Will Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Haha I think these are both correct, and pretty much what I was thinking. My issue is more with the fact that she's still in school whereas I'm relatively established in a career, not sure how that will work. I'll meet up with her and see how things go, nothing to lose.

Having said that, I had a great time with the girl I was with for a few months who was still in uni. I did have to tell her that I couldn't be staying up really late with her after the first few times it happened as work the next day was terrible.
Cube Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Thoughts? Other than sending her to Manchester? As already said' date=' it really depends on the person - are you at similar stages in terms of what kind of relationship you want? Just conciously try and talk more to your friends. A lot of the time I used to think of things that I could say but wouldn't be sure if they were funny or not so didn't say it. Now I just say it. I've noticed that I have done that more recently. Not just with friends but at work, too. And I am in a bar every Saturday now (afternoon, not evening) and I'm getting the confidence to talk to people outside my friends (like the staff). Still a long way to starting a conversation with a completely random person, though.

Cube Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 No, go there with friends for lunch/to chill. I don't really drink alcohol.
Serebii Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Pretty close to giving in and using dating sites now. Think I'm past the point of my argument against of them.
Ellmeister Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 The fact you're making the effort is a great start. You don't need to drink you just need to join in! I want to join a new sport when I have enough time, I don't exactly need new friends but it'd be nice to have some sporty friends in my home area. Anyone recommend some social sports easy enough to pick up?
Magnus Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Pretty close to giving in and using dating sites now. Think I'm past the point of my argument against of them. Well, your arguments were pretty flimsy, so yeah. :p Do it, Serebii! You can be OKCupid buddies with Cube. And I think Dazz uses it too! Plenty of wingmen for you.
Sheikah Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Pretty close to giving in and using dating sites now. Think I'm past the point of my argument against of them. Yes! Second you do you'll realise you were silly not to. Create a profile on one of the free ones I say. Such as plentyoffish.com.
Magnus Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Unless you have a fish fetish! Then it's the greatest website ever.
Sheikah Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Plentyoffish.com is terrible. I signed up to plentyoffish some years ago. A really hot blonde messaged me and took me out for several dates. Ah, great memories. Plentyoffish is certainly a very good site.
Cube Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 That reminds me of the time I moved to London and pretended to be a really hot blonde.

Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I want to join a new sport when I have enough time, I don't exactly need new friends but it'd be nice to have some sporty friends in my home area. Anyone recommend some social sports easy enough to pick up? On that note, I'd really love to take up karate again, but it's such a full-time occupation. A sport I could do on the side would have to be very undemanding mentally.
Ellmeister Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Karate is too much like dance moves without the music. I used to love Judo, that was hardcore. I know someone's mum is on uniform dating website, met a guy on there and yet neither of them wear uniforms!
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Karate is too much like dance moves without the music. I used to love Judo, that was hardcore. That's only the technical part of it, which is basically all there is the beginning - plus the rather intense physical exercise. Later on it gets quite a lot more hardcore!
Sheikah Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 That reminds me of the time I moved to London and pretended to be a really hot blonde. Blimey. You must have been really dedicated to drive to Cheshire every time. :p
Ashley Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Well, your arguments were pretty flimsy, so yeah. :p Do it, Serebii! You can be OKCupid buddies with Cube. And I think Dazz uses it too! Plenty of wingmen for you. Yes! Second you do you'll realise you were silly not to. Create a profile on one of the free ones I say. Such as plentyoffish.com. Just cut out the middle part and go to http://shagagamer.com/ Note: N-Europe does not endorse or use that website. Except for Iun.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 My mind is evidently not dirty enough; I read that as "Shaga Gamer" and wondered what that Far Eastern-sounding word meant. :p
Magnus Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Ugh, who'd want to have sex with a gamer? Erm, except you guys. You're all hot.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I'm pretty sure Peeps is a gamer, Magnus.
Magnus Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I'm pretty sure Peeps is a gamer, Magnus. That's a horrible thing to say.
Beast Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Well, your arguments were pretty flimsy, so yeah. :p Do it, Serebii! You can be OKCupid buddies with Cube. And I think Dazz uses it too! Plenty of wingmen for you. I used to, I closed it a long time ago. I hate my photos. I'm not self-obsessed or anything. I try taking good pictures of myself but never happens. But yeah Serebii, N-E will hook you up! haha. I might try Plentyoffish. Never tried it before so might have a go. I just really need to get a nice picture sorted! Just got no clue how to take a nice picture, lmfao! Just cut out the middle part and go to http://shagagamer.com/ Note: N-Europe does not endorse or use that website. Except for Iun. And me...soon...:awesome:
