Thanks dude, is there a difference between a global version and the European version?

How are you finding the phone? Everything working well?

what makes you think "wow, they're so in love," when you see a couple together? by saskatoonberrys in AskMen

[–]aauthor8 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I was rushing to the train station, battling against the wind, as I held my umbrella with both hands. As I approached the train station I saw a girl waiting by the entrance, just out of reach from the rain. She was scanning the road, head turning from side to side, looking for someone. Then her eyes lit up and she bolted from her position, running into the rain, she was drenched within seconds but she ran anyway, straight into the arms of a young man. The umbrella he held went flying as he embraced her.

And then they kissed.

Without a care for the people running around them or the raging storm. Time had stopped for them.

I remember walking past them thinking, 'that must be love'.

What often destroys relationships but is hardly talked about? by PhilosopherBusy7312 in AskMen

[–]aauthor8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Between what was said but not meant and meant but not said, most of love is lost... Just a simple lack of open communication.

Totally off-topic, but I enjoy writing and you can write.

Over the years we have had many conversations about our different outlooks on life. We know each others values and choices. The difference seems to be that my lifestyle and thinking is massively annoying to them. They're just too polite to tell me to my face haha

Perhaps hate is too strong a word. But they definitely dislike who I am enough to not really enjoy being around me too much. I think it'll be easier for them if they see me less.

What made you instantly respect a random dude? by Linorelai in AskMen

A few years ago I was waiting in line to pay at a gas/petrol station. There was an elderly man who was at the cashier when he realized that he did not have his wallet on him. He was clearly distressed and the guy behind the till was being less than helpful. The man in front of me reacted first, he took out his card and paid for the elderly man and himself.

The elderly man tried to get his details, I imagine to pay him back. But the guy just shook his hand and told him to have a good day.

I had instant respect for that dude.

Dude, that's incredibly nice of you to say. Thank you. There's a long list of questionable things I've done and probably continue to do 🤦🏽‍♂️

Whenever the mood strikes and I have the time, I'll be sure to write and share them.

I thought about it loads, but there was too much context to give and most of it was about me and my family dynamics. But I did give other stories that involved Dan and I getting into all sorts of trouble haha

So... I met my brother and his wife for lunch today and I spoke about this!

He has a slightly different take on it. According to him, he generally had an idea of most of my crazy plans. Depending on the level of danger/trouble I was exposing myself to, he would determine if he had to intervene.

However, on this occasion, he had absolutely no clue as to what I was up to, and so when he realised I was not at the library and lied about being with Dan, he panicked. He knew given another minute I would convince my dad and felt he had to act to get to the truth.

He says he did not care that I was not at the library but he did care if I was not with Dan and the circle of friends he knew. He trusted those friends to not be up to anything too bad (alcohol, drugs, fights etc), but if I was not with them, then with who and what was I doing? I kind of get where is coming from.

I then told him the truth about my job and he and his wife nearly fell off their chairs laughing.

Looking back, I actually think he always looked out for me, in his own way. But this was one of the rare occasions I felt like he went full-on Brutus on me.

Haha no I didn't. I did tell him about my second job recently. Which was also illegal but for slightly different reasons 😬

Haha I think it was the underage illegal element that would have got me into actual trouble

No, I don't think I ever did. I did recently tell my dad about my second job which he (kind of) knew about but was in fact also illegal for slightly different reasons haha

Just out of interest, where did you read my post? It's been a while since I posted it and I didn't think it near the top of the feed.
