Since I came here I have always been the one asking women out. They do not lift a finger to let you know they like you even if they do. Pampared princesses.


Maybe you're just too ugly.

No they find me attractive. It's just I always put a half-hearted effort in any relationship. Do not want to commit to the wrong person. Some day I will, but I do not know when. Maybe when I am 50?

There's point arguing with Fire_G. She will start screaming "hypocricy" when pressed harder - this is her favortite word.


I only use that word IN CONTEXT, so the word can be avoided all together if you and people like you stop behaving like HYPOCRITES. Surprised

That makes you hard to read, and women like to know where they stand.

It is not normal, but more common to hear a woman giving compliments to the guy she likes there than it is in the states. But again, it could be that they do that out of being desperate, from fear to lose the guy.

I rememeber in my younger days while still in Russia it was common for a girl to ask a guy out (or to imply in no uncertain terms this is what she wanted). Since I came here I have always been the one asking women out. They do not lift a finger to let you know they like you even if they do. Pampared princesses.


perhaps they aren't interested in you. I have been askes out by women several times. In fact two summers ago a girl came into my shop and said the only reason she was in there was because she thought I was cute. Others have said they would die for my eyes. So it happens here too and women definitely give compliments. But too a Russian woman did tell me once straight out that she had feelings for me. I guess if a woman is interested she will make it known...hell it's happened here

Here's the problem I have with some women. They never seem to want to get to know someone as a friend. They just want to rush into all that romantic stuff. Well, that wears out in about 3 weeks. And then what? If I do not want to hang out with a girl as a friend why would I want her in my life at all?

You have to be upfront about that kind of thing. It is actually a good filter, because anyone who says no about being friends first, is obviously only interested in sex. Thats the trouble, there are more people who are having sex in relationships, than are not having sex, so when you come along and say "no sex", they act like you are the one who is weird. Sorry to sound like a doom sayer, but you might have to look within your Christian community for that, because they are more familiar with the whole "morality issue".

My boyfriend is not a deviant! I was talking hypothetically because you said batman was paying me a compliment, which was not a compliment, but an insult. So I told you what I would do in that circumstance. Smile

Oh no...I was referring to the girl in the avatar and I would never disrespect you like that...not since you had previously paid me a compliment...I actually think you are one of the cooler people on the forum and your response crack me up. And no disrespect to your man either...I just though it fitting to mention the electrical engineer...and I honestly didn't think him to be real. Anyways fire g my apologies Crying or Very sad

I took the avatar down because it was/is offensive to women and I just found it so funny that it was actually created
