I was hailing a cab and a guy in a doofy hat waved back at me, as if I was waving to him. His face immediately fell when he realized I wasn't waving at him and i think he could tell I was thinking "I'm not waving at you, John Mayer, you weirdo."

I have the opposite. I only get interested in relationships every 6 years. It's my Pon-Farr. I go out and get a man, it lasts as long as it lasts, then 6 years go by where I'm not lonely or feel like I'm missing out or anything.

no? did you even read this article?

your comment would be relevant if anyone was suggesting either throwing out the whole institution or requiring perfection. "everybody is flawed" is meaningless. so we do nothing? does that outlook apply to everything? well there are people who are starving, so let's not try to cure cancer. well there are people who

live a little! On virgin hair,Manic Panic will wash out in a month.

and we are all douchey when young; i get it. but the gall of telling a story in the face of someone who knows it was not true (and let's be honest, the first time, it stung to hear; but brother i JUST did that for you, have some pity, jeez), and re-write history to such a degree that the same story can be repeated

no, he insisted he had never been asked out; never even approached. when reminded that view was verifiably untrue, he made excuses and kept insisting the falsehood. It's not judgement; it's recounting.

yes! I was not discouraged either and it worked out well a couple times!

indeed, i let it go the second time because i realize reality and people's narratives about reality rarely align perfectly. he was a passive dude, and frankly, lazy, and was scared of rejection, so his brilliant idea of "they should ask ME out" is not going to be dissuaded in any way when pointed out that one time,

the rule i heard was, if it is a family jewel it gets returned no matter who does the breaking up. it's when it's new that it's debatable to keep it if you were dumped but return it if you are the dumper.

the common thread i see is some men who think all women want the same thing, a thing a movie told them women want, and chose to not see those women as individuals who may have opinions and preferences that they should respect. other people are not prizes to be won. if someone likes you, you can sense it and feel it

i asked a guy out who turned me down. a very short time later, he was with a bunch of mutual friends, espousing how no women ever asked men out; that the dating world was so unfair because the onus was all on the men; that in his life he had never been approached by a woman.

there could be a separate article about romantic gestures that worked, because of pure luck or because the gesturer knew his target well enough to know what would work and what would not. the attractiveness of the gesturer is not the only deciding factor. because you see, the women involved, are all different. and

if it's a sib, uhmmmm no.

i have a problem with this image.

also sexist. does someone believe the genders are unequal? that person is sexist.

exactly. they are so focused on the differences that they ignore any commonality; we're STILL not human, because we're so perfect and can make babies and milk and let's talk about boobies please.

Benevolent Sexist

i truly thought it was a chinese brand for about a solid year when they first hit the streets.

i don't "get" either brand. someone explain their thing? what's the hook.
