I don't even get introduced to some of my friends' girlfriends. Probably through fear that they might realise their boyfriends are friends with someone who plays around with videogames + music, and that might scare them off. lol. Burnley girls are sooo open minded. My flat smells like Amsterdam 24/7 so that could possibly be a factor also.Last edited by dataDave; 05-07-2007, 11:05.

A girl once told me flat out "I think you're really hot, we should go to the other room". No morse code, no hand movements that the other side is meant to pick up on, just plain English. You have no idea how much respect I had for for that - if people would just say what they meant then we'd all save a lot of time and hassle. It could just be the people I know, but almost every relationship I've seen fall apart (as so many do) has been over some petty, small issue that would easily have been resolved had the two people just spoken their minds about it.

relationships can be great, and can also make you equally miserable, being single is the same though, just different good and bad things. Just got out of a relationship after two years, loving a lot about being single, but miss having that person to bounce off of. if you find someone you really get on with, and there i no bull****, there is something great about that. I had that for a bit, but it just moved to a different place. still love her and probably always will, but we're different people now. i'm not gagging to get abck into a relationship, but if one comes along....

As they say, the two year bit is the make or break for many. I kissed lots of toadettes before finding a princess mind you. I guess I always liked female company and ****ing a lot. Then one gets you like no other and it's the simple decision of singleness or togetherness. Mine was a no-brainer. The decision not the woman.

Me & my lady have been together for about 6 yrs now. Sometimes its good, sometimes she bugs the hell out of me & sometimes I bug the hell out of her.
Oh & the guy who talked about his mates being pussy whipped. I think its more a case of your conscience telling u what to do. Its a pain in the arse having 1 tbh & I wish I didnt have 1 sometimes!!

The level of game-playing that is expected in modern relationships is truly staggering when you examine it; if you like someone, you're supposed to pretend you don't so as not to appear too available. If you get a girl's number, you're supposed to drag it out and wait 50 years before responding to her texts or calls so she doesn't think you're desperate. She's supposed to pretend to be unavailable for dates and play hard to get (i.e. act like she's not interested even if she is) so as not to appear to easy.
How on earth are you expected to have a genuine relationship or indeed find a genuine person when you have to wade through so many layers of unnecessary bull****? Who the hell makes these 'rules' anyway?

What do I do?
Why do you ask? you always do this

You're better off single, Palmela Handerson is a wonderful, caring friend.
Originally posted by Ady View PostIt's because of all this game-playing nonsense that I largely avoid relationships now in favour of casual, no-strings one-offs when they occur.

Ady mate I agree totally. You've knocked it right on the head there!!
If theres no honesty even before u genuinely get together for a date then why bother in the 1st place. The thing is a lot of people probably miss out on being with someone that was really good for them too, but because they faff around so much the other person just thinks 'sod it, I can take a hint' when its actually the opposite. But then how do you know if its the opposite though?
If people really like each other then they should just get on with it I say.
