It seems to be the rule these days, rather than the exception, that people break up to be with someone else. I've had it happen to me, and just as I was approaching the rock bottom of self blame and criticism, someone posed me a very simple question: What could she ever have done that would have bee... |

Trust is a function of how much we trust ourselves to handle other peoples' failure. Most people end up in the worst relationship they're willing to tolerate on an ongoing basis. You will continually fall in and out of love with your partner; that is without question. The only question is whether yo... |

I love how most of the guys here blame their lack of success on how shallow/vapid women are, say it's just 'luck' if other guys are able to date, blame it on their not-Brad-Pitt-looks, lack of money, lack of a good job, lack of a nice car, etc.... Heaven forbid a woman who's not interested in dating... |

I can only dream. :oops: It probably won't come as a surprise that I'm not sure what you mean by that.. :lol: In your opinion, was that good advice or bad advice? If a guy said something like that to you, would you run for the hills? Or would you lay a big ol' smooch on him? Somewhere in between, p... |

First of all, understand that telling her you like her is your idea of what the next step should be. It's a construct, and you constructed it. Begin your evaluation there. For example, ask yourself this: What is the likelihood that someone on the spectrum is going to do well at figuring out not only... |

Yeah, I have some advice.. You look at them, put on a goofy grin, laugh a little, and say "Sorry...I'm not very good at this sort of thing." A little bit of genuine openness and honesty goes a long way toward breaking the tension of an awkward moment.. Conversely -- and this makes sense, when you t... |

However, when you're alone in bed and missing someone, even a small bed can feel like a sea upon which you're adrift with no anchor. Aw :heart: But It's true! :oops: :) I'm a pretty good sized guy and a full bed used to seem small to me when I started sleeping alone again, after sharing a king.. An... |

When you're used to sleeping alone and have either never known, or have known and forgotten, what it's like to truly miss and want someone to lay down with, a small bed is enough, and you can be content in it. However, when you're alone in bed and missing someone, even a small bed can feel like a se... |

I like it too! A few weeks ago I was leaving the local bookstore that I frequently haunt and some really cute girl smiled at me and said "hi" when I was leaving. I was floating 2 feet off the ground for the next couple of hours-it only lasted about half a second but I still remember what it felt li... |

Thanks everyone for the feedback. The more I (over) think about it, it probably is just a self-esteem issue. I just can't conceive of someone actually wanting attention from me, I think I could manage to pull it off if I didn't have this monkey on my back, but when I'm out in the world I just feel ... |

You don't have to do anything beyond that if you don't want to, but that should be enough to give you at least some indication that..yeah..maybe women *do* wanna be 'bothered' like that. That doesnt make any sense though... if i were in such a situation, i'd feel like I just creeped her out by doin... |

So if your boyfriend/girlfriend had an ugly fight that you tried to mediate and then ditched you and went out with your enemy, you would still trust him? This point was the culmination of a series of little "betrayals" over a course of two months. I feel as if he treats me as just any other friend ... |

... I have NEVER hit on a woman, ever, ... It just seems so inappropriate and rude, and quite frankly, creepy, to even consider. Which is to say that you'd feel you were acting inappropriately, or rudely, or being creepy if you were to even *approach* a woman you didn't know.. That actually sounds ... |

Dude...seriously. Stop thinking so much about how you look or how a woman looks or what she does for a living or how cool you'll look if you go out with her on your arm.. Not helpful.. Instead, open your mind to women outside what you envision to be your type and try to find one who makes your heart... |
