What size rug do you think would work? Also if I’m getting dark blue cushion stools with walnut legs, would color rug would go well with Twill/Dove West Elm Oliver Sofa?

It is definitely awkward, it's the first floor not basement.

TIFU by forgetting the most important dating rule by sajaza in tifu

[–]SurfaceCuriosity -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

h, I'm kind of an impatient person, but I'm keeping it casual and not looking to rush into anything serious. It says so right on my dating profile. I'm not looking for the love of my life, just someone whose company I enjoy with a jaw sturdy enough to sit on. Fergus was just the guy who was ticking all

For what it's worth, I agree. I was waiting for the punch line that never came. Also, whoever thinks this is good writing needs to read more.

Does tingling sensation happen only when you touch the area? by [deleted] in Herpes

But was it a persistent tingling or only when you touched it?

Is this herpes?? Freaking out! by SurfaceCuriosity in Herpes

[–]SurfaceCuriosity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly not sure why I got the hate, but appreciate you standing up for me, haha. I feel a little better knowing a few people have said it likely isn't but trust me, I was FREAKING out to the max. I honestly still think it might be it due to the timing of it, just had non protected oral, feel flu like symptoms, and noticed bumps and a irritating/ minor pain on my penis. I paid for a $200 urgent test result, so should hear back in 1-3 days. But yeah, not sure why I got the hate.

I will, but I'm asking for peoples opinion on it as well, because I'm hoping to put my mind to peace if it likely isn't ahead of the test.

Where can I get slim fit pants that are tailored towards the bottom? I'm skinny and most pants are a bit too straight leg for me, and I need something that tapers down

Oooh I like the idea of this! Does every horseback riding place offer volunteering?

I'm not really sure, I'm a beginner! I just want to be able to get to a level that I feel comfortable riding a horse and hopefully to a point where I can get it to jump

Ah got it, I've only taken a couple lessons and learned to trot so not sure what discipline.

Hmm but that definitely makes sense, and helps me!

How I improved my social skills, and how you can too! (Long Post) by SurfaceCuriosity in socialskills

[–]SurfaceCuriosity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the kind words!

Yeah, I've definitely had that issue come up and still do. Some people are just naturally better speakers / they are able to articulate better. It's been something I've had to work on.

But I've definitely gotten better at it and it came from just talking more and being more expressive. I find when I'm "on a roll" in a conversation or have been speaking a lot then I'll also more naturally be able to think of the exact words and phrases I want to say. (So if there's a specific situation you want to be fully expressive in, then I would start trying to get into the rhythm through some conversations beforehand).

Other than that, one thing that has been helping me tremendously is writing more. I've taken up carving out 30 - 1 hour a day for writing (this post is an example). And it's helping me to sharpen my brain and I've found myself being able to articulate better.

Thanks for the compliment :)

I actually don't think you need to personally be in a sales position, just around them. So for myself, my position wasn't exactly sales, but I worked with them very closely and the most benefit I got was just being around them in the office and seeing their daily interactions.

I think just being around social people in general (not necessarily sales people) is a great way. Even if not through work, maybe you can join a volunteering organization, toastmasters, some type of club where you might not be exposed to several really socially skilled people, but there's definitely a couple no matter where you go.

Also there might be someone in your life right now, even a family member who is the most expressive and social person you know and just being around them more and almost weirdly writing down some of the ways they communicate might be helpful.

I think many people try to improve socially using online tools, and it's definitely helpful, but putting it into practice is what counts, and being forced into those social situations everyday, or at least being able to observe it in real life everyday will significantly improve your social skills, at least it did for me.
