View Full Version : Girls are the downfall of society
Frumpus

Hmm, never been on these forums before, but this thread intrigued me.
Guys think girls are too complicated; girls think guys are too dumb/simple-minded (or so I've heard.) I think women are . . . well, they're a mystery, and that's probably what's most attractive and elusive about them. If girls were made the same as guys, there would be very little left to "figure out", hence, not much challenge. "The Game" is played again and again all over the world because it's a challenge.
People want what they can't have, and they abhor what they cannot escape.
Proof: Has someone ever had a crush on you who you didn't really "like" at the time? What about when they finally lost interest in you and you saw them with someone new for the first time? Did you have just the slightest tug/desire/want for them to like YOU again? It's because their affections were no longer yours (the "fight for control" thing).
(Spunk, it certainly sounds like this guy (both, actually) didn't know what he was missing until it was gone, then when the relationship returned, it happened again. Don't be his doormat; sometimes the hardest thing about love is letting go. If he can't make up his mind that you are "worth his effort", he's not worth yours. It may be hard, but I suggest telling him upfront how what he's doing makes you feel, and that you need a decision. At least then you'll know either way.)

Hey Spunkbubble http://www.plauder-smilies.de/happy/xyxwave.gif
It's been a long time since I checked in here.
But believe it's not because I've forgotten about you.
Let me know how things are going, my dear.
Frumpus speaks good words.
Words from someone who seems to have been there.
Well said...welcome to our little forum.
And this thread should never die!!!
It's probably the most important non-technical related thread here.
There are bits and pieces of individual's hearts, minds, and souls here...
written with emotion, honesty, and care.
And with an occasional mix of humor for good measure...:):up:

(Boy, so many first time posters here. Thanx for the welcome, Papa. I actually decided to read all 753 posts before adding, so I feel like I pretty much know you all. I guess I'll share my thoughts and spill my guts; hope it will be of some use :)
Hurt people HURT people. Two years ago I married a woman who I REALLY should have spent more time getting to know first. She had "baggage" (well, I had my share too for that matter!) from her wild past and dysfunctional childhood which was swept-under-the-rug and never really dealt with. She found a "new life" and put on a nice smile, but the old ways and old hurts and were only dormant, not healed. She had temporarily escaped the pain of resolving them. (I paid for that later.) Unlike her, I had a relatively nurturing upbringing and took for granted that because we had a tremendous amount in common, we'd be a good fit.
If you're just looking for a fuck, perhaps you won't care about reading this stuff (hmm, don't we have enough STD's already?! Plus, from viewing all these posts about getting burned, I'd say emotional scarring is even more damaging!). However, if you're looking for a relationship, make sure you check out each others' past hurts/habits/mindsets. DON'T OVERLOOK this if you plan to be "real" and vulnerable and intimate with each other. The "in-love" or "honeymoon" period (where you show your "best side" to your partner and hide your own shortcomings) will eventually fade. Fact. That's when I found out that my "former wife" had an unnatural resistance to opening up/trusting. At some point the personal facades/defense mechanisms HAVE to come down, else intimacy just won't grow any further, and the relationship will stagnate.
We got married, though I don't believe her heart was in her vows. Within two months she wanted out and seperated us (yeah, that's fast even for Hollywood!) That will be two years ago this July. Tomorrow or Monday (May 5 or 6th) is when [her] divorce becomes legal. I'd forgotten how sharp this kind of pain can be.
You can't have intimacy without vulnerability, and you can't be vulnerable while trying to protect yourself from pain/danger all the time.
Take it from someone who is still reeling from two years of hell and anguish: hurt people HURT people. I tried to help her through it, (maybe I even pushed her too much to seek help) but I think she was just too scared of opening old wounds. It seems her way of dealing with conflict in life was to escape it. No, I don't hate her - though I'm angry at her for hurting and scarring me. Paying back pain for pain doesn't erase the pain - at least not in the long run. I hope she finds healing - sooner rather than later! Would I get back together with her? No, not in her present state. There'd have to be alot of healing for both of us seperately before that would ever be a possibility. Spare yourself the pain and make wise choices.
(I know this next part is "old" news now, but I just read it last night:)

Yeah, I TOTALLY know what that feels like! Some things DON'T change from generation to generation. Pain, joy, anger, longing - these emotions are as strong today as they were yesteryear, as they will be tomorrow. This is grieving; it sometimes takes a long time.

~ Missy
I've got to agree with Missy. Man, do I ever feel old and tired when I see young people in high school with all their energy. I think, "No way. I couldn't have been that exuberant, that energetic, that, er. . "spunky" ;) I've always been a "thinker"; my mind is always chugging away, thinking, analyzing, etc. Now more than ever I'm alot more reflective about life. Teens are being robbed of their youth. What our current society has done to relationships and sexuality is horrendous. Spunk? The fact that you (and billions of other young women) were already worried about "your body" in your early teens is a testament to this fact. This is just wrong; looks have been inflated way beyond their value.
Geez, I sure wish the emphasis would be on teaching kids emotional and social maturity. Moreover, I wish physical beauty reflected people's inside status! Want to make a billion bucks? Create a device (like X-Ray glasses?) that will do that at a glance! (Hmm, is the movie, Shallow Hal, anything like this? I haven't seen it.) My wife was - still is - a knockout! But for all her beauty, if her "date-ability" showed on her outside, she would be scabbed and scarred and armoured and ugly. She has caused me more anguish than any other human I've encountered in my 27 years.
P.S. Very sorry to ramble; (just catching-up after 750 posts!). . . just wanting to spare others some heartache.
P.P.S. BTW, Spunk, I know it's excruciating to be told to "let go" of someone you are still "tied to" - believe me; don't expect an easy road, but it sounds like if the best thing to do is to let him go. If he's too ignorant to care or know, then he's not mature enough for you.

Welcome to the thread, Frumpus...
I do agree that the whole "body issue" has become beyond ridiculous. I have had serious problems with food & eating since I was fourteen, and seriously low self esteem since I was twelve. Now I'm seventeen and although some things have gotten better, a lot has gotten worse. "I believe beauty magazines promote low self esteem..."

I'm still a fool, I haven't let go of him... I was only fifteen but damnit, those feelings still have died - or even lessened... They just hibernate, then come out to destroy everything. In all honesty, I still love him.

Looks like you've found something,
you'll have to learn how to live with.
I've got demons and devils in my life too.
I've learned that they'll always be there.
I just found a way to live with them,
and not let them control me.
It's a battle sometimes...their voices are loud and clear at times.
Sitting on my shoulder whispering in my ear, they say...
"Follow me...be sad, be lonesome, be poor, be down,
be ugly, be without...
Follow me into despair.
It's ok...you'll be alright."
Then I look in the mirror...and see how stupid I look,
with my head down, and a frown on my face.
"Be gone" I say.
"I'm more than that"
"I'm better than that"
"I am somebody"
"I am important"
"I have a life"
"I have freinds"
"I have no need for your lies"
And I'm on my way to tomorrow...

Wow. I just read this whole forum. I feel like there are bees living in my head (or maybe like I'm lost in a Tibetan Eye Exercise). Lots of good thinking here. After 25 years of marriage I've come to the conclusion that the basic difference between men and women is that men marry women thinking they'll never change, and they do. Women marry men thinking that they'll change, and they don't. Most of you guys are still doing the "mating dance" and as uncomfortable as it can be at times, enjoy it, it will be the source of many fond memories later in life. As far as figuring out what makes each other tick, best of luck. The hardest part of relationships is getting the other person to appreciate the things in you that you know are worthy of appreciation. A person much smarter than I once said, "Before one can say 'I love you', one must first know how to say the 'I'.

I've read the forum, too. However, life experience is the best teacher, albeit the least forgiving. If I were 18 again, I would duke out my body, dress nice, be nice to the women, relatives and my boss, and a mild asshole to everyone else. It's the only thing that works consistently.:cool:
But now that I am divorced and paying half of my net income to child support, I don't have time to "play." There's another side to women you don't want to visit, gentlemen... greedy, selfish, cold as ice... and no, men can't get that way to the extreme that women can.:mad:
Make money, stay out of debt, stay healthy, and fuck protected. Then watch out for some nice girl who "says" she wants to tame you and take you home for good. Leave that one on the curb!:igor:
Unsolicited advice from a veteran of love and loss... Now then, I'm late for work... another check is due to my ex for her new Suburban.
I knoew this thread still lived. Good to see you still here Papadoc and spunk :). yes it was romantic Bilbo.
Also I reccomend reading some of this thread listening to Soot and Stars by the Smashing Pumpkins very emotional.

So you had a bad experience. Yeah, OK, I'm not belittling how traumatic it was, but if you're going to have the attitude, "leave her on the curb", who knows what you're going to miss out on?
that's what i've learnt at seventeen...

Well talk to her and ask her to come back, tell her how you feel and if she doesn't want to come back ever. sod her. Move on. If she still wants to be with you and just needs to spend this time over there then give her a chance maybe it's just one of those things she has to do.

