| Maybe they don't like you or don't find you attractive enough. That's also very probable - I could tell which girls (not those ones referred in this thread) had a crush on me because they bothered to initiate interaction and expressed interest in meeting me again more than once (those are obvious s... |

| Probably not. If they enjoyed chit-chatting with you, they'd likely have continued the casual chit chat with you... or at least an occasional "hey, how is it going?". Casual, non-progressing-to-anything-else-ever-pleasantries, well, that doesn't strike me as conveying "interest"... |

| Folks seems to be missing the point by a WIDE MARGIN here (though, admirably not AnonymousParent). Points include: 1. Children cannot consent to sex. Ever. Period. This is why statutory rape laws exist. 2. Victims don't get to dictate whether FELONY charges are filed for GOOD REASON! (Hypothetical: ... |

| I've been having a pretty rough time lately. The last 4 girls I got the chance to ask out have all said yes only to cancel later. The last one gave me her number and messaged me for an entire month saying she wanted to meet. Then after we finally set something up she cancelled a few hours before, p... |

Well, of course, why not... not like anyone can actually go to a university all on their own in this 'who one knows' not 'what one knows' world... The vast majority of people get into college on their own merits --... |

The financial implications are too great for a course that I am not particularly interested in. I only made the ... |

| I know I can google this and ask my professors but I wanted straightforward responses. I'm already gathering data (as some of you know), so in some ways, this is a formality. But I've never defended a thesis proposal before and I know that I have a natural failing of being overconfident. I'm expect... |

| Not sure how it works in Canada, but in the U.S., you cannot be compelled to reveal your diagnosis as an adult -- however, if you WANT the accommodations you are entitled to under the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) you are REQUIRED to disclose your special needs. FWIW, I didn't disclose that ... |

| The notion that graduating from university requires no social skills ultimately depends on the university. The one I went to was 100% social, if you had little or no social skills you would fail your first year, i did computer science and the lecturers would put you into groups of 4-6 people, this ... |

| To answer your question: I decide to go out with someone when I know them well enough to know they are a good person and I feel like they would be a great friend that could turn into something more down the line.

| I'm going to university, not college. I won't live in a dorm, I will just continue to live at home with my parents like until now. The university is nearby, so I can simply go there on foot. Nobody knows me there, so at first nobody will hear anything about me. My plan is simple: keep a low profile... |
