Just randomly got my girlfriend a bouquet of flowers!
Stupid question but...should I take the wrapper thing off to give it to her? Or just give her the flowers itself...?
I'm guessing you mean the wrapper around the stems, if so then keep them on
A flatmate's sister (17) came over at the weekend, a few people were free so we ended up going out and such blah blah. Next day some other flatmate's ask why i didn't get with her when i had the chance.
Really? Cause that just seems weird to me, A) getting with a friends sister and B) she's 2 years younger than me.
This isn't just me right?
ehh, 17 and 19 is acceptable, but depending on your relationship it could be weird to get with a friend's sister

i don't know about getting with your friend's sister, but every guy i've dated since i was 15 was at least two years older than me. it depends on maturity levels

You will probably be able to relate to this pretty well too. I could, it was a real help.

I have one more great website for you, when I was reading this article I felt like I was being read like a book, it was super surreal. It made me get my act together and realise sitting for a great girl to come to come along was never going to happen and that I had to get a move on myself.

I really strongly suggest looking through the other articles. It is without a doubt one of the best websites I have ever discovered.

If you don't want to read the physics one make sure you read the succeed socially link, I think a lot of people could be helped by reading the stuff that guy has put together.[/QUOTE]
That succeed socialy article... Good god, it's like they went into my head and dissected it piece by piece.
I'm 20, never had a girlfriend, never had sex, and never even [I]kissed[/I] a girl and I do almost ALL those things mentioned. The one difference is that I'm not too shy these days and I do, for the best part, like how I am and have aims I want to achieve.
But I do get these Romanticised fantasies of "The perfect girl just bumping into me out of the blue" and taking light interaction from a girl I've just met as an active interest in me.
It's almost scary.

At the [I]very least[/I] remove the price tag and possibly the branding as well if present.
During highschool years you could say I was a "ladies man."
I knew a lot of very beautiful women and had a great time. But now it's been two years since senior year and I still have those women on my FB feed.
I say, it's really weird/awkward to see them now. Such pretty virgins that are now wrecked. One never got over her smoking habit and has gained some weight. One of them used to be a straight-A student, now gets laid in college. One of them turned hipster. One of them always posts almost, "come be my prince" sort of help me pictures on FB. One of them is so desperate for a guy she posts about her nightly sex escapes. "lol just woke up from an all nighter blawwww"
I dont know, I guess you can't change anyone but yourself. You also can't rely on a pretty face alone

i had a friend in 9th grade who was like the last girl you mentioned. she once posted a facebook status indirectly stating that she had slept with a college student in his dorm (she was 14 or 15). i commented on it and some feminist chick got on my ass for me trying to infringe on her freedom of speech or something..
uh who cares what these girls do after high school?
tbh its really creepy that you think of them as "such pretty virgins that are now wrecked" as if they're somehow making the wrong decisions just because they aren't staying "pure and innocent"
and are you saying the straight A student shouldn't be having sex in college?? that makes no sense, why would you want to control these girls lives like that?
having sex in college or being a hipster isn't throwing your life away you'd have to be really dumb to think that
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;36377957]I think he's sayings its sad to see them kinda throw their lives away in a sense.[/QUOTE]
nobody in his descriptions threw their lives away in any sense of the word, he's just stroking his ego by making petty attacks on borderline strangers that he went to high school with

"such pretty virgins that are now wrecked" is a really weird thing to say, i can't think of a fancy word to describe it so i'll just say creepy
Its hard to describe it if you haven't experienced it or met them in person. I worded it incorrectly. Perhaps I was indeed being sex biased.
I was pretty close to some of them and seeing them, yeah, throw their lives and dignity away is awkward/weird to me. A hipster, changing your course and ambition to drugs and alcohol. Posting lots of provocative and inviting pictures when she was once quite the shining athlete. Having sex with multiple partners then posting about it and changing statuses every week on FB. "Virgins" I meant to one of my friends who always told me she would only find one guy, only to be partying and going hard
I mean, sure, they can do whatever they want. It's just really weird to me how dramatic a change your once close friends/girlfriends undergo. People age and mature, it's their choice to grow into whatever they wish is what I'm trying to get at. Lack of class in our youth?

Yes. Meeting them years later only for them to be a completely different, (negative influenced) person is just weird/awkward. The feeling is just icky. It's like, "you wish you did something or atleast influenced them positively earlier in life and maybe you could have changed them" kinda feeling
if you ever have sex you are basically throwing you academic life away.
this makes perfect sense
I like the how Facepunch professionally took what he said completely off course. Repeatedly.

You think in weird ways.
Dumb and cowardly, but how do I ask a girl to a first date? I've liked her since last year now, and am sick of sitting there and wishing, I acually wanna have a relationship. Any advice how to ask her, get over fears and where to take her, etc.

Don't think about what your going to do if she says yes. I know its hard but thinking about what you plan on doing on the first date will make you far less likely to have the courage to ask her out. Just walk up to her and ask if she wants to meet up with you on the weekend. If she has your number already just tell her to text you if not hand her your number when you do it. She will probably get an idea of what you want. I found I was only able to do that with a ton of hyping myself up. Feels great afterwords even if you get nowhere with it.
i dunno, i think it'd be good to have some idea of where you might like to take her
otherwise if she says "sure, what did you have in mind?" you could panic/get flustered
Check through this website too, it should help you get over some fears if you find the right article.

Ok that is a fair point but don't over complicate it and get ahead of yourself. Otherwise you may find your thinking so far ahead about your plans together you don't want to spoil the thoughts your having with the chance of her saying no.
[editline]18th June 2012[/editline]
Sounds reckless and stupid but I think a "Whats the worst that could happen / Who even gives a fuck if this goes wrong" is a good attitude to take. Makes you just do things without, thinking so much, which for stuff like this is normally a good idea.

no seith this isn't a normal way to feel!

Well, decided to call it quits on the girl I was going for. She started to pick up on some of my issues and I think it scared both of us. I texted her this morning letting her know I was better off alone, and she replied 'Joe just go away run little puppy run run run!'
At least I got a laugh out of all of it :v:
I really need some advice about this situation I'm facing but everytime I post anything about love, I get judged about it.

Just post it, whats the worst that can happen, some people on an internet forum will slate you.
You don't get judged, you get an honest opinion from people who don't know you and so have no reason to say anything apart from the non-sugarcoated truth.
aka post away
people who are having sex with anyone other than me basically are throwing their lives away

im not making fun of that guy im being serious right now
Being social doesn't detriment from any studies, i find it helps having a break. It's just the quality of the studying that you need to focus on. Quality over quantity, in anything in life, is better.
That being said i studied so hard for my first year exams and have done shit in one of them :( it's unbelievably depressing.
To quote radiohead : you try your best, your best is good enough.
