Oh wow slow. o_O;; How... interesting. xDD;;

slowtrain 02-17-2010 12:53 PM

lol, I guess xD

Rylynne 02-17-2010 12:55 PM

Reminds me of when I was classmates with two ex-boyfriends of my two friends. o_O;; Who were both bitter about it. =\ </3

Iro 02-17-2010 12:59 PM

*pats Ryl*

That would be a really awkward situation to be in. D:

slowtrain 02-17-2010 12:59 PM

oh dear, that doesn't sound fun

it wasn't really all that bad with my friend's ex... he's from Scotland and they met there, and they only got married so he could get a visa to live in Australia when she got pregnant... she has some issues with him and the effort he puts in with their daughter, but it's really none of my business so I don't know much about it

Rylynne 02-17-2010 01:02 PM

@ Iroro : In the course of the semester one managed to work it out with my friend. The other... they're agreeing to disagree, which I guess is as close as they can get. xDD;;

@ slow : Nope, wasn't fun, but I tolerated it. ^^;; And I see. o_O;; What a complicated situation then. :x

Keyori 02-17-2010 02:23 PM

I've never had drunken escapades with anyone but my fiance xD

And I only dated one guy from my high school, and one other guy who was in my district. Everyone else was from outside my district.

I lived in the middle-class area where everyone thinks they're high class but aren't really, so there were a ton of snobs and not much good guys to date.

Even if they were wealthy, I couldn't date them for that. My fiance is broke xD so the money thing isn't a big deal to me.

I dont think that nearly enough people wait it out for sex. I mean, they rush and what not, and I think thats silly.

And it was kind of like that for me during high school. The only guys that liked me were friends, and that was all just awkward to me because I only saw them as friends. Then for my senior year I was in a program that had me going to the college the whole year, instead, taking full schedule of college classes and then doing a bunch of high school work on the side (busy-ass and stressful year @[email protected];; ). And as soon as I was at the college, I suddenly had all these guys that wanted me! At one point, I could count at least 10 people that I knew of that wanted to date me. My total crap feeling about no one ever really wanted me went down after that. Haha. Its not that great now, but at least I gained a little more self-confidence from the situation. And it helped that a lot of those guys were really cute. ;D

:lol: Well, I hadn't really planned on being one for so long, but whatevs. XD It didn't bother me that I wasn't getting any action really. I figured the right guy would come along eventually. And he did. It just took a lot of work to make him mine. XP He wanted to play the field in college, and I'm pretty sure he succeeded in that until I came along -- although the first year or so I knew him, we were just friends and I had to watch him be with some skanky bitches on occasion (and I was JEALOUS, boy howdy!!! :gonk:), which was painful because I was bound and determined to make him my man.

Eight years later, I'd say I'm pretty happy that I stuck with it. We've had some hard times, for sure, but it's all been a great learning experience and we're both better off for sticking things out through the bad times.


hehe. College is a place where you can definitely find plenty of boys to date! I'm glad they came a' runnin' for you! XP

I didn't have much dating luck in college, but again I had a crush on another guy friend -- who also turned out to be gay -- and now that I look back, he was pretty obvious about it. :lol: I'm a sucker for a nice gay guy I guess. :lol: :rofl: Once I'd gotten over that little crush, I put all my attention into snagging Ian sophomore year.

Cami 02-17-2010 03:23 PM

Absolutely nothing wrong with being a virgin. For some reason, there seems to be a stigma related to it, where people are embarrassed to admit they haven't had sex.

MurasakiCrown 02-17-2010 03:26 PM

Probably because to a certain extent, the world is still largely driven by religion..x.x

I'm in a long-distance relationship so there's a lot of stuff that's just not possible. lawl.

Cami 02-17-2010 04:07 PM

I'm sorry, I mistyped. I meant they're embarrassed to admit when they haven't had sex.

Having sex is pretty well the norm, now.

Rylynne 02-17-2010 04:25 PM

Hmm, that's mostly in the US context though. XP
In the Philippines it's pretty different. xDD;; Well, it's a little complicated, really. =\ Since I don't want to bore you in case you do get bored, I'll just say that social stratification plays a BIG deal with how open and/or willing people are to having and/or hearing about sex. =O Like I said, it's complicated. xDD;;
I blame the clashing of cultures here, I think. xDD;; From our more traditional culture we got from colonial Spain to the culture that the US imposed on us when it was trying to make us its 53rd state, lulz. 8DD;; Like I said, very complicated. ^^;;

Seiki Nova 02-17-2010 04:36 PM

Su, I understand about the small town thing. I have family that I go visit on occasion with my parents in Oklahoma. They live in a really tiny town in Binger. When my cousin graduated high school there, there were probably just around 100 students in the school. I don't have a problem with being in a small town with a small amount of people. I just don't feel safe like that though. Like, not safe in the physical sense, but safe in the mental sense. Being around people just gives me a sense of ease. Like everything is alright.

Especially at my college. Only 23% of students here are female.

I wasn't used to be fawned over in high school, so when I came here and there were four guys at once trying to date me, I was a bit overwhelmed x_x

And, what makes me feel most stupid is that of those four, I dated my fiance last.

But, we've stuck with it since then. There's been a handful more guys who have tried to get me to dump him but that just demonstrates to me that those guys aren't even worth my time even if I ever did become single again :talk2hand:

MurasakiCrown 02-17-2010 05:10 PM

A lot of the guys here are either gay or taken, or just not into dating. I find it amusing and somewhat stereotypical.

Cami 02-17-2010 05:54 PM

I've been considering trying out the dating thing. I've never really done it. I dated a guy for several months in high school, but since then have only gone on a total of 7 dates. I've just never really been interested.

Rylynne 02-18-2010 12:46 AM

I'm not big on the dating scene myself. xDD;;
Always too busy. >.>;; And the guys around here aren't exactly my type, per se. And, yeah, busy. xDD;;
I feel bad though for the guys I've turned down. :'< But I guess that's part of life. ^^;; Better say no than pretend to say yes. =\

slowtrain 02-18-2010 01:56 AM

I've never really dated... I went out with a guy for about 8 months in high school, but we were already really good friends, so when we did stuff together it never really felt like a 'date'

I don't really know how to approach relationships where I don't know the guy really well, I've never done anything like that :/

and the whole experience of going to college, meeting new people, living away from your parents just doesn't really happen here... unless you live out in the country or what you want to do is only available interstate, then most people don't leave home for uni... I still live with my parents, and it's only a short bus trip to uni

we don't have big campuses with dorms and all that (well there is one uni in my state that does, but there's still very little student accommodation compared to in the US, it's just not the norm), people who do move for uni either rent their own place, or live in colleges or the very small amount of student apartments that aren't on campus at all

so without living with all the people you go to uni with, you really only meet the people doing your specific course, and even then you only get to know the people in your classes really well... it's just a totally different experience

Cami 02-18-2010 02:05 AM

Off topic, I just finished reorganizing my drawers, and have come to the conclusion that I have too much stuff. XD I know I don't have as much as some of you crazy people, but I now have just short of 1500 items and 23 drawers. I added three new drawers today, and yet still have multiple drawers that are more than a page long.

Edit to Slow: I've never been the kind of person who easily pursued relationships outside of class (or work, networking events, parties, etc). In general, any of my friends who I've ended up doing stuff with on a regular basis are people who in some way pursued me. For example, my two newest friends I both met at networking events, and both of them emailed to ask if I wanted to get together for coffee and talk further. I get along with people really easily in pretty much all circumstances, but for some reason that step further has always been difficult for me to initiate.

Seiki Nova 02-18-2010 02:50 AM

I finally managed to move all my stuff from my main inventory into their color drawers today xD I have to organize the drawers now to fix how messed up they've gotten because of the event.

And then move all my 52 items back to my main inventory to figure out what colors I'm missing of all of the items in there so I can start completing stores :yes:

Cami 02-18-2010 02:58 AM

I thought you said completing scores at first, and was confused at how they related.

How many total commons are there on this site?

Seiki Nova 02-18-2010 03:03 AM

Over 6k. I'd assume that means about 4000 Female/Unisex items, and the rest male.

slowtrain 02-18-2010 03:04 AM

hummm... I haaave, 1680 items on this account... although a fair few of them are CI and EI doubles... and I haaaave 24 drawers, by layer-ish... I always find a way to split them whenever they go over the page but my new EIs and commons are still sitting in my main inventory which usually only has multi equip items that go over multiple layers

my main inventory is sitting on three pages at the moment, so I'll probably end up having to split at least one drawer by the time I've finished sorting them xD

@cami: I've never really had friends outside of school/uni... there are children of family friends around my age, but I'm not close enough with any of them to see them any time other than with family and I've never had any job long enough to make close friendships with the people I've worked with... :/

even after a year I'm still not that close with my friends from uni, I don't really see them that much outside of classes, and mostly it's just getting coffee between classes or going to look at bags and eat lunch after a class xD

mostly it's just a few close friends from high school that I hang out with... and I can't really complain, because one of them (who also happens to be my ex boyfriend xD) didn't really make any friends at uni last year and then switched to a new uni for this year

Seiki Nova 02-18-2010 03:13 AM

You guys don't even want to know my crap. I pretty much decided to make my 28 page main inventory into 12 drawers total, 9 of those being sorted by color, and the remaining three by CIs, EIs/SNGs, and Extras/stuff for sale.

Cami 02-18-2010 03:14 AM

I'd never find things in your inventory.
