Do you live a cold and lonely life?

No, actually; today I went to my cousin's wedding reception with my non-silly girlfriend.

Why so serious? Everyone needs a little bit of silliness in their life.

hey relationship advice thread, is it normal to be jealous when your really close friend who has been single for a long time and who you almost had a thing with gets a new girlfriend and they are really super in love with each other? i don't want to break them up or anything, i am genuinely happy for him but i also find myself now unconsciously avoiding his facebook page and talking to him less because they are both in that early "oh god we are so smitten with each other" phase of relationships and for reasons not fully known to me, seeing that makes me feel sort of bitter and angry and neglected. i guess what i am really looking for is just some validation (hopefully) that i am not a crazy psycho jealous bitch and these are normal feelings that will pass soon. right now i feel like a pretty mean person.

That sounds pretty normal to me, tania. Sometimes even if you are only half interested or when you know that a relationship wouldn't work between you and another person there's still a subconscious association with the idea in the back of your head. Seeing that person being happy with someone else might bring up all sorts of things that are normally tucked away back there. If the reactions you're having seem unreasonable to you maybe it's only because you didn't expect to be having them?

Hey thread, if a girl is in Italy for two weeks, and you miss her a whole bunch, but the parameters of your relationship are really really bizarre and she isn't technically your girlfriend despite the fact that you've basically been a couple for the last two months, and knowing full well that she is probably already knee deep in Italian dong already, how long is it appropriate to wait before sending her an email to see how she's doing so as not to seem needy, since she's probably having a great time and not thinking about you nearly as much as you're thinking about her?

evilbobthebob · « **Reply #1658 on:** 26 Jul 2009, 09:50 »

*shrug* just send it. Write casual

If you write it the right way, you won't look needy, just interested in how her holiday is going. Of course, if she replies with "OMG I had an orgy with ten Italians!" you might want to reconsider the relationship.

NeverQuiteGoth · « **Reply #1659 on:** 26 Jul 2009, 14:10 »

I broke up with that one-date-a-month-and-a-half-ago girl with a text message. I hate myself now.

Tania two of my best friends have been in a relationship for quite a while now and I feel bad because while it's good when they're making each other happy I wish they wouldn't in front of my bitter, twisted, and lonely eyes.

Hey relationship thread I just saw the most awesome person in the world again. I screwed up our thing almost two years ago but I haven't met anyone that I respect and care about anywhere near as much as her. I'd get on well with her new boyfriend, apparently. I really want to forget about her because I don't want to upset or annoy her or anything, but I can't seem to manage it.

ViolentDove · « **Reply #1662 on:** 26 Jul 2009, 16:03 »

So I met a girl who seemed to be into me, and we were all getting on swell, then my housemate was like "oh, dude do not get involved with her she is a total wackjob."

My housemate knows her and everything, so I took her word for it but now I kinda regret it and feel a bit like I should've maybe found out for myself. Also how do I stop attracting crazy people? Should I change my deodorant?

Nick, maybe you should stop using this:

ViolentDove · « **Reply #1664 on:** 27 Jul 2009, 05:40 »

That'd probably explain it?

Also small update - I asked the girl out today anyway after being all regretful for not doing so on the night. I mean I love my housemate like a sister and appreciate her looking out for me, but I'd still like to make my own terrible decisions.

Also also a cute girl from my class drove me home this evening and then wolf whistled at me while I was crossing the road. I think this might be A Hint.

carve his name into your arm and stick pictures of it under his door; this will show him just how much he means to you.

leave your used tampons in his bed, he'll get turned on by the pheromones like jeph said.

She'll get over it. From the sounds of it, nothing was too serious anyways. Now that your relationship with her is over... your "happiness" shouldn't be reflective of her feelings, at all.

Make your own terrible decisions. It's hard for me to believe my friends that are girls when they are talking smack about another girl. It seems to be close to all they can do, sometimes. However, sometimes they are very right.

However, alot of things are circumstantial.

Also here's a good one that usually got me past that weird awkward feeling when i was in highschool. I'd go out to eat or to a movie with a girl. When the time was appropriate and they were paying enough attention to me, put my hand out between her and I with my palm up. Then I'd look at them till I got eye contact. Then look at my hand. Then look back at their face. I know it sounds wierd or strange. But they either would not grab my hand or they would. Most times they would.

