| How well do you hold conversations with the guys you are interested in? Communication is a skill that needs practice like any other and sometimes it can feel uncomfortable or awkward until your own comfort level with the behavior improves. Speaking with a smile on my face and staying positive with t... |

| She's attracted to more than just your crotch and she wasn't making fun of you. If she is someone you are interested in romantically this would be a good time to make a move. If not, remember that she was trying to pay you a compliment. |

| Your situation sounds like a great place to start a relationship. Keep doing activities you are both comfortable with and initiate some contact, i.e. if she is walking close to you try holding her hand. Laugh off any awkwardness that occurs, there well be some as you establish a deeper emotional con... |

| Haha, have fun with it and remember social labels are not always accurate. The ability to communicate easily with someone is a rare occurrence. Maybe she's considered a homewrecker because of the lust other guys display and not any particular action on her part (girlfriends tend to get pissed if the... |

| The first step is to learn how to hold a conversation with a girl. The more you speak to women the easier the task will become and you can move on to asking them out on a date. After all, what good does asking a girl out do if you end up silent most of the date. It's all practice and I think you wil... |

| I think you should talk to him about it. Keep the conversation lighthearted and you will gather his thoughts on the matter while making you closer as a couple. He will think it's cute. |

| You assume that animals have no intelligent consciousness of their own, which, having grown up with pets, I know to be a false statement. Your dog doesn't empathize with you or find ways of communicating its desires? Seriously, check out SuperCooperators by Martin Nowak and Darwin's Ghost by Steve J... |

It is a known alternative to pharmaceutical anti-depressants and pain relievers. I find heavy sativas (high thc lo... |

| On the contrary, everything we do is driven by instinct. Society itself is not an exclusively human behavior. Bees live in engineered structures and communicate information between organisms through a complex system of pheromones and and physical movement. Ants cultivate fungi deep in their hill in ... |

Great read and very insightful on some of the more contentious subjects touched on in this thread. Btw, I'm from the United States ... |

| Get yourself to college. Don't be afraid to ask counselor's in high school about what you need to do to get into school (if you haven't already). With straight A's and a halfway decent ACT/SAT score, which you'll ace, then you can start your life over, probably on a full ride, or with loans. Here is... |
