I just said that I do the approaching, so I don't know how to help you there. I mean, maybe I'm creepy, but I do my best not to be.

I agree! I hate the wondering, too. Why not just know? Also, A+ on high school you! That sounds like a big win in my book! :D

I really hate the idea that women shouldn't make the first move, because it'll scare him, set the wrong balance of feminine/masculine energies, or that you should make him "chase you" or whatever weird "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus" bullshit. If you really don't want to make the first move, fine, that's…

I first tried a flat white when I visited friends in Australia, and honestly, it tastes a lot like a cappuccino to me. I thought it was just fine, but I'd never heard of it before. I just assumed that was because I didn't drink a lot of coffee, or that I'm not from a very cosmopolitan place, so we just didn't have…

I hate all the words I have for this. Cuddling, snuggling, all of it is just gross.

I think the suggestions of how to make weddings more kid-friendly kinda make it clear that many weddings aren't appropriate events to bring very young children. You can work to make them that way if you really want to (since it's your wedding and all, and if you want bounce houses and juice boxes and coloring books,…

Aww, thank you! :D

On the flip side, I've never really been invited to any family weddings, other than my mom's (I wasn't invited to my dad's, but no one was) and my sister's. I wasn't really offended. I see the photos, offer my congratulations, and don't really think much of it. I think a lot of it depends on your family dynamics…

I say whatever works best for the people in question, but for me personally, no, if I ever got married (and I don't particularly plan to), I wouldn't want children there. Primarily, it's a cost/size issue (I would not want to have a large wedding or even a wedding at all, but this is a thought exercise), but…

Thank you. I've tried to keep the past in the past, but it sometimes just doesn't want to stay there! Indeed, there have been a lot of discussions, but I'm not always successful at getting my point across.

I can completely understand that, especially the feeling triggered, not wanting sex, doing it for maintenance, then feeling even worse. I think that for people who have experienced sexual violence, sex can take on a very different meaning, and for those who haven't experienced it, it's tough to get. For my current…

I have and it was not successful. The dating pool is just too small to find people that I click with. I'm also not asexual, so that's a big turnoff to a lot of people, and I admit that I've had a few arguments about whether or not I'm harming the ace community by talking the way I do (as you might or might not know,…

I have, but I really don't like weed's effects on me. It's not the alcohol itself that makes me sick, it's me :) But thank you for the suggestion! I've heard other people with similar problems that prefer weed, and it can be a great tool, but it just makes me feel weird and squiggly.

It's something I struggle with. I can understand that someone would feel rejected, unwanted, or frustrated with a sexual relationship with me. I've definitely tried those things, but usually, I sort of need alcohol anyway, and I try not to drink so much (I have middling success with this). I want to be open to…

The idea of "maintenance sex" makes me feel resentful.

The idea of "maintenance sex" makes me feel resentful.

And sensible pant-size measurements, too!

I've definitely felt that way! Some of the "sweaters" I inherited from a friend are paper-thin! Like, you would have to wear something underneath, because they're so flimsy, they're pretty much translucent. Women's t-shirts are really the worst for it, though, unless you're buying them in bulk, like with Hanes or…

Part of it for me is wearing women's clothing, which is often thinner and less warm than the men's equivalent. For example, look at fashionable women's sweaters versus men's. A typical women's sweater will be more drapey and form-fitting (and lacy as well), whereas a man's is roomier and thicker (and generally has…

Schwimmer did a great job with the physical comedy and I appreciate his contorted facial expressions a lot, but damn Ross is an asshole.
