Relationship status

[A24 5,156]

You gotta talk to her, break the ice. But first, when you see her, look into her eyes and smile (not too shy, not too confident either) so she knows you've noticed her. Or have you already passed that stage?

[Datameister 2,586]

Stop being so picky then

If only it were that simple.

Better yet, if only more brains were built to my standards!

[Josh500 1,620]

I have been happily in a relationship for about 2 1/2 years now... though I think neither of us are considering marriage yet.

I'd love to get married and have at least one kid by the time I am 35, though (I am 29 now).

I don't wanna be single when I am 40...

[Maglorfin 219]

I'm also in a very happy relationship, close to 3 years now, we've been living together in a very nice apartment for more than a year now and might consider getting married next year.

[Naïve Old Fart 13,023]

Engaged 11.11.11.

To be married next month.

Very well done to you, and if I my, and in true maritime tradition, I wish you both clear horizions. Make it so!

Let a woman in your life and your serenity is through, she'll redecorate your home, from the cellar to the dome, and then go on to the enthralling fun of overhauling you...

Let a woman in your life, and you're up against a wall, make a plan and you will find, that she has something else in mind, and so rather than do either you do something else that neither likes at all.

Ha-ha-ha! Freakin' brliilant!!!!!

[hornist 1,261]

Congrats Hornist

Very well done to you, and if I my, and in true maritime tradition, I wish you both clear horizions. Make it so!

Thanks!

I'm sure it is going to be very stormy voyage but still enchanting one...

[Jay 46,244]

I have a girlfriend that I met last Dec 3rd, began dating this Jan 7, and she moved into my condo with me on July 1. I'm 32 she's 25, no plans to get married any time soon.

"Young women are good for the soul"- Mark Olivarez

[Jay 46,244]

He ain't kidding

[Trent B 354]

My woman is 2 years older than I am but she keeps me on my toes in a good way though!

[Koray Savas 2,260]

Somewhere between the first two options.

Ditto

I'm a big Batman fan, but it's something I keep totally to myself in any conversation. I do have quite a few musician friends (specially classical musicians), so we tend to talk a lot about orchestral film music and classical music

I'm also somewhere in between. Not actively looking, but wouldn't turn someone away if something happened. I don't consider myself picky, but I might be just like Datameister. All the good ones are already taken.

Gaming is my only vice. I play a lot. Also big on movies and scores, but everyone loves movies and my taste in music isn't limited to scores. So those aren't issues when it comes to social relationships.

[Trent B 354]

Koray my friend you're still young and got plenty of time. Hell I didn't really start dating until after a year after high school. I was too much of a chicken shit to ask a girl out in high school.

When the right one comes along you'll know it. Same thing can be said for you as well Joe (Data).

You gotta talk to her, break the ice. But first, when you see her, look into her eyes and smile (not too shy, not too confident either) so she knows you've noticed her. Or have you already passed that stage?

I'm around that stage now, but that's about it.

[Josh500 1,620]

What does "it's complicated" mean here, anyway?

I mean, either you're single or not...

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,387]

You obviously never been in a complicated relationship....

[Josh500 1,620]

Sure, but it's still either single or not...

[Jay 46,244]

Not true

[Nemesis 301]

Next year my wife and me are having our 10th wedding day.

We have a 7 year old autistic son. We love him more than anything else, but sometimes it really is hard to handle with this.

[King Mark 3,975]

I'm sure it's not easy

[Koray Savas 2,260]

Sure, but it's still either single or not...

Ever heard of a friend with benefits?

[Henry B 51]

I'm around that stage now, but that's about it.

You really have to go for it. Always. There is never a reason to exercise caution and self doubt when it comes to these things. Otherwise you'll probably never find the relationship you want.

[King Mark 3,975]

Can you still let a girl know your interested even if she has a boyfriend?

[Neimoidian 15]

Sure, but it's still either single or not...

Ever heard of a friend with benefits?

Only heard. Like yeti or Bigfoot.

[King Mark 3,975]

yeah me too, like the CoS Recording Sessions

[Quintus 6,496]

Can you still let a girl know your interested even if she has a boyfriend?

Depends how you go about it.

[King Mark 3,975]

well that's the thing

Like Williams OST releases I always expect the worst case scenario . In this case that she'll take some kind of offense, immediately tell her boyfriend and a permanently awkward situation ensues .PS boyfriend is not my friend

[Neimoidian 15]

If I find her unhappy with her relationship, I show such girl my interest and try to show my value. If not, then I move along.

[King Mark 3,975]

I think it's ok to be alone too, except during those moments of mini freak outs where you get really lonely and really would like to be with someone .But it passes

[Neimoidian 15]

I meant girl's relationship with another guy.

