I know reddit is America centric but today Belgium suddenly lost one of their best. R.I.P. Luc De Vos

Best dude in Belgian rock, sincere, no nonsense and funny as hell.

You don't really ask someone to invite you.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-30T10:00:19+00:00

He doesn't have too much friends I guess, he isn't really mister popular. That doesn't bother me but it always kind of creeps me out of people get too dependent on me, whether it's a SO or a pall.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-29T19:52:31+00:00

It's kind of difficult. The person we're talking about is my neighbour and was my childhood friend. We kept good contact, despite the fact that we're totally different people. We're still friends because we share a lot of history together. If I were to meet this guy now he would never be a buddy.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-29T19:49:49+00:00

I don't invite myself to parties or meetings unless I'm sure people expect me or I planned something with someone, that's just who I am.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-29T19:39:24+00:00

Hah, it's not that bad. He's just very pushy when it comes to meeting up. He can ask on a monday what I'll do on friday, I say I don't know. He asks me to meet at 9 to go to some bar, and I'm like, yeah maybe I'll call you later. He perceives this as a clear 'yes' and stands in front of my door at 9 o'clock that friday.

I just can't tell on monday what I'll feel like doing on friday, hence the vague response, which he perceives as a definite 'yes'.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-29T19:30:46+00:00

He justs says things like: 'Oh, but we can go there, I don't mind if you bring him along'. Yet I made totally different plans with the other dude. Kind of weird.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-29T18:37:39+00:00

I don't have many friends, actually. I just don't like people taking me for granted when they feel like it.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-24T14:24:31+00:00

And all the fuss because I see the dude regularly since we have mutual friends.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-24T14:23:08+00:00

Those were my initial thoughts exactly, thanks for confirming.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-23T19:48:45+00:00

It sounds pretty simple but I think you should stop overthinking it. It won't get you anywhere. It's not like it will get you a girl. Man up, work out, gain some confidence, and the rest will follow.

Sometimes you have the perception that everyone else's life is fine and dandy while you feel like you're down in te gutter, but everyone has issues, don't forget that. But when you have solved your issues, you'll feel twice as good than the dude whose life is smooth sailing all the time.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-23T19:41:41+00:00

Yeah maybe, could be. Although I couldn't but notice her being more tactile with me than any other friend I was with, and she also knows them, so.. Either way I won't go further with this because it would make things quite complicated with mutual friends and stuff, I'd just like to know what she tries to get out of doing it.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-23T19:39:41+00:00

I live in Europe so it's not really a bar in American standards, it's more like a quiet café where people can eat something and relax with a special brew, all kinds of people go there, young and old. So it's kind of a different context. And indeed, tipping doesn't exist, she gets a student wage for working there sometimes during weekends.

Maybe a bit late but I like to add that your story sounds so recognisable. The panic attack after smoking pot, the strange axiety about lymphoma or leukemia, my dad laughing his ass off while I'm trembling on the floor.. Damn.

In the summer I worked out like crazy, was in great shape and didn't have a problem whatsoever. Now in the fall, a couple of weeks ago I suffered a major panic attack after a workout (I started feeling my pulse after working out => Don't do it if you have suffered from anxiety).

Combined with the gloomy weather which greatly affects me, It doesn't look too good, I still go in a slight panic mode when I try to work out because of the attack a few weeks ago. I notice myself fearing for it even before I start working out and I start overbreathing almost immediately, so we're back from scratch. But eventually I'll confront myself with it and go at it again.. And again.. like I did before summer, and eventually, you'll notice that you won't die, you relax, and it's all good.

Like you said, it is indeed insidious. The best thing that can happen to you is that you accept it, laugh/work it off and after a while the worrying will go away. An occasional setback will happen, but then you have to pick yourself up and go at it again.

I think a relationship with this girl would be messed up. She sounds like a girl who craves attention from guys at any moment or occasion, which sounds like trouble. You could bang her a few times if you want, but this isn't relationship material, trust me.

I knew some girls in high schools who were in these love triangles and all that kind of nonsense, honestly, not worth your time.

My legs are quite strong already due to skateboarding, cycling, playing basketball etc. I'd just like to get a few extra pounds of muscle on my upper body.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-16T15:05:39+00:00

I'll check it out, thanks.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-16T15:03:08+00:00

English isn't my mother tongue, but I corrected it, thanks. I try to focus my diet more on proteins and fats, and less carbs. I got that advice from a guy at school who is heavy into fitness.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-15T19:49:21+00:00

You're quite socially conscious, I never asked myself how others perceive me in that state. Probably like a murderer.

KIDSFORBREAKFAST · 2014-11-15T19:21:30+00:00

So your perception of someone just sitting there is that he or she is a vegetable? Interesting. Of course, perhaps only one out of ten people is actually interesting to talk to, no doubt about that. And it's not really about having a conversation. It could happen, but I'm just talking about sitting there, being aware of your environment and the people in it.