TWiSTeD SHaZaM ... hi .. :) ... I had stopped posting here but do keep popping in once a while just to catch up on spunks news .. :) .. yet after reading your post ... I just felt that I would tell you this.
Go to ALASKA.
wherever that frozen land might hold that girl ... go to her and look at her properly. See the person that she is and then only can you decide on what you can and want to do.
The girl is pregnant with child. Living in her foster home. Thinking about her future. GOD wouldn't you be confuse?
if you find that she is the person that you want to live forever with .. :| though pain and suffering ... through poverty and hardship .. upon death and more ... you will know what you need to do.
yet all in all .. it is a matter of responsibility ...
with the SPIDERMAN motto ... 'with great power, come great responsibility' ...
2 months plus is more than sufficient for a cool down period ... so get it nailed down. Don't drag.
I sincerely hope that you will find the answer that you seek, and do what is best for all three of you.
may light shine on you always.

Well...I haven't hit the alcohol, it's food I abuse. It's comforting but somewhat disturbing to know that anyone else has been through what I've been experiencing for the last year and a half.
The only advice I have for you is, if you love this girl - then go to her. Never leave yourself to wonder, "If only I had gone..."

Initially I just popped into this forum to comment on the clever little monkeys who beat copyright protection with a felt tip pens. But the title of this thread is begging for a post. So without reading the 20 pages I'm behind, I'd like to try wedging my two cents in.
If you want to know the secret to picking up women, it's simple: take a shower, wear a clean shirt, and ask a girl about her life. That's it. You don't have to drive a Ferrari, you don't have to have forty inch pythons, Armani suits, or Montalbanesque accents. Everyone thinks relationships are impossible now because we've all been brainwashed into social retards. Too many movies, too much Cosmopolitain, too many talk shows and frappacinos and diet plans and Kevin Costner movies. Eventually everyone feels so shitty about themselves that the only comfotable mode of communication is behind the sheild of anonymity that is the internet. Sure, women can be impossible to understand, I even question if other women really understand women, but if you just talk to a girl, she tells you everything you need to know. (And ladies we need your help, please be honest with us. Men are stupid, stupid creatures that do not understand subtlttty... let alone how to properly spell it).
Perhaps it's because I'm rambling, more likely it's because I have work tomorrow, but I'll have to hold off the next several parts of my rant until I have sleep.

untill a few days ago, i never would have beleived that MrDomino was actually right, but he would seem to have been, and it would seem that dressing that nice isn't all that important eithier...
5mo ago when i joined this forum i would have agreed in a second that girls where evil, wreckers of life on earth, and just generally the bad side of humanity.actually, my first post was in this thread, on that point But i've come to realize that was just because i was hurt by one person, it seems somehow vaugely wrong to judge roughly half the human race based on my expereinces with a single girl. And really, it would seem they're just as desperate as we are, seriously, i was hanging out at a local bar, drinking to my sorrows (ok, drinking gingerale, but what does it matter?), and i got talking to the girl beside me (about my age), also drinking to her problems, and we got to talking, and then we got to really talking, and then we got to makeing a date to go out next tuesday... it's not really impossible. And trust me, it has nothing to do with being stylish, i was wearing a hawian shirt over a pair of scrubs... and i'm a real shy geeky person.
But none the less, most of us seem to have condemned girls to be evil based on but a few experiences, yeah, life does suck sometimes, yeah, sometimes lifes unfair, hell, most of the time life's unfair, and no, love isn't just... but untill someone can find a better reality, i'll take my chances, and keep my eyes open.
And if you really have had your life destroyed by some girl, then look at it and say "well, it can't get worse"... don't go into a relationship expecting to get hurt but hoping it'll work out, as great a strategy as that may be for dealing with not being hurt when it's over, thats exactly what it is, a strategy for when it's over, go into it hoping for the world, and expecting noless...
The world is a big place, much of it won't work, but if even a portion of it does work, then it's all good, you can't regect the entire concept of girls and love on the basis of a single experience, it's all broken when you meet that one perfect person, much the same way gravity is broken the moment you drop something and it falls up. There really are lots of fish in the sea, as bad as it sounds, its true.
But being hurt is good, it'd be a worying concept if anyone really did just brush themselves off and get back in there after ending a meaningful relationship, feeling hurt is away to deal with all the leftover pain... but eventually it's time to stop feeling bad and get back up, if you lay in the dirt for too long your tears will turn it to mud, makeing for even worse problems.
So yesterday i got back up, after laying in the ground for 5mo, and i see that the world really isn't as bad as i remembered it.

Spiffed... i have one thing to say... YOU'RE RIGHT!
(Yes I'm new to the boards people :p, hiya by the way!)
But you know what, so is everyone else. Girls aren't the downfall of society, the source of the problem are all of the jerks who think that women are just there for sex, more sex, and erm... sex. Those who mistreat women, beat them, and just use them are the source of the problems. Yeah, they look cute, yeah they seem nice for the first three weeks, but you know what girls (usually when they are younger, and even in their older years) are more worried over looks than personality half the time. It takes time for them to learn, but it is the fact that they don't realize that the jerks are only there for a one minute thing that causes pain and suffering for them. They fall in love with the cotton candy, and think that everything else is just that sweet.
I went to an all boys high school (so yeah, I wasn't getting any "action" anyway), and turned the drinking age not to long ago. But through out my life, I have dated more women older than me (usually in the mid to late twenties) because I was mature enough to understand that there's more to women than just the want for sex, etc. And they were old enough to have gone through the jerk offs to actually realize that they were not what they were looking for. It's not a solution (I'm not advocating that every guy should go out and begin hunting for a 30 year old... the other problem with dating someone older is that they think that you're too young.)
In actuality, no one is going to change how most young women think and how the jerk off men act. I've figured it's all about something that I heard in the movie Driven (which was a pretty good movie). It's not about whether you fall down, it's all about how fast you get up. That's how the gentlemen, and good guys have to deal with women. There may be a great girl who you like, but falls for the jerks, you know what, leave her and move on (yeah I know it's hard, TRUST ME). You just have to find another, because if the first one that you wanted was really the one, she would have noticed you or given you the time of day that you wanted.
ps. Titus said it best (the fox five show): "Son, you don't go straight for the 10, you find a 6 and drink until she is an 8".

Girls aren't the downfall of society, the source of the problem are all of the jerks who think that women are just there for sex, more sex, and erm... sex...
bang on, men are the cause of women being the downfall of society
...but you know what girls (usually when they are younger, and even in their older years) are more worried over looks than personality half the time...
Worried over their own looks or the looks of their perspective date?
If you mean their own looks then isn't this yet again, somewhat the fault of the jerks of the world? Isn't that who they're worried about how they look to? (assuming they aren't thinking of them as jerks at the time)
It takes time for them to learn, but it is the fact that they don't realize that the jerks are only there for a one minute thing that causes pain and suffering for them.
Isn't that exactly the same problem that damn near everyone who's contributed to this thread is having? They've been hurt by one of the "jerks" (male or female) of the world and they came here to come and think it out, or just bitch at the world? Feeling hurt and afraid seems to be the #1 cause of people not asking someone out, the fear of being hurt imediatley by rejecrtion, or 10yrs down the road, being hurt after they've given their everything and receive nothing back.
...because I was mature enough to understand that there's more to women than just the want for sex...
Based on the results of various statistical ventures here (damnit, the polls been archived, ahwell), we've managed to determine that the vast majority of us are geeks anyway, we're far from the sort who're indanger of being picked up "for just sex". Even so, i hardly think that we needed to be reminded that sex isn't the only thing on the female mind (someone chime in if they thought different).
...It's not about whether you fall down, it's all about how fast you get up...
Words to live by those are, but the real trick is to not fall down, but really, you'd have never got this far into this thread if you hadn't fallen down.
Either way, now that i've managed to completely detroy any credibility i may have once had with you, welcome to the forums.

Look, there's one thing that you have to understand walking in to love. Love is pain. There is no way around it. If you put your emotions, your soul, up on the chopping block, regardless of how you try to protect it someone will eventually take a swing at it. But, and this is the important part, that is what makes love what it is. If it was simple, easy to understand, easy to preform, it would be worthless. The pain, the effort that we have to go through to finally make love work is what makes it so special. In the end we all want the same thing, happiness. Oldschool good times. There's no road map to life, no guides or gas stations to find directions. We all have to make our own way. Some take the high road, some take the low road. It's not my business to judge how another man/woman lives his/her life, they're as lost in this sea as I am.

To those that say I really wish I could find the "Hot chicks", I think you'll be shocked and surprised at what is really good for you in the long run. The good looking girls are not a bad thing, however your desire to hold that trophy to show the world what you have scored is not a good thing. Sometimes that girl you ignore because she doesn't fit your "Hot Chick" profile is the very best thing in the world for you. Many of us have to find things out the hard way, others never learn.
Don't waste too much time looking for what you really deep down know is not right for you.
Did I marry a "Hot Chick", she sure the hell is hot in my book. Smart is sexy.
Stupid people shouldn't breed, sad part is they do so more then most.

