I just read this bear of a last two pages of the thread here. Sorry to hear that you're going through this. Two things contribute here: the actual situation (which sucks) and then on top of it, you may be overanalyzing this and playing mindgames with yourself.

Banana provides the voice of reason here. Listen to her.

I think this is a a fairly effective way to blow off steam. It made me feel better, at least.

You provide good advice, Bananarama. But I don't need any inkblots, I have my path slides. 😎

Yay! A steamless yaah is a happy yaah!

Apparently you do see interesting objects in path slides....

Okay, now it's time for all the girls to give yaah hugs and make him all happy!

*hugs* for yaah!

Story of my life. I overanalyze everything. Can't help it. I try, but it always comes back to it in the end.

And btw, I am not totally steamed because if it is meant to happen it will happen, but I am a bit annoyed by the whole thing because we click so much and I feel like her life has changed so much in the last week that it may be permanently altered. She even said so herself, so that is not just me overanalyzing. The other problem is that we are obviously not close enough to say, "I will wait for you" or stuff like that because we aren't even dating yet, so that seems a bit clingy and rushing things. So although we both seem to know we like each other it's still at that awkward phase where you can't commit to anything without risking it becoming more awkward.
 
I'm not gonna hug you yaah, but I'll buy you a beer or two next time we're at the bar.

You are not a huggy person? Bah!

I hug non-huggy people just to piss them off. :laugh:

Guess it kind of depends on the person. I bet I would hug you though. I just don't like hugging people who aren't really into it.

I suppose I must be a non-huggy person. I'm Asian after all. 😀
To compensate, I remember every single one of my hugs.

Damn. Should have caught you off guard and hugged you. 😀

You would have caught me very off guard. And I would have run screaming into the night. 😛

Damn. Now you are making me smile!

Come back here you! You aren't getting away without a hug! :laugh:

I mostly just hug people I know when I greet them after not seeing them for a long time. Or, people who are already friends that I am seeing in person for the first time. deschutes would get a hug from me, too. I am not stingy with hugs. But, it's not like I hug random people or slight acquaintences or anything.

Are Asians generally non-huggy? 😕 I have not noticed this.

I am pretty huggy I guess. As long as it is somebody I know well. I don't like it when people I barely know give me a hug.

I have not noticed this either. I don't see why Asians would be particularly non-huggy.

Perhaps it depends on where exactly one has grown up.

Thank you! That is exactly it.

I was referring to the stereotype of Asians being quiet and passive and reserved and all those things. But perhaps the rest of you are all too young to remember 😉

Girls hug girls alot. Other than that, I don't see a ton of hugging from anyone, Asian or otherwise. My mom will have open house in December and people are all huggy. It's sort of an "old friends" thing here too.
 
One time in high school I came up behind a friend who was on the computer, and I put my finger on his shoulder and I said "My dick is on your shoulder, dude." And he turns his head and sees my finger and is like, "**** off." Then I quietly take my unit out and set it on his shoulder and I say "My dick is on your shoulder, dude." And he doesn't turn his head this time, he's like "Whatever." Then I wiggled both my hands in his superior peripheral vision, and he turned his head and bumped his nose into my weiner. What does this mean?

It means your unit is at the height of his shoulder when he is sitting. Also, he gave you a nose job.

you gotta coin a term for this move. i mean the term "smurfing" comes to mind but what you did (or what he did to himself by turning his head and bumping his nose into your johnson) really doesn't fit the term.

Dude. Did you sleep 3 hours, or what?

I'm playing vampire.
 
I have opinions to share but have to get to the hospital. Until then, happy Black Monday, all!
 
I was driving home from work and saw a group of people wearing short white coats. I couldn't stop thinking that wearing a short white coat really is some kind of scarlet letter. I look at these guys and couldn't stop feeling sorry for them. The short white coat really is a demeaning and self-unpromoting article of clothing. That is all.

