Not many guys want a women who will bring them humiliation man. Get serious. Would you want a women who will bring you humiliation? No right?

You sound like a guy who would date your friend's ex. May i ask, how do you do it?
How do you face your friends when you're with her?
What would your friends think of you when you're dating an Ex from the crew?
It would depend on what kind of guy that ex-boyfriend is. Fair enough though. You bring up a good point though and i need to resolve these thoughts before entering into any new relationship.
"Leftover" is just a word. Chillax. I also called women "treasure" in the same breathe but nobody seemed to have taken notice.


no one likes to be humiliated, but i believe there are girls (to me) in life that are worth the humiliation. furthermore, if my crew were to insult me and attempt to humiliate me over it, you can guess where their friendship lies. heh

would i ever date my friend's ex's? my preference is no, but if i found her to be someone i want to get to know more and would want to date, i'd figure out a way to date her and keep peace with my friends.

as for your choice of words, i dont think i was trying to get all worked up over it. lately i've had a soompier or two who didnt like the tone of my post. but im being pretty chill about it. it might have come out bluntly, but it was just my opinion based on the way you talked about girls in the past few posts.

in addition, i'll take notice to your choice of the word 'treasure' as well, since you wanted to point out the double standard. leftover, garbage or treasure... i still disagree with the use of words that describe girls/women as possessions.

QUOTE
And watcher, i do treat women well... too well in fact. I suppose I had a moment of lapse and didn't "talk" about them with adequate respect. I understand the offence taken by others. Heck, it was blindboi who threw around the term "leftover" and although i agree with the context of his message, let me also agree with everyone that he had a tasteless choice of words. Basically, what blindboi said was what you said. You said you wouldn't date your friend's Ex right? Mind if i ask you why?


if the girl is someone i've thought about and decided was good for me, and worth all the effort, then i'd go for it. but there are many times when i'd meet someone i'm open minded too, but not very excited about. in such a case, i'd lack motivation, and any extra effort on my part would influence me not to try. and the extra effort of keeping peace between the friend and the girl i date is something i'd rather do without. (in most cases at least)

So I've talked to a few more people lately. Grew interest in someone, but it didn't workout. It wasn't my fault either. My friends told me not to try to get with her, but I was stubborn. The girl is really immature, and she's unsure of what she wants. I was eating lunch, and talking to my friends the other day. They pointed out something to me. They said, "I need to have confidence." Compared to how I was at 18, and how I am at 20 I feel I have gained confidence. Even though there are moments when I do things to where I do feel unconfident. Which brings me to my question. Does confidence come over time, and is there some way to improve confidence in someone?

Experience helps. The first time you ask a girl out on a date is going to be a lot more awkward than, say the 10th time you do it. After awhile, you can learn how to read girls to a certain extent and kind of get a handle of how they will act which helps you. But in the end, it will always be a bit nervous because you're putting yourself out there. But as long as you keep on mingling with girls and don't let anything bad happen to you weigh you down, it should get easier.

I need more power...
Girls end up with too much control over my brain allowing me to do stupid stuff. Any recommendations?

um..just say "no" sometimes?
I'm a girl by the way =P

my problem:
I think I'm stuck in a dating rut? My other friends are either in committed relationships (I just got out of one a few months ago) or dating around/hooking up like crazy. As for myself, whenever I'm single, I'm just single. A few random dates here, meeting new people there but no flings, no one-after-the-other hookups and I find it very hard to develop a real interest in anyone that quickly. Maybe I've been watching too much Sex And The City..or maybe I really am in a major rut o.O I wonder if it's normal because it doesn't seem like it is.

sealing the deal in terms of going on a date is easy as pie. being able to hold the girl's interest after the third or fourth date is extremely difficult. and yes, making it to the third or fourth date in no way assures you that the girl likes you enough get serious. it's not for them to blame, of course. shopping around and shopping long and hard (even before deciding you don't want it) is a normal process. put yourself out there and ask girls out on dates... the secret to this is that most half-decent girls will not turn you down outright, or will at least give you the benefit of a doubt. it's what you do on the dates and how you carry yourself from that point onward that makes or breaks the deal.

I think it's normal. Like I've never been in a relationship, but I know what want in a relationship, and what I need in one. I meet people, and dates are rare for me. Pretty much all of my friends are in relationships. I end up the 3rd wheel in most cases, and it bothers me. I'm not a bad guy, but I have this habit of meeting a lot of weird people. I wonder if it's normal if you're stuck in a dating rut for 3 years or so?

HAHAHAHHA

~~~~~~~~~
or probably because guy a is an bubble gum. but hey assholes need love too.

~~~~~~~~~
now to actually answer(or try to answer) ur dilemma:

if guy B has a girl, then Guy B's feelings about her shouldn't matter. he is now out of the equation.

Guy A needs to Man Up and let Girl know how he feels about her. because there is only two answers that he can get: Girl also likes Guy A, but wasn't sure he liked her back. Girl doesn't like Guy A romantically, but would still like to be friends.

3yrs is nothing. Life has ups and downs and they don't always last a day or two. The important thing is that when something comes along, you take that opportunity instead of letting it pass you. Dating is a funny thing- some people just get lucky, others work so hard at it- they work out, have a nice job, car, go to all the hot clubs, know what to say, have their friends set them up and they still have nothing.

You want my advice? Stay the f away from that and don't get involved.
And if you happen to be one of these characters, walk away.