I must say, you two (terminal & Avalon) sure managed to beat the whole "i'm new here" thread, but welome to both of you... this means i get to call in the band twice in the same thread, my, won't they be tired.. so tired they had to change bass drums actually.http://spiffed.dhs.org/welcomeband.gif
I've never dated the "hot" girls, or the "cute" girls by popular definition, but she was sure as hell all those things to me. Hot and cute are deffinitley subjective terms and it's a shame that as a society we've developped a common veiw of what they mean. But this said, not all the hot girls of the world are stupid, some people really do have it all. Not all the "good looking" people on the planet are out f**ing everynight, it's just a stereotype. The world really needs to be experienced first hand, you can't assume anythings true untill you've done it. But i can say this, theres alot to be said for the unhot, uncute girls of society, if for nothing else then just because love really is blind.

Guys, I don't know if you noticed, but there are amazingly beautiful women all around us, it's not like there's a shortage. All you have to do is say something to get a conversation started. How many of you can't say that you've seen an incredible woman walking down the street with a guy that you would consider, ah, less than handsome. Why do you think that is? And before I hear any big johnson remarks, I guarantee it's because that guy knows how to talk to a woman, make her laugh, and make her feel special.
And spunkbubble, without knowing anything about your situation, I say drop the guy. If whatever he has done makes you hurt that bad, then honey, he's not good enough for you. You don't deserve to be hurt over and over again. Break the cycle, move on, and be happy.

well, welcome to the boards Gemini....
and on the note of your post, the best thing you could ever do, is to be yourself. I think someone said it hear already, but don't use a lie to pick up girls, because you never know, she might like you, and then your stuck lieing forever about it. And trust me, she'll be hurt when she finds out you were lieing to her.
And as far as the general myth around here that girls really aren't looking to date you, this isn't exactly true, although they may not have you in mind without ever meeting you, do you really think every female on earth wishes to end up alone and relationshipless? and trust me, their not ALL lesbians.
Anyhow, i found a nice quote i like from a song the other day, "I don't want to change the world, I'm not looking for New England, i'm just looking for another girl" (Billy Bragg - A New England). And it's true, it's not rocket science, it's just about being you, eventually, you'll find someone.

It's been a while now since anyone posted here so I thought I'd just let you know what's happening. All is going well with me and Sian, I've got a job which means moving further away from her for a year :(, we've started writing to each other a bit which is nice because we couldn't talk much. I've just bought a train ticket to go see her in a week on my B-day only £23! I was amazed it was so cheap, I've paid more for a train there which was a shorter journey. I can't wait to see her again, we'll have such a laugh. I'll make her buy me lunch as a pressie, hehe :D.
So is everyone one else still going ok in their love lives? I haven't seen spunkbubble around here in way too long :cry:

Hello people, It has been a while since I visited here again.
Apparently, the thread is still going strong with new blood coming and contributing.
Frankly, I have nothing more to add to what I have already said before. My opinion about life is more or less the same, if not more crsytalized than before.
The "downfall" as it is called, is mostly cost by communication breakdown. Now the difference is that if the communication broke down before marriage, all you get is the hangover the next day after 2 bottels of jack daniels. Where if the communication broke after marriege, that means your paycheck goes half to your spouse instead of all of it going to it (when you are married, you don't get to keep anything .. :) ... )
I like the atlantisjoe's words "before you say I love you, you must say I" ... thats why nowadys I don't say "I love you", just "Love you".
It has come to my attention that people have a misguided vision of relationships. Most people think that relationships are only contained in those that is in "LOVE" ... the truth is that relationships happends the minute we were born. From those that we have with our mothers, to those that we share with our friends. We even have a somewhat weak relationship with the strangers we see on the commuter we use everyday.
Relationships are the bond we have between people and it should be seen as that perspective. Once we can see it for what it is, we can then address it properly. A person that is bad in relationship handling can never be happy. When I use the word handling, I do not mean mangement or any action to deceive, the handling I mean here is the reaction in which we do or the choices in which we make inside these relationships.
Some people are said to be great friends but lousy lovers. The truth is that if you are good friends, you should be great lovers, why? because they are the same. Good lovers are those that understand the needs of others more than their own. That is the defination of love. To give and not think of taking. Unless in your relationship as friends, you are contstantly manipulating people to do things for you, else, you should excell in your other relationships. You see the way we handle one relationship is the same way we handle the others, we dont change from one person to another just by being with different people. Only our portrayal of ourselve change. We are still ourselves, and the decision we make are still based on the same experience and knowledge that we have in us.
so don't kid ourselve in thinking that we are good in one relationship and bad in another because the situation is different. If the relationship fails, that means we are responsible for it as much as the other party.
I hope I did not bore anyone with my posts again ... :)
enjoy and remember yoda's words ...
"Do or do not, there is no try"
may light shine on you all always.

well people, girls from day one have been a downfall for men. Ever since Eve fooled our good man Adam to eat the inedible you men have been suffering in this world for "survival of the sperm-owners"
As for me I am trying my best to eat you all off as much as i can in this lonely jungle. But, one time i remember this poor fella who was touring the jungle, before i ate him up he talked about his girlfriend, how he loved her dearly and would die for her. And guess what? I told him that a while ago i ate his girlfriend. So I told him if u let me eat u you ca meet her in heaven :D
and so my belly was taken care of. another day that poor fellas girlfrend came lookin' for him and i told her that i ate him. She was like crying her heart out. I told her if u let me eat u u can meet him in heaven. to this the girl said no! I don't want to die. I'd rather live and continue enjoying life in this world.
Saint Peter up from heaven was overlooking this whole incident with me and the girl, and he summoned the poor fella to witness the reality of his love. the poor fella could not take it anymore and he jumped from the heavens onto earth! oh what a sight ! he fell flat with a splat right in front of her.
I sighed :confused: confused. How dumb does men have to be?
Well i just walked off to my lair and turned my Winamp 2.8 on and tuned in to "The Vagina Song" by Bloodhound gang...
Internet sure is expensive in this wild Jungle. But I'll keep in touch. MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH

I've got no real excuse for not checking in as often as I used to, but much like everyone else, I guess other stuff just got in the way, my final year of school, e.t.c, e.t.c...
I was actually just feeling really shit tonight and was reminded of this thread. (What a compliment to you guys!!) But you know what I mean, I'm sure.
I did have the end of my year (and therefore school career) planned out, I was going to Sydney, I was going to attempt to make something of our torn up old relationship, sort it out for good. Now I've just... I don't know, fallen apart completely in regards to all of that.
Am I wrong? Somebody tell me, if a guy says...this...
"maybe you shold try and be seduced by other people, it's a big ocean"
what does it mean? Does it mean what I think it means?
Grr, I shouldn't still be in this same goddamn boat.
Hope it's going okay for the rest of you. Happy for you and Sian, Phily Baby!

Girls: An Analysis
By Daniel Green
Published 08.04.02 2002 @ 01:22:03 AM
All girls think they can sing. Whenever two or more girls come togehter they will start singing any song they have seen on MTV the night before. This annoyance leads me into the next section.
All girls are extremely jealous (although they will tell you differently) of anyone who looks better, sings better, gets better men, whatever. A comment lament may be heard after a Pepsi commercial featuring pop princess Britney Spears, "She's so slutty" or "What a stupid commercial". They say this because of the aforementioned innate jealousy.
All girls are inherently homosexual (although most hide it well enough, with very few actually being openly lesbian). The main proof of this I have dubbed the "girlfriend sleepover". During such an event, many girls will sit around in their pajamas and do each others' hair, do each others' makeup, and wax each others' legs. But the most infamous event taking place at the girlfriend sleepover is the tickle-fight (think Animal House panty raid). Each girl strips down to her underwear, grabs another girl, and then proceeds to tickle her victim to death. The end result, as you may expect, is a bunch of sweaty girls laying around in their underwear, panting heavily.
All good-looking girls can get any man to do anything they want. Men will bend over backwards for a "hottie", hoping that by doing such a girl a favor he will get in her good graces and thus have a chance with her.
All girls are pure evil. Every member of the female gender residing on this planet will lie, cheat, and steal (see TOOL, Undertow, Disgustipated), not to mention manipulate men, to get what they want. This works every time for the reason mentioned in the preceding section.
All good-looking girls will be nice to a man only when there is no other choice and it suits their interests. This usually occurs in the workplace when the female must be nice to a male in order to avoid making the workplace uncomfortable for herelf. So, basically she is only nice to you in order to make herself less unhappy.
All girls believe themselves to know everything. This shows whenever a girl puts her two cents in on any topic, which a girl will do frequently. There is no convincing the girl she is wrong; she will fight to the bitter end.
All girls, at one time or another, fit into the category Dumb Bitch. During this time, the girl can become exceedingly irritating, especially when confrontine a man with their aforementioned know-it-all-ism.
Why does anyone put up this bullshit? PROCREATION!