OK - want to hear my story and why I have such ****ing bad luck with relationships?
Click to expand...

I wish I'd had time to respond to this rant this morning, when it was still fresh in my mind. Now all I can do is give a few comments.

I'm getting bad vibes from this girl. It sounds to me like she has been coming up with excuse after excuse to avoid seeing you. If she liked you badly enough, she would see you. Period. Especially in the early stages of a romance, she would put you above seeing her "girlfriends". Sad as it is, girlfriends frequently get shoved aside when there is a new man in the picture.

Now why would she be avoiding you, when it seems as if she likes you well enough? I'm guessing that she does in fact like you, at least enough to keep talking to you, but subconsciously she knows it's not going to work--because of her schedule, the distance between you, or maybe things aren't clicking as well with her as they are with you. So instead of coming out and saying this, she is dropping hint after hint, subconsciously hoping that YOU will be the one to call things off, or to at least slow things down until she has more personal time.

Hints she is dropping: "I'm not good enough for you". "I'm too busy to like you right now". "I left my phone in the car." (That latter one is complete crap: if she wanted you to be there, she would have called you again when you didn't show up.)

Honey chile, you need to protect yourself here and take a few steps back. You are just asking to have your heart broken by this girl. It's dangerous to invest more into a relationship than the other person, and you might be doing just that. Give her time, and see if she comes to you. If she doesn't, you have your answer.
 
See Stormjen that is exactly what I am thinking. I have now left the ball in her court. I wrote her a nice long email half apologizing for not showing up and telling her that I really like her so far and am proud of her for her new job and success, etc. Nothing clingy, just nice. And so if she writes back to me, she writes back to me. I hope she does but like you said, my theory over the past week (despite her strenuous denials) is that she is trying to find excuses to not see me because she doesn't want to get herself into a relationship right now.

I think the most telling reason was that it was practically like pulling teeth the past week to email her or call and ask if she was coming out here and when, and when she finally left the message she sounded very distant and said only, "the plan is to meet at the bar after dinner but I don't know where we're having dinner yet." That was it. No "I hope to see you there" or "call me if your plans change" or anything. And she left the bar and started driving home without calling me to find out why I hadn't shown up.

Anyway, I may be making progress with hot lab girl anyway. We went on a date to the vending machines today. 😍 I don't think anything is going to happen here but the other lab girl (who is engaged) says she is going to try to find me a nice non-doctor. I want a non doctor.
 
p.s. Stormjen if she doesn't like me and this is the reason she is doing a crappy job of disguising that. All she talks about is how much she likes me and I don't have to worry about that.

Oh, I did most of it. But I have to go find some old articles like I said about people with multiple primary malignancies. There isn't a lot of literature on the subject.

I came up with a few more opinions on this chick after I posted my initial response. I am now thinking that she is one night stand material. Not that I am uber conservative or anything, but as I understand it that is not what you are looking for.

Yeah well I think I missed my chance with that too. Perhaps that was what she was looking for by telling me she was going to the bar, but I dunno. But yeah, not what I am looking for.

It's early!

You're not? Too early? What kind of man are you? 😀
 
You're a gentleman yaah, nothing wrong with that. I never understood the one night stand thing either; well, I understood it but personally found it a little too sleazy to ever do myself.

Please keep us updated about your lady friends--until one of them gets serious, then keep it to yourself. 🙂

I think you just added 1 more thing to your list of "things I want in a woman."

Does it strike anyone else that laundry lists like that just lead you to screen out people that you would otherwise get along very well with?

I didn't say I would exclude anyone I had a one night stand with - but the thing of it is I am not looking to have a one night stand just for the purpose of doing that.

I sound picky but I am not that picky. All I want is someone I am attracted to who I enjoy spending time with and enjoys spending time with me. Should that be so hard?

By definition, a one night stand is somone you do not date afterwards. If you continue to see the person, they cease to be a one night stand and are simply known as "that girl that gave it up on the first date."
