You misunderstand. If they say something like "i'm stupid and no one will ever love me" I will counter with an observation about a talent they have and a supportive statment. If she says "ugh I want to ditch like 5 lbs by the end of summer" I'll say, I was looking to do some jogging around the lake on weekends if you want to join me .

I am smart enough not to be condicending. If a woman is venting about an issue that's frustraiting, I'll empathize, but not counter.

People that attempt to invalidate feelings are irritating. "you're too pretty to be sad, or "you're just bitter she doesn't like you". Shit like that drives me nuts.

I think the general consensus is correct, my friend is a bit of a nut bar, but still my friend.

 

That moment when that chick you liked is now dating a shittier version of you. Like it's both kinda annoying and kinda hilarious.

Whatever though. Gonna be interesting to see if she goes to the movies without him tonight or if we're doing the God awful double thing. The way she was talking yesterday praying to God no doubles.

 

Good luck, Haloid.

May the Universe go easy on you.

 

Have very little faith in the universe.

 

That moment the girl you've kinda been getting more and more with actually has a boyfriend in Auburn she never mentioned. Like, it was well past the heyyyyy ive got a boyfriend line. a boyfriend where youre kind of in an "open relationship". which is def pretty bs like even if youre told to do an open relationship it kinda means dont

 

It actually means "fuck around all you want you just won't be fucking me."

 

Yeah, the open relationship thing only ever really works if you are open with everybody. (Like "Hey I can see you're interested, I like you to. I'm in an open relationship, if you're ok with that we can have fun").

Sorry you got punk'd  

 

The thing was was we were doing some really like, more dating romantic type stuff at first and like we got pretty into eachother and idk its like she suddenly remembered she had a boyfriend. She didnt even want to call off what we had but like, its kind of a shitty thing to do so i ended it because like. fuck.

 

Sounds like she is more Poly than Open.

 

I mean i pondered it for a day or two like, i really dug her, but its like the montage in The Graduate, like everything was happening and I just had a glazed look because I felt soup guilty

 

Hah, I once contemplated going out with a chick that was in an "open relationship." Then, after that 5 seconds was over, I stopped talking to her all together.

Never be someone's doormat.

 

You make it sound so simple, its way different when you spend 2 months falling for someone you have amazing chemistry with. Like, we had our own dumb tropes wed do and then outa nowhere bam. boyfriend. Like, thats got some attachment

 

And yet you still stuck to your beliefs and didn't compramise yourself. I'm with Seeker, you did the right thing and really, should be proud of yourself for that.

 

So I asked out a woman I have kinda known since high school. We went to the same college. She said yes! I asked her where she wanted to go and she said Turkey Run State Park. She knows I like to camp, but that is one hell of a first date if you ask me. It takes over an hour just to get there!

 

That's obviously a stick it in her pooper date right there.

 

Should I do that first? lol

 

Sex in the woods always goes well from the movies I've seen.

 

Actually, I asked her to go to dinner, and she recommended this. There is a really nice inn...
