posted:
4/23/2007 1:59:56 PM
Well from your post I noticed that you wrote he "always" puts his friends, football team and other things before you. I'm curious as to whether or not he really does ALWAYS put other commitments above the one to see you, or if that is just you feeling like such since you mention he's taken you away on weekends (I mean no disrespect when i say that).
I also have to ask the same question as fishbill: are those plans last minute blow offs or were they set ahead of time? If he does the last minute blowoff to go drinking with his friends every time, then he's not worth your time, say goodbye and move on. In this situation he just sees you as a last resort when everyone else in his life is too busy to hang out with him.
Yes I realize he's the big football star in his town and it wouldn't surprise me at all if he was one busy guy. But I am a firm believer that no matter how busy a guy is (works vice versa too) he will always try his aboslute hardest to make time to see you on a somewhat regular basis. (Or at least you will get the vibe that he's trying his absolute hardest and is truly sorry he can't see you as often as you both would like). Here I would cut him a little slack because I would understand the fact that he's so busy and I would also be happy with the knowledge I am definetly not the last thing on his priority list.
So the key here is to figure out whether it is the first situation or the second. Like many things, it's easier said than done I'm afraid.
I don't think you can accurately tell someone's maturity level based on their age alone. I've known guys who are 23 and don't want any sort of commitment other than the one to remain a free spirit until their mid-30's, and I've also known guys at 23 that want (and are actively looking) to find "the one" to settle down and start a family with.
Whatever the outcome is, best of luck to you.

Ok, How Come You Girls Care About Looks More Than anything else?
Posted:
4/23/2007 12:57:31 PM
What a rant. If only more guys were like you it'd be better. I'm sure not all guys are like this, but somehow the majority I've come across seem to go for those gals who are putting on 5 lbs of makeup everytime they go out.
I hardly ever wear makeup (i can't even remember the last time I did), so I doubt I would fit into that category. I just go as far as maintaining my personal hygiene.
Hope you feel better after that rant. And there are a lot of girls out there that hardly do that with their makeup. Trust me, they're out there.

confused
Posted:
4/20/2007 3:51:16 PM
To the OP, I don't think he deserves you. Any guy that really cared about you or wanted you in his life would do everything he could to keep you there (except stalk you obviously). He wouldn't do a 180 on you and leave you hanging.
I hate it when guys disappear on the girl (that's happened to me). They didn't even get the guts to send one little email or message saying "I'm sorry I found another girl and I'm crazy about her and I can't talk to you anymore. Goodbye."

Do women send email or just wait to reply?
Posted:
4/19/2007 11:29:15 PM
I'm a shy one by nature so sending an email to a guy was a very frightening "no no" for me for the longest time. Now I'm still shy somewhat shy about sending emails to guys or making first contact but if his profile really stands out to me, I probably will send him an email, even if it's just a quick little note to say that I thought his profile was original and wish him a nice day. Do those count?

Words from people who are trying to help.
Posted:
4/18/2007 8:56:33 PM
Yeah I've had my fair share of hearing those lines too. I agree, it does make you want to lash out in some angry ranting way. A lot of the times those "cliche" lines were said by people that were happyily in a relationship so to me it was almost as if they were "na na na nana! I've got someone and you don't!" '
Even though I do get mad for a moment I always try to remember that those people were only trying to make me feel better even though I question the healing powers of cliches like those.

Is this normal for a girl to do?
Posted:
4/10/2007 6:07:26 PM
Well JohnnyV I don't know what to tell you, I consider myself friends with my ex (or at the very least we are on speaking terms) and I definetly wouldn't call him "poopy". For me once the breakup happens, I stop calling my ex the little names we had for each other. I also doubt I would still be on speaking terms with a guy like her ex.
You say you get jealous easily, does she know that? I've been thinking maybe the girl in question is trying to push your limits or make you jealous on purpose. Either she's seeing if you'll "fight" to get her to be yours or she's rubbing it in your face all the other "options" she has, like her ex. Hmm...I wonder if that is going to earn me any snarky remarks. That's just the impressions I got after reading your first few posts on this thread.
With that being said I do relate somewhat to what cdnokie said about having great guy friends that you can jokingly flirt with as well. I admit I do have a couple of guy friends (whom I have known for quite awhile) that I can jokingly flirt with or have running inside jokes with them, etc. If I had a bf I'd try to let him know that they were just jokes and those guys are just my friends, nothing more.
I had to learn this the hard way...but anybody that doesn't at least try to make an effort to make time for you and keeps blowing you off time and time again just may not be that interested in you. (Hope that made sense). I don't know her, or your situation so I can't say for sure, maybe she has a very busy schedule and is booked until August. Maybe she has final exams or something that she really needs to ace. But I guess my generalized point is if that is the case, she will let you know. She won't put you on the backburner and leave you wondering when she is going to be free to spend some time with you. She won't push you aside and pick you up at her earliest convenience.
Just my two cents, and I apologize for repetition.

