Hey guys,
Just thought I'd share this short series I saw recently, TATAMI GALAXY. Someone might've already talked about this but... w/e!
It's about student life, love, friendship and taking decisions in life. It's truly an original anime. The narrative, the pacing, the concept, I've never seen anything quite like it.
The story is basically about a guy in college figuring out his life and chasing the happy life. Every episode is one of the many possibilities his college could've been like. So it almost starts back at square one at each episode but with a different story unfolding. Very cool stuff.
Very smart, funny and totally relatable (to me at least). I felt like it changed my life for two weeks after watching the series lol.
Link to the first episode: -
I'm sorry for the long entry, but what do you guys think? My first question is... Is it safe for me to assume that he's interested? If that is correct, do you think the height difference is stopping him from getting closer? What are your opinions on a taller girl with a shorter guy? And what should I do??? I am so confused... You can tell I haven't been in many relationships before haha. ^^
First off you should check company policy on work relationships. I know girls want guys to be taller and, as a guy, I want the same. But that shouldn't stop you at all like you said. The height difference isn't stopping him, it's what you said about it that is. He doesn't know that you think his height and age diff is okay. If you want to go out with him you got put out signs of yourself that you are interested in a relationship and hope he picks up. Currently, you guys might just be good work friends. He might just be really friendly or he's interested but don't want to get rejected because of what you said.
Help or any thoughts, guys?
Maybe he's a playa?! But most likely, from what you said, he's interested in you. Being always available and finding excuse to spend time with you...
-
This is just a general question to the guys, so the more replies...the better.
Will you say "good night sweetie" to just any girl? Or is it reserved for someone you have feelings for?
Thanks
I'd say it to a girl that's my friend if we usually tease each other alot or my girlfriend but not any girl. Depending on context it can be a romantic thing to say or just something casually said.
would you be mad/bummed if your girlfriend went out with her and yours group of friends and didnt tell you about it?
Yes.
Technically it's one question and then spin-off questions:
If you are dating a girl who has had no relationship experiences in the past, could you tell? (and like how?)
Would this change something for you? (ie:// it makes you take more initiatives)
Being that girl's first boyfriend, does it make you happier than if you were her "nth" boyfriend?
I wouldn't be able to tell... but I'd assume a girl would've had previous bfs by her attitude and personality.
Frankly, I'd be lying if I said it doesn't affect my perception of her. It does. I don't understand how it would make me take more initiatives...
Yes in the sense that I would be the first and no because she might not know what she wants in a bf from lack of experience.
is it disrespectful for your bf to fall asleep while watching a movie with you??? is it wrong to tell him to just say sorry?
his excuse was that he did i unintentionally, his body just shuts down and not his fault. seriously?
Boring movie. To me (a guy), it's not a big deal. If I'd fall asleep during a good movie, I'd be pretty pissed so yeah it's unintentional.
would guys stare if they found a girl scary or something?
i dont want to make a big deal out of this and i don't want it getting my hopes up~
Yes. if she has something on her face i'd stare at her too. if she's cute id steal glances at her. Maybe he doesn't know how to approach you (as a person) and that makes him "shy" around you since you, yourself, are shy towards boys.
you know how people say when a guy teases you he likes you?
well theres this kid who always does this to me like stranger,freakk,etc. and one day i came back to school from being sick and he tells me no to wear my hair up
or when i i dont talk to him at the end of school he'll ask me why i diddnt or get mad at me n stuff.....and in class he always looks at me...i always catch him looking at me
hes single i just wanna kknow why he hast or if you have a clue of why he hast made a move yet ...
He's weird? hoping you make a move? show some sign of interest? Maybe he just likes mocking you? is it only towards you that he does this? Yeah...
How would you know if a guy is serious about a girl?
He told me he is. But then again, words are just words. He had been introducing me to his female friends, so, just as he have said, I would know if I saw him with another.
You don't. He can act a way with you and totally different once alone. The person that would know best is you or people in his entourage. You, because you're his gf and you know his personality best and all. Entourage because maybe they know him longer and know his background/past relationships/etc.
My crush is a shy guy and we've been talking online. At school when I see him it's usually me who starts a conversation. When I talk to him he just looks very nervous and akward. It makes me feel like I'm annoying him (?). But during lunchbreak I see him lookin at me and when I look back he will look away.
So today at lunchbreak I was hanging out with his friends and we were having lots of fun. Later on he just came and stood next to his friends and than left without a word! So later on I meet him on the hallway and decided to talk to him. He didn't say much and tried to avoid by walking faster! I don't know what he is thinking? I really want to make an effort, but he's not giving me the chance to get to know him and now behaving this way. Why is he avoiding me?
Maybe he was mad, feeling jealous because you seemed close to his friends? That's my take. it's a misunderstanding on his part, you don't really have to excuse yourself for anything but maybe make him feel more important?
Quick question for the guys:
Would you listen to relationship advice given by a girl you barely know (an acquaintance)? And if you do listen, is it because you're interested in her or something else?
Yes I'd listen and judge if its good or bad advice. If I listen, it's probably because I'm desperate for advice and not because I'm interested in the girl giving it.
I'm not sure if someone asked this before -
1. Would men want to be intimate with / have sex with their girlfriends a year into the relationship?
2. I wonder what would happen if their lover told them to wait until marriage?
3. If a man abstains sex for a girlfriend until marriage and finally consummate, would he lose some degree of interest in the girl after the sex? For example, he doesn't find her as mysterious anymore, or he realized he only wanted to have sex with the girl and now he doesn't have any feelings for the girl anymore ...
