retreads can not be made from retreads. they can only be made from an original design. once they have ripped free from the tire, they are de-treaded debris.

tired minds often compartmentalize things into easily sort-able platitudes.
i often wondered what a jaded mind was, but until i started listening to people who have been chronically disappointed, i never knew.
also, people who's brains are simply tired due to age also seem to summarize their experiences into a low resolution matrix.


Well, this entire thread is just a regurgitation of well documented memes, I have yet to see an original argument in it. It's a tit-for-tat gender war and it's been played over and over on this site. It would be different if either side would attempt to find common ground and a workable theory on how to make the genders more equitable, but it's just a series of attacks and counter-attacks with both sides hunkering down. It's cold war that could use a little detente.

In my personal view they are no more than women who do the same. But still, this is not what we were talking about.


It is what I was talking about.

Obviously I do, because in my "your posts" section it's at the top more than some of the "game" threads I made the mistake of posting in...it's bloody annoying. :wink:

If I don't remember it wrong, he had an admirer that could have been his gf, but he passed. He seems to be a really picky one. :lol:

Two of them actually in a month or little more, but one had to go back to her country shortly after.

Yes, probably I am.... or let's say, I am picky when it comes to easiness of relationship, I don't want one which is too much hassle especially from the start.

I am little "jerk" at that, when I realize the relationship will be too much hassle from the start (ie. single mother with toddler children or there will be distance soon...etc) I tell them to keep it casual , FWB and nothing more.

and there''s one who really likes me nowadays (she's been so for years), but too religious to me, so I just keep her as a friend. lol

I think in such a case it'd be best to exclude the sexual component of the friendship, if they fall for you I mean.
