Caring - bare minimum of course Analytical - questioning conventions is great! Calm - depends on the moment. sometimes calm is good. sometimes energetic is good. Flexible - sure. Looks taken care of - what does this mean? Patient - really vague term here. i wouldn't consider myself patient, so no. I...

If you're already friends with a girl, want to pursue a relationship and she says "Let's just be friends", you'll be friends (as long as you're cool about it). If you just met a girl, you date her, want to pursue a relationship and she says "Let's just be friends", you'll be acquaintances. Aka, she'...

Yes, the first time you talk to women, you'll be really nervous. But eventually if you talk to enough women, you'll calm down, lose the anxiety and realize that they're regular people just like guys are.

But there's no way to avoid that difficult first step.

Stop means stop. It doesn't mean "oh, they don't get it. it'll be cooler if I did it again to show them how cool it is". It means stop. One thing I noticed as well was that I'm more mature when I'm around mature people. I noticed when I surrounded myself with immature people, I would try to please t...

As someone who is guilty of nitpicking the smaller facets of social interactions myself, I think counting the amount of hugs you're allowed in a friend zone is way too overanalyzing. The way I see the friendzone: 1) If you were already friends with the girl before you asked her out, you're still fri...

Depends.

Rather than the online/offline matter, I rather ask whether that person is a reliable versatile friend or just a contextual one (aka. a business partner or someone you share a hobby with but don't talk to outside of that hobby).

I've been mulling over this concept - if a neurotypical person is dating an aspie, is that exploitative? What I mean by that is, can that be a healthy relationship? Or does that partnership just create the kind of power imbalance that's a breeding ground for abusive relationships? In short - is it ...

i've been there before definitely. what i did was i read up about a variety of subjects, even ones i wasnt immediately interested in so i could relate to people in conversation more. for example, a close friend of me is really into military history. i really don't care as much, but i read a bit on t...

I'd give her another chance but establish that you won't tolerate flakiness or one-sided behavior. If she can't be good on that, then I'd end things with her.

Because it was immensely overhyped in 2008, people are twice as hard in bashing it.

kids in elementary are too young to care about social hierarchies and who has more merit than who and things like that. they start caring once they hit like 6th or 7th grade.

necrobump, i know. but i do regret posting this topic. it was a mentality i related to at the time, but not now. no matter how you slice it up, the "women love to date as*holes" mentality is sexist and not really true or relevant. on just about every angle. so, um, time for the lock, i guess.