Texting.....(cell)...do you? what do you think of it?
Posted:
4/3/2007 9:50:18 AM
I don't text a whole lot, mainly because I don't have the good fortune of having unlimited texting. I usually text if I'm talking to someone via long distance, or if I'm not sure someone's busy or not and I don't want to disturb them with a phone call because I seem to have a knack for that sort of timing.

The worst way to break up with someone..
Posted:
4/1/2007 11:28:01 PM
There are lots of bad ways, but I agree that disappearing in silence can be one of the cruelest and hardest to process emotionally.
I couldn't agree with you more nanniekate. A close friend of mine got dumped like that. At the end she would always make plans with the guy to hang out with him, but he'd always cancel at the last minute or not even bother telling her he wasn't showing up. Eventually she was the one that had to track him down to ask him "are we breaking up?" and his reply was "well I guess since we haven't talked in awhile yeah we are over." Talk about emotional roller coaster.
Even now when she's found a great guy she's so scared to put her heart on the line and get hurt again. That just tugs at my heart. =(

University + Dating = No Go?
Posted:
3/15/2007 8:30:38 PM
Hey grant, I'm in my third year of University too and I can feel your pain. Nowadays I find myself either at school or being a hermit at home because frankly I am not one of those geniuses that understands everything the minute my hand touches a textbook. Wish I was though.

How much do you invest in new relationships?
Posted:
3/13/2007 10:11:06 PM
Even though my relationship experience is very limited, hopefully my two cents are still somewhat valid (or at the very least a somewhat interesting read).
I guess it's a bit dependant on what talista said too. IMO I have to feel that it is the right person, or at least a person that would be worth my investment before I start investing my time and energy into that relationship. But once that decision has been reached I do feel like I invest pretty heavily into that person, I would consider myself dating someone and wouldn't really be interested in dating someone else.
When I had just started going out with my then-bf, I got a message on here from another guy that was interested in meeting me. Though he did seem like someone I would have liked to have met, maybe have interesting convos with, I sent him an email back saying thanks but no thanks, I was going out with someone and wished him the best of luck.
I dunno, that's just me.

Need a little help
Posted:
3/12/2007 4:57:25 PM
I know it's easier said than done, but seriously try not to worry about it (and kudos to everyone else for giving out such wonderful advice, I wish I had read this board when I was 17!) If it helps any I didn't get my first relationship until I was 20.
There is some truth to the cliche of "it will come when you least expect it." I was (seriously) days away from deleting my pof account when all of a sudden I got an email from my soon to be boyfriend (now ex but that's besides the point). But the point is, I had not been expecting that at all. Also, I was starting to get to the point in my life where I was worrying less about how the world viewed me (trust me, I'm probably one of the biggest worriers out there) and just focussing more on doing things that made me smile in life (ie. hanging out with friends, school, work, etc).
With that said I do remember my teenage days (not that long ago) and all the heartache I felt I was going through. Now I feel like I'm finally starting to feel more comfortable with who I am and with my skin. The road was long and hard, but every step was worth it. I know you can do it too, just one step at a time. And once you are happy with yourself, you're going to start smiling more. I can't speak for anyone else, but what I find attracts me the most to a guy is a great smile that radiates from the inside.
Wow, I apologize to everyone for the major cheesiness factor.

Loves the romantic scenes in the movies
Posted:
3/10/2007 5:01:14 PM
Haven't come across a guy that cries at sad movies yet...but I don't think it would bother me unless it was the situation that wpg_chick_84 brought up. If tears were streaming down his face I would be touched. If he was sobbing and wailing and that was the only thing I heard...yeah not so much.

are there still cd buyers out there
Posted:
2/23/2007 10:27:13 PM
I still buy CD's from time to time, the CD I bought was Yellowcard's latest album. In a way I like to think of my downloading as a sort of "preview." If I only end up liking only one song by a band/artist then I probably won't get their CD but if I find I'm liking several of their songs I usually will go out and buy their album. Does that make me a bit of a cheapo?

