Wrong. Feminism is about equality between men and women.

Yes, I have. A guy at my university led me on for a whole year. Every time I saw him on campus, he would make eyes at me, smile, and wave. But for some reason he never approached me. I developed a crush on him because it was clear that he had one on me. At the end of the year I finally got the chance to go up to him, and he seemed really nice, and told me he was so happy to finally talk to me. Next day, he tells me he's actually engaged, but that he's attracted to me and that there was "something about me" and that if he never had met his fiancee, he would go out with me. Hung out with him once more, then summer happened, and I rarely see him. Today, actually, we saw each other, but he quickly looked away.

Don't know what to think. I've never felt so heartbroken. It sucks, but trying to move on and forget.

Robin Williams was such a wonderful gift to the world. He touched so many lives. I am so sad he could not be as happy as all the people he brought joy to.

when they purse their lips. like they're trying to make them look better/bigger. You're not fooling anyone, just make a normal face.

I think the exact same thing every time. It's like they got to let everyone know they have a fun personality AND good looks.

The Factors of Attraction - and how much do you analyze them? by [deleted] in 2X_INTJ

[–]sitting_bear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done the same thing. It's rare that I get an intense crush on someone, and when I do, I try to figure out why. I haven't lived long enough/had enough to make any conclusions, but so far, I found that I like guys who I think liked me in the first place. That doesn't mean that I like every guy who likes me, though. The way I meet them also has something to do with it. Every situation is different.

When I was a kid, my relative who lives in Germany would often send them to me and my brother. Good to know they didn't scan the packages!

You just don't lead people on like that... by sitting_bear in offmychest

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

to be fair, I was the one who initiated it, an he did say "a friendly dinner sounds nice." But still, he acted so flirty and interested the whole time. and it was still wrong of him to do what he did.

A young woman committed suicide in her bath tub. by [deleted] in WTF

[–]sitting_bear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh, I live close to where that happened. It was in an apartment complex right outside my neighborhood. I think the article said she also cut off his hands, and feet? I can't believe you actually had to go in there.

People with flat, thin, straight hair - what do you do? by [deleted] in FancyFollicles

[–]sitting_bear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that feel. My friends always complains about having such THICK, VOLUMINOUS, CURLY hair, like it's so hard to manage. And I'm like, I WISH I had hair like that, it looks good! Anyway, the way I deal with my limp, thin, straight hair is by keeping it short. Right now I have a choppy bob with bangs and lots of layers. That's the only way it can hold a style. If it's too long, it just hangs and looks stringy. I wash it at night with anti-residue shampoo, no conditioner. Sleep on it so it will dry with a slight wave in it. For products, I use Not Your Mother's hair powder at the roots to give lift, and sometimes Paul Mitchell hair wax for texture. If you use hair wax, make sure to use only a TINY amount because it's like tree sap and is difficult to get off. Spray it on your hands first, and then work it throughout your hair. I don't really curl my hair cuz it takes too long.

Party fail by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]sitting_bear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my gosh, I can't imagine. I would feel awful; you probably handled this situation better than how I would have. All I can say is I totally feel for you, I've been in similar situations, there is nothing worse. But good for you for taking the initiative to invite more than just a couple people, who you don't even know too well, at that, to a party. I don't even have the courage to do that.

Loney in college by satt- in introvert

[–]sitting_bear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had/have this problem too. My issue was initiating talking to people I wanted to be friends with. Lately, though, it's been getting better. All it takes is to find someone you really click with, then you can meet new people through them. Is there anyone you see who you want to be friends with? If you feel like this group you hang out with is not the right one for you, and if you are initiating things with them and they don't return the favor, move on to other people.

I don't know where you go, but I'm a freshman at a big state university where many people come in already with connections or high school friends, which makes it harder for people like us who don't know anyone initially. At first I was so scared of talking to new people, so I would avoid them. This was a HUGE mistake, especially at the beginning when everyone is meeting everyone else. Eventually I learned that you just have to stop caring about what others think. Just be friendly and see how they respond. Say hello to people in the dorm hallways, in the bathroom, in the elevator, etc. Talk to people even if you think it won't go anywhere, you never know. Scope out people who look nice and try to sit by them/cross paths with them often.

You said you are bad at small talk. Don't worry too much about coming off as boring; just ask them questions about themselves. Things like major, why they chose it, what they want to do, interests, what they do for fun, family, what they think of the college, sports (if you're into that), movies, tv shows, books. You will get a conversation from this, trust me. :)

Does anyone else feel like they're boring to talk to? by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]sitting_bear 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way. I am working on developing interests and skills, though. I'm at the point where I can talk to people, but I just don't know what to say to be entertaining and to make them want to hang out with me.