But I agree, there's nothing wrong in being alone, although I'm quite fed up with it at the moment, so I decided to help my luck with on-line means.

[Jay 46,244]

Don't tell the girl you like her. Just be her friend, suggest hanging out with the 2 of them together (something easy like drinks). Maybe the guy will tag along, maybe he won't.

If she has something good going with the boyfriend she's not gonna give a crap if you like her or not. But if things don't work out between them she won't be interested in you if you were hitting on her while she was with him. You just want to be that nice guy that is around that she can talk to if that happens.

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,387]

I'm sorry Jason, but what you are advising is immoral and disgusting.

You don't come between two people, hoping maybe they don't have such a good relationship. It's dishonest.

[Jay 46,244]

What the hell are you talking about? I agree with you completely!

KM wanted to tell the girl he liked her- I told him NOT to do that, and just be their friend.

Did you somehow forget how to read english?

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,387]

You should NEVER befriend a girl that you have romantic feelings for.

You are being dishonest if you do...

[Jay 46,244]

Well I didn't say become close pals, I just meant get on friendly terms instead of being "that guy in our building who is always looking at me but never talks to me"

[Koray Savas 2,260]

Don't tell the girl you like her. Just be her friend, suggest hanging out with the 2 of them together (something easy like drinks). Maybe the guy will tag along, maybe he won't.

If she has something good going with the boyfriend she's not gonna give a crap if you like her or not. But if things don't work out between them she won't be interested in you if you were hitting on her while she was with him. You just want to be that nice guy that is around that she can talk to if that happens.

That's kinda the situation I have. It sucks when the boyfriend is a cool guy too.

My problem is escalating the relationship from friends to more than. If it doesn't work out, then the friendship that was turns awkward, especially if you work with the person and see them often.

[Jay 46,244]

The problem is that if you really like the girl, the more time you spend with her the more you will like her, and the more it will hurt as time goes on. I've been there MANY times.

Its hard finding the line between "being around" and "being a good friend".

Maybe Stefan is right and its best to just forget about her and only approach if it appears the BF and her broke up. The problem with that is: How would he know?

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,387]

I just always had this one rule, never ever pursue in any way someone who is in a relationship. If you are lucky, you only disappoint yourself. If you aren't, you can hurt others.

[Quintus 6,496]

But where's the fun in that?

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,387]

I speak from experience....

[Quintus 6,496]

And you reckon I don't?

I'm not saying you're wrong, btw.

[Jeff 10]

I just always had this one rule, never ever pursue in any way someone who is in a relationship. If you are lucky, you only disappoint yourself. If you aren't, you can hurt others.

It's probably a good rule, but "morally" speaking I don't think it's wrong unless the person is married or in a similarly long-term committed relationship, particularly if they have children. You have to be free to pursue someone who are interested in to some degree.

[Quintus 6,496]

You know, honestly speaking, I've been a bit of a cunt where morals are concerned with... sex with women. Yeah, I have been a guy who wasn't very nice about people's feelings, but that's life.

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,387]

When you have feelings for someone you are not able to judge if they are in a happy relationship. At least I'm not.

And people who go after men or women in long relationship's or who are married shot be shot in the face.

You know, honestly speaking, I've been a bit of a cunt where morals are concerned with... sex with women,

Oh you would fuck anything, we know that. Preferably against some bins, with their 2 year old watching....

[Quintus 6,496]

No need to be a sicko, Stefan.

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,387]

Seen enough Brit porn to know what you like.

[Quintus 6,496]

You have? That stuff seems rare, comparatively speaking. You must have googled well to find it. But then again, your "Britishness" always shines through on the board

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,387]

I have my haunts...

[Quintus 6,496]

You ever noticed how "unpolished" the birds are in British porn? That's because all the really beautiful girls are way too classy to ever consider such a disgraceful career, opting instead for fashion modelling and... Hollyoaks.

It's amazing how many drop dead gorgeous Eastern Europeans drop their knickers at the drop of a hat in front of a video camera.

[King Mark 3,975]

Jason's stand seems sensible. Just be a nice guy for now who shows an interested disposition while not hitting on her . And he's right I can't see her more than I have to , I feel like crap afterwards.

I would not try purposefully to break up a relationship

[A24 5,156]

You gotta talk to her, break the ice. But first, when you see her, look into her eyes and smile (not too shy, not too confident either) so she knows you've noticed her. Or have you already passed that stage?

I'm around that stage now, but that's about it.

Not that I'm an expert, Chaac, but it's my belief that women are the real hunters out there, not men. If she's interested, the only thing we have to do is to break to ice, the rest is in their hands.