How do I mend a broken heart ?
Posted:
2/21/2007 10:13:42 PM
While I don't know the exact pain you're going through (my heart goes out to you), recently I just got through a breakup and I agree with what Polish_sweetie said about keeping yourself occupied. I found it helped a million times more for me, just keeping busy helped me get through my day. Also all my great friends let me rant and cry about him for days on end which also helped. It was just during the times I was alone that I really acutely noticed the unbearable pain.
Best of luck to you.

first date happyness
Posted:
2/21/2007 8:48:05 PM
this is good advice but you make it sound easy. half these girl want to get in bed quicker than me. i want a girl that i can talk with cuddle and watch films and stuff. sex is a bonus thats it. but how do i go about finding a girl thats the same?
Really? I would have that most (almost all) guys would want to get into a girl's pants ASAP. Alright...I know I'm going to get yelled for making that comment sooner or later. Yeah, feel free to throw daggers at me and disagree.
Do you know where guys like that hang out? Is there some secret underground dwelling that nobody can find?

The one that got away...
Posted:
3/26/2006 8:52:36 PM
I wouldn't really classify it as dating...we only met once. We had talked almost all day everday before that time. I screwed it up (the meeting) and after that I just kind of let it go, I'm quite shy so I never really felt like I had the ability and/or self confidence to go after what I wanted.
He just got engaged to his girlfriend awhile ago. Oh well...

ever wonder if some one put a cruse on you so that you cant fall in love?
Posted:
3/5/2006 9:46:06 PM
allthoseyesterdays:
Flame .. you are 19 years old and have probably been dating maybe 6 years? Give it some time.
Well it's been 6 years since I've had my first serious crush. (Dangerous things sometimes). Considering how many dates I've gone on...I daresay I have been dating for about zip years. Lovely eh?
sweetiie:
These men have to show us they really do care..as our walls are built high around our hearts
I think that is definetly true for me, the walls part at least. With every ego buster that comes along, I end up rebuilding my walls so they are stronger, higher. A friend came back and told me that my first crush had been really obvious to the rest of the world. Since that was my first ego-buster, I told myself to never be so obvious again, to never let anything like that show through. And of course, many years later, because of that reservedness (if that's a word) has screwed up a couple of situations for me.

ok hey girls i have an idea i want every one to name the bad things about them
what you think it is that guys dont like
well back in high school at least (yeah I know, I've been out for a couple of years) I never seemed to be the girl that most guys seemed to go for. Never had much of a fashion sense..or wore makeup...the shy, quiet, wallflower. And apparently I looked like a guy...so yes another ego buster -_-"

Yeah, maybe I'm cursed, or maybe not, I don't know. All I know is my dating streak has been downright dismal for the past lifetime (and certainly plenty of ego destroyers along the way) but at the same time I can't imagine going out with a guy. Right now my comfort zone seems to be being just friends with the guys I know...either I don't like a guy right now or my curse has scared me into believing that I'll be safest in the friends zone for the rest of my life. Who knows? Can anyone tell me?

Can you change your mind on how much you like someone?
Posted:
1/17/2006 6:12:00 PM
I guess on the reverse side for me there was this one point in my life that I really really liked this guy. Cliche sounding I know, but I thought I was going to like him forever even though he wouldn't have given me the time of day. And then one day while we were talking he made some...rather unimpressive comments about one of my good friends, all based on judgements that he had made too quickly. So I guess from that I started changing my mind...beginning of the end shall we say...

OK Lady's what do you expect from a first email?
Posted:
12/19/2005 10:36:10 PM
Personally I like emails that contain a bit more than "hi how are you, do you want to chat?" Hmm...if I said yes...what would we talk about? I'd really like it if a guy read my profile and maybe suggested an icebreaker topic from that, maybe it was something he read that he agreed or disagreed with/found interesting (though that may not exist depending on who's reading it). You know...suggest something, start the topic rolling and who knows what could happen after that?
And in my books those classic "you're cute wanna chat?" emails don't qualify either.

Good philosophy MDNinja. That's what I've discovered too. Whining and complaining won't get a person anywhere, in the end it's the whiner that winds up getting hurt even more. Wasted a lot of time (personally) wondering and obsessing over the fact of why I wasn't getting a date. No more! Now I just try to have fun and laugh from day to day. And then I'll end up as one of those scary old ladies with cats.