4. I wonder what boys think of awkward and timid (not to mention they seem smart) girls (even if they are good-looking) that look/seem unapproachable or intimidating?
Thanks if anyone responds =)
1. Um, yes. I thought they would want this much earlier but this might be because we're not in the same age category.
2. Some might be okay. Some might not. Some might look elsewhere depends of your guy. ;/
3. Possible outcome. Actually, it's normal that there is a certain loss of mystery after the first time. If it doesn't work on the sexual level that might be a problem for the relationship afterwards.
4. Tame, nice girls for the first part (awkward and timid). Intimidating doesn't really rhyme with timid for me... more like cold. In that case, she would seem a bit uptight.
They can seem mysterious and attractive.

so theres this guy who broke up with me saying that he doesnt wanna be the bubble gum later to break my heart for the first time ( its my first anything with a guy ) so he breaks up with me now...does that make sense.. did he just make up that
Sorry I don't understand what you mean by bubblegum.
i'm just curious.do you think id be annoying the hell out of a guy if i was talking to them.
well. normally the guy starts the convo and have a decent chat and then randomly stops replying.
i mean when they don't reply i dont continue to talk. i try not to disturb people or annoy them.
but just feel as though im very annoying.
what do you think? rekon i should just stop talking altogether?
You mean on chat or in person cuz if that's in person that'd be pretty weird. Anyways, it sounds like you're talking about chat. In which case, it might be cuz he's doing something at the same time. I can be tabbed in a game and play and still have msn open. I can read a book on my bed and still have my chat open or be drawing or whatnot. He's not replying because probably he's doing something else. So if you want to catch his attention without being "annoying" just type something again. But don't do it like more than 3 times say. Plus, if he's busy he should put the busy sign on and if he's REALLY busy then he shouldn't be on messenger. It can also be that he might be expecting you to get the conversation going in another direction.

There's this guy I know (who happens to be clueless when it comes to girls), and I'm not sure when, but I'm starting to really like him. I went to homecoming with him, we had a little falling out, and we didn't really talk to each other anymore for like six months. So prom was last weekend and he came without a date (although I had one) and he took pictures with me and talked to me as if everything was normal again. The Thursday following, my friends invited him to go to an arcade/game place with us and they left me and him alone together to play games. He teased me and bothered me like old times. Just now, my friend set us up on a "study date" and told him it was just going to be her and two other friends (he didn't know I'd be there) and told me to go to Barnes & Noble to meet them up there. She didn't show up of course because she faked the whole thing, but I got there 15 minutes late and as I drove in, I saw him leave. So I called my friend and told her that he just left, she explained to him that she couldn't make it and that I was waiting there by myself. He turned all the way back to Barnes & Noble, found me, and told me he couldn't stay because he prepared dinner for his mom at home, and that he promised he'd be home to eat dinner at six with her. It was like.. 5:50 at the time so I didn't really understand why he felt the need to drive back just to tell me that, although I found it really sweet. Poor guy lives another city away from where we were met up.
Anywho, do you think he likes me? What do you think I should do about this? I know this is odd, but we don't even have each other's numbers. Should I just go ahead and take initiative? I rarely see him in school too so it's hard to contact him. And he lives about 30 minutes from my city (he recently moved and didn't want to transfer schools) so it's hard for us to see each other even if I wanted to see him. What should I do? I think I'm going crazy.
Well he does sure seem polite. If he didn't care too much he would've relayed a message to you somehow through your common friends at the fake study group so he wouldn't have to drive all the way back. I guess he MIGHT have something for you or at the least he cares. You'll have to assess for yourself if he's like with everyone (girl or guy).
That doesn't really matter. You like him and it's making you go crazy.
You have his FB? MSN? Chat it up. Hint that you'd like to hang out just the two of you OR tell your friends that you like him and make them arrange another fake study group OR a group activity. You could then hint to him in person that you'd like to hang out just the two of you. -
Do Guys let their friends determine what kinda girls they go for?
No, usually no. But if they're not that serious about a girl they might ask their friends' opinion just to know. And sometimes in situations when the girl is acting a certain way (like say... crazy?!) and he doesn't really realize it. Then it's up to his friends to tell him the chick's crazy. But in terms of preferences, to each his own and if a guy really likes a girl he won't let his friends' opinion influence him (for the better or worse).
should I believe him if he says "I do want to be with you, but not right now. right Now I just want to focus on finishing school and doing my own thing. After, when I finally have time and money for a girlfriend...then maybe we have a chance to be together again."We were together for 2.4 years... >_< *siigh...
He wants what? A break? You were together... as like a couple?
School, money is not really an excuse for delaying. Unless you're demanding. If I'm ever REALLY but really short on cash. I'd tell my gf and we'd work out some cheaper dates, there's plenty of stuff to do for free. Time, I kinda understand him... I want time for my studies and my gf wants us to spend more time together but I just see her less often and she should be able to understand that. So there'd be no reason to be not together.
From what I wrote, you might think that I'm saying not to believe him but actually I'm not saying anything (lol!). Maybe he doesn't see it the right way. You should tell him you guys can compromise and stuff, make it work if time and money are the only things holding you apart that is.
Would YOU stare at an ugly girl? I read somewhere: People stare at most beautiful things and most ugly things...they are not bothered about the mediocre...you must be either of the two...Is that true? so If a girl was really ugly, they get starred alot? .. but why would people be interested in staring at ugly things?
and how do i know if a guy is staring at me because he likes me or something else?
Well this is kinda of mean, but yes I'd stare at an "ugly" girl. Well not ugly, but if she had something really weird in her face or some distinctive trait, piece of clothing. I'd stare simply because it is not ordinary.
