Yes she does! /media/mediaFiles/sharedAlbum/ace-16.gif Lol!  Well, page 20 and my mind.  Truthfully, I feel really bad posting her pictures without her permission and I'm likely going to take them down sooner than later. The ones I've kept up are innocent enough, but I still feel like a jerk for it.

Not sure I'd consider dating any woman that is even so much as one year older. One year younger or around up to the same age exactly would be as old as I'm willing to go.

Denverdan I drunkenly signed up for Broncos season tickets in 2007 (was born in CO but didn't live there long)
Just got an email I'm up, obviously I still live in VA. Think I could make my money back selling the tickets? For further reference I am of the mind you do not get to pick your team. If you're born in Cincinnati you're a Bengals fan, sorry. |

I haven't watched football or even paid attention to it for YEARS. Not just GD stuff about the libtard shit, I was butthurt they kept making it more gay.
You can't hit the QB. We're moving up the kickoff point. You can't murder someone anymore. When I stopped watching was slightly earlier than the libtard stuff. I was against all the player safety honestly. Dude I want to watch million dollar peak athletes try to kill each other. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Walkure: Men generally say they don't understand women. In regards to things like this, I don't even understand my fellow men. Same, same... I don't have nearly anything in common with 99% of the guys I've ever been around. Especially on topics like this. And it's not that I'm an effeminate guy (as evidenced by my manly digging picture I posted way back in the thread ). We're just wired different, but it doesn't make you any quick friends with other guys. Personally I've always been okay with that though. Because why would you want to hang out with people that you have almost nothing in common with?I know that I definitely prefer the presence of women over men in every context, so if I was just looking for a friend then I'd probably be trying to befriend a woman. But then again it would be very hard for me to have a woman as just a friend, because if I liked her enough to want her as a friend then other feelings would follow along with it... Just no way around it. Originally Posted By Walkure: A minority, but not alone. And I'm glad to not be alone! Though I wish we could all find who we're supposed to be with. Now I'm going to go cry my eyes out while listing to "Better Now" by Post Malone.

Might never got a damn thing done You're not wrong, but I haven't figured out what I'd end up achieving by reaching out to Nicole through her Mom. I believe Nicole has moved on, but I don't really know... If she hasn't, I don't know what the effect of talking to her about any of my feelings would be on her. I do care about her feelings and wouldn't want to hurt her. It's not like I'd be reaching out to her to ask her on a date. Her kids are almost teenagers by this point and I have no idea if she's found another guy. By now she likely has and I'd hate to disturb any life she may have made for herself. I figure if she eventually became pissed off at me years ago for not getting in touch with her after plenty of signals and opportunities to do so, that making contact with her now would just piss her off more... Or she has the same buried feelings as I do and might be happy to hear from me at the very least. But the fact that she never reached out to me over the last 30 years kinda tells me to just let it go. I'm still considering it, but I'd really need to put a lot of thought into how I'd approach any message I might write out to her... And then who knows if her Mom would actually pass it on to her. It's just a very, very slim chance of anything good being the result of making contact. Of course I'm prone to overthinking these kinds of things, but this is a tough one. I know she loved me by the last time we saw each other when she was 10 or 11, and I know she still had to have feelings for me into her early teenage years. But it's been silence for a long time now... Except for her Mom asking if I was still available (half jokingly) 9 or 10 years ago right after her divorce. |

But it's been silence for a long time now... Except for her Mom asking if I was still available (half jokingly) 9 or 10 years ago right after her divorce. IMO, life's too short to not know. I know if I ever see Gena again I'd have to approach her even though I suspect she probably wouldn't be too happy to see me. But at least then I'd know for sure, and I could honestly say I tried. I think you should do the same. |

Not for nothing, but 556Cliff, my brother in relational dissatisfaction, you don't need it badly enough to do this.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By CastleBravo91: Originally Posted By 556Cliff: Originally Posted By iwouldntknow: Originally Posted By 556Cliff: Well I think that's safely the majority opinion for most that have read through all this. But I've made my peace with it before I ever got to this point... Really I kinda had to. I may or may not try to get some kind of closure over Nicole by going through her Mom with a message, but it might just be better to leave things as they are. Might never got a damn thing done You're not wrong, but I haven't figured out what I'd end up achieving by reaching out to Nicole through her Mom. I believe Nicole has moved on, but I don't really know... If she hasn't, I don't know what the effect of talking to her about any of my feelings would be on her. I do care about her feelings and wouldn't want to hurt her. It's not like I'd be reaching out to her to ask her on a date. Her kids are almost teenagers by this point and I have no idea if she's found another guy. By now she likely has and I'd hate to disturb any life she may have made for herself. I figure if she eventually became pissed off at me years ago for not getting in touch with her after plenty of signals and opportunities to do so, that making contact with her now would just piss her off more... Or she has the same buried feelings as I do and might be happy to hear from me at the very least. But the fact that she never reached out to me over the last 30 years kinda tells me to just let it go. I'm still considering it, but I'd really need to put a lot of thought into how I'd approach any message I might write out to her... And then who knows if her Mom would actually pass it on to her. It's just a very, very slim chance of anything good being the result of making contact. Of course I'm prone to overthinking these kinds of things, but this is a tough one.

I think you should do the same. And you know, if I ever crossed paths with Nicole while out shopping, or just out in public at some point (as long as she was by herself) she probably wouldn't recognize me, but I'd have to go talk to her. I don't know if I could get very deep in conversation, but I'd at least have to say "hi" and ask her how her life has been going. If I sent a message I could open up more and get deeper into my feelings about things. But it's kind of a lot coming out of nowhere. As I mentioned though, I'll figure it out.

I'll figure it out. Just do it 87% chance... I won't say which way that's leaning at the moment. I'm the only one who has to live with whatever decision I make and I can change my mind at any time about it as long as me and her are still both around for a few more years. |

Well, guess I'm not totally sure what happened, but it's like a switch got flipped: now she's putting way more effort into our communications, messages are way longer and more detailed, and she's telling me a little more stuff about herself. Did I pass a test or something? Feels like it.

Did I pass a test or something? Feels like it. Yeah probably. You can speak woman but you'll never be fluent, it's too difficult a native tongue to master. Maybe I was right about her non-response being a test. Waited like 4 days and told her "if you're not comfortable exchanging numbers right now, it's cool. Just thought it would be easier to communicate that way." Then she did the whole "I'm sorry, I was busy yada yada yada. Yeah, it feels a bit early for that." So I said "it's cool, it's not like we really know each other, so I understand. How about you let me know when a weekend works for you to meet up, until then let's just talk." "Sounds good!" Then boom, she opens right up. Feel like I did something right for once lol. I shall still contain my excitement until something substantial happens. But when women actually give me a chance they usually end up liking me. Even Gena went from "no way" to "hmmm, maybe we should" and her friends teasing her about me after getting some 1 on 1 time driving me to school. |

Yes, it is a stretch considering I can see the little green dot that shows when she's logged in, and she was logged in plenty over those few days.