Dan "hasn't had a girlfriend in over a year" Green
And here's MY analysis of that...
"Whenever two or more girls come togehter they will start singing any song they have seen on MTV the night before." --- I have never, EVER done this. The only situation that comes close to this is talking to a friend (female OR male), and one says, "Ohh, do you remember that song???" And then try and remember the words by singing/saying lines. Half the time it's comedy songs like stuff from The Simpson's - so nobody is attempting to sing well, we're just stuffing around. And usually, this is with a member of the opposite sex.
"All girls are extremely jealous (although they will tell you differently) of anyone who looks better, sings better, gets better men, whatever. A comment lament may be heard after a Pepsi commercial featuring pop princess Britney Spears, "She's so slutty" or "What a stupid commercial"." --- I confess to being quite a jealous person at times. When I say jealous, I mean, if a boyfriend is close friends with a girl, I'll feel twinges of jealousy. That kind of a situation. With Britney Spears, yeah, I do say she's a slut and pretty bloody stupid, because she is. There's no way in hell I'd want to look or be anything like her, and I am fully aware I could be considered as "sexy" as her if I spent several hours in hair and make-up before appearing publically. So yeah, that bit's a half-truth, I can be pretty bloody jealous, but not of brainless, irritating people like her. Don't you guys find her annoying, too? I think I'd kill myself if I was that fake. :down:
"All girls are inherently homosexual (although most hide it well enough, with very few actually being openly lesbian). The main proof of this I have dubbed the "girlfriend sleepover". During such an event, many girls will sit around in their pajamas and do each others' hair, do each others' makeup, and wax each others' legs.

Each girl strips down to her underwear, grabs another girl, and then proceeds to tickle her victim to death. The end result, as you may expect, is a bunch of sweaty girls laying around in their underwear, panting heavily." --- Holy SHIT, that kind of thing has never happened at a girly sleepover I've been to. The closest thing to any of that is putting clips in each others hair, and once I had my hair curled at a sleepover. Oh, and once one of my friends did my make-up because we were going out and I'm pretty hopeless with make-up. Never have I waxed another girl's legs or had mine waxed by anyone else. And "tickle-fight"? wtf? Nothing even close to that has happened. Sure, I'd snog a few select female celebrities, I'm not afraid to admit that, but none of that tickle-fight shit has ever happened at any sleepover I've ever attended.
"All good-looking girls can get any man to do anything they want. Men will bend over backwards for a "hottie", hoping that by doing such a girl a favor he will get in her good graces and thus have a chance with her." --- Don't ask me, ask a good-looking chick. Although admittedly I have a history of getting what I want out of males if I want if badly enough. ;)
"All girls are pure evil. Every member of the female gender residing on this planet will lie, cheat, and steal (see TOOL, Undertow, Disgustipated), not to mention manipulate men, to get what they want. This works every time for the reason mentioned in the preceding section." --- Not about anything serious. I wouldn't ever cheat on someone, and there's only one time I've ever told a serious lie to a guy, and I cracked after not very long and confessed. Never stolen, either.
"All good-looking girls will be nice to a man only when there is no other choice and it suits their interests. This usually occurs in the workplace when the female must be nice to a male in order to avoid making the workplace uncomfortable for herelf. So, basically she is only nice to you in order to make herself less unhappy." --- Ask a good-looking chick. If you're nice to me, I'm nice to you. If you're a bastard to me, I'm a bitch to you, or I just avoid you altogether.
"All girls believe themselves to know everything. This shows whenever a girl puts her two cents in on any topic, which a girl will do frequently. There is no convincing the girl she is wrong; she will fight to the bitter end." --- Well, I love discussing controversial topics at length and exploring new ideas, I am obsessed with philosophy, so I guess this isn't really true for me, either. I love having other opinions explained, and often find myself adjusting my own opinions. But I think everyone is guilty of thinking their opinions are more correct than anyone elses!
"All girls, at one time or another, fit into the category Dumb Bitch. During this time, the girl can become exceedingly irritating, especially when confrontine a man with their aforementioned know-it-all-ism." --- All guys, at one time or another, fit into the category Dumb Bastard. During this time, the guy can become exceedingly irritating, especially when confronting a woman ... You get the idea :p /

It has been way too long since we had a decent discussion on this thread. I solute liquid motion and Spunk for their undenible wisdom in analysis on specific subject matter.
As for the actual case itself. Well, i think I will most probably replace the word 'female' in liquid motion mail to 'beutiful people', which will include both male and female (excluding the female fraternity thing with waxes ... ouch!!!).
The fact is that, nice looking people are brought up in a different world from ours. They don't go through the same emotional high-lows like normal looking chaps. for example, there is no way in hell, could a normal looking girl get away for saying dumb things. Why? Because the listening party would never allow that person to speak in the first place. All nice looking people like to hear their own voice, regardless of the topic/content being said. That will include singing as well.
One of the major reasons the chat sites/forums are so popular would be due to the lack of physical complications like 'how a person looks' or 'what their voice would sound like' ... in these 'quite and discreet' places ... only the true self is shown (or hidden, depending on the person's grammer skills) ... where a person's knowledge and feelings are expressed properly without complexifying the issue into a matter of who looks better, rather then who is more accurate (mind you, I never say right, only more accurate to the situation required) ...
As for britney, well ... it is not like I am going to marry her, she is an entertainer ... so let her do her job and entertain ... if her boobs are the centre of attention, then why not? ... entertainments are meant to cheer a person up, if you don't like it, change the channel ... no point, be littleling these entertainers ... it is just a job. No one thing can please everybody ... as a matter of fact, not even GOD (and HE is suppose to be the best we all have seen).
By nature, human beings like to compete, from little things like who gets through the door first to who is the president of the world. But these kind of competitions does not serve us well, as it only creates distrust and fear. Through competitions are those that encourages growth and happiness. Where people are given hope for a better self and a better life. Not just because of losing but rather to know that there are places where we can improve so that the quality of life becomes better.
where we are honest to ourselves and our thoughts, it will be easier for us to see the real reason for every actions and decisions. And based on that fact, we will then be able to improve our weakness, and enhance our strength. No one is perfect. We can only strive to become better day by day.
You see the strangest things in life, is that good things attracts good things, and Bad things attract Bad things. It is a fundamental law. But it is not what you think it is means literally.
A positive person will never see a negative thing, even when everyone else see's it as negative. In a positive person's perspective, everything is positive, or works towards being positive. One old saying that 'Good people always see the best in others' ... and that is what reality is. If you see the world as grey and colourless, then the world will become what you make of it. It is a matter of perception, or what Stephen R. Covey (authour of The 7 habits of highly effective People) will say, it is the lens in which you see the world that makes the world what it is.
It takes time for a person to come to terms with their innerself. And only then can a person trully free themselves from the clutches of menial tasks. Only then can every word and action be filled with life and passion.
spunk, before you asks someone to love you, you must first know who you are. If not, you will not know, what you are giving to others. Trying to patch things up with your other half, is not going to change a single thing, because all you are doing is asking the other to change so that they can stay with you. In truth, we have to be true to ourselves before we can asks others to come to us. And mind you it is ASKS ... it is their decision and their life. If this person does not work, then move on, there will be others that can see you as who you are without needing you to ask them to change or accept you. That is the whole point of finding a partner .. as the world implies, a person that will stand by you because they believe in who and what you represent. But most of all, they are they because they love you for you and no other reasons. I am not asking you to not reflect upon yourself, rather that was the first thing that I asks you to do, you must get to know yourself. when you start to understand, then asks yourself, 'what things in my life can I improve so that the quality of my life will improve as well' ... and work on that.
And what is the 'quality of life' ... that differs from person to person ... my view of 'quality' is the amount of contribution that I can give to other peoples life. How much more can I become better, so that other people can benefit from my growth. Growth here meaing both physical, mental as well as spiritual. It is the triangle that keeps a human being whole. An imbalance in any one of them, will only cause the person to fall from grace, and go towards the 'DarkSide' (as most starwar fans will understand).
well .. I think I have said enough for now ... if you guys want to carry on the discussion, I will be happy to obliege.
Enjoy.

/me introduces herself to the thread. Hello all. I have to admit, I didn't read all 20 pages, but I thought I'd comment on the opening arguement anyway.
I have to say that not all women go for a "bad boys". Often they do, but I think after awhile, females figure out that they are not a reform school. Once that's been realized, then usually that's better. However some women never seem to figure this out.
I think what a woman is looking for in a partner (this just happens to be what I use to look for, but have now found :)) is someone that she can be herself around. Someone who shares common interests, but is different enough to keep things interesting. Someone who will appreciate and truly love her for what she is. Of course, communication is key!
I know some women are gold-diggers and whatnot and frankly, that sort of behaviour disgusts me. Unfortunately there are still people in the world who put on airs and pretend in hopes of gaining the most "status" and money. That would just never make me happy, and I guess for some people money is happiness.

