Hey lads and lassies. An obligatory bi-yearly "I don't understand dating" post by TSM. I hope I find you all well ;) Soooo I've been on lots of dates the last couple of years. And I've heard the refrain lots now that "Women aren't hard to understand, you just have to pay attention and listen."...

Last week I met a really nice girl who has apparently secretly liked me for a while. We got a bit drunk and I flirted with her and it was great fun. I even gave her a small kiss. All pretty cool, right? Well, this was until her roommate started telling me how much I should sleep with her...

First of all hi all. It's been ages since I've been on, I see lots of familiar names and I hope you are all well. Big love! :) So I thought I'd ask for your counsel regarding some feelings I had recently because I'm pretty annoyed about the whole situation and it's just bizarre. I find these...

I'm in my twenties, I've been on about 7 dates this year with girls that sort of age. These have been the first dates I've had, I suppose. And so far I've just been kind of...disappointed. Out of those seven dates, 3 girls were just kind of messing me about for whatever reason. They wanted...

Figured "depression" was as good a place to post this as any, I guess. To be honest, lately I've just been feeling really down. Weirdly, it's almost a "good" thing. I'm being really productive at work, but it's because I just don't really give a crap about my life outside work anymore. I'm not...

Well hello all. Me again! Back for the time-honoured tradition of a little bit of a moan...and secretly 'cos I miss you all *snuggles* :D I've been dating a few girls on and off. It sounds terrible, but a lot of the time I've been going on dates just because I'm really, really bored. Having...

So last Thursday I had a date with this girl I've liked for a while. We met up, talked for about half an hour over coffee and then got some dinner at a nice place. We didn't flirt physically so much as we did previously (given it was a first date, I think), but she still seemed really...

I think I must just be unlucky with the girls I meet, but I've noticed girls seem to mess me about a lot. I don't know why. I'm nice but I'm not spineless at all, certainly not like some guys I know who just bow to girls like they're totally superior or something. In fact, I consider myself...

Hey all. Haven't posted for a while, but I always found this site helpful, so...here's a rather long story. Probably TL;DR tbh :P I remember four years ago I was starting university. I was badly overweight, cripplingly shy and had surprisingly little social experience. I had few friends and had...

Hey guys, it's me! Another rare Solitary log-on, another confused post in Relationships :D May I ask for some advice from you all? A few different perspectives should really help :P Girls keep flirting with me lately. I know for sure I'm not imagining it now, though for the longest time I...

Man, I really did hope I wouldn't be posting here again for a while. But I just feel completely like crap at the moment, frankly, and I need to share all the bottled up melancholy! I'm in my last year of college. In a few months I'll be 23...and yet I still haven't had any kind of non-platonic...

There was this party recently with this girl I have a bit of a crush on there. She invited me along completely out of the blue, so I didn't really know anyone. Anyway, I spent most of the evening getting to know all these friends of her's. At one point, I was talking to someone I'd just met and...

I do partner dancing as a hobby, and so I come into contact with quite a few ladies. It's great fun, and I recommend it! Anyway, this has caused some strange flirting. I mean, girls acting in a way that really doesn't make sense to me. I'll start with the one story and if anyone's interested...

A few weeks back I was having a terrible day. Literally everything that could have gone wrong did in a 24 hour period. I lost about a month's worth of work, some relatives fell ill...just a totally crap time of things. By the evening I was really tired and just thoroughly fed up. Which made...

Just a quick question for discussion: when you're "single", how does that impact your conduct when it comes to interactions with people you feel attracted to? I understand it varies from person to person, but I'm just curious on what everyone else sees being "single" as. I've personally always...

This is gonna sound a bit vague I'm afraid, but my goodness I'm in a confusing situation right now! Have been around this girl socially for about 5 months now. She's really shy, and I've also been pretty shy with her overall. But I've been making a real effort to talk more recently and I feel...

I'm curious, does anyone else ever get days where it's just really, really hard to concentrate? I've got a piece of work due in tomorrow and this whole weekend I've been struggling to get it finished. I keep procrastinating and I can't seem to focus on reading up on it for any longer than about...

Anyone else played this? It's an indie top-down shooter/melee-er/strategy/stealth game set in a nightmarish version of Miami, 1989. I thought it looked rubbish from the promo material (guys wearing chicken masks?!), but then I looked at the reviews and they were all excellent, so I picked it...

In my whole span on this planet, I don't think I've accumulated a single friend who hasn't stuck the knife into me for absolutely no reason (other than some sort of petty selfish gain). This was exemplified neatly today when a work friend (and incidentally a girl who apparently "likes" me)...

Would you say that there's a point at which a person should just give up when it comes to hoping for a conventional relationship? Should we stick true to our ideals or compromise upon them? I've tried for years to tell myself that I'm not just going to settle for any random girl or even give up...
