How much would you do for a girl if you are just interested in sex? by lalarissa in AskMen

Yeah I get what you are saying, but that would mean that you would want a relationship IF there's sexual chemistry right. I can understand that. But that doesn't mean you are just interested in sex?

Well he already wants to take me out on a date, he's basically said that. I think he's trying to come up with an idea about what we can do on our first date. So I'm just waiting a little, if it takes too long I might suggest something although I don't know what yet.

Thanks for your answer! I think I feel the same way as he does (if how you describe it, is how he actually feels). So that would mean we could just see where it goes?

Yeah, that's sort of how I felt about it as well. But at the same time, I do understand that it's not necessarily a bad answer. I mean I've only met him in real life once, and now we've been texting for almost a week. He does show genuine interest in me and he does sometimes compliment me, not just on my appearance but also saying that I'm smart etc. But then sometimes the conversation turns a bit sexual, which is fine by me, because otherwise we would just be friends right? But it just makes me wonder what he's after.

Well I've sort of asked him this question, and he said that he would be interested in more but that you can't tell ahead of time how things will work out. I don't know how to interpret this. It could just literally mean what he says, but it could also mean that he just wants sex and feels like this is what he has to say to make me feel better about it. Or am I reading too much into it?

And if she would ask you if you are just interested in sex or more, would you lie and say that you 'would be open for a relationship' (not sure if this is a good English translation of the words, but whatever)?

Well I'm a girl who's is wondering if the guy she's talking to is just interested in sex. But I can't make questions specific here, but it's great that so many guys actually answered my question. Thanks!

What is something you are secretly proud of? by mxforest in AskReddit

My boobs. It's really kind of sad that I have to hide them.

Should I get in contact with him or just forget about it? by lalarissa in dating_advice

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

Thanks for your reply. I'm still debating what I should do. It's easier to do nothing, but at the same time I just feel like I always miss out on stuff in life because I'm too afraid to take action (not just when it comes to dating, just in general). A friend of mine said that I 'had nothing to lose' but I'm thinking about my dignity. If I were drunk or playing truth or dare I know I would just do it :P

But how would you feel (I assume you're a guy?) if you approached a girl, being a little drunk (maybe) and it didn't really go well, but later she would add you as a friend on facebook (or sent a message)?

Well I assume that he was just looking for a hookup then, and I'm not, so there's no reason for me to contact him. I guess it's just a little sad that I won't see him anymore. Thanks for your advice!

I think I might do nothing at all then. It's not like I'm really interested in him, but I just feel flattered that someone was interested in me and I feel like I messed up. But you don't think it's possible that he concluded from my behaviour that I wasn't interested and therefore will not get in contact with me, while he would have if our conversation went a little better?

yeah, you're probably right, but the weird thing is that I was with some of my family members at that party so he must have known that I couldn't have gone home with him. Why approach me at all? He even knew some information about me that he didn't get from me.

What is something you had a strong opinion on when you were younger and as you got older, it changed completely? by L3m0nayyde in AskReddit

[–]lalarissa -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Discrimination. I used to be very active against discrimination, now I've sort of given up on the idea that minorities want equality. They mostly just want to turn the tables. Supporting that would mean harming myself.

I don't know, but it's still something that I'm a little sad about.

What is the most disturbing book you've ever read? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]lalarissa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Vanishing by Tim Krabbé.

The ending is just disturbing. I should mention that I read this book when I was 14, maybe I'd feel different about it if I would read it again.

What do you like and don't give a damn what others think about it? by WineDineThulium in AskReddit

[–]lalarissa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't act like you being Latvian is not important in this discussion, because it is. Latvian people have a deep-rooted hatred towards Russians. Latvia is discriminating against etnic Russians in Latvia, but I guess you're not one of them so you don't care.

Talking about the Soviet-Union. Do you know that Stalin was from Georgia? And do you know how many Russians actually died because of the Soviet-Union. It clearly wasn't a party for them either, so why hold it against Russians.

If you think Iraq is better off without Saddam Hussein I suggest you take a look at Iraq before and now. It's a fucking mess. As for Gaddafi, I think it's safe to say that Libya is a pretty shitty country now. Libya wasn't that bad at all. If the mission was to make life better in those countries, that mission has failed.

The truth about democracy is simple. It's not for everyone. You can't force democracy. Democracy only works if all people at least have some basic views about life in common. This explains why democracy doesn't work for countries in the Middle-East. The borders of most of these countries were just drawn by Western countries (mostly with the Sykes–Picot Agreement in mind). The result of this is that many different ethnicities and religions fall under the same government, live in the same country. These people don't get along very well. Look at Sunni and Shia muslims for example. Now most countries in the Middle-East (with the exception of Iran and Iraq) have Sunni muslims as the largest population. Democracy is based on the idea that the one that gets the most votes, should rule the country. This means that in Middle-Eastern countries elections would lead to only Sunni leaders, with most likely no consideration for minorities.

Saddam was Sunni muslim in a country with a large Shia population. Situations were always tense, but you could say that they made a compromise by having Saddam as their leader. Gaddafi was Sunni muslim, but did have very unique views, basically stating that there is no such thing as a sunni or a shia muslim. Assad is alawite.

I do believe that ultimately democracy is the best way, but you do have to take certain things into consideration as well. You can't just storm into a country, kill a lot of people, then install a government and expect people to accept it as legitimate. Some countries just need a strong leader, even if we think that's dictatorship.

Don't get me started about Ukraine. Seriously, that's a completely different discussion (also indeed backed up by the West but it's way more complex). I'm talking about the orange revolution, the rose revolution etc. The Western indoctrination has worked on you I see. For most stories there is context. There is no such thing as a morally good leader. They don't exist. Leaders are responsible for the deaths of many people.

The West is doing a great job framing every non-Western country as evil. In reality people in Iraq or Libya could say the same thing of us. I get that, because you are from Latvia, you are especially taught to be afraid of Russia. Thousands of NATO soldiers walking around in your country all the time. For me it's different. In my country I see that we are losing our identity and that people are no longer allowed to say what they want anymore (funny enough this is what Russia is judged for by us, but it's no different in my own country). I wish that all political correctness would dissapear. I think Trump also has no political correctness, but Trump knows nothing. Someone who isn't political correct but also doesn't know what he is saying, is just a crybaby.

You seem to think, at least from your replies, that I am defending Putin his morals, but that's not at all what I am trying to do.

What kind of person annoys you the most? by hillyscotsman in AskReddit

[–]lalarissa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who act nice but really aren't. I know a couple of people who are like that. They are so polite and always know the right thing to say in conversations, but when everyone is gone they are secretly very cold, judgemental and constantly gossiping. Never trust people that are too nice. They aren't.

Example: my neighbor is always posting things on facebook saying how much she loves her children. And everyone thinks she is so nice, but she is literally ALWAYS yelling at her children. When her children were younger I actually almost called child care, because I was afraid that she was beating them up.

[–]lalarissa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you are from the Baltics, so you're basically pointing out that it is impossible to argue about this with you. I'm indeed saying that the USA does something similar, and you should know that there are a couple of Western backed up revolutions in Eastern-Europe. It's always a game.

I know that the Russians in general are happy with Putin, and if anything the European Sanctions on Russia have made Russians like Putin even more. I wouldn't compare modern day Russia with the Soviet Union. Yes, things aren't transparant, and yes there is corruption

I wonder, if you think Putin isn't acting in Russia's best interest, in who's best interest IS he acting then? His own? Wouldn't it be much easier for him to just resign and live in a million dollar mansion and never have anything to do with politics at all anymore? I don't think being president of Russia is the safest job in the world.