Lets see, Im 18 and I have tried my whole miserable :cry: life to get a girl. Saddly (or just plain weird :weird: ) the last girlfriend I had was in junior high (egads has it been that long). It seems that the majority of highschool women are all stuck on themselves. Either that or they only will go for the jocks :hang: (I like to call them Fungals, Hee Hee) which only a small precent of them actually have brains. Now I'm not a nerd, and I did ask a few girls to prom and I still turned up with nothing. What the hell is wrong with all of you girls, do I have to play sports for you to be my friend, do I have to look the way you want? I mean for Christs sake, Im smart, Im not a bad guy (unless some other idiot pisses me off) I like doing a lot of different things. I dont know if popularity has anything to do with this issue but I'm sure it fits nicely in there somewhere. Hell, I have a good personality and I like to film movies...What else could be wrong with me? :(

Number One, there is nothing wrong with you I bet. You are still quite young and sometimes people just don't find love until a little later in life. I know it sounds cliche, but sometimes if you stop looking, you'll find love when you least expect it :)

I have decided to push women aside and wait until college starts next year to worry again. No I would never be an asshole to a girl, its not in my nature. An exception to this would be if we were married and she decided to cheat, then I would change. It seems like a lot of highschool girls(and guys) aren't really mature enough to know whats really going on. They are influenced by stuff on tv and movies etc. I understand love a little, but for right now I have more important things to worry about. Once I settle down, then I can return to finding someone.

yeah,. 60% of popular songs containing some form, or suggestion of cheating on your "woman", "man", doesnt help either, it seems lkike the industry is telling people that its cool to be a player
personally, players make me sick.

When I was 14, I hoped that one day I would have a girlfriend.
When I was 16 I got a girlfriend, but there was no passion. So I decided I needed a passionate girl with a zest for life.
When I left school, I dated a passionate girl, but she was too emotional. Everything was an emergency, she was a drama queen, cried all the time and threatened suicide. So I decided I needed a girl with stability.
When I was 25 I found a very stable girl but she was boring. She was totally predictable and never got excited about anything. Life became so dull that I decided I needed a girl with some excitement.
When I was 28 I found an exciting girl, but I couldn't keep up with her. She rushed from one thing to another, never settling on anything. She did mad impetuous things and flirted with everyone she met. She made me miserable as often as happy. She was great fun initially and very energetic, but directionless. So I decided to find a girl with some ambition.
When I turned 31, I found a smart ambitious girl with her feet planted firmly on the ground and married her. She was so ambitious that she divorced me and took everything I owned.
I am now 40 and am looking for a girl with very big tits.

(a) She'd never take backsass from Hussein in the first place and would have personally put him in his place before he could get out of hand.
(b) Then, if he started getting antsy again, she'd simply go over there and take the bastard out herself in a very simple, ecological, and economical way - and without having to involve everyone else on the planet. :p
Chicks rule and dudes drool. ;)
Seriously, though...
Good guys rule. The other ladies that I know, myself included, like a man who's basically a good guy but who has "good mysterious" qualities about him, when it's required. That includes, for many of us anyway, a little "bad boy" persona he can slip into occasionally. I mean, c'mon guys, think about it: would you prefer to be hit on by the smart-but-plain librarian or by a dumb-but-gorgeous club dancer? Now, which one would you rather give everything in your house and bank account to for safekeeping? Now, combine them both and you get a woman who can balance a checkbook, never maxes out her (or your) credit cards, and knows how to get your motor running any time she wants. See what I mean? Good girl, "bad" streak. Same thing with guys.

My two cents.
Are we still discussing about how 'females' ruin our lives here?
If so, then my only advice to whoever is reading this (me included) is get on with life.
Woman's are never going to change nor is Man any different.
pick the one you like and make sure they have the things you want, everything else you want is an added bonus.
Now the example to my saying above is like this.
Case 1:
If you want a guy who is smart and romantic, then go and get that man. But when you get him, don't you complain how he does not clean after the mess he makes, nor do you complain about his monday footballs. Because a smart man gets someone else to do their things for them, and Romantics are only good with certain occasions not ALL of them. (Read the instructions that come with them, it states clearly their usage and expiry date)
Case 2:
If you want a woman who can balance a checkbook, never maxes out her (or your) credit cards, and knows how to get your motor running any time she wants. Then go and get one, I can tell you from experience they exist, they usually work in high positions in a company. Now if you can get one of these, do not complain when she is trying to manage your life for you, don't complain that you no longer have freedom to think for yourself and DON'T you ever complain that she can't COOK!!! ... because when you asked for her, you already knew all of that. Management is what she does best, and that is what she will do in her life and yours (Management does not get their hands dirty, hense no Cooking included).
That is why when we ask for something, asks for it properly. State everything that you want and accept what you get. It is like the genie thing, you will always get what you asks for, but seldom what you think.
Me. I only asked for a woman that will make me happy, and that I can make them happy the same time. The flaws that come with them are part and parcels of the entire thing. That is why I love her so.
Yes, she will nag. She will throw tantrums. She will also say things she does not mean. And forget to say I love you. But she is also caring when I am sick. She loves me more that words can say. And most of all, she is what I asked for in life. Someone to love me, and for me to love.
No one is perfect, we aren't. so why should be expect our other parts to be too ...
Sit on this, and think.
If you can understand it, you will be able to meet with every aspect of life. For it is a general rule. Love others like you love yourself, and you shall know true love in every soul you touch.
PS:
If you only want to have big tits, then go get a cow.
If you want to have great sex, get one who enjoys it. :)

Oh man! And I have hoped to find someone who would love me, cos' I don't love myself :)
I have seen too many twisted relationships. Still I haven't lost my belief in true love. It comes if it comes. I know life ain't fair and that I may never find anyone. But I won't let it bother my life. I live my life taking what life gives to me (or takes from me). And I'm not unhappy or depressed all the time. There's more in life than love. Friendship is as important too..
Trust is the thing I need. IMO it's the most important thing in human. There's no friendship or relationship without it. So what everybody should learn is to trust and be loyal..
I read this thread yesterday, and maybe I can join in now as I have something to say..
Edit:
oops, almost forgot.. GIRLS ARE NOT THE DOWNFALL OF SOCIETY!!

21st August 2002, 09:43
Ah ... love ... look at it properly.
Love is not BOY-GIRL love ...
Love is a feeling of fulfillment in life.
To be stated properly, love is the outcome of relationships. ALL RELATIONSHIP.
due to our popular TV series, our common people have shrunk the meaning of love to just the brief or first phase of a 'MARRIEGE' relationship.
please ... wake up and smell the flowers.
Love ... is a very broad spectrum of things.
Now if we want to have a discussion on that, we might need to start a new thread. :)
Lapikas
21st August 2002, 10:01
Yes I know it's not only boy-girl thing. I have a friend who knows I love her, and I know that she loves me. I don't wan't her as my girlfriend, it's not that kind of love. Actually we talked about our friendship once and thought that it was odd that we haven't had any "boy-girl" thing between us. There's that trust I like between us :)
By the way: Not a bad idea to make a thread about the definition of love..
izchan
21st August 2002, 10:28
Not that I don't want to start the thread ... :) ... but I have found that it takes a lot of responsibility of maitaining a thread. It was only fortunate that this thread had a lot of loyal followers and well .. the topic is interesting.
As for the 2 gender no 'sex' relationship ... :) ... that will include the 'boy-girl' relationship ... it happends ...
I have personaly several such relationship (... mainly because I am too ugly to be taken to any outings ... so they keep me as a mouth and ear person .. :) .. never the face ) ... you don't get that urge to 'HAVE' them ... you just enjoy their company or conversation.
That is what I talk about when I mean love.
Love is many a thing,
it is like water,
ever changing,
ever required,
which can kill and heal the same time.
the scope of the subject is interesting too ... the love of brotherhood (and sisterhood) .. the love of parent and child ... the love of religion ... the love of life ... the love of marriege .... and many more ... all of them are love ... if you have a relationship then you have are in 'LOVE' ... and if you know how to contribute into the relationship, then you will know how to love.
It is simple and straight foward ...
to love or not, there is no try ... :) [just to quote YODA]
give or give not, there is no other way ...
I am no saint, nor do I pretend to be one.
I am merely a mortal, with knowledge of heartaches
where bruises cover every inch of my soul made from my past mistakes.
Yet, in all those pain and suffering, light still shone on me.
for there is love in the air, no matter what the suffering.
As there is life in us all, we choose what and who we are.
if you know that, you WILL know 'TRUE LOVE' ... :) ... or should I say, 'TOTAL LOVE' ... for that is what it is. One love is no different from another, no matter what situation, no matter the time, no matter the place, no matter the person.
hope i don't sound too 'mushy' ... but that is what I feel and live by.

