The spite, hate, rage, apathy and mild irritation thread...

[Ancient Astronaught]

I swear, after this I think I will finally be done with anything and everything dealing with that state.

Until my folks kick over.

Here's to hoping!!!!!

[morange]

And then they'll be like, OH THERE YOU ARE, WELCOME BACK

[Disarm D'arcy]

My brain realized that I have a week left of actual classes this semester. And I'll never cross path with this crush ever again.

I don't know what to do. My brain can't process the situation and resolve it in a rational way. I'm about clueless when it comes to human relations anyway. Right now, it's getting in the way of things that could turn out to be cool and enjoyable. And I resent myself for that.

[D.o.S.]

All three of them at once. It's the only way to be sure.

[UglyCasanova]

We all know who you really want, DeeDee. Grrrrr.

[Disarm D'arcy]

Oh, hubby, I've been meaning to talk to you about this. It's tech heaven and French quality.

But, as much as I like you, I know our relationship is a lie. You are Seppukusexual and everybody knows.

[UglyCasanova]

this.

What a time to be alive!

But, as much as I like you, I know our relationship is a lie. You are Seppukusexual and everybody knows.

Alas, 'tis true, 'tis true. My uku's are my babies. MAH BABIES I TELL YE!

[UglyCasanova]

Fuck. I thought I was handing in the first draft of an essay next week. Turns out it said FINAL draft. It's due the day before an exam in another course.



See you in a week! (not really. I'll probably still be here like 6 hours a day)

My brain realized that I have a week left of actual classes this semester.

After next Friday, I won't have a single class in common with this girl. I've "known" her since our second year of college. And in spite of spending all this time thinking that she was cute and smart, and her apparently liking my stupid jokes, I haven't made a single move. It's probable that we will never see each other again after that.

But, there's also this cute Italian foreign exchange student. We haven't talked much, but there's something about his eyes. And again, it's probable that we will never cross path again after the end of this week.

And there's also this Mexican foreign exchange girl that has been giving me the sex eyes since September... But however nice and pretty she is, I don't feel attracted to her and I've been carefully avoiding each and any of her allusions or invitations... I've tried telling her that I wasn't into meaningless casual sex, but I'm afraid that might be disrespectful to some extent. But she's nice, and I'd still like us to be university accointances to each other.

I don't know what to do. My brain can't process the situation and resolve it in a rational way. I'm about clueless when it comes to human relations anyway. Right now, it's getting in the way of things that could turn out to be cool and enjoyable. And I resent myself for that.

ah, d'arcy, you poor twisted soul. never resent yourself.
maybe your brain is just struggling to resolve conflicting software/hardware issues, if you know what i mean?
and sometimes we confuse 'not wanting to listen' with 'not being able to hear'?

are you sure you are not applying the same 'must come out of this with something' urge here that you used to get when standing at the checkout with your parents as a kid and staring at all the sweets, after a shopping trip that didn't involve anything being bought for you?

the urge never goes away. it's part of the human condition. i don't know you (or anyone) well enough to say if it applies or not, you can only judge yourself. i'm just throwing that into the model to see if it might fit somewhere. leaving any long-term situation can be an emotional thing, especially one in which you have invested a lot of yourself (thoughts, feelings). the prospect can pressurise your thinking. especially if you are a young man in spring surrounded by beautiful women.

am playing devil's advocate here, as no one here has tried to do so yet. but if you have come all this way, in the company of these obviously-interested women, and nothing has progressed, maybe that's not to be written off too quickly as shyness, or timing-never-right, or whatever? maybe there's something in that.
maybe the woman that is perfect for you right now is the one you will meet this summer, on the beach, skiing, working in a bar, whatever you do. but if you choose to involve yourself with random people now, just because they are there and you are feeling nostalgic, fearful of change, souvenir-hungry, whatever, you could be cheating yourself (and them, if they fall for you and you are just playing) by then not being in the right place and at the right time when someone you really should be with appears in your life.
that might be something to consider carefully on a long moonlit walk around the park tonight.

i have a few years head-start on you so can too easily look at this with a cool head, which definitely wasn't the case when i was in my twenties, etc. but i felt a 'have been there' moment when i read your message, so thought it worth a reply since you asked for ideas.

let your instincts be your guide, d'arcy. et bonnes vacances.

Don't overthink things. If you like someone just ask them out. The worst thing that can happen is they say no. And if they do, don't let that affect you. There's no reason for it to. And if you want, you can still be friends, so long as they see that you're cool with it.

I went through a phase a little while ago where I forgot about things like that and let a couple girls mess me up a lot. After a year of being a mess I finally remembered at some point last year how easy and uncomplicated it all has to be. Be honest and straightforward. Put your feelings first - if the other person syncs up with them that's great, if not it's not a big deal.

The more you do it the easier it gets, and the less you will worry about it.

So my fiance and I were shopping at a Walmart a few weeks ago when she hurt herself and fell on her bad knee. We talked to the insurance people and told them we had made an appointment to make sure her knee was fine, and they told us to pay for it and they would reimburse us. Well just found out today that they're refusing to pay any of it because they weren't at fault.
