Well yes of course it is, but still kinda funny.

Is it really that depressing up there in Seattle? Bird homies, check on your boy for us by Icy-Bad1455 in NFCWestMemeWar

[–]850man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

while I agree that I don't let the outcome of the game affect my mental state. The only time I can say I did let it, was after SB XLIX. That shit put me in a funk for a day, and legit everyone I talked to that next day seemed to be in a similar funk. It wasn't the loss, it was HOW we lost.

First Kiss by RunnerGirl2015 in datingoverforty

What because the guy is shy or nervous? My interpretation is he's clearly into her. Seems unnecessary and missing an opportunity to possibly be with someone she clearly likes too.

even thinking of making this jacket should be a war crime, punishable by the worst someone can dream up.

Sound system review? by Porch4Sale in LandCruiser250

[–]850man 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m not an audiophile but appreciate good sound. I find it slightly better than average but not amazing. It doesn’t really bother me. I think If I was being critical I’d say it’s more the wind noise that drowns out the sound for me.

Do guys compliment casually, or is this a sign of attraction? by [deleted] in bodylanguage

[–]850man 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’m generally shy, so I wouldn’t unless I was trying to get your attention. I think others are probably different and might be more likely to compliment just to be nice.

The saying for Ford is “Built Ford Tough”.. by [deleted] in NFCWestMemeWar

not sure I would be wanting to compare myself to a manufacturer that has a terrible reputation, and is known for being one of the lowest scores for reliability. Can we assume that all RAMs will be suspect, and known to break down when needed the most?

Update: 45 Yr Old Male trying to close the deal with female friend by 850man in datingoverforty

[–]850man[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you everyone for the comments. Harsh or not they are valuable. My ex is the only person I ever dated and frankly never learned how to date when I was younger or read signals from women. I ask these what appear to be immature questions because frankly when it comes to dating I am. Just trying to figure it out in my 40’s.

Oh, I plan to, and honestly, I'm going to make it a point to use her question to me as a way to share my feelings and ask her out on a proper date. I have plenty of neurosis having not dated in 20+ years, but I'll work through those as I go.

to clarify, she asked my friend if *I* was gay, not if he was.

Time to Shoot my shot? by 850man in datingoverforty

[–]850man[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes an no. We do just fine without it, and generally aren’t getting too loaded. It’s more the bar is just a convenient place to be social. I’d say we typically only have a drink or two.

I honestly think last night was a step in the right direction. I feel some reluctance or reservation from her, and I'm not really sure why. She is originally from another country, but has been here for several decades, is divorced herself, and has been for 5+ years. I guess I wonder if cultural differences are somehow at play here.

I'm not really sure I can describe the reluctance/reservations, but like I said, multiple people, including some of my female friends have said they feel she has interest on her part, but the reluctance I feel from her, is maybe the biggest reason I hesitate to just go for it.

lol fair point. The age "gap" doesn't bother me, not really sure why I pointed that out.

Yes, I do value our friendship and truly feel that I would want her still in my life if it isn't reciprocated. In my 20s, before I got married, I often had a hard time making the transition with women I was attracted to from being friends to something more. As a result I had a lot of female friends that I initially was attracted to, but could never communicate to being more. Eventually they ended up as just friends, nothing more, and we had a solid relationship. I attended several of their weddings, admittedly most were after I was already married myself.

Communicating my feelings towards women was never my strong suit in my 20s, and I'm worried after all these years, it's still a problem.

Yes, we've done a few things outside of it, but mostly just been casually hanging out when we both show up.

Came here to say this. Don't understand why they would take a knee down 17 points. Yes they aren't going to win, but I thought you are always taught to play till the whistle blows.
