Just restarted my Facebook for college and business purposes. I have a voice in the back of my head telling me that this is an enormous mistake, butt-fuck it! :v:
why would it be an enormous mistake? people can get so extreme over facebook. it's just social networking. if you want to be involved in, get involved, and if you don't want to then you don't have to. but it's nothing like a big deal unless you make it one.
[QUOTE=Autumn;36075438]if the animal is suffering then the vet would normally advise putting down, which it doesn't seem like they have done. kidney problems are (unfortunately) one of the biggest health issues with cats, and if this is his time to go then it's best just to let it run its course.[/QUOTE] Well Idk. If he's dying it's unlikely to be painless or pleasant, certainly not from the description he gave of the cat's condition now. If it was me in that situation, I would opt for the euthanasia, that's all.
my brother has kidney disease, but he's an ignorant prick so that should soften the blow when he dies.
So two friends and I finally released our first EP tonight. If you're into electronic/bass music, feel free to [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1186192?p=36077317"]check it out[/URL]. /shameless self-promotion
[QUOTE=ewitwins;36075784]Just restarted my Facebook for college and business purposes. I have a voice in the back of my head telling me that this is an enormous mistake, butt-fuck it! :v:[/QUOTE] Honestly, social networks are awesome. During highschool it was more of a social darwinism kind of thing where everyone showed off how cool they were. But now I am at the university and it proves so useful. We have organized some groups which share documents, articles, subject matters and advice. It saved my ass a few times. Also some older university students give some great general advice about the studies. Also organizing parties is a lot easier and you are always informed what is going on in town. Besides being able to be in touch with your pals is great. In the end you still can choose how you want to be involved in all this, you are not being forced to use it excessivly and play farmville or some other crap.
in the past few months I have been using facebook more and more often its very useful for just organizing a group of people or event or something and its nice to be able to catch up on something that someone did without explicitly talking to them or being there
IMO most people I see who don't like facebook are antisocial people who wouldn't benefit from it anyway i.e. "I only have 30 friends on my facebook and nothing interesting is happening. i'll bitch on facepunch about privacy and why facebook is bad" jo is right, having the ability to schedule shit through facebook is SO convenient.
So I'm with this girl for just a week now. And she is already losing interests in me and I have bad feelings about it. It's because I'm so fucking shy and can't be myself when I'm with her. Do you guys have any advice for me? Also hi
How do you know that shes losing interest? Just relax and be yourself around her. Don't over think things and focusing on her when you're around her is one way to do that. If shes with you then shes attracted to you in someway already so there's not much to worry about.

I feel like opening up about my current situation. A sense of change in the wind. Regarding the girl I have a crush on. So a few weeks ago things were still quite average. No much one on one talk with her, apart from the times of both of us being stuck in the mumble channel because of the inability to go to sleep when we should. Then there was the day before she was going on a one week trip with the church community she is part off, I join her and her boyfriends company at his place for a cup of coffee. Conversation goes on as it usually has in the company of us three, then at one point I talk with her about her upcoming trip just us two as her bf is busy having an argument with his stepdad. Why I mentioned this was how she was, withouth a lot of eye-contact not the most confident posture. A week passes she comes back, all the fellows are one of the guys house, we're playing Crash Team Racing and watching Scooby Doo waiting for her to come. So she comes and joins our activities, then the hockey game starts, so we just spark up conversation over the whole lenght of the game. Following day the boyfriend asks me to meet him at the gas station to buy him some smokes. I get him his rolls of poison and then he calls the girl who is studying, we decide to head over there and he asks me to do the imitation of the creep guy from Leo & Satan "I'll be there in fiiiive minutes *slurrrp*". So at there we have some good laughs in conversation, but I noticed getting a lot of stares from her, even when the two lovebirds are busy pinching eachother she begs me to show a painful pinching tecnique that I've mentioned to her about, even tough I refused at first, due to how easily she gets bruises. Time goes on, we have more one on one chats and co-op gameplay (MW2 Spec Ops). And now this week, had the near-midning suprise visit, where I was informed by the bf that it was her idea. Today I even got a call from her, something which hasn't happened in a couple of months, last call wasn't either very comfortable one in the slightest. I do believe that the information of the subject matter of building affection and wooing someone's girlfriend propably has played a part in this. [B]TL;TR:[/B] Having the intentions of wooing someone's girlfriend and feeling like I've made progress.
She said yes. Best feeling in the world.
She'll let you rainbow kiss her? Nice one man
[QUOTE=Sunday_Roast;36081773][B]TL;TR:[/B] Having the intentions of wooing someone's girlfriend and feeling like I've made progress.[/QUOTE] uh, great. are we meant to pat you on the back now?
literally nothing in that story seemed like "progress" in the slightest its how i act with my friends and intentionally going after a girl who isnt single is dumb [editline]24th May 2012[/editline] you havent been listening to anything weve been telling you over the past few weeks stop treating every social interaction as some sort of victory or you will never build any natural relationships
Seriously, Roast, stop doing this shit. You're overanalysing [b]every single little thing[/b]. Every post you've made in here is about how you were doing this and this and you notice that she did some little thing and you start analysing it like it was some big hint when in reality it probably didn't mean anything. Not only that but it's also creepy as fuck
That's the kind of slap that I needed. Thank you. I allready felt like I was overanalysing, but for some reason I feel the need to make someone point out for to make me stop doing it.
nobody wakes up thinking, "i do believe I shall cheat today," and nobody says "I will make that woman cheat on her man with me!!" those types of things just happen in the heat of a moment and that's usually how long they last read the great gatsby ffs

What's the best way to meet someone with the intention of looking to get back into dating? Is it just a matter of just waiting until you meet someone interesting and ask them out, or are there situations you can put yourself into? I'm single now so I've just kind of been thinking about it and places I can go to meet new people. I'll be going to Uni soon in several months, I'm guessing it'll be much easier there?
at uni you will meet lots of people, any many are likely to be in a similar situation to you so if you can hold out until then, i wouldn't worry about it too much just now!

Why is it so good? Anything informative, rather than an "oh so mysterious" plot?
