[QUOTE=mmfan486]It's that simple?

Well, that explains ****ing everything...[/QUOTE]


sarcasm?

if it is, then: I'm just saying it helps.

if it isnt: same


Edit: Grif- Just do it playfully even, if your sitting in class and a girl catches your eye, dont look away, even turn it into a staring contest or something. I dunno. I just remember reading it here, and using it.

erock 04-11-2006 04:39 PM

I got a bit of dilemma going on. I met this girl after a show who supposedly thinks I'm cute. I won't argue with that atm, lol. So anyway I get her email. It turns out she was also at a previous show(upstairs in the dance club part of the venue) and met some of our fans. So I just realise this after I get interested in hooking up with her. She likes going to dance clubs. I like thrash metal. We share a liking for radiohead/pinkfloyd/zeppelin. But this dancing thing threw me off. what do I do about this?

Actually i should mention, this dance club above lee's palace plays **** like zeppelin and alternative (rock i assume). Do people dance to zeppelin? Yeah I guess they would... and did in the 70's. I dunno if I should respectively bow out of this attempt at a relationship.

man, in the end its just music and dont let that stop you. I dont like dance/techno much - but i dont mind it at clubs when ur drunk in all fairness. Some of it can be quiet good - so good i think about writing guitar to some of the songs.
In the clubs i got to they play some indie aswell, strokes, whitestripes or even Lynard Skynard.

Like what do you care about the music when the girl is right there? You dont have to like the music to enjoy the night. You might find yourself liking some of it even if it is rap/rnb or techno - some of that stuff is really well put together even if its not roaring metal :)

Try it out for a couple of times - dont like it - drink. :chug:

[QUOTE=Dude3]Well, they don't hate eachother. They're actually still friends and all....well, I guess we'll see how long that lasts. My mom seems to be putting all this stuff onto my dad now, blaming him for things that aren't even his fault. And my dad knows how I feel, and agrees 100%. He wants me to stay here sooo bad, just as bad as I do. My mom is the only one who wants me to go to St.Pete. She's the only one I have to convince. Too bad she's the one with the custody. jeez.[/QUOTE]

I've been put into a similar but not quite the same situation. Im 16, my parents got divorced several years ago and a year and a bit ago my dad moved to Queensland, which is a 12 hour drive to get there. I would much rather stay with my dad than my mum, but all my friends and everyone close to me is down here.So i've stayed with my mum, gladly my dad is moving back soon and ill be seeing him for the first time in over a year. :)

Anyway, my dad understands that i want to be here because my friends are here and they're important to me, and he knows i want to stay with him which is why he's moving back.

You just have to make it clear that your friends mean alot to you, and you to them. So staying where you are works out better for everyone, even your mum if she can decide to stay in the area. If her and your dad are still friends I don't see why they have to be so far away from each other.

Bring up stuff like how changing schools will mean you have to make new friends, it will cause distraction in class and chances are your grades are going to slip for a while, even if this is not the case it doesn't hurt to exaggerate the possibilties. As someone else said, compare the 2 areas and sway her to your side so she realises that moving away is not going to be healthy for you.

Good luck.

O ok, I was on the assumption you actually had to dance and stuff. I have no prob with different types of music. It's the dancing part that makes me hesistate. How in the bloody hell do you dance to lynyrd skynyrd and led zeppelin unless your doing some pulp fiction dance to Rock and Roll. Hell, If I can go there and just drink my face off and not dance thats ****in wicked. Of course she might want to dance. I guess thats the underlying issue. I ave to check one of these places out.

I'm detecting a bit of sarcasm.

The thing of it is, everything is life is a combination of theory and practice. If you don't have enough of one or the other, you're not going to succeed.

The eye contact exercise is a mental one that instills you with a feeling of personal power, authority, self-worth, and status. You realize that you are an equal to everyone you meet and you have no obligation to cast your eyes down in deference to them when first meeting them.

