Dating: How's your luck? - Page 821

We are extremely close to shutting down this thread for the same reasons the PUA thread was shut down. While some of the time this thread contains actual discussion with people asking help and people giving nice advice, it often gets derailed by rubbish that should not be here. The moderation team will be trying to steer this thread in a different direction from now on. Posts of the following nature are banned: 1) ANYTHING regarding PUA. If your post contains the words 'alpha' or 'beta' or anything of that sort please don't hit post. 2) Stupid brags. You can tell us about your nice success stories with someone, but posts such as 'lol 50 Tinder matches' are a no-no. 3) Any misogynistic bullshit, including discussion about rape culture. 4) One night stands and random sex. These are basically brags that invariably devolve into gender role discussions and misogynistic comments. Last chance, guys. This thread is for dating advice and sharing dating stories. While gender roles, sociocultural norms, and our biological imperative to reproduce are all tangentially related, these subjects are not the main purpose of the thread. Please AVOID these discussions. If you want to discuss them at length, go to PMs or start a blog. If you disagree with someone's ideologies, state that you disagree with them and why they won't work from a dating standpoint and move on. We will not tolerate any lengthy derailments that aren't directly about dating. | ||

Try to get ahold of her and say exactly the same words you just told us, but to her. About how she misinterpreted the subtext, it's your first party in forever, etc. Don't mention the stuff about how she always does that. Once you're off to more stable conditions you can tackle that. The important thing to remember is that you want to paint it as an unfortunate misunderstanding and not as something that's her fault (which in my opinion it is). | ||

I'm not sure how that affects anything, but I will say that there's a lot of "hot-blooded" behavior in my dads family that folks in the States just wouldnt understand or would misinterpret. Heh. I didn't even read it like that, but it is pretty on the mark. I wouldn't call it drama like others here. She just boiled over and pulled out all the dirty laundry she could find to throw it at you in the hope she would feel better. Just watch a Mexican soap opera, it happens pretty much daily in them ![]() Now I have no idea whether Phantom's gf is a Latina, but it might also happen in other cultures. In NL she'd be classified as a raging lunatic, but Arabic cultures can also be rather hotblooded (they're just even more machista, so not too sure on the dynamics. Guess you'll have to watch some Lebanese or Egyptian soap operas to compare ). | ||

But if she hasn't responded to you yet she doesn't have interest. | ||

1. Don't be a creep. 2. Use capital letters and punctuation to form sentences. 3. Most of your messages should have a response to her and a question of your own with a question mark. 4. After each of you have exchanged between 3 to 7 messages ask if she wants to meet up. Outside of these rules almost nothing you say matters. | ||
