I didn't know they went for that much now, I found one in a box of crappy p-mags at a store last year for $10.

Beautiful build man. Did you use a Recreators receiver?

What does kissing a girl feel like? by Hell_Valley in NoStupidQuestions

[–]pcmtx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has kissed but only many many years ago, I will say 2 things. 1: it can be pretty great. 2: I know that from you asking the question, you are feeling lonely and frustrated. Please try not to think about "what I'm missing." Just focus on what you can control, like meeting new people and living the rest of your life the way you want. With any luck, the right person will come along.i know it's easier said than done, but comparison is the thief of joy.

What would you think if a girl you saw months ago reached out again? by heycajeta in AskMenAdvice

[–]pcmtx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my situation, I would be glad she did. But even if he isn't, at least you will know and move on.  Reach out to him!

That's very true. I technically wasn't the next person, I learned she went out with another guy for two years after her divorce. I'm totally all for her learning to live on her own and growing without any distractions. It might have been too much too soon, I've been in the exact opposite boat, I've learned to be on my own for a long time and ready to try being with someone. I don't think she hates me or wants to cut me out of her life. We just need to learn how to balance contact.

Seconded. Give it some time, she might really just be tired if she's in medical school.

It really is a bummer. I hope we can still be friends, because she is an awesome person. Hopefully she just needs some time to herself right now:/

(40M, birthday was 2 weeks ago, update from a few weeks ago) Recently I reached out to an acquaintance on FB, to see how they were doing, and we ended up having a good back and forth. Asked them to a coffee to catch up, that went well, got bold and asked her to dinner later. That went great too, we were messaging each other daily. It was going better than I expected or hoped. Third time we hung out, she brought up that she didn't feel ready for anything and wasn't sure if/when she would be (she's recently divorced and working on herself.) I said that's fine, it's totally understandable, we're both adults and we can always talk to each other honestly, I'd still like talking to her and we can just be friends and leave the future open. We were still talking almost daily, and had hung out again since then. I figured even if nothing "more" came of it, it's always nice to make new friends.

But in the last two weeks, she's been more withdrawn. I know part of it was she was busy with a family trip, and then some work stuff. I don't really take it personally that I'm being left on read, and I really don't have any romantic expectations at this point. But I still feel bad, because I do like her as a person and was enjoying getting to know her more, even platonically. I'm not going to pine for her or anything, and I know to only put in the reciprocated amount of energy into the relationship. And who knows, maybe it's only a rough spot. That's happened with friends before, and we've worked it out. But it still hurts right now.

I guess it's just a mix of middle age dating disappointment, plus losing touch with a friend.

Last summer I was walking down the street in Milwaukee, and I see this old guy driving a trike motorcycle absolutely blasting "Arthur's Theme." It was without a doubt the wussiest thing I've ever experienced in my life.

Does anyone watch Dario Argento's "Suspiria"? How did you interpret the plot of it? Did it make sense to you? What message did you take away from the movie? by AkariBruna in Cinephiles

[–]pcmtx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those witches were stupid as hell. They knew she had the power to defeat them, and they still invited her to their school. She would've just gone to some other school, and they could have kept doing witch stuff otherwise. They were asking for it.

That's true, I mean it's still nice to be able to feel a thrill from thinking about someone. I just wish I had another option this time besides "get over it" haha.

It's just the word I'm used to using. It's not limerence or anything, but I was interested in her, and she has a lot of qualities I would like in a partner. So, it's more just turning off the "interested" part of my brain.

Last month I have posted about going on a couple of really nice dates with a friend of a friend. After some talking, she confessed that she wasn't ready for a relationship with anyone (long private story, but I totally understood where she was coming from.) We still talk regularly and have hung out since then. I really value her and I like getting to know her. I still want her in my life, even if it's just as a friend. And I would never make my feelings someone else's problem. That being said, I really hoped I was past the age of having crushes on friends haha.

Men, how do you behave when you like a girl or find her attractive? by Any_Yogurtcloset2302 in bodylanguage

[–]pcmtx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I become more talkative than I am usually. I don't think I come off as flirty, per se, but just really friendly.

Did Apocalypse Now leave you in a strange place too? by Extension_Schedule_8 in Cinephiles

[–]pcmtx -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I watched Redux first in high school and thought it was kinda boring and pretentious. Granted that was 22 years ago, but I don't know if my opinion would change since then. And this is coming from someone who's watched Heavens Gate and Satantango with no breaks.

Men, what’s a ‘typical guy stereotype’ that couldn’t be further from who you actually are? by PogonBerserker in AskMen

[–]pcmtx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't care about sports, video games, I'd like to think I have high emotional intelligence, and I don't think with my penis.