I'm not telling you to stare at people, only to hold eye contact. As you become more comfortable with a person, you can allow your eye contact to gradually become more relaxed because you've already asserted that you hold yourself in a (healthy) high regard and don't feel the need to seek approval from others.

Idiot Martyr 04-11-2006 06:13 PM

I remember seeing that advice posted a while back. It really worked wonders for me and it's at least worth a shot.

blag the dancing... seriously, just pretend you can dance and do it...
i don't think i can dance for sh[size=2]it[/size]... but then this girl dragged me onto a podium with her, where we could be seen by like everyone... and i blagged the dancing, and let me tell you, so long as ur not scared, you are the best dancer there...

B 04-11-2006 06:45 PM

I dance like the cool kids do. Dancing doesn't bother me at all. I dance in the middle of streets and sidewalks and even sing my own music to dance to. Fun stuff it is.

AG 04-11-2006 06:48 PM

The only dancing I suck at is the whole grinding thing, it just makes me feel stupid.


I usually go and sit down, what sort of girl grinds anywhoos.

B 04-11-2006 06:51 PM

I agree grinding sucks. Besides, that would require an actual girl >_>

ones that want there a[SIZE="2"]s[/SIZE]s on your penis. (is penis censored?)

Edit: no

ragingrob 04-11-2006 06:55 PM

I reckon it's like anything in life, do whatever you feel like, if it's stupid but you still are having a great time, carry on! If you're not enjoying whatever the hell you're doing, don't do it. Who cares what other people think really.

Special Brew 04-11-2006 06:56 PM

So this Camille chick is asking me when I am coming to London, because she wants to meet me. I don't know why this is making me nervous. I don't remember being this nervous about girls before.

I don't need advice, I just feel like whining, because I'm being a pussy, rofl.

Thanks man. I really need to do that.

Also, I'm gonna need to bring to her attention that if I were to move away(and I feel bad for saying this to her, but I need to, cause its important), that:
1) Knowing me, I would get extremely depressed. And I would constantly be like that as well.

and

2) (This is what i think I would have a very difficult time telling her) I would always have a grudge against her if she made me move away. I hate to say it, but its true. I would never think of my mom the same way, and she would end up ruining our relationship.

As confuzzled as a fusty walrus? According to your location you are in London!

B 04-11-2006 07:02 PM

There's a lot of Londons.

I'm going to one tomorrow. In Ontario.

Special Brew 04-11-2006 07:03 PM

I'm actually about thirty minutes away from London, but it's the closest recognizable town, so I use that as a location.

'Sup, my guys.

Dude3 04-11-2006 07:06 PM

I'm thinking of more and more reasons to give my mom. Anything good helps. If you have any other ideas of what I can say, please let me know. I ened to stay in this area. Honestly, I don't know what I'm gonna do if I have to move.


I had a stupid idea. Umm, not sure if its even worth it.
Do you think its worth getting as many signatures as I can from friends, saying how much they want me to stay here? That if I were to move, I have 'this' many people who will be affected. Good or bad idea?

ragingrob 04-11-2006 07:07 PM

That's a kinda yeah bad idea...sounds immatures. Or like you won't be able to make friends or something if you move.

B 04-11-2006 07:08 PM

Hi Kimmie.

I had a dramatic day. (For me anyways) Story above I suppose (and my identity as well).

Anything you can do to sway her is a good thing. She's gotta at least be impressed with the effort you put into it.

No clue. It makes me mad 'cause now no one knows who I am. Otherwise I wouldn't care.

Not that anyone outside of pop-punk besides a few people know me anyways.

And my wrist hurts. :(

Just thought I'd add that on.

Jom 04-11-2006 07:35 PM

Yeah, but there's probably more conversation-esque posts in here than there are L&R-related posts, so that's no small feat. I gave up cleaning it when I realized that those kind of posts are still going to go on, even with the community thread.

Theres a chick I really like, but I am very good friends with. I want to ask her to prom, but I don't want this to effect our friendship.