Hahah! Few friends told me once that I'm a saint. Didn't know what to reply to that. :) Made me laugh anyway.
I see that you have thought these things pretty much. You have a clear definition what love is to you. and I admire the way you can express yourself with words. I wish I could too. Maybe that's just a matter of learning.
Think I'll go and start reading that poem thread now. Just to kill some time. Maybe I'll learn something from there.. :up:

izchan. I wish I could understand everything about this messed up world, but unfortunately I'm only 18, so that means I still have lots of life to learn. Like I said before, unless something happens, Im going to wait till college to find that certain someone. If I dont find her then, I still have plenty of chances after that because my future career choice involves heavy people interaction, and who knows...maybe the one for me is in Hollywood? :rolleyes: Was that a run on sentence? :confused: I can never tell, oh well, it sounds good to me.... :rolleyes:

Thank you for understanding ... :)
You will be surprised how hard it is to explain this to my friends in the real world. Most of them can't accept the simplicity in life. I mean not to say it is not complex, but the principle of it is simple.
as for the 18 and going on part, well ... enjoy it. Because that is what life will be. No one will know how and when it will all end. It could end these very minute you are reading this.
Yesterday have gone by.

As for sex, it can wait. What I'm looking for is someone who likes to do the same things I do, and understands things. What I'd have to do is understand what her wants and needs are etc. Boy does that sound cheesy, oh well... Anyway, Im old enough so I think im going to try those yahoo personals and stuff etc, see if that works.

In all that is Holy, if indeed anything is, please put me out of my misery. I just read every single post on this thread. I feel like bursting into incredolous laughter at myself, only I can't quite comprehend what I've just done yet. :weird:
No offense, of course. :D
Anyway, I suppose I'll tackle the girl thing that was brought up, what? A year ago? More? I forget, and I'll be damned if I'm even going back to look. We're talking severe, if temporary, phsycological damage done.
Girls? Not a problem. Why? Not interested. Gay? Nope (and boy, I get asked that a lot). Mix some Schzoid with a touch of Schizotypal, make me a Furry, and you've got a guy who will laugh with you, smile, and never make one advance. Not unlike many other guys, I'm thinking. :rolleyes:
I don't mind though. Interesting lifestyle. Going to get more interesting now that I'm starting college...in nine days. :eek:

Now if only someone wold invent a transporter device (like a train) that travelled through time and space (like a train), that only took about 2 hrs to get to Cardiff from Newcastle (like a plane) then the world would be a much better place. I think someone should strap a big jet engine to a train and build a completly straight bit of track through england. I'm sure that would only make the journey 40mins instead of 6.5 hrs.

Now it has been sometime since my last post in this thread. And given that I still visit here once in a while.
Maybe I should be more specific. This thread have had some serious impact on my current relationship. And frankly, it has made me keep things in a clearer perspective than before.
thanks to people like papadoc, phily, missy ... :),jns, and everyone else that I miss to name. The conversations are intuitive and thought provoking ( after reading through the entire thread everything would be mental provoking as well )
Now I would still stick to the fact that the world will fall on its own weight, with or without the assistance on the female gender.

I agree that world will eventually fall.. And girls are not what this threads topic claims. Just in case if I forgot to mention earlier. I didn't have girlfriend when I first read this thread. I don't know if this has affected anyway to the relationship I have now. But I think that this thread was pretty interesting.
And manthabeats, girls are sometimes hard to get.. But someone will definetly come to your life someday. I had to wait for a long time, but I didn't lose my faith. Have some patience..
And since this is going nicely offtopic, I think I put a nice quote here...

It's in Breaking News because one day, in a drunken stupor,
Steve and Justin and Mike the Llama decided that
Propaganda and Music-O-Rama had to go.
So they came up with the idea of making Music-O-Rama
into DJ & Listener Center, and putting Propaganda into Breaking News.
This place has never been the same since.
But good threads will never die.
They are the only ties to better days gone by.

The Joy Of Sharing
A young man saw an elderly couple sitting down to lunch at McDonald's. He noticed that they had ordered one meal, and an extra drink cup. As he watched, the older gentleman carefully divided the hamburger in half, then counted out the fries, one for him, one for her, until each had half of them.
Then the old man poured half of the soft drink into the extra cup and set that in front of his wife. The old man then began to eat, and his wife sat watching, with her hands folded in her lap.
The young man decided to ask if they would allow him to purchase another meal for them so that they didn't have to split theirs.
The old gentleman said, "Oh, no. We're old. This is plenty for us. Besides, we've been married 50 years, and everything has always been and will always be shared, 50/50."
The young man then asked the wife if she was going to eat her share, and she replied, "Not yet. This time he gets the first turn with the teeth."
See there... we can all get along if we want to.

Hiya papdoc. Yea, stuff is going quite well at the moment, I must admit. It somehow feels more comfortable to be miserable but I have difficulty doing that so much lately.
Hey, why be proud of me, I haven't done anything to earn it yet!
I am sorry to hear you have Menieres Disease, I know a few people (relatives) who also have it. At times my ear rings, softly, but it goes away and only happens rarely.
Nobody is going to change me, not ever!

Damn this is a huge thread. I found this a while back, and have been slowly reading the entire damn thing. I actually found it as a side-link to something a friend showed me, and signed up because this thread interested me, and the people here seem to really care about each other.
What can I say? Izchan, you sound like a very rare person. Somebody who knows what they want, can say what they want, and can express emotions openly. A very rare thing in today's world. spunkbubble & jns sound like very good people who shouldn't get screwed around like they seem to have been in the past.
Love will hurt eventually. There is no if's, but's, or maybe's about it. Whether this is a week after you meet, or when you are both old & grey, and lying in your deathbeds, it hurts eventually. The question is whether or not the eventual pain is worth the trip you will take together to reach it.
In many cases, the answer is no, and people will break up all the time. Sometimes they try to stick together for whatever reason, but if it isn't going to work, 9/10 times, this is a bad idea. Relationships end, and there is no way to have a love affair with someone that will keep you as excited as it does in the first couple of weeks of fire & passion. The question is whether or not you can actually truly love somebody, not just have a surface level affection for them, but actually develop a heart-felt, deep feeling, true love for the other person. This means a different thing to everybody, and when you figure that out, then you can go searching for that person, and if you want to, you can still have relationships while you search. Just remember to enjoy them while they last, and do not go into the relationship either expecting her to be 'the one', nor do you go into it expecting her to not be 'the one'. If she is, then you have succeeded. If not, then enjoy it while it lasts, and when it ends, pick yourself up out of the pit of misery & despair that you will occasionally find yourself in, and try again.
Just a side note, many people subscribe to an idea of only 1 person who is just right for them, and spend their lives looking for that person. That isn't correct, IMO. There are many people out there that you could be happy spending your remaining days on this little blue planet with. The trick is finding them, and having them feel the same about you as you do about them. A relationship where neither one of you is truly in love, but you both have a surface level affection for the other person is fine if you can handle that, and both care about each other. It is not something that will last forever, if even particularly long, so do not expect such things to be long-lasting, love-of-your-life experiences. They are fun for you both while it lasts, but is far from permanent.
A permanent relationship is a very big thing, and many people aren't ready for it. People mature at different rates, and one 18 Yr old girl could be ready for that, while another just couldn't handle something as important as that. Just don't expect your partner to be something they aren't, and accept them as they are. Many people wander this world without a clue what tey truly want, and hence they never find it. Many of these people are perfectly happy in their own little corner of the world, and if you are happy, then so be it. Just try to find somebody that makes you happy, makes your world just that little bit more pleasant, and enjoy the ride while it lasts.

Wow. How's that for a first post, eh?
And in all that, I forgot to mention that girls aren't the cause of the downfall of society. Nor are women. Nor are men or boys (Most of us can't tell the difference between man & boy, but that's another rant for another time). There is no single cause for the downfall of society, and as yet, it hasn't happened. We are just a group of 6 or 7 billion people trying to edge out our own little niche in the world, and trying to be happy. Anybody who can do that, congratulations. To everyone else that hasn't got there yet, keep trying, and don't give up.

you know....there is some truth to this story...when i was in high school i only dated guys out of high school mainly because they had a car, money and could get me wasted.
now i am much older and wonder why 20 something guys where going out with teenagers.....i mean...ew.
anyway, there's no secret to picking up girls... hangout where kids hang out and meet a girlchild, buy her stuff, taxi her around and do whatever she says....basicly be her bizatch. and in return she will mostlikely never sleep with you and you will recieve death threats from her father. doesnt that sound like fun?

I'm 20, and I have no interest in teenagers. For the most part, they bugged me even when I was one of them. Many are shallow, pathetic little individuals who have not grown up at all since they were 12 or 13, and I thought this at the time I had to go to school with a heap of them. I truly do not understand the desire for 20-something guys to date teenie-bopper 16 year olds.
There are some people there that are genuinely nice people, who are real people, not just following the latest Britney craze, or something equally bizarre & sheepish. People who are actually what they appear to be, people who are true to themselves. These people are rare, but the ones I find, I am friends with, and I value them dearly.
The stuff I wrote above I have gathered from my experiences, and the experiences of my friends. I have picked it up from listening to all sides of many a relationship discussion. Every relationship is different, as are all people. If it were any other way, would life be as interesting or fun?

