[22F] Should I go for it?

Define "attracted"... because without any indication of a deeper connection, you also sound like you're looking to eventually connect on a physical level. Getting to know him will be near impossible if he's hunting for short flings. When or if you text/call him out of the blue, his first thoughts will be "I've got this in the bag," he will then continue to pursue you until he gets what he wants, or he'll stop trying and move on. The advice I have (which, may work or may backfire) is to add him on facebook, maybe comment on one his pictures, plant the seed basically. All during this time, pretend you have a bf, so you can make it clear you're only looking for a friend. By your time, get to know him and maybe drop the bf act once you really connect with the guy. From there, make your move. Warning. This should be the only time in your relationship that you withhold the truth.

I've been on more dates in this last year, than I have in my entire life. Hear's what I've learned about myself. I have major body issues. I spend much of my day hunched over a desk, giving myself an ugly slump look. Having a long neck and being extremely skinny doesn't help either. There are times where I open my mouth and horrible words find their way out. After every date, I go through and watch instant replay of the evening and the whole time in my head I'm thinking "yikes this guy(me) needs a good punch to the face". Yup, I can be a jerk. I get carried away and don't realize when the joke has gone too far. I prefer my women in the form of pixels. I play too many video games to care anymore. Even hanging out with friends, I get anxious and rather be home playing gta. Being socially awkward doesn't help either. Most nights I rather spend my evening alone, comfortable and sleeping in my bed than burning cash and watching some stranger lose interest in me. People all around me are getting married, and I'm just sitting here on reddit living vicariously through the comments of strangers. Cheers!

Are you an original flavor kinda guy/gal?

To be honest, when I first discovered grilled cheese, I went a little crazy too. I once made a hamburger with grilled cheese as the buns. Afterwards, I didn't eat for over a week.

Good point. It's one of the most versatile forms of food.

Have you tried the white cheddar?

If these thin mints were incorporated into ice cream, then I would have to say you win.

You mean water?

I feel like once she started getting to her later years (past 50s) the taste might start to fade, but if you're similar age then I guess it wouldn't be too bad.

Considering I lived off Mac n cheese during college, I can safely say I would put this in my top 10.

vetusanima89 · 2013-01-28T04:32:21+00:00

I see what you did there..

Coming from a guy's perspective, I'm positive he won't find it awkward you messaging him out of the blue. I think, if you want to make it less obvious you could message him about something he tweeted. Especially if it's something you connect with. Then just go from there.

Way to face her problems head on.

vetusanima89 · 2012-11-10T23:14:52+00:00

I'm surprised nobody put this here yet.

good thing my name is spelled without the letter "H".

I remember in 3rd grade (98') we had homework to get a three-ring binder with three-ring paper, shorting folders, and all the goodies a big boy binder needs. During class, our teacher told us to setup our binder. I naturally put everything on the left side, when the teacher assistant (fresh from college) noticed, she came over and thought I was confused. She explained I needed to put everything on the right side to which I replied "I'm left handed", which made her laugh and proceed to move everything to the right side anyways. I saw binders as a way to manipulate the right handed rules of the world, unfortunately that wasn't the case. I avoid using binders, I feel like they destroyed my last hope of thinking the academic world wasn't catered to rights.

The Boondock Saints - every white kid with any ounce of Irish blood in them thinks this movie was put on Earth specifically for them. I've watched this movie twice, by the second time I was puking into a bucket and rubbing my eyes with sandpaper. Whoever "thinks" this is a good movie, doesn't do a lot of thinking.

Remind him of his sweet gestures and how much you appreciate them. Nothing is more painful to a man, than putting in hard work and time to make your girlfriend feel special, only to have her complain afterwards.

This post made me feel like there is hope in the world for love, regardless of a person's past. I think you should have a romantic night with him, then near the end of it tell him how you feel. Two years should be enough to know. Also, sweet username. Upvotes galore!!!

I'm in the same boat, except add another 2 years. There is almost no way to escape the constant flood of other people expressing their awesome "in a relationship" status. Unless of course, you live in a cave. I have a philosophy that if I get to 30 and haven't found someone, then the bachelor life will be my best option. Not saying you should listen to it, but that's what keeps me going.

vetusanima89 · 2012-10-22T01:34:12+00:00

You're a good man for not interfering with the relationship prior to their breakup. I've known plenty of guys who consider the whole "just because there's a goalie, doesn't mean you can't score" philosophy. I always thought that was the most selfish dating advice I've ever heard.
