Posted by Koda on 01.19.2014, 06:11 PM: Relationships, Crushes and Dates Thread Well I know there is a Random Thoughts area, that sometimes brings up the topic, but I wanted an actual thread. I was just interested to hear everyone's stories with relationships, dates or crushes.

Posted by husky51 on 01.20.2014, 05:10 AM: After my school days were over, I had no girlfriends until after I got out of the navy. I knew a lot of girls/women but couldn't establish a relationship with them except for being friends... I found it hard to try and put the make on a women that I thought of as a sister... The one girl who was attracted to me was only 13 when I came to know her (I was 24 or so). She told me later (when she was about 40) that I was the only guy in her young teen ages that didn't hit on her, but that she would have done anything I wanted.

Posted by husky51 on 01.20.2014, 01:06 PM: You are very welcome, Mush. And thank you for your comment.

Posted by foreignfilmfreak on 02.05.2014, 10:45 PM: Aw crap. So the guy I had a crush on just messaged me asking me to have tea with him. I accepted but now I'm just like, "Oh frig, how do I even talk to him?!". D:

Posted by Orphic Okapi on 02.06.2014, 07:01 PM: When I was younger I had the most crippling anxiety around girls that I liked. Not around girls in general, because I think half of my friends were girls. But if I liked a certain girl I would spend ten minutes thinking about the next thing I should say and exactly how to word it and whether or not it was creepy, etc. By the time I had finally settled on what I wanted to say the moment in the conversation was long gone. It might be an unavoidable stage (for introverts, at least, this stuff seems to come more naturally for extroverts).

Posted by foreignfilmfreak on 02.06.2014, 09:38 PM: I'm one of those weird people with social anxiety where I don't really care what I say as long as I say something. lol But most of my friends find it endearing and I haven't scared off anyone yet (although I do swear a lot unintentionally).

Posted by husky51 on 02.06.2014, 11:41 PM: Believe me when I say that I was much the same in my youth... I don't think I started coming out to people until I was in my early 20's, possibly partly because of my military time... |
Posted by foreignfilmfreak on 02.07.2014, 12:01 AM: In this case, it's not just me with anxiety problems. He does too, I think. :B He was friends with one of my closest friends who was here last year on exchange, and she usually did photo shoots with him (here's to hoping he doesn't ask me to model...).

Posted by husky51 on 02.13.2014, 07:58 PM: Don't give up, fen, really don't. You are a very pretty woman and some guy just hasn't smartened up to the fact that you are an attractive person as well. We all know you somewhat and I think that what I say is true. (well, otherwise, I wouldn't say it lol)
|
Posted by fenkashi on 02.13.2014, 08:24 PM: Aww thanks husky ^^ I have the opposite problem, unfortunately =( No idea what I'm really looking for in a relationship so I never know what to do with guys that are interested in one. And idk, there's already so much to do with life. I haven't felt the lack of a boyfriend.
|
Posted by foreignfilmfreak on 02.13.2014, 10:05 PM: That's not weird, Fen. I have friends who also feel that way. It's fine to. When you feel ready to, then that's when is most important. I hope, if I remain single much longer that I could actually be that way somehow. x)