Don't worry Geekygirl! You made perfect sense in my mind! And you're not alone in those thoughts!
I think I'm a mixture...being an only child in a sense I'm always "alone" so I'm used to it. But I still (perhaps foolishly?) hang on to the belief that there is someone out there for everyone. Just whether or not you meet them within your lifetime could be a different story. I confess, there are plenty of days when I wish and wish I had someone to cuddle up to on the couch.
On the flipside, there are plenty of days when life feels good and I am perfectly happy being alone. Certainly I can go anywhere, do whatever I like without someone there always in the back of my mind.
Those that go into a relationship and 'wait' for someone better is kind of ... sad in a way. I couldn't do that. It'd be too hurtful for everyone in the end. I'd rather dip my head in acid than to be in that situation.
I couldn't do that either. The whole time I'd be thinking of how unfair it would be to the other person...and it just wouldn't end well. I've come across a couple of individuals who DO do that, be in a relationship just for the sake of being in one, and I find that incredibly sad. But that's not true for me...which could potentially explain why I've been single for so long.

Is it true?

Depends on what happens in those 5-10 minutes. If the guy's creeping me out then things will probably go downhill from there. But I'm usually willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
I guess the proof lies in the fact that there was this guy I met in one of my classes a year ago and instantly I just knew there was something about him that creeped me out. But I gave him the benefit of the doubt...and a year later he's still creeping me out.

Lol! Well you sure did a lot more than I would have done! If something like that happened to me I would have been in shock for the whole thing.
Hehe and good for you turning him in!

The ultimate heartbreak
Posted:
12/15/2005 10:10:53 AM
Sorry for your loss susieque. My grandmother passed away earlier this year and even with that I can't imagine the pain you must be going through right now. I wish I could reach past these computer screens to give you a hug. I am sure he is in a better place now without any pain, looking down and smiling, knowing that he had the best mother whom loved him with all her heart.

Definetly spending Christmas single, but not alone. I got my family, my friends, I'm happy for now.
I'll probably hibernate through the holidays anyways.
Have a great Christmas Everyone!

Adorkab13, you're definetly not alone. I'm joining the club!
I guess from what enigma said, I have 11 more years before I wonder what the hell is wrong with me and start asking around for good therapists.

I'm too nice?!?

Translation:
You're not the guy for me. Sorry, but this is the nicest way I can say it without directly hurting your feelings.
I have to agree with woozoo on that one. Don't worry allred, from what I saw in your profile you seem like a really stand-up kind of guy. There'll be a girl someday that will see you have just the right level of niceness for her.

Do we Love the same again??????
Posted:
12/6/2005 2:16:38 PM
The last guy I was in love with...boy I was stupid. He was the first guy that I practically gave my heart to. In the end he didn't even give me the time of day and now I believe he is crushing over my best friend. In the beginning I was mostly bitter about that, but it wasn't until I had another bit of a heartbreak that I was finally able to open my eyes and see how much of an idiot I was. Those two heartbreaks combined really changed my outlook about this whole love and dating thing.
Now I have temporarily given up looking...or at least looking so hard. Just trying to live my life, enjoy the single life. If the guy for me shows up, great. if not, oh well, I figure I still have time.

Last CD you bought
Posted:
11/14/2005 9:40:18 AM
Last CD I got was Hedly's CD.
Birthday present from my friend...he didn't even ask to find out whether or not i liked them, he just went out and bought their CD (he bought one for himself too).
Bold move I say, but he got it right!

Sorry, I guess I never learned that little piece of info, but that's how I interpreted the overall song, though I didn't take it as one of those happy love songs, if that makes any sense at all.

Here's my own list of cheesy love songs....
Edwin McCain - I'll Be
Kelly Clarkson - A Moment Like This
Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven
98 Degrees - My Everything
B4-4 - Everyday
Billy Joel - She's Always a Woman
Jim Croce - I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song
Clay Aiken - The Way
Default - Count on Me (alright, rock song, but I love the lyrics)
Sarah McLachlan - I Will Remember You
Seal - Kiss From a Rose
The Calling - Wherever You Will Go
Toni Braxton - Unbreak My Heart
And also Michael Buble has some pretty good "romantic" albums in my opinion anyways. Well I've only listened to his "It's Time" album, but he does some amazing covers of the classics.
