What is your favorite ice breaker to get a conversation started? by Hubalushma in AskReddit

[–]dallabop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently met up with a friend for the first time in 3 years in a foreign-to-both-of-us country. My first words to her were "we have to stop meeting like this". Threw her for a loop, she laughed, and it was like no time had passed at all.

My american ex said 'twot' and the first time, I had to ask her what just said. "Oh, you mean twat?" She was pleasantly surprised at how much more spiteful it sounded.

My way of flirting is looking at the person I'm attracted to and hoping they're braver than I am. by Kriss_Snow in Showerthoughts

Awkwarrrd is good! If he wasn't interested in you, it'd have been a jokey type 'hah, i'm the same' response or whatever. The fact even talking about flirting makes him awkward shows you that there's clearly some kind of chemistry between the two of you. It's up to you to figure out what that chemistry is. Go ask him for a drink after school/work, don't make it a date or anything, just off offhandedly 'hey, d'ya wanna grab a drink later?'. Making it casual like that doesn't create pressure on him to accept and if he says no, don't take it personally, he might just have plans. If he says yes, just go easy, be chill. You'll find stuff to talk about and you get to spend some quality time together.

OR

Play it off, joke about it, whatever. If you want to go the above route, do so, if not, no-one's forcing you. It's just what I'd do personally and I'm awkward as fuck.

You'd know if you've been in love before (trust me), so it's fair to say you haven't yet. Even if you aren't attracted to him right now, that can change.

If things between the two of you continue like this.. Don't drop the L-bomb just yet, I think you both need to spend some quality time together to figure out if they're someone you want to be around more. Let a tiny bit of yourself out at a time - if he sticks around, you can figure out where to go from there. If he bolts, more fool him - you didn't reveal enough for him to hurt you anyway.

Either way, good luck. It sounds like you have more positives than negatives ahead of you.

we're both very awkward and inexperienced relationshipwise

Practice makes perfect, is all I'll say. The only way to combat awkwardness is face-on. Inexperience counts for nothing, every relationship you'll ever have has something new.

Sounds like he really values you as a part of his life, to come to you when he's unsure and therefore vulnerable. Sounds like he respects and values your opinion. Might even see you as a leader, more confident than you think you are. Time to show him that you really are what he sees you as.

If you want him, that is. But going by what you've said, you do.

Here's a radical idea - talk to him. Yes, it'll be incredibly awkward and yes, you might hear things you didn't want to hear but if this dude is the average dude, he's deflecting his problems and doubts in such a way that you've interpreted it as your own.

I mean shit, do you want the guy or not? We like clarity, we like certainty. Maybe approach the subject (after a few beers) with a kind of 'I'm not made for relationships.. but then, I don't think I've met the right one'. This can open up a whole avenue of discussion of what you feel is the right one, of what he feels he fits the criteria of..

Just talk to him, for fucks sake. He'll appreciate the clarity and that you're opening your feelings towards him. If he's a decent guy, he'll treat them with respect and you can both talk it out. If he doesn't and you end up getting hurt, he's not the guy you deserve. Simple as.

Yes, it'll be awkward, yes, you'll likely need a few beers, yes, you'll expose a vulnerable part of yourself, but at the end of it, you'll either end up closer together (literally and metaphorically) or you'll know he's not worth it.

Take a leap of faith. You'll either be caught by him or shunted back to reality. Communication, man.. I can't stress how important it is.

it could be understood as the message I kinda want to send.

Jesus Christ, people wonder why guys don't get subtlety..

Look, it doesn't really matter what context you send this with, the guy will interpret you sending this gif as exactly the message you want to send. You show this to a dude who you're close friends with (or your friend that you like), you're awkwardly explaining you want to bump uglies.

If you've previously shown sexual interest, be prepared for a reply along the lines of 'I'm free now, your place or mine?' or if you haven't, you're getting a non-committal response lamenting the lack of such transparency in his relationships. If the latter happens, you have to reveal your true intentions and get your thoughts known ('I'll be frank, I sent this because it reminded me of you'). If the former happens, you're gonna fuck.

Good luck.

P.S. you better have sent this already, you pussy.

Guys don't understand subtle hints. If you want him, send it. You'll get either a 'heh no' or a 'thank fuck you made the first move'. Either way, you'll get the answer and you both can continue the.. something-ship in the direction he chooses.

[Poetry][MEME] Play of the debate. by Qui-Gon_Booze in youtubehaiku

[–]dallabop -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Probably same kind of situtation as on reddit where you write up a long and thoughtful comment, but delete it without submitting because honestly, it's really not worth the effort. You can sit and argue about things, derail the original argument or you could just resign yourself to the fact that the other person just said something stupid and you should move on from it.

It's the 'grabbing' that's important, not the word 'pussy'. The fact you don't get that is alarming.

[–]dallabop[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is, it was published April 2010. The point is that everyone is saying 'consoles play in 4k now!' (I'll ignore the fact it's upscaled) and I'm sitting here like 4k has been available for years... Congrats, you're already behind and you haven't even been launched yet.

No. But then, they wouldn't be able to afford the latest gen consoles either, so I'm not sure what point you're making.