Second question, kind of hard to tell unless he has a very expressive face. If he seems... dreamy or intense or normal then maybe he's looking at you because you're pretty. If you catch him looking at you and he smiles, that could be a sign... If he turns his head away, that could mean anything. If he's making an inquisitive face, disgust, open mouth in disbelief (not awe but like wtf) then he might not see you positively.

Why does a girl refer to her boyfriend as "my friend"?
I mean, I know she's referring to her boyfriend, but why can't she just say it more explicitly. I find it annoying.
Thanks. xD

I'm in a club at school for a charity and we decided to pass out candy canes to spread awareness, I do have interest in this guy and I gave him a candy cane he said thank-you and that was it. I didn't introduce myself to him or anything so I felt like I had to do it again. So after school I decided to give him another candy cane but this time a bigger one since the one from the charity were mini ones, I was too nervous to approach him my self so my friend asked him if he would like a candy cane, after she said that I step in and asked him if he would like a bigger one. He said yeah and gave me the mini one back but I said he could have both. He laughed and he seem really happy when I offer him a bigger candy cane since I only had one and I didn't give it to anyone else. Well we're on winter break now so it's going to be 2 weeks until I can see him today.
My question is what would you be thinking if you were him? Since he seemed happy when I gave him a bigger one and I gave him since I gave him a candy cane earlier that week too, I'm hoping he would get the clue. Since it won't be 2 weeks until we go back to school, I'm just wondering is a situation like this worth remember or is it just nothing?
Honestly, if I didn't have an initial interest in you this would seem like nothing. So, I probably wouldn't think about it at all. :/ If you dropped your name or something, it would've maybe been more memorable. If you run into him while christmas shopping or w/e you can introduce yourself then. He might/might not remember you but you got a good excuse to talk to him. I wouldn't find that weird.
There's this guy who's a player, a total jerk. He doesn't believe in love he says, he even says it's corny. Last time he was asked, he said he has four girlfriends -- I am not sure if it's true, well that's what he said, he probably did have four girlfriends but I am not sure about now. Even prior to when he said he has four girlfriends, there's this ONLY girl (one of his said girlfriends) who he brings home, and kinda introduced to his family. Whenever he goes out, it would always have something to do with that girl. He goes out every night to the girl's house because he said the girl wanted to see her.The guy goes out of the country a lot. Whenever we would ask him what would happen with the girl and him when he leaves he would act like a jerk as if he's not committed. He was like, he doesn't care whether what happens to the girl when he leaves. So, the guy went out of the country and they didn't know when he would come back. But the two didn't broke up, whenever both of them could, they would talk and see each other through Skype. The guy didn't stay too long out of the country and went back sooner than expected. They are still together, the guy still brings the girl home and there is no other girl than her. And, I remember.. the guy doesn't really go to church, but the girl could make the guy go to church lol.
Do you guys think the guy does love the girl? or is the guy just playing around with her? It's really confusing because whenever we would ask if he's serious or not with the girl, he would always act like a jerk and get all irritated. It would always be like as if he doesn't care. So.. what do you guys think? ^^
Sounds like he's just puttin on a player front and he really likes the girl. Sorta the same way people say they didn't really like the other person when they break up. I doubt he's the one playing with the girl when she's the one who can make him go to church!
My guy bestfriend likes me, but he hasn't told me himself. His friends has told me and they're very reliable sources.Should I just pretend I don't know anything & continue with what him & I do until he actually tells me himself that he likes me?
The way I think of it right now is, if he does like me then he would tell but he hasn't told me because he values our friendship? Is that right to think?
Depends on what you want. Do you like him in a platonic way? Or you want more than friendship as well? He would have problems telling you because he's scared that if you don't feel the same way he'd lose your friendship and things would get real awkward. If you don't want to get into a relationship. Ignore that he likes you, and hint that you're looking elsewhere. If you want one, then you can always tell him you like him too (you know from your "reliable" sources that he likes you aswell so there shouldn't be any surprises) or wait... :X
-
so imagine tht yr at a party/kickback thing and you see a cute girl/or alot of girls. would you juss start talking to themm or her? or would you just sit and talk with the people you only knoww? would you want one of the new girls/cute girl to come and talk to you or is that weird?
I'd like c) and I'd probably do
. If there seems to be a girl that's my type then I'd probably try to get a few dudes to distract her friends so we can have an easier conversation. If she just comes up and talk to me then that's awesome, saves me time. I find it hard (and it must be the other way around too) when the girls are all packed together and talking to initiate with only one of them. Imo, if a cute girl comes up at one of my friends in our group. We wouldn't just stare at her up and down in a pinkberryy fashion and would let him go pretty easily. hahaToday, some guy suddenly gave me a random hug because I printed off his peer edited copy of his paper for him since he said that he didn`t receive it several times from me via email which was last week! He basically announced the whole thing because he was like, "Aww..thank you, etc." I felt like he was treating me like a teddy bear or something when he hugged me. Also, not to mention that he did this front of the whole class .. 0_0;; No, this is not high school. It`s college, yo. What is up with this guy..?!~Nuey
He's gay? Weirdly affectionate in a non manly way? Innappropriate? That's all I got.
This guy I met recently suggested that he's interested in Korean girls... and I said I knew some cute single ones and pretty much offered to be a matchmaker. Will that make him think that I'm not interested in him? I just wanted to find out if he was single or not HAHA.Yeah maybe. Usually playing the matchmaker means you're not interested. I was pretty sure it's a way girls have of telling you they're not interested. Now that you tell me this... all these years I've been reading it wrong! xD
How about you introduce him to yourself! Match him with yourself. Fixes the problem. Great surprise. OR Awkward night.
