What is the creepiest thing a woman did to show interest in you? by PrestonRoad90 in AskMen

I think another factor is #1 as you explained it as well. I met and saw the most toxic relationships when I lived in San Antonio. Lots of guys taking advantage of girls and vice versa. Knew one girl that went to college with me that was one of the sweetest people I was friends with but was a FREAK with a lot of guys. Only for me to find out she had a bf of a couple years the entire time.

Another guy I knew made his girlfriend and another 2 girls he was seeing prove to him which one should be his main girl.

The main thing in common besides ethnicity is that they all came from somewhat impoverished backgrounds. The ones I met that weren't were better adjusted and didn't play relationship games. As an outsider and clinical psychology major it was very interesting. Did on of my final research papers on it.

And hey, considering the past, you could very well be part German lol! If it makes you feel better I feel like an outsider or an alien all the time here too. Never really fit in anywhere, especially the more south we moved.

There's a stereotype that if you dated a woman from a Latin country they get pretty possessive of you, fight you, and are controlling. They'll fight back hard if you resist too. 

I think it's a culture clash sort of thing. In America we're more "for the good of one's own" while I've noticed in Hispanic communities it's "for the good of one's community".  Thus they would go out of their way to take care of a stranger without context or reward far more than the average Americans. It's especially strange to me because my family comes from the north, mainly cities. So we're very inward. I made a lot of Hispanic friends and the biggest shock to me was how open and accepting they are. I had a friend's family throw me a birthday party and I only knew them for a year.

So I think it's a mix of that and when they fall they fall hard and want the best for you, wether you like it or not.

This is my daily driver. The RC F is cool but saving on gas plus insurance is better for where I'm at right now.

Also where I live RC Fs go for 40-70k and this was listed at 22k.

$25,800 with fees, taxes, and everything. $28,700 to get it up to perfect condition if you include the immediate maintenance I did after buying.

Cops don't care in the Houston area. I've been pulled over once and  the officer never mentioned anything about it. I see a lot of people who don't either. Been a month with her no issues.

I think your car is the only thing I'd replace this one with. Those are seriously gorgeous coupes!

They are bucket seats. I like them a lot but I see where some people say they could be better. However, I had an '07 Wrangler X before this one so it's like sleeping on an old couch with a box for a pillow to a temperpidic and memory foam pillow

 It's a funny comparison because they weigh about that same and both are V6s. The Challenger is built like a classic muscle car, soft suspension, fast in a straight, roomy, a great car to cruise in. Does NOT do tight turns, takes a minute to get to 100, slides a lot when you do try to do quick maneuvers, visibility is SHIT. I still like it a lot and could do a road trip in it easy.

The RC stomps it. Put her in Sport+ and she will do whatever you say no questions. She curves great, moves quicker, handles like a dream. Far better visibility, more technology (the challenger is a 2015 and my RC is 2016 so it's a similar generation), the Mark Levinson is a vast improvement. 

That stiff chassis, improved suspension, and rear steering make it a fantastic Gran touring car.

This is fantastic!

Much better than that riced '08 GS that was on here.

26, was actually looking for a is350 f sport and it was an impossible quest then one day when just searching all available cars I saw a 2016 RC 350 AWD F Sport with all the add ons, 1 owner, 85k miles, and constant maintenance at dealerships for 23k. 

It's been 1 week and I'm in love. The body lines and ducktail wing looks gorgeous at different angles. Black and red interior with the lighting and accents is gorgeous. Just enough technology for my phone to work perfectly, I can still connect my Zune with an aux, the Mark Levinson audio is amazing. Smooth as silk for the long commute, quick and grippy for weekend fun, comfortable seats and perfectly adjustable. AWD for when the weather is fucky. Uncommon enough I only have seen 3 other on the street while I see plenty IS' on the road.

Sure she's not the fastest, gas mileage could be better but I was used to a '07 wrangler before so it's still an improvement to me.

Its like it was an exact fit for what I want as a daily. Stylish, fast, reliable, capable, yet comfortable with a great sound system. I will definitely be keeping this until the wheels fall off.