Man .. the ever foolish animal.
Do you know why we are on longer in eden?
Because we listen to woman instead of GOD.
Mind you, I am not saying that it was woman that got us kicked out, rather, think about it, we ignored the all powerful, the ONE!!! the big guy and listen to a WOMAN!!!! What kind of a fool is that?
Next, as a man myself I understand that I am weak. :) ... I am weak and foolish because I keep falling in love with the same kind of woman. The kind that treats me like trash and the kind that thinks that they control every single cell of my body.
Now that I have said my part. I will explain why I am not grumpy :)
Because I know that at the end. We all die.
thats it, the end, no more sequels.
there is nothing left to think about.
we are dead.
so, the only that I can do is to be happy.
Even if the woman in my life thinks that I am good for nothing other than drive her around, she still cuddles in my arm when she needs warmth. She still makes me breakfast in the morning, because she knows that I am easier to control with a full stomach. She is my partner in this life, and I enjoy it. The who is in control factor is something of an oversight, I don't mind giving up some control as long as the effect of it is not severe.
The basic of any good relationship is this
1. Know who you are.
2. Know who they are.
3. Know that someone has to give.
4. Decide that and live on.
I love my gf, I want to live the rest of my mortal life with her.
But is that enough? Because she too must think the same way. That is the hard part. We make do with what we have and create miracles. I hope she feels the same way, because I have had these kind of discussions with her as well.
Man don't just roll over and die.
Man eats shit if required.
Because that is how things are completed.
and woman, like it or not, completes man.
Thank you and enjoy the thread. :)

I've learned a lot about women. I think I've learned exactly how the fall of man occured in the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden, and Adam said one day, "Wow, Eve, here we are, at one with nature, at one with God, we'll never age, we'll never die, and all our dreams come true the instant that we have them." And Eve said, "Yeah... it's just not enough is it?"
There are very special teenagers out therethat aren't stupid shallow teeny bopers. I should know, I've found the perfect one.

here is how it is
if you dont believe in yourself...nobody else will
girls want a guy with confidence.
Material things dont matter...if your girl says otherwise...you dont need her.
Guys dont act all big and bad when they are alone with the girl. Its called showing off. If a guy acts all big and bad when they are alone he is abusive.
Case in point...i joke around with my friends letting their girls boss them around and how i never let that happen...but ill tell you that if i dont call my gf first thing in the morning to see if she wants to do anything than im going to get it later on.
But most of all...dont be a sniviling little pathetic "im such a loser" all the time. Girls dont like that.
And if your not happy then a girl wont solve that. Girls arent meant to bring you happiness...they are meant to share it with you.

(luckily her girlfriend stopped her and saved my life) since she wanted to cause me the most pain by killing me i think she loves me the greatest and hung on to her till now... it's been almost 3 years ;) and counting... i know this doesnt make much sense but it worked for me some fricken how.. well wat i am trying to say is that u should cherish the people that try to kill you!

I know what I want from a relationship. I am a nice guy. I am confident in myself, and I am still completely unattached, despite many attempts to rectify my situation. I don't have a heap of issues, but most my friends consider me pretty strange & weird. I don't know what women want. I am me, and I am quite happy being by myself. All I want is somebody who I can love, who will love me, and who I can snuggle up with and wrap my arms around, and be content.
Apparently that's too much to ask of the world. So be it. I no longer care. Be happy with yourself. If you can find somebody to share your short existance with, then enjoy the time you can spend together. I am happy with myself for now. Screw them all. I don't care anymore. I quit.

Saiz66 ...
nothing beats praticality ... :) ... don't just read about it. Do it.
You might say, 'I Cant Get one in the FIRST PLACE!!!!'
well ... thats the point. If you are constantly trying to get into a relationship, you will never get one.
Before any 'boygirl' relationship, there is friendship. If you can't even hold a friend down, then you need to improve before it will ever reach the 'I am in love' relationship.
So don't just read about relationships, go and practice and have one. Once you understand the person, you will then understand their thoughts and needs. With that, you can then decide if for whats it worth, if you are capable to being that person that she/he needs. If you can't even provide the simple needs of theirs, it does matter if you are the king of the world, you will still be unable to attain the relationship that will last.
As for the man is weak portion that I wrote above.
It is suppose to mean that we need to understand ourself as well as our partner, only when we know ourself better, can we participate in a long lasting relationships.
As I said before. Know yourself, know your partner. Only through understanding can a path be found.
Go and have a relationship.
Be it end with tears
or last forever.
it always begin with ourself
and end with faith.
enjoy.

here's an example of a girl i try my damndest not to be:
a good friend of mine "the guy" has been dating a total drama-bitch for the past two years, we've all asked him why puts up with her crap. prime example, the guys (my ex included)planned a huge all guys trip to Fort Lauderdale for spring break. drama-bitch threw the biggest hissy fit on this earth and every day the guys were there, she would call him every day and at practically almost every hour to "check" on him. this drove everybody nuts, including us girlfriends because she would try to get us to check on our guys. i didn't and needn't have to. she just wanted us to be as suspicious as she is. i finally got tired of her incessant phone calls and told her "why the fuck do you want to piss off your man while he's down where beautiful women are everywhere? you're just begging for trouble." and to this day, i'm the only "girlfriend" that knows that they ALL went to strip bars a couple of times. and know what? "the guy" never once, did anything he had to hide. he's been always true to her, and she in returns tightens the noose ever so slightly each day.

Rocketgirl, I'm 20, and I didn't mean love means pain, it just will end up in it, and is unavoidable.
My reasons for not giving a rat's arse about anything anymore is related to a number of things. i seriously doubt I'll be looking for a gf for a fair while. If one falls in my lap, then I'll be happy with the development, but My recent experiences have shown me there are more important things in the world than women & sex. Meaningless, shallow relationships are not worth it, and real, deep relationships are too damn hard to develop, and hurt too much when they end.
Changing to be more like what the woman you love says she wants just screws you over completely, then she does the same. Shallow people cannot see the depths of a deep person's soul, as the depths have no mirror in the shallows, and cannot be seen by them.
Sorry for ranting a bit there. Like Izcahn said, "we need to understand ourself as well as our partner, only when we know ourself better, can we participate in a long lasting relationships" Last attempt of mine ddin't have a fucking clue about herself, or what she wants.

Tavernology
6th August 2003, 15:27
My sentiments exactly.
All relationships have their ups & downs, and when the down gets too deep, the participants cannot crawl out of the hole they dug, and it must end. Not all must end, sometimes the relationship can survive anything, and they live happily ever after. Most fon't, and occasionally, both parties agree that it isn't working, and it must end. So both are hurt far less, but it will still hurt to end a relationship somewhere along the line.
"Find the right person to love, and keep them" Sounds simple enough, but these are the two hardest things in the world.
I have yet to find somebody I can truly love, who is willing to feel the same about me. Every relationship I've been in has turned out to be a hollow shell of what I want, and meant nothing, or very little, to the woman I loved at the time. Tell me again how there is no pain in love?
izchan
7th August 2003, 11:59
relationships are a game for two.
two must give or it does not work.
if only one give, then the other is a parasite.
If both don't give, then they just want sex.
If one is undecided, then that is a bummer.
but most of all, if one is unfaithful, then might as well find another.
relationship can be attribute to as a simbiotic priciple. If both don't get something from it, it is better off alone.

Well after living hundreds of miles away from my girlfriend for 3 years I get an interview for a job in her home town. Then she gets REALLY pissed because of this because she doesn't want to stay in Cardiff. Then we decide to move in together, then she decided that she doesn't want to and that we should break up. We do that and agree to stay friends and talk on the phone. Then she decides that she doesn't want to do that either. So I'm moving down there on Saturday, starting work on the 4th.
I want to buy a pussy wagon and have lots of hot meaningless sex because it's something I've never done and feel like I've missed out a lot in my child/early ******hood.
So what do you suggest is the best pussy wagon around for £9k? I'm thinking either Audi A3 or Seat Leon Cupra R. But I am unsure at the pussy pulling power of these vehicles.

Sounds like she wasn't ever really your girlfriend. Get the Audi.

I concur with the audi ....
As for the other matter ... here is my two cents
Girlfriends come and go
wives will bleed you to death
the wagon is forever .... :)
Do I still believe in love?
Of course I do, what else could I do with the rest of my life?

Women are just as full of shit as men are.
Women lie just as much as men do.
Women will cheat just as much as men do.
Women love to flirt and have sex just as much as men do.
What's the moral of the story?
The only difference between men and women are the tools they have and men can't get pregnant. Other than that expect from a woman the same things you would expect from a man.
Kinda makes life look bleak, don't it? It's not going to make me stop liking women though. :)

Took the words out of my mouth ... other than the fact someone said that woman are from venus ... go figure.
I do have a little to add to that though, if you think that woman are the same as man, you will be sourly surprise because they are more than that. If you underestimate them ... my friend ... you will go down your grave faster than you will ever know.
Hear this ...
If you come across a woman and a snake ... choose the snake, at least you will know that they will bite.
:) ... does it stop me from liking woman? of course not, life is nothing without some adventure.