Dear Mr Sally,Why does my boyfriend do nothing but play games and watch football, and not buy me presents? All men are jerks!
Football and games does not require gifts and does not insult you back.
So there's this guy that I just met in college. I've only met him for about a month, but we got pretty close after a week or so. We see each other twice a week for one class. Lately, he's been acting kind of weird. Such as:1. after class, I would normally powerwalk to the bus stop to get to my next class in time and he's always slower than me when it comes to leaving the class, but he can somehow appear right next to me and start a conversation out of nowhere.
2. He also "forgets" things in his dorm room and walks me back to my dorm even though he has a class in 10 minutes. (We live next door to each other)
3. He used the excuse of being in the same club to get my number, but never bothered to ask my friend for her number even though they know each other. (he never called though)
4. Apparently, he notices what I do on the bus because he texted me once asking me if i was dying. (I was really sick that day)
5. He gets kind of quiet when I'm talking to his friend.
Is he interested in me or is he just super friendly? o.o
Sorry this is so long. ><"
From your pov, he seems interested. But then again, he might have REALLY forgot something and you're overthinking it. Hard to tell if you are or not. But if you're not, high chances of him being into you. What matters is if you like him or not.
My ex-bf and I broke up a month ago because I moved away for University and we both didn't want to maintain a long distance relationship. We sort of didn't know how to handle the break-up because we both would be constantly exchanging e-mails with one another or using skype to contact each other and we would say things like "I miss you", "I love you," and just do couple-y things that you can do over webcam and e-mails. We both agreed that if we started liking someone else, we would tell each other but thing is, last night I had to pry out information from him that I heard from friends of mine back home. He admitted that he's interested in another girl and so that was a reality check for me that I had to clearly move on so I told him that I can't contact him anymore so I can finally let go of him. He refused and said that he still wanted me to be apart of his life, but thing is-- he's already starting to like another girl and it's only been a month since we broke up PLUS we broke up because I moved away not because feelings were lost.What's his motive? Why does he keep stringing me along when he's already starting to develop feelings for another girl? What do you think he wants from me?
Friendship and support. And time is relative. One month might be too soon for you but long enough for others. Doesn't mean he didn't love you as much. He doesn't want to hurt you intentionnally. You're the one taking this badly. You agreed to this yourself. He probably thought it was too soon to tell you (he was right) and that's why you had to pry it out.
To the guys: What are signals that you guys pick up onthat lets you guys know that we (the girls) don't like you in that way?
Tell me you're not single. Suggest matchmaking me with your friends. (Read my reply a few quotes above xD) Mention how other guys are hot or your type and ask for my type of girl and whatnot as if there was no romantic possibility between us. Somehow mention that our friendship is platonic (or balantly state it x.x happened for real lol).
Why would a guy make jokes out of everything that a girl says constantly?Especially this doesn`t make sense to me because he (guy friend) avoided my question.
Guy`s friends: Hey, man. You should totally ask that chinese girl out that`s sitting next to you.
Guy: I know, I should! *smiles*
Me: 0_0 .......... I`m the only who sits next to you and I know that I`m not chinese, but there`s no other girls here who are either. Why do you want to ask a chinese girl out then?
Guy: Oh, I see. You`re just a wannabe. You know, you`re not chinese. *laughs jokingly*
Me: ........................ -___- ...........!
~Nuey
Trying to be cool. xD We can be cryptic also!
Seriously, can't say if his first statement is meaningful or not. Saying no would've been rude so there was kinda only one way outta that: humour!
-
LOL, well, i mean like, more in the way of like how some girls like their older brother's friend or something o_o
like, do guys avoid liking them because of the unsaid "rule" of how friend's sisters are off-limits and such xD
Oh, if I really liked the sister of a friend. I'd probably talk to him about it and not avoid her as a whole because that doesn't lead to anything. If on the other hand, the sister likes me and I don't, then I'd play the card of the unsaid guy rule of no dating friends' sisters. xD If I find a sister hot but I have no romantic interest about her, we'll jst joke about it
! Avoiding liking them would be stupid since you never know who you'll get a connection with. jst happens she's your friend's sis. So, theres no real reason to avoid sisters unless theyre total pinkberryes.
The rule applies only when it helps you or doesnt concern you! XD The rule is just to remind us that dating the sis of a friend can cause awkwardness for the friend. Rules shouldn't really dictate how you act but guide your actions. (I'm sure my last sentence is wrong but w/e)
-
We've gone out on a couple of dates--and he seems to have a good time--but he never makes the first move? After he drives me home, he'll say things like "blahblah see you next time", yet he never actually takes the initiative to ask me out again... Is this just a sign that he's not interested? :x
Possibly. OR he is used to you taking the lead. Maybe he thinks its best that you organize the dates. Personally, I kinda prefer that cuz I'm lazy but that preference only applies if I am in a relationship. In this case, I assume you guys are not in a relationship yet. Therefore, his "laziness" might be due to his lack of interest in you or pure laziness :X. Best way of action, ask him why. He might have good reasons (school/family/etc.) and it would be unwise to assume he's not interested in you just cuz some fella on internet said so.
Do guys avoid liking their good/close friends' sisters? =\If he has a strong personality, I don't see a reason why he should be shy. Otherwise, he might be intimidated by the sister (I am assuming bigger but smaller sisters can be as frightening). Say, she has a strong personality and would ask him lots of questions and make him feel uncomfortable ("Do you like my sister?"//"Are you her boyfriend?"//"Do you think she's ____?").
