^^^
I was saying that I can't see or tell who these apparently "cool" and "popular" people are.
Everyone here talks about it like it's some form of club - but I honestly can't see any such "club".
I think a lot of people here believe their is one - but I don't think any such club exists.
Realistically the site is too large and we have too many members for it to happen.

Can't, they're not on my computer anymore.

Can I take a week or so to practice my duckface for new ones?

I know you were, but there are others who seriously believe it.

One week permitted, there isn't really any code of uniform but wolf tees, geeky tees or plain black tee's are preferable.

I am very cool now because they stopped heating the jacuzzi (bill made me almost broken) and right now I am freezing.

Hey, at least you're drinking champagne!

Now you'll be telling me that it's actually a cheap, tepid bottle of Cava and you're in a seedy, cheap hotel.

I just want to say something to some of the people in here. A person's problems *are* relative. I personally don't see how someone like Lilya could have self esteem problems or insecurities. She's everything I wish I was. But I am NOT her - and people have different problems, and just because you, me or other people seem to wish they were that cool or popular or interesting, it doesn't make the person's problems in question less real. It took me a while to learn this. But it doesn't matter if you're an aspie guy on here with no friends who can't get women, the problems of others are just as real and painful.. TO THEM.

I was having a waa waa the other day for a problem that was very real to me. Other people may look and scoff and say "you don't have any problems in that regard" but it simply isn't true.

I have learned a lot over the last few years, and more recently been able to empathise with aspie males who are lonely when I couldn't before. Trying to "get" people on a general level/see things from an unbiased way is a good thing for a lot of us, including me, to aim for.


Thank you... I really appreciate it :) You are more than fine just as you are, though, and I think most people here would agree with that.

It's very true what you say about about relativity of people's problems.

There's actually been a small update:

Guess who was in the headlines recently? Apparently this guy is now under police investigation for having physically abused a young woman.

If these claims are true (and there are a few details in the article that make me think they are), it's getting to be pretty obvious that a lot of warning signs people have spotted here have been correct and I'd better run away fast when I still can.

I just want to thank all the people who wrote here and contributed to this thread. It honestly helped to make my mind clearer about a lot of things related to the situation. I know there are also people who think that there never was a problem for me in the first place, but knowing myself well enough, I can be far too naive when it comes to men and can too easily fall for a pretty, charming guy getting hurt later. I do appreciate all the advice given here. I'll try to learn from this experience.

A womaniser and a woman-beater, he sounds like a pleasant companion and a true man.

(laughs)

I'm glad you saw sense and stayed away from this guy, Lilya. That's what friends are for, innit.
