So where did you guys meet your last boyfriend/girlfriend or current one?
I ask this because I don't have too many friends that go out but rather hang out doing the same thing every weekend. Obviously I want to meet a girl but I'm not interested in bars or clubs or like, what some may do, the supermarket. Those places just seem odd to meet someone, or maybe that's just my perspective?
I've made a concious decision to make more friends both male and female to expand my social circle. I figure not only will it help me meet more people and interact but also give me a chance to meet someone special. Do you think this is a good idea? I don't really like to date people from work. Any comments on work relationships? I guess people meet a lot of their bfs and gfs from friends and people they already know, but is there anywhere else I could try? I've used myspace and have got a lot of numbers but they always seem to fade out being that we text and then I ask to like call them or something then they just start ignoring me then I say screw it and give up. Do you think that's because they hardly know me? What's the best way to meet someone, get a number, start dating and move from there? Is it better to do in person than on the internet? Why? A personal story would be nice to hear...
And no, there is nothing wrong with me. No physical or mental defect, rather a lack of experience which may be the reason why I have so much trouble getting a girl to commit. What I've found is a lot of girls I'll start talking to have been talking to someone else for a while and by the time me and her start getting to know eachother she's already got a boyfriend by the time I can make my move or w/e. It's frusterating. I feel like if they get to know me they'd love me but I seem to not get a chance either because they blow me off or they have their sights on someone else, which is one reason why I've decided to make friends with them and meet other people through them because it's exhuasting not knowing many females trying to meet them, date them just to find out something happens! grr...
Sorry there are so many questions but I have many questions to ask! THANKS

Nothing wrong with online.
But if your going for "very close to home", your best sticking with what you enjoy. for me that is book stores. Barnes and Nobles, Borders, that kind of thing.

Why does it seem like when I get numbers they just start ignoring me? I don't understand it. It's like why give me your number if your just going to end up not responding back to me? I know it's probably just my perspcetive but it happens with like very number I get to where eventually they just ignore me all together. I want to call them but I don't want to be all intrusive so I usually ask if I can call them later and they completely ignore me. It's not like i'm constantly up in their buisness or bothering them in any way. I mean, it's on myspace, if they don't want to give me their number or want to like "get rid of me" then just say no and I'll be like ok, but i honestly don't think they are trying to get rid of me and are wanting to chat, that is until they start ignoring me. What's the deal? Why do they give me their numbers then just like blow me off? Is there anything I can do that can stop this from happening? Thanks!

Without being rude, I would say to you...MAN UP and stop whining...women don't like weak men or men that are afraid to assert themselves. Call her up...don't ask permission, just do it...Stop being so shy and get out there!!! I, for one, would get bored with some guy that was so timid...that is jmo of course

To see what ya gona do with it. Well partly. Are you following the no call for 24 hours rules? Less is more and a hell of alot more affective in some cases.
My sister Harmony told me of this guy she once gave her number too. Hot, smart, sexy, well employeed. But he would throw up on her over the text. So he had everything just to drop the ball by dumbing himself down over the text and calls.
Perhaps this is where your Bambi is hearing you snap your twig.

Whatever you had for breakfast....go get yourself another box.
That line is great on so many levels.

Who says I'm whining? Is it just me or is it the polite thing to do to ask to call them? I see nothing wrong with that, but maybe I should say screw the politeness and start acting like acomplete ass and disrespect them anyways? Hm, thanks!
Still though, thanks for being blunt. I'll try that out next time

I'm definitly not afriad to assert myself but I stumble upon things where it just makes no sense to me. I can relate with how women don't like "passive" guys because I've had women act the same way towards me. They call 24/7 and there is no anticipation or anything to let me be me and it gets annoying....DUH! Ok, we got that sherlock! Moving on...
It's obviously a way in how I am percieved. It makes more and more sense to me why texting seems like a waste of time. If the woman dosen't know anything about me and all I do is text her it gives her the impression that I'm like going to be a, what you say, "weak" man. Generally NOBODY, men or women, like weak characters because as human beings its just draining and no matter how we say otherwise we often tend to find it pathedic in some sense. With that said, texting seems a tad sumissive and no one wants to feel drained from anyone especially when they don't even know the person. So, being that most people just would rather assume things, I suppose I ought to call them and say f*** it if they don't respond because more than likely texting makes me seem... ah yes... weak.

Throw up on her over text? How do you do that? Is it just another way of saying blow up her phone w/text?