Or maybe the sister is stunningly hot and he can't act naturally and avoids her. xD (not logical)

Hi guys!
one of my guy friends might think i like him. I asked him to hc a few days ago, and there is a very high possibility he thinks i like him, it got really awkward, as in he stops initiating conversations with me and now its basically me trying to make it less awkward. personally, i feel awkward thinking he thinks i like him also, and the dude is a great friend, so i dont wanna lose a friend over something so stupid. should i clear the air by telling him that i asked him as a platonic friend? or would that further the suspicion of me liking him? or should i just wait in hopes he m ight somehow realize i actually dont like him romantically?
Thankkkks
Yeah asking him to hc might have gave off a wrong signal. I know I would've gotten it wrong too. You can either make it clear you asked him as a platonic friend. (it won't make it more suspicious if your "denial" is firm and you don't go the all-shy-and stuff-and-say-no!!!!-I-don't-like-you-*blush*-*flee*-kinda-act. Or try to subtly mention it to him like... ionno hoping that he didn't lose his chance at asking the girl he liked to hc because of you or something...
I am assuming he accepted.
-
If you know that a girl likes you (fact) and you haven't really approached the subject with her,
what would be your motive for wanting to go places, just the two of you?
Confirming that "fact". Seeing how it is to be alone with the girl and try to envision what a relationship would be with her and if we can hang out together alone and feel at ease with it and not require the constant presence of friends. Maybe so I can tell her my own feelings.
hey guys/fellas =]theres this guy ive recently met in class in university, ive known him about 2 weeks now? a bit less. he asked for my number/email the second day i met him and he texts me every night, and the days we have classes at same time he drives me to school and one time he even drove me home though he lives really far. he's really nice too, like staying after school to help me with my homework even though it was getting late. THERES A CATCH THOUGH: when i talked to him on msn, there is a pic of him/girl in his msn dp and his msn name had the words "loving youuu" ..so i'm assuming he has a gf...but if he has a gf why is he so nice? is he actaully that nice , wanting nothing in return? or is he double sided? my friends tell me to make sure he has gf, but I thought it was pretty obvious, but i dont noee how to ask? so what do you thnk of this guy? just a player or a really friend?
idk T_THe seems VERY nice... Does his Facebook tell you anything? (Facebook is useless most of the times.) He seems to give you lots of attention. If you had a bf, I'm sure he'd feel uncomfortable with that. Maybe he's just a good person. Next time you chat with him, tell him his display pic of him and his gf is very cute. You won't be asking a question and you'll get an answer. Girls usually find couple pics cute no? (x_X) so it won't be obvious that you're curious.
Hi guys!i just had a few questions
1. what do guys think about clumsyness in a girl?
2. what do guys think about girls that laugh a whole lot?
3. What do guys think of girls that are smart, but sometimes dont know about the little things
(ex. dogs cant see color, -- really??? omggg howw!!)
Thanks!
IMO
1. Cute til you break something expensive that's not yours, pour coffee on my pants, hurt me/yourself bad.
2. Cute if the duration of the laugh is reasonable. Laugh like a hyena all the time and my ears will bleed.
3. Cute. And I'm hoping girls like that in guys too cuz I didn't know that dog fact.

My post wasn't properly answered in the mac thread so here goes:
Hi, I am about to buy a MBP 2.8ghz 15" with the anti-glare (matte? yea? :X) option. After much research, I'm pretty much leaning towards the matte option (95%) just need to check it out in stores before ordering online (cuz you can't buy a customized mbp instores right?).
The one last remaining issue is the hardrive. The 2.8 comes with a 500gig HD which I was planning to downgrade to a 320 but at 7200rpm (faster? biggrin.gif). Thing is... I heard that the 7200rpm HD had problems (notably the beeping one which was solved: http://support.apple.com/downloads/Hard_Dr...are_Update_2_0) and that they are loud? Is this true?
How much louder is a 7200rpm hd compared to the 5400rpm ones? I've also read (http://www.macsimumnews.com/index.php/archive/17_macbook_pros_owners_having_problems_with_500gb_7200rpm_drives_video/) that this applies only to the 17" model.
So can anybody clear this up? (I am aware we are not a tech forum but I don't feel like signing up on a random forum and ask one question)
thanks

Sorry if this has been asked before, but how long should guys wait after breaking up before hitting/ looking for other girls?
I broke up with my boyfriend of 4 years because I'm going to a college quite far away, but it ended on good terms. I go on vacation for 2 months and find out that he's been asking all his friends to set him up. I'm not sure how to react to that. Should I be angry that he moved on so quickly, or be nonchalant about it since we broke up..?
Why be angry when you can just be happy? I know it's harder than it sounds but you DID broke up with him. Wanting to hook up with girls doesn't always mean we have moved on. In fact, we can still have feelings but want to drown them with the company of other girls. Being angry will get you no where. If you need some solo time to "move on" then it's YOUR decision.
Okay guys, Is this guy interested in me or not.First off, I've only known him for what..4 days haha. But we have become extremely close since the first day. My friend introduced us, and we hit it off right there. We hung out for the whole day, watched a movie, bumped arms and then he asked for my number. Called me after I went home, stayed on the phone for what..5 hours?! During our phone call, he was kind of giving me hints like "You know its soo obvious when a guy is interested in a girl. Guys are simple." He ended up telling me that he was interested, and would love to see me again. Oh heres a twist, I have 4 days left at home. I'm leaving for boarding school on the 24th. lol. And he's going to college in the city. (I'm a year younger) I also asked him, why do you want to see me again? What are you going to do when I leave for school? I bet you're not going to call. He asked me why I would think like that, and that he's going to call. Well obviously knowing guys, I've known him for 4 days. He's not going to commit to that, even if my boarding school is in the same state.
So....we met again, on monday and it was such a cute date
We went to central park, sat around, talked. Then we went to MoMa and it was there that he began 'contact'. He started to hold my hand, cuddle, play around my hair. It was sweet. Then we went back to central park and sat around talking for another few hours, hahaha. Okay......skip to last night! He hasn't called/talked to me since that night. I was literally going ldskhfslfh, why isn't this dude talking to me anymore? Especially since I have such a short amount of time left to see him. So last night, he did. And i was pretty ecstatic, but he was being....weird. It was like I was talking to a whole different person. He was being weird, awkward, strange. I even asked him, are you nervous? He replied, no, why would you say that. I'm just not a phone type of guy. I thought to myself, if you're not a phone type of guy how did we talk for 5 hours on the FIRST night that we met. Then he started to say how I have a lot of friends, and I must be busy for the next 4 days. I was kind of expecting him to ask me to hang out again. Then he continued to say "Well..if you ever want to hang out before you leave, just tell me..."
Not to sound like a pinkberry or anything, but he's supposed to ask me to hang out, after all, he was the one who confessed his 'interest' in me. He was also saying how he has work on friday, he's busy on saturday, family time on sunday. I'm leaving monday.
I know, we've known each other for 4 days. You can't expect anything out of that, but he also said that we have to make the best out of whatever time we have left. If so, why isnt he making time for me. My friend said he's had girlfriends after girlfriends, and he told me himself that he dated around 20 girls before. But I know that he's not a 'player'. He's just someone who wants a relationship where you can stay mutually interested in one another, like me.
We ended up compromising, and Im going to visit him after his shift. I plan on asking him if he's interested enough in me to pursue/continue talking to me in boarding school. I don't want to have to deal with boys unless its necessary, especially since it's my senior year and i'm going to be loaded with work/college apps.
What's your opinion? Sorry for the super long entry btw (=
He might be backing off on his initial interest. I can't tell since it's not that obvious. The start was great and your ending was like meh so it's 50/50. Good thing is that you're going to get closure since you're gonna "confront" him about this sudden weirdness. Good luck and "I don't want to have to deal with boys unless its necessary" you make it sound like we're annoying!
For my question:If a girl you're not dating grabs your hand / forearm while walking through a crowded place. What would you think of that?
If I'm interested in her a little or a lot then I might think she likes me or something. If I'm not interested in her I won't think much of it. Girl friends (not gf), for example, can do that without making a guy think too much of it.
-
So-- I've always wondered -- GUYS: When a girl (that you like) is reserved and only lets you get to know her little by little, would this draw you towards her more?? (Not necessarily hard to get, but really making you work hard in order to open up to you). If a girl was like this, would you feel hurt and think she was avoiding you? or would this make you try harder to get to know her?
It would really depend on his own resolve. To what point does he really like you... if it's just a crush then he might get annoyed or just lose interest and not pursue you or try harder to get to know you. If he's fallen for you, guys have no problem working hard for stuff they really want so there's no problem if that is the case. Personnally, I don't think you should act this way unless you have good reasons to say some very personal issues or something that's not first-date conversation material. Then you don't have alot of personal things you can share because your personal things would be serious or require a higher level of confidence than stuff about a normal person. It could certainly make you appear more interesting but in this case it would be GENUINE and not FAKE. Like I don't want to work hard and build up trust in our relationship to know what your favorite designer brand is. So to answer your question, yes it would draw guys more initially but if there was no real reason to make it hard to know you, you might be setting him up for dissapointment.

Do men really prefer skinny stick thin girls? LOL. just curious. xD~
Heterosexual men like women.
We all have our personal tastes in women. Personally, I don't think I'd mind.i have 2 questions i need help with,although the 1st one i kinda touched on
last time i was here .__.
1)if you guys were going far away to
college from the girl you liked, would
you still flirt/talk to them or would you
just avoid her to let your feelings pass?
2)how would you want a girl to approach you?
where youve seen eachother around a few times
but have never spoken a word to eachother
1) If I really LIKED her I'd try to maintain some kind of relationship. BUT if I RLY RLY like her maybe I'd let it go (if far away is VERY far away) since I would not want to tie her down in a long distance relationship that never had a close phase (since we are still not going out). Then again, talking and flirting never really entitles you to like ONLY that girl that is far away now. :/
2) Ambush me from a tree and yelling real loud. That would be AWESOME.
Or you could always just say hi when we see each other at a relatively reasonable hearing distance (no hellos from 30 meters away - awkward). And make it clear that it's addressing to the guy don't wanna make him think you're saying hello to the person behind him. From then on, you can strike up a conversation. But honestly (and I mean it), I'd love it if a girl just charged at me yelling and after that saying: "Hey let's get to know each other." Sigh... XDSo there's this guy at my hakwon and we kinda live close to each other, I guess.The other day, we went to go watch this movie, and since we both live in the same neighborhood, he suggested us to go home together.
I've never ridden the subway before, and I am seriously directionally challenged, so at first, I refused.
But anyways, we ended up taking the subway, because he promised that we wouldn't have to transfer subway lines, and that we'd get off at the same stop.
Unfortunately, I had no idea where I was when we got of the bus. (Sad, I know)
So then we were kinda arguing about it for like ten minutes, and then I had this brilliant idea to go ask one of the people who work at the subway. (There were a lot of them around, because the subway line opened that week.)
It was so hilarious, though, because I didn't even know if the stop I was talking about was the right one.
And the subway guy said that I had to transfer to like, Line 2, which I, like....I'm definitely afraid of transferring.
So the guy I was with, he just kinda hurriedly told me how to get to the transfer place and stuff, before leaving the subway.
Basically.....he just kind of ditched me, this directionally-challenged, country-bumpkin girl, in the middle of the subway to find my way through the mess.
It's obvious I got home, because I'm here, typing this, but...
like, shouldn't he have at least texted me, asking if I got home okay, or didn't get lost or anything like that?
am I expecting too much out of this?
I dunno, like, maybe he's just a dense or uncaring guy....??
He recently got out of a relationship, which has nothing to do with this post....I think
but like, isn't that just etiquette?
And if I'm expecting this kind of stuff, does that mean I like him?
I was planning on asking him if he wanted to watch GI Joe when it opens here, but will that be too forward?
and also, on the texting thing:
if I texted him, asking why he didn't text me on what he didn't text me on (wow, that's confusing), will he think I'm crazy, or will he think I like him?
Texting him about that would be weird unless you are his girlfriend but even if you were, you'd just be entitled to it and perceived as annoying (and just weird if you are not his gf). I dunno what hakwon (and too lazy to google it) but it's probably good etiquette behind this (or partially good). I guess he had other things in mind and could not carry out his perfect gentleman duty which could mean that he's not interested in you. You might be overthinking this. :/
edit:
okayy i'm not suree if this question has been asked but ...so my friend decided to set me like an oppurtunity to get a bf . so i agree
one day my friend called and said that the guy wanted to talk to me but since my internet was unaviable at the time
i talked on the phone wif him wif my friend there n we talked until 2 in the morning ( yes i liked the phone alot ^-^ )
so after a few days we plannig to hang on like 4 dayz later but due to some incident i couldn't
make it then . so we planned to 2 dayz later ,. but we never met up n then when my IE worked again , i got his msn n added him , but he talked for a bit thne like a few months after since like chineses new year was the last time we talked on msn ,. n the weried thing is everytime i talk on msn wif him it's onli me that starts the convo . he doesn't even bother .but we have seen picture of each other through Dp .. but i 'm curious was he every intersted in me ?
and now he has a gf so i'm wondering , if i can still be friends wif him but thing is it's gonna akward to talk again since i'm not a very talkative person , so like shy . would be okay ? how shouuld i start ??!!?! any pointeer ?
HELP !!!!
thxz and kool thread ^0^
I guess he wasn't interested in you if he did not initate more than that over that long period of time.
---
Up to you, if you can JUST be friends then go for it. If you still have some sort of crush on him, leave it. He's taken atm don't fool yourself into a friendship in which you'll be wanting more. If you want pointers, try talking to him in person more than on msn. Try to ask your friend (who set you up) to organize something together (as friends).
-
sure, you can say it's like a situation for facebook or whatever the like... but it can be for any type of pictures that can be posted online... or photo albums. (especially about the girlfriend one.)
Honestly for the girlfriend one I don't have a good answer. Maybe he doesn't want people to identify him with his girlfriend too much. In my circle of friends, we have a nickname for my friend who is with this girl for a long time, it's basically their two first names put together. It's rather silly but it's just to tell to which point they've come to be a "single entity" sorta. XD So the reason for cropping out the girlfriend of his display pic might be that or something incredibly simple. It doesn't kill to ask and guys TEND not to make a fuss about things like this.
For the second part, I'll just repeat myself: maybe they don't want other friends to assume that the girl friends are their girlfriends. It's MOST likely that that is the reason they crop out girl friends in pictures. Unless like they're bffs or he hangs around lotsa girls but still having one girl with him in the picture sends a message (not intentionally) that they are together. I cropped out a girl friend in one of my display pics once since I did not want people from my other circles to think that she was my gf.
The reason the guys' answers seems a bit "weaker" than the girls is that we have a strong sense of synthesis (dunno if that translates well in english...). What I mean is: we tend to stick to the point and leave unnecessary details (albeit sometimes interesting and MAYBE insightful) out. It's a guy thing to be expected in this thread. We could have paragraphs of anecdotes more or less related to the question but that's not really our thing.
I tried to give a "elaborate" answer here.
Okie I'm gonna go for one ^^ I just hope I don't sound like an idiot DXSo, there's this guy at my school. When I first saw him, I didn't develop a crush right away, but he caught my attention (he has a very feminine face, I was so astounded
) But a few weeks after that, I saw him one day in the library after school. We were in different tables, both with our friends. I was looking around and I saw him, so I thought, "Oh! It's that guy that has a really girly face!" I guess he saw me looking at him, because the next thing I knew he was looking at me as well. I guess I developed a crush on him right there.. Because after that I couldn't help myself but keep glancing at him DX I caught him doing the same thing to me though a few times, but I wasn't sure if it was a good thing or a bad thing. I mean, he could of been thinking, "Why does that girl keep looking at me?" I'd be devastated if he really did think that! DXSo, after that, whenever we saw each other in the hallways, I'd just look down or pretend not to see him. There were just 3 or 4 times where he caught me off guard, so we actually locked eyes DX And when we did, he'd stare for a loong time. In reality it was probably no more than 10 seconds, but it felt way longer! It was like time slowed down
(Dumb, I know) But I was totally panicking too, so I wasn't sure what to do. There was another time where we haven't seen each other for a while (I had swine DX). We were outside our classrooms for our finals, so I was just standing there looking at my phone, waiting for our proctor. A second later I looked up and he was literally RIGHT there! I was like "Omg holy crap!" And he was staring right at me, and I got so scared because it was totally off guard DX He trying to get upstairs (because there were lots of people in front of him) but the way he just stood there and stared at me really startled me. Okay, I'm done rambling, I really hope I didn't bore you guys to death DX
Thanks for reading my super long post
EDIT: He also always seems to have a weird expression on his face. It's almost like he's grinning, but I'm not too sure because I don't try to look at him too often because I don't want him to know that I like him or anything DX
Edit Again: Omg I'm such an idiot for typing so much. So sorry if this was a total waste of your time. It's just that I really don't want to get too excited when it might of meant nothing to him >_>
Take out a watch and time 10 seconds. That is friggin' long staring action. Anyways not much happened in your long post and no questions asked. So yeah time was wasted haha!
