speaking generally,
I'd suggest trying to keep the scores close, then you can schedule another date for a rematch.
the more you win, the less the odds for another date.
Agreed, if you intentionally lose, it will hopefully show that you care about the other person. And hopefully they don't take it as an offense.
If they do. i say run and duck under cover.
From whom are unforgiven we bring the mercy of war.
I dont know Scars on Girls are hot.
Y'know, I have to say, I was getting bummed for being rejected at first(It still sucks, even if she was nice about it) But I finally realize that im off to college, and with that nagging voice in my head saying "She will just say No, dont bother" gone. I hope to update soon with more attempts
Hallelujah another sinner saved! Haha. That's definitely the right attitude to have hotsauce, just keep thinking like that and you'll do just fine, especially on a college campus of even middlin size.
I beg of you sarge let me lead the charge when the battle lines are drawn
Lemme at least leave a good hoof beat they'll remember loud and long
Sadly, it is a Gigantic campus. Imagine if a village in the mountains with house far apart. that is what UCSC is like. It is quite possible to go in that campus, and wake up with a deer in your car.

I am not worried about the students, I am worried about feeling old. I have been teaching for the last three years during my PhD, it was easy. Beside, they are computer engineering (or maybe computer science this year ) students, so they are likely not high, they just spent their whole night playing video games.
Which is the good point in all that: I will have a pretty easy time recruiting partners to play Strife, I guess .

So, as of last week I'm single again and on the prowl. Things have been very...interesting...since my life is divided between PA and MI basically. Hooked up with a few girls while I was home but nothing progressed too far except...
Went to a cookout at a friend's house...same crowd as the block party I was at a few weeks ago. At the block party, I met my friend's wife's sister and we struck up a conversation. At one point, one of the kids there threw water on her, and she said to me "I'm absolutely soaked!" and grabbed my hand and put it on her leg, at which point I told her I was seeing someone. We exchanged e-mails but didn't really talk. Anyway, I see her at this cookout on Sunday. We start chatting it up and I told her that the relationship wasn't really a thing anymore. I could tell that the wheels were turning in her head. Anyway, everybody was wasted but neither of us were drinking.
I gave her a look and asked if she's thinking what I'm thinking. She responded, "I dunno...what are you thinking? Because I'm probably thinking the same thing..." I said that I give our odds of sneaking away without getting caught are pretty low. She goes "Well...it isn't impossible..." Anyway we snuck downstairs and screwed in the basement while everyone else was hammered drunk outside lol
Anyway, I get back to MI and trainwreck (the girl I broke up with...she became a full blown alcoholic while we were dating and a pathological liar. Hence the breakup - I don't have time for that gak) hits me up...she's been hitting me up nonstop all week. I tell her we can MAYBE be friends with benefits if she can turn her life around, and reevaluate then. Anyway, since I've gotten back up here I've been fooling around with her and semi-rekindling a more-than-friendship with my old research assistant. No solid plans yet but it's pretty much only a matter of time.
As if that's not enough conflict-of-interests for you, I'm on Tinder the other day and I see a former student of mine. Hmmmmm...to swipe yes or no? feth it, YOLO, I swiped right and to my surprise, "it's a match." Anyway, I send her, "Well if this isn't awkward..." She writes back..."It's only awkward if you want it to be " So apparently that's a thing.
Wish me luck gents. I've traveled a hard path in the past, but I know that this next semester will be full of all sorts of debauchery, and my body is ready.

Luck. Don't forget to stretch, you aren't as young as you used to be.

Having had some experience with females across different hair colors, ethnic backgrounds, etc., I'd strongly advise against buying into any of the stereotypes or making sweeping generalizations. As I think we've discussed here before, the guy who invented the bit about Asian girls being deferential, submissive, etc. needs to get his head kicked in. Man o man.
Anyway, my personal experience and opinion is that there's a lot of complexity and individuality with women, and that expresses itself in a lot of different ways. As I said earlier, you have to learn how to be a better boyfriend, and each girl you date will be another step along that path. HOWEVER, there will also be those things that you "learn" from one girl that really, really don't apply to the next. You'll never stop learning.

Well, it is one thing to make sweeping generalization on how people behave, but it is something completely different to be more attracted to some specific looks, is it not?
Does not mean I will only date people with that look. Actually, I would totally date someone who is physically not attractive to me if she is attractive in other ways.

My comment wasn't really aimed at you. It was thrown more in the direction of the ginger talk. Obviously everyone has their physical preferences or likes. Don't get TOO picky, though.
Redheads get bonus points from me, but they still need decent totals in other scores. I won't be with someone abusive or whatever just because they're a redhead, but if I had to choose between two people who were equally attractive except one was a redhead...
Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.
Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

i mean, aren't we supposed to judge people based on the beauty of their personality, not their outer beauty. oh wait, i'm a guy, never mind.
redhead is best, than brown, than blonde, than black.
duh.