Hi ya, izchan! *waves* And I remember you a bit, spunkbubble.
You have to admit, this thread is a bit amazing in how us gals get to view the guys' side of things. Although, some opinions are a bit over the top. ;)
I'm married now, to a guy who was about to give up on finding a woman. That, I think is the key. Stop looking among the girls/boys *immaturity*, and cast your eyes on another section of society. Those people that are comfortable with who they are, and know that relationships are 40/60 each way.
And don't expect perfection, you're never gonna get it. My husband once said that I was perfect. I told him to never use that word at me again. I'm far from perfect.

Hello ShyShy ... :) ... be it me or just almost every man in the world, we all agree that we love our woman. They are not perfect, they are not nice but they make us happy (and sad and angry and lost) all in one nice bundle.
Man, we are simple things. We love, we hate and we sleep. :)
Woman in the other hand is more than simple. They are an enigma to our eyes. Logic does not always apply. Even emotions are not a good gauge of how things work.
for example. Just last week. My girlfriend gave me the 10th degree, for making a mistake while cleaning the house. I mean, it was an honest mistake and I apologize for it. I rectify my error and continued on. But she, well ... she did not. She just suddenly blew up and started saying that I never pay attention to things, I dont keep my promises, I don't listen to her and yada yada yada. Frankly I don't even know where those come from. When I am working, I pay attention to things that I do, but sometimes there small stuffs that get slip through the cracks, I compenstate those by addressing it when it comes up. to me it is about the work, but to her, it is about something else totally. Of couse I know what she is saying, it is not about the work at hand, she is just angry that I made that mistake after she specifically asked me to be careful. And I was carefull just not enough.
That book I read about venus and mars .. it explains to me some of the differences in our thinking, and I can accept it to a certain degree. But there comes a time when those tantrums that she throws, make me totally furious.
I love her. I trully do. I cannot imagine having a life without her. But the way that she treats me when she is having her fit, are those that gives me the feeling that I am the only one in this relationship. Words that she uses, the anger and everything that she does makes me feel like just walking away.
As I said before, man are simple creatures, we love , we hate and we sleep. simple rules nothing complicated. When a man loves, he loves entirely. everything. the good, the bad and the ugly. That has seldom been the problem. But the one thing that man hates is that ones that love is given, he feels that he is betrayed. For example, man help fix the things in house, he works and hopes to make things work. Now lets say, for some reason, one of the things he fixes fails to work, he thinks, ok lets do this another way, but the missus came in at this time and she says "why are you taking so long? can't you fix that at all?" ... man has no idea why he was being blamed for not making the thing work, he is trying his best to make it happend, but woman just came in and BLAMED him for being an idiot.
now what gives with this kind of attitude? And let me put this properly, this is not just happening to me, it is happening to people around me as well. Man as a general feels degraded because of this. We feel that we are just toys and nothing more.
I personally have been through these situation so many times that I sometimes I wonder why do I put myself in these places in the first place. There are more fulfilling things that we can do with our lives then spend it by letting other people belittling our existance.
But at the end, I am still here, with her, caring and loving. why? because I have to some certain extent, accepted the nature in which woman are. I love her, I truly do, and with that I accept the fact that, that is the way that a woman loves a man. It is how god made them, and we are how god made us.
are they the downfall? god knows ... she made them ... :)

I know I haven't contributed much to this post in the past (still suprized thaat it hasn't been locked) but things have changed drasticlly since I have.
To elaborate, I had a stedy girlfriend for about 6 months which I loved very much and I spent most of my time with her to try and understand her :-)
I don't regret us breaking up although I did hope we can resolve our diffrences but we couldn't.
I still like girls (even that one, we're still friends) and wouldn't trade their company for the world.

hello dude4444, i too am surprise that the thread is alive and kicking ... :). As for your breakup I understand it totally. Neither would I trade my time with all my previous relationships. but the sad fact to me is that, no matter how many of these relationships we have, we will never trully get how they think.
Many a times, I wonder what makes us so different. Why do they have that ability to make me feel so small that I want to kill myself, then at times, they make me feel like a king. They don't really like logical thinking, as they always tend to make me feel that I am always doing something wrong.
Again, the book (mars and venus) says that the female population always do that. It is their way of fixing us. When we feel that we don't much need fixing. What we need though is support, both mentally and physically. All I wanted was to be loved without strings attached. Being manipulated is not what I want in my love life.
They are plenty more in my mind, but I think I will just keep it there for a while.
I love them all.

Hmm I don't understnad how girls think because in school when I was hanging round with all my sad mates I used to fancy this girl. One day I decided I didn't want to hang round with my mates because they're so immature making fun of my name like stephen weven etc... So sad! Anyway I went to my registration class on my own from now on. But now I was on my own the girl I fancied came over with her friends and started talking to me. I don't see why they wouldn't talk to me before when I had friends lol:rolleyes:

I seem to recall hearing that one should never trust anything that bleeds for 7 days and doesn't die. :eek:

hgnis .... yes ... that is in my quote thread ... :)
and frankly speaking ... does anyone in this world understand woman? I believe even woman don't understand woman.
man ... simple animals ... we laugh, we eat and we sleep. Well there is the occasional sex but that depends on the woman so I rest my case.

Amen brother! Quite frankly, I don't understand most of the women that I know. My best friend and I are lucky in that we both view other women the same way. They're a bunch of wackos :igor: Seriously, would you have stayed with a woman, who for no reason what-so-ever, moved out of your house, taking EVERYTHING and the kids, and moved across the country? My old boss did that to her husband, and he actually drove to Florida and begged her to come back. :weird:

man are mental cases.
Seriously ... when god made us, he must have made us defective ... what in the world compels us to go through this kind of torture and still asks for more? ... :)
and basically, because we are defective, we very much just filter off all the "negative" things that the other gender bring upon us. We only focus on the good things ... for example ... breasts ... breasts are good things. We live for them. Then there are ... well ... there are other things as well .... important things.
oh come on, who am I kidding here. Our male brain are tune on to one frequency and one frequency alone, the breast on their bodies. All they need to do is like ... flaunt a little bit of flesh, and we become mind dead zombies.
Lost couse ... all lost couses.
as for the kind of terror that a woman can bring? there is no boundaries ... the one from your old boss that is classic example ... here is another one, why would a man stay with the woman who have cheated on him 10 times and more. The woman had the nerve to be cought and then said that she was sorry but she was not to blame because her husband could not satisfy her "need" ... come on ... dude, wake up and smell the flowers man ... if she had her way, she will be sleeping with me too!! ... jesus h christ.
As I said in my previous postings ... man ... a flawed creation ... defective in anything that deals with breast. The bigger the size the more defective we become. There is also the occasional cases where they are addicted to the the females genders foot and butt.
So we have made sense in this particular item. We should discuss the following item. The question is man insane has already an answer and that is yes.
The most important one now is, what does woman want from man when he already gave everything that is him (and more) to be with her. Frankly, I think they don't know either.
What do you think?
PS: For all the females that I have accidently piss off .. well ... I am sorry ... but I am trying to learn from this and make the woman that I am with happy ... soo ... bare with me and just let this idiot (mua) so that he may fall deeper into the labyrinth of hell. Thank you.

You know ive been around the block a few times, what i can tell you probley wont help, it may however screw you up a little more, god knows my thoughts on women has screwed me up in the past & present, Just read some of my previous posts in this thread.
I've been with more then a few women (writing this against my will) just in my apartment complex it numbers 2, in 7 months, 20+ in 1 year. (i could probley be the forum whore) :hang:
I find the more iam with a girl(s), the more i know about myself, not in a measurable way (no pun intended) but in a way that allows me to see more of my naked self.
(and belive me i am naked around girls)
pun intended
No matter how much of a player i think iam, theres always gonna be that girl out there (happens all the time) that points out something that makes me look like a complet ass.
Yet they still stick around. ?????
That makes me think, and it may help perfect my game (so i dont look like an ass in the future) but it does more for me then it does for the girls in the long run.
Girls are the downfall of men, only for the sole reason that they make space in time for men to look at them selfs.
Woman keep me in check, not in the bad way, in away that keeps me from making myself look like a total ass clown.
So i say as long as i chase the cat, thank god for the cat.

I was just wondering. Wouldnt this thread be more suitable in the Bitchlist(no pun intended) rather than Breaking news(Since everyone knows about it) ....
woman ... WO .... MAN .... are the one thing that god created that which defies the man's logic. Yet we are all atracted to them like the bugs to the damm bug zapper. If you expect to come out alive and the same, you are kidding urself. They are meant to change our life.
Enjoy it while u still can.

No no no my friend...
this thread has lived in Breaking News almost 4 years now.
Some things are better left alone,
like women when they're having a bad hair day.