Are you sure it wasn't because they were terrified?

Thomas Edison · « **Reply #1671 on:** 28 Jul 2009, 06:44 »

Masterbainter · « **Reply #1673 on:** 28 Jul 2009, 08:47 »

But that is almost how you should do it. Just a tiny bit less creepy. Most girls find it really cute.

Thanks,

Im not really worried about guys being interested in me that way.. im the girl with the "good personality and really hot friends." if you know what I mean. I attract girls much more then men, even as friends.

Im more worried about sending off messages of being interested. I don't want to make things uncomfortable, which happens when guys try to explain they aren't into me, even though i don't feel like i ever did anything to suggest i liked them. It puts me in a bad mood, because its like an unasked for insult. most of the time i was just being friendly or polite. or for some reason guys start to avoid me when i try and befriend them, possibly cos they think im into them and they dont want the hassle?

After reading this sentence again this time I think I may have realized a fundamental flaw. The addition of the 'right now' lets a guy think maybe maybe later. I know I have semi-consciously 'held out for the right time' after hearing that line. So, do not say 'right now'. From personal and anecdotal experience I would conclude that it will only hurt things.

If a guy tells you he isn't looking to get with you, then just respond, "neither was I but I think you're still kewl to hang with."

You may find alot of guys aren't really looking for a just a "close" friendship with a girl that doesn't involve anything more than... "like you know, talking and stuff". There are some guys that may. However, unless you are into the same things as these guys are, then you probably don't appeal to their sense of she could be a friend.

Remember, not all, but very many males are competitive drivin and have... a male brain. Unless you have the mindset of a guy, and share their hobbies and interests, don't expect to be able to make many "just friends" with them.

You will find a friend or two among the masses though, and as with myself most friendships just evolve from being myself and people either like it or don't.

Eviko · « **Reply #1692 on:** 05 Aug 2009, 02:45 »

thanks for that, it was helpful.
i know that guy friends can be awesome, i had a pretty close one a few years back.
tragically he died suddenly and i haven't been able to fill that void since.

I'll try to be a bit more clear about what my expectations are, when trying to make friends.

Masterbainter · « **Reply #1693 on:** 05 Aug 2009, 04:23 »

Hope you come across someone you can be close to in that way again!

TheFuriousWombat · « **Reply #1694 on:** 07 Aug 2009, 06:02 »

I think it's important to be aware of the fact that it's likely many guy friends you might have would probably want to sleep with you given the chance but aren't romantically interested and are completely cool with just being friends. You can't really avoid or prevent the first thing but it's also not a big deal and in 99.9% of cases not make any difference in the friendship itself.

Yes, this is a fantastic idea, and will probably result in slow-motion airport kissing. Aerosmith may appear in the luggage check.

dear relationship thread,

i just got home from the weirdest non-date ever. so there's this new boy and he is incredibly awesome and super smart but also a huge flirt so i assumed that he could maybe be a better partner for an open relationship cause he is more confident and stuff and would be more comfortable with it overall. except today we started discussing it and he just went on and on about how he just doesn't see the point of it at all and why would you even say you're in a relationship with someone if you aren't monogamous, why not just call it friends with benefits? it felt more like him going off on a philosophical tangent than trying to attack me and my lifestyle choices, but i felt mildly annoyed by this and also surprised cause um this guy does NOT seem commitment minded at ALL and has only been in one serious relationship ever and it only lasted 9 months anyway. well anyway. i think he realized that he was kinda being a dick and apologized to me and then started going on about how difficult work has been for him lately. now, it was kind of hard to take him seriously because his job basically consists of flirting with pretty ladies all day long. but i listened to him anyway and even managed to sound sympathetic. he wasn't as affectionate or talkative as he was last time we hung out but i think he appreciated having me around anyway. i suggested that we go somewhere else after his shift is over but he was like "oh i'm tired, i'd just want to go straight home" and we ended up not making any specific plans to hang out but he gave me this strangely intimate hug and kissed my neck (!!) and then he was all like "i'll see you later". aslksfksdgjksf. now, normally i would just take the "see you later" as a sign that he is not interested. but he seemed interested, just conflicted about the fact that i have a boyfriend and not wanting to get into anything with someone he barely knows.

what do i do now?
