I said it in the last topic.

Many introverts are using COVID as an excuse to be Person B.

GS8 12-23-2021 12:57 PM

I should have mentioned that both indivuduals have been like this years before Covid :lol

But yes, rapid test for Person A, Zoloft top-off for Person B.

I'm Person C. I'm working most of the holidays and taking 3 weeks off in January. Hopefully to go traveling with all the other 70+ year olds. Maybe engage in one of those Lemon Parties I heard about but never actually seen.

Recently decided I'm going to ask my friend of 10 years on a date. This can only go 2 ways, but it's a risk I'm willing to take.

She was one of the first friends I met from back in university in first year.

Back then I wasn't particularly interested in her and saw her just as a friend - but over time, we got to know each other more. I feel like she is someone I feel comfortable spending time with and having deep personal talks with. Also, recently met up with her after a couple years of covid, and damn she looks great.

The hardest part will be letting her know - we always hang out together with our group of friends, but I rarely get to meet with her one on one.

I'm also not sure if messaging her to hang out one on one all of a sudden would be too aggressive and completely left field. WutFace

Man this is tough...

Mr.Money 12-25-2021 07:13 PM

overthinking is gonna hurt you're game.


what goes down,goes down.

Do it! Push that doubt away for just a moment to hit the send button. It's not like you see her everyday for this to be potentially awkward.

Either she'll agree to hang out, or make up some excuse. You'll have you answer, and can proceed appropriately.

Lol so quick update:

I just creeped her IG and saw her with another dude :lawl:

Glad I made the effort to check first to avoid awkwardness.

In all honesty, I’m happy for her as my friend because I know she’s been struggling with dating as much as I have.

donk. 12-26-2021 10:22 AM

Go smash once she's single, report back later

Mr.Money 12-26-2021 10:41 AM

good investigation skills.


i do the same but as Kanye said " i'm so gifted at finding out what i don't like the most"


instantneedles 12-26-2021 01:28 PM

Thanks for the tough love guys lol, I needed to hear it.

If I were to be specific, I only saw the top half of the guy's head from the angle of the picture - for all I know it could be her father.

She doesn't have a picture that clearly shows her with another guy just yet.

I wonder - if a couple hasn't gone IG official yet, are they still testing the waters? Would I still have a chance?

Now that I got a condo and moved out, I don't feel happy due to the sentimental attachment with my parents. It's that family "cohesive-ness" emotion where that family togetherness aspect feels like it's stripped away. Not everyone mesh with their parents and want to move out ASAP, I am the opposite where I enjoy seeing parents everyday and knowing they are healthy and well (brings a sense of joy in my life). At this point in life, it's depressing to see parents in a house by themselves (literally could sleep in a different room every day for them lol).

I am giving myself one-year at the condo and then evaluate my priorities. Such as after I get married and have kids, move home so parents can help watch the kids etc.

Thanks for the perspective.

Mid twenties here, also was raised by my grandparents. Grandma is still around though health is deteriorating, and I help out around house matters quite a bit.

Trying to reconcile my feelings of wanting to move out to develop independence and have my own place, but also not wanting to leave my grandma especially. I then see a lot of my friends moving out and think - what can't I?

I know I have to be careful to not let my feelings cause resentment - If i stay home, it has to be because I want to, not because I'm "forcing" myself to.

Thinking I'll just keep saving money in the meantime..

just ask them out already - its been two days since you posted it which means you've thought about it for a year.

Just test the waters out when you strike a conversation and see the response is. Don't assume based on what you see from an online photo lol. Ask her out to grab some food and then find out what her status is etc (isn't that the part of catching up is? LOL).

My take is, don't let others influence you how you should live your life. Just because your friends are moved out, doesn't mean it applies to you. It's like saying if everyone jumped off a bridge because it's the "norm or cool thing to do", would you really go jump off a bridge too. Also everyone circumstance is different. Whether your 20, 30 or 40 etc., don't matter, as long as you feel happy where you are in life, that's all that matters.

I think in those situations it might never make sense to move out. I think a lot of people have the same thoughts about their parents or grand parents.

But that also puts you in a position where you never move out, which is okay if that's what you want.

Just messaged her a few days ago. When I asked her what she's been up to, she said she was just catching up with family and cleaning up her house - no mention of dating another guy (which is a good sign), but it doesn't completely rule out the fact that she could be.

Just curious, but what are your definitions of simping?

I feel like as a guy you kinda have to do things to show you are interested in them or they have no idea you like them.

GS8 12-31-2021 04:17 PM

Happy New Years to anyone spending it :alone:

May your 2022 have more promise.
