and not telling us any stories, i will tell mine!

i have a date lined up with a dude from okc for next Sunday. he seems really cool and nice, but a little too eager to get in my pants. it's almost borderline creepy. he's been smothering me with compliments so i'm kind of into it but also creeped out. turned on AND creeped out? i don't even know how to process that.

i'm not even sure if i find his attractive. he looks cute in some of his pictures but not others.

i guess i'll see how it goes? either way i will tell you all the details of the date since bagman isn't up to par lately.

post a pic of him?

nah. i'm not going to stoop THAT low.

Oh snap, I'm looking forward to hearing about this. Especially the sexual details if there are any, in detail.

Since you won't post a picture, I will. I just got a message from this chick from okc today. http://www.okcupid.com/profile/tahdaaah

I haven't decided if I'm going to reply yet - it looks like she had a kid, and I'm not really into that. On the other hand she looks fun. Sigh. I am just not trying really at all. I'm glad to see you are tricky. I don't know what's wrong with me.

I've turned into a hermit over the past 6 months.

She doesn't even have a body type. I can't date a woman without a body type.

But can you handle this:

Smokes - Sometimes/Drinks - Very often

Uh, no.

I was asking Kyle, actually ...
But, good intervention ...

i chatted with him online last night for a couple hours. he seems really really nice, almost a little too nice? like i'm just wondering WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU, there must be something wrong with you, because who is actually so seemingly nice and polite and well mannered and talented and hot?

When he coyly invites you to follow him down to the basement dungeon for a "tour", just be ready to slash him.

that sounds kind of hot, other than the dying part.

The answer to your question, dearest tricky, is everyone; at first!

EXACTLY! that's why i'd like to find out what IS wrong with him. haha

i've resolved to tell people that i have depression before they get in too deep with me. because some people can't handle that.

before they get in too deep with me

Like, when it's just the tip?

Ask Lucas, Kyle ...

Meanwhile, tricky, if you are LOOKING (too hard) you will FIND ...
... even if they aren't really there!

agreed

It's simple; if you go in with a failing attitude, you feel you have nothing to lose and have ALREADY FAILED!

Wow, and I thought I was jaded.

Yoda?

No; common sense ...

huh? that sounds unhealthy.

i thought that having no expectations from anyone was the way to go, b/c then you can never be disappointed. at least that is what i try to live by.

right now i'm not trying to find a new boyfriend or anything, just cool people to hang out with and maybe do sexy things with once in a while.

i am also trying to get used to the idea that if i am alone, it is ok and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. constantly feeling like you need to be with someone in order to be happy is not good. i'm not saying that is how i feel, but that's sort of what is beaten into our brain by society.

It is?

... and it being unhealthy was my point
... additionally, having NO expectation is unhealthy, having A LITTLE BIT is
... if you have NONE, then why be there in the first place?

The free food of course.

It is?

yes. at least, that's been my experience as a woman.

good point i suppose. i expect that people i care about aren't going to be a dick to me.

I wouldn't even mention this in the way I did if I didn't care about you as well ...
Believe it or not, I'm trying to help you, Brook ...

Need I refer you to the thread called "Experiment" where you hung on my EVERY WORD of the advice I "unnaturally Thrash" gave to you?
(That you ignored and lost the chick)

I luv ya, baby; don't make me have to hurt you unnecessarily ...

This is true.