Anyways you have the wrong mindset for success: you don't want him to find out you like him. So how about striking up a conversation or at least give him a chance to strike up a conversation without worrying about giving you a stroke. At least say hi and get to know his name. Hopefully, you'll get a conversation going and get his facebook (used to be a telephone number...) at the end of it! If you guys hit it off great then it'll be much easier to talk to him again. If not, you won't have to face those awkward moments again and can get to know him better and build some sort of relationship rather than having nothing. And don't worry about being perceived as weird for staring at him. He's doing it too. (10 seconds... I don't believe it)
edit:
Others have asked this probably. But I'm kind of impatient enough toread all 800 pages for the answer. So I'm gonna ask again.
Will guys really ask for "lovemaking" from their girlfriend? I mean, dont they
respect them enough? Were they really thinking about it most of the time?
Why would they ask for it? Seriously.
Yes we would ask for sex. Asking for sex when you're in a relationship isn't disrepectful in my opinion. It's just another level of physical intimacy like cuddling/kissing/making out, etc. According to a research guys have dirty thoughts every 30 sec. (or less) on average or something... but I don't have a source so that stat is unreliable!
Why would you ask for anything at all? Because you want it. Libido is a totally healthy thing to have for both sexes. If a girl doesn't want to have sex with her bf, she totally has the right to refuse him. BUT he also has the right to ask for it (imo) but not pressure her into it. Then again, some factors are to be taken in account such as age & cultural traditions blabla. -
- Like as in an actual picture or a facebook display picture?
- Assuming it's a facebook thing, maybe they don't want other friends to assume that the girl friends are their girlfriends.

Hey I jst wanted to know if you guys think its likely that snow leopard will be coming out on all macs before september 8? Since sept 8 is the last day of the free itouch offer. I was thinking of waiting til sept to see instead of paying now and having to pay for uppgrade later.

Hmmm, I wonder why this sounds familiar? Age is a term that represents how old you are but like other traits such as caring, intelligent, talented, funny, it can be a part of people's preferences towards who they like and want to be in a relationship with. So people can prefer to be with someone older or younger and that is their right and choice to make. Age isn't a definition but it is certainly something that people can prefer, whether it be older or younger. For instance, I prefer to be with someone older and with a good sense of humor. Am I wrong to have these preferences? Is it so bad for people to have an idea of what they want and have certain preferences even in regards to age?
No. People have preferences on all levels. Just keep the door open for surprises.
Here's a question I have (I'm not sure if this has been posted already) but is it true that guys really don't think that they can be just friends with a girl? My male co-worker and I were talking about friendships recently and he told me that most guys don't believe in platonic friendships with girls and that they are usually "friends" with a girl because of an ulterior motive (ie. they want a romantic relationship, secretly harboring deeper feelings, want to hook up with her). They play the friend card but are secretly wanting more or something other than friendship. Is there any truth to this?From my experience... I had a certain romantic interest in a few of my female friends but once I get to know them more on a friend level I can (yes, we can) realize that we're better off just being friends. Maybe because we get along more like brother and sister, maybe she's not that great finally or maybe I realized she doesn't harbour the same feelings that I do for her. In the end, those ulterior motives dissapear. But I do have female friends whom I never wanted anything more than our friendship. So to answer your question, it IS partly true. I always thought girls could sniff out those secret feelings.

1. Scared to hear the answer? Too shy? Thought they were daring enough and are now cowering? Take your pick. (:
2. Surprised then maybe scared. I'd get some info on her (in her same stalker-ish ways) and if I don't feel interested I'll just ignore this and if she's kind of attractive then I'd get to know her better in person. If she looks/acts weird I'd label her stalker. :/
3. You can't tell what he's thinking and he probably can't tell what he's thinking himself. He can't make up his mind so you shouldn't settle for a guy like him. You can certainly be friends with him but if he really liked you he would try something else than to make you jealous. Maybe he just likes to tease you in a friendly way. Who knows what HE's thinking. D:
4. Best of luck would be to catch him alone away from the pack. ohmy.gif Or in class where it's also your environment. He might not be directly staring at you... like maybe he's looking at the girl besides you or the window behind you? tongue.gif Try not to overthink it. Anyways, you can always approach him on school matters instead of joking (since that doesn't work) and move on to more personal issues to get to know him better.

You have his FB? MSN? Chat it up. Hint that you'd like to hang out just the two of you OR tell your friends that you like him and make them arrange another fake study group OR a group activity. You could then hint to him in person that you'd like to hang out just the two of you.
. If there seems to be a girl that's my type then I'd probably try to get a few dudes to distract her friends so we can have an easier conversation. If she just comes up and talk to me then that's awesome, saves me time. I find it hard (and it must be the other way around too) when the girls are all packed together and talking to initiate with only one of them. Imo, if a cute girl comes up at one of my friends in our group. We wouldn't just stare at her up and down in a pinkberryy fashion and would let him go pretty easily. haha
idk T_T
