[QUOTE=JenkinsJ;34461492]There's this thing called Season Affective Disorder that makes people sad in the winter. They have treatments like artificial sunlight LED lamps that perk people up a bit, so it is a thing. My old psychology teacher had it. I don't think everyone has it though, like how everyone seems to self diagnose themselves with aspergers and things like that. But I think most of us get a bit down in the winter, cos everything outside looks dull and shit and cold.[/QUOTE] Soooo... In a nutshell you want Mon to carry lamps with him and say "WE NEEDS THE LIGHT, IT SUSTAINS US"?

[QUOTE=1chains1;34461613]Soooo... In a nutshell you want Mon to carry lamps with him and say "WE NEEDS THE LIGHT, IT SUSTAINS US"?[/QUOTE] You just need to put him under a bright light for an hour or two every day, otherwise he will wilt.

[QUOTE=1chains1;34461613]Soooo... In a nutshell you want Mon to carry lamps with him and say "WE NEEDS THE LIGHT, IT SUSTAINS US"?[/QUOTE] If I remember right (this was like, 4 years ago) it has to light similar to daylight, not the horrid yellow light from a lightbulb. And I think there was some other shit you could do, but I'm not the person to ask, I barely remember any psychology. That being said though, I would indeed like Mon to carry lamps around with him shouting "WE NEEDS THE LIGHT, IT SUSTAINS US" cos that would be pure 100% bantertastic.

[QUOTE=WiltheKid;34460298]I've been simply laughing, or tossing back objects that she throws at me. This sounds a bit odd, doesn't it?[/QUOTE] Sounds like she wants attention.

[QUOTE=WiltheKid;34460298]I've been simply laughing, or tossing back objects that she throws at me. This sounds a bit odd, doesn't it?[/QUOTE] She's just being playful having a laugh, there's no need to overthink it, throwing things back is fine. Just have fun, that's the point of having fun isn't it? There's not a particular correct response, just respond the way you would respond. I mean you are you. What? I've started speaking in riddles now. You know what I mean though.

That is how I learned about it.

Yeah, my mum moved from Africa where it never rains, to a remote Scottish island where it rains almost every day. She definitely has SAD.

Still, even with that condition, you have to take some responsibility in a relationship If for instance you have anger issues, you don't go "Oh i have a condition" and proceed to beat the shit out of your girlfriend, in this analogy, it isn't an excuse and if you get sad and dump your girlfriend it isn't an excuse either. i'm sure there's some measures you can take if you suffer from.. weather conditions, like anti-depressants etc, maybe smoke some pot in the winter i dunno

Aww shit. I'm like 79% certain this guy I know likes the same girl as me. Time to step it the fuck up and ask her out.

[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;34462945]Aww shit. I'm like 79% certain this guy I know likes the same girl as me. Time to step it the fuck up and ask her out.[/QUOTE] the real question is why didn't you ask her sooner? :v:

I hadn't decided I was going to until 2 days ago

i don't think it's just SAD for me, because i can be the most awesome sociable person on the planet one week, then come into the next one like someone shot my mother i don't know why this happens, but it's no fun trying to predict how your mood will affect you next week - and it's almost completely random - save for its prevalence around winter (which i guess you can tie with SAD)

[QUOTE=DrBreen;34464696]so you had a crush on said girl, but you were considering [i]not[/i] asking out? or is it more complicated? or am i wrong[/QUOTE] No, I didn't have a crush on said girl until saturday. I had a sort of vague interest. Please stop trying to be omniscient love guru okay thanks

She said yes! I now have a problem though. We decided on Saturday since she's busy tomorrow. Do I still talk to her like I have been now until then? Also: I know people say "talk about what interests you!" on the date, but how exactly do I bring those topics up? I can hardly go "so yeah what are your views on the new Space Marine models!?" or "yo what do you think of the carve tool in hammer?"

Hey Facepunch, I never ever thought I would be asking for advice especially if you have ever read the confessionals but the stories on here are amazing. Ok, so I really really like this girl, like BADLY. She had a party Saturday and we have a thing so it was me her my friend and his girlfriend. We hit it off, made out with no shirts on her bed, rolled onto the ground. You know, the fun shit. Well that was two days ago and the next day I texted her and she was acting a little weird, she had told me prior to Saturday's party she was on her period so I didn't think anything of it. Anyways, today I have noticed she is acting VERY weird, like she doesn't even respond. I finally got her to talk to me and she says she is just annoyed by everybody and I asked if I could do anything to help and she said no. I need some nice, cute ideas on how to make her feel better. Please keep in mind though she talks to A LOT of guys so I can't really just wait it out, I have to give it 110% just to get her. I know I can keep her because I am not like those douchebags who date for a day, fuck her, then leave her. I am better than that. Help FP?

If she's on her period, you should probably just stay away. Shit could get rough. Like this one time at work this girl started complaining to me (Complaining to your male co-worker about your period, wtf?) about her period and I just ignored her.
