Random Rants XLIII: So Much Whinging Your Head May Explode

Does she smile a lot while looking directly at you? Does she laugh at your less than hilarious jokes?

 

[W|M]

Are her pupils dilated when she's talking to you?

 

[Borachio]

Does she take more drugs than usual when you're in the room?

Does she kick you in the shins under the table? I've found that's a sure sign.

I... Think so? I always try to notice but I never do.

Are her pupils dilated when she's talking to you?

Does she take more drugs than usual when you're in the room?

Does she kick you in the shins under the table? I've found that's a sure sign.

I go for clean birds. Not being violent is a good sign also.

 

[Borachio]

Go on. Ask the poor girl out. She's probably wanting you to.

But do it BEFORE Christmas.

Just ask her out bro. Putting it off, questioning yourself and fretting over your answer only prolongs the agony of possible rejection. Get it over with, either result, you will feel better about it all soon enough.

This. Just make sure you use the word date when you ask her. Don't wishy washy it bro.

I think I've heard that dilated pupils can sometines be a sign of attraction, or at least enjoyment in being around you, IIRC.

 

[Borachio]

Yes, Mr P. I've heard the same. Unfortunately peering closely at someone's pupils generally doesn't have a good result. I have tried. Both in bed and out of it.

But better results in bed, I admit.

Yeah that stuff is creepy. Better to see if she's playing with her hands or playing with her hair or seeing what her body language around you is like if you're looking for a specific physical sign. People tend to do those sorts of things when they're into another person.

I really need to pick up the pace- it dawned on me that, come January, I'll have spent near on a third off my life a member of this forum (admittedly quite the absentee, other times quite the lurker) and I have very little to show for it. I'm practically a stranger, which is a shame because I like this place, I really do.

As a result I'm concocting a plan (a weird kind of New Years resolution?) to bring my post per count day up to... 1. Not that post count matters in the slightest- but it is an indicator of activity in a community that I just keep giving up on. Kind of like a unit of measurement for the inherently unmeasurable.

The trouble is, I have no idea how to do it. I assume it gets easier as people get to know you more, but how do you get to that point I have no idea. I am trying though.

 

[Arakhor]

Funny - I've been thinking that after I've spent nearly four years on this forum (and maybe two in OT), I really don't have that much to show for it. I probably ought to be doing something useful with my life.

Well, I think there are slight differences between someone with Aspergers (like you, or me) doing weird things with their hands and a girl running them through her hair.

Dunno, just find threads where you feel like you can talk about stuff, and then talk about it. If none such exist, create your own (news threads are probably the easiest to create).

If that fails, make hilarious puns, in every single thread.

I'm serious.

 

[Kennigit]

play forum games/spam. OR post seriously, but no one except downtown and the moboss formaldehyde shipping does that.

This is very true. A large part of my hermit existence is not due entirely to my Zen-like mastery of my emotional well-being!

If that fails, make hilarious puns, in every single thread.

I'll admit, that was quite chill.

I never even realized my stomach could hold 2 litres of .... fluid, or whatever, but then I managed to puke that up within half an hour

Cool!

It wasn't until the last time that I was sick that I realised just how large food matter can be and still be passed back up your throat.
