Kinda hard to force a square peg into a round hole, isn't it?

I'd say we are only less "desireable" in the eyes of those who desire.

at the end of the day, ask yourself - by what means do you measure yourself?

Most of that is a package deal with the first big love experience. I wasn't interested in foreplay or the "romantic" side of sex at all until my 5th or 6th partner, despite being in emotionally invested relationships - so don't think it's anything wrong with you, it's more like he hasn't developed a...

This is the kind of behaviour that exposes deep seated lack of respect, either for you as a person or you as a woman or both. I agree. But my contention is that this lack of respect is based in immaturity, not a willful desire to inflict harm. It sickness me when I have to read rhetoric that justif...

as un-helpful as this is, it's the joy of biology. However pathetic, I can admit to having a short phase of it myself. I make no claim to be a professional on these things, but resolving the issue requires two things. 1. that you don't give in to his uncontrollable urges 2. that he doesn't see you w...

I'll play devil's advocate here... hormones have a very powerful effect on people. Call it thinking with the wrong head, caught up in the moment, whatever... He is simply trying to satisfy an urge, and urge that is biological, and the consequences of which make him feel like crap. He is not a bad pe...

I'd like to respond to these points. While there's some truth in what you're saying, I feel you're analysis is too one-sided: 1) I don't believe it's simply a matter of not meeting their expectations, but rather deliberately not acknowledging their gesture. 2) I don't believe it's robbing them of a...

My only problem with European automobiles is that I actually like to drive my vehicles, instead of moving the shifter and making noises while it sits on jackstands

(sorry, but Porsche ownership has left me bitter :P )

Maybe it's a guy thing - but that's about as far from "adorable" and as close to "badass" as one gets. Without invoking the divine power of the big block, anyway. I did have a friend with an LS1 swapped Mazda Miata, though. Very cute car, until this mysterious force would snap your head back into th...

Interesting. At face value, this seems like quite the proposition.

Enjoy it!

Without starting a complete metaphysical derailment, I would like to say we have the same ideas, but would call them different things. I would call your explanation (as in, the definitions we apply to an abstract concept) the qualities of self. The nature of self being much more elusive, perhaps inf...

If you believe "being yourself" to be a causal factor in attaining an external benefit, disappointment is inevitable. If you see the reward of "being yourself" within itself, and disassociate it from the external, then you will forever have an intrinsic joy to come back to, regardless of what might ...

Darn, we had a good derailment going too. Guess you'll have to tell me about the rocket ship you put together using a washing machine and an old JVC tape recorder some other time, eh?

I have always said that the ingenuity of people in the absence of abundance is absolutely astounding. From seeing kids in high school make a pipe out of a soda can, to the old man next door using a fishing hook to pick stuff up off the ground, it never ceases to amaze me. Those of us who can exercis...
