You flatter yourself too much


Thanks for the feedback. lol I know you are right. It didn't come off well. Usually, when I do that, I am trying to encourage a guy who is afraid he won't meet someone because he isn't comfortable with his social skills. In the past when I have done this with guy friends/acquaintances, they invariably say that some girl might like them, but it won't be anybody they are attracted to or it would only because she could never get anybody else. The reason I put extraneous information about me in there is because I want them to know that women who have other options will still like them.

I don't put things well (obviously! ;) )

There are so many things I'm not good at in life, that if you knew me well, you would know if I "flatter myself," it's because the topic involves a rare something I actually do alright with. ;)

Hopefully, the apology sufficiently covered that. (I think annoyed was in there.)

I hope you're not leaving because of our disagreements.

I disagree with everyone lol.


Not at all. I love a good debate. haha The computer is aggravating my seizures/migraines (I'm not the best at moderation. haha) & since I was a little concerned that I may have crossed the line at times or been rude, I wanted to put a blanket apology out there. I was kind of an idiot, because I know PUA is something that gets to me... games generally do.... & I should have stayed off of that topic. Doh! I like when people are blunt or honest, though, so don't worry. I like it when people just are who they are. I wouldn't leave over that. & from some advice I've gotten, I may just try a break instead.

I check these forums about once a week only.. perhaps you could try that too?
As we say in my homeland: May life be gentle on you!


Thanks! & yes, once a week makes so much more sense. I don't know why I didn't think of it. I felt like I would be walking out of a room full of people having a conversation... haha As I said, I just haven't been in a forum before.

I found the map... & actually, I may have been mistaken. It could be the Aspies are all in Cuba! I can't tell.

It's funny you said that, because I'm pretty sure I met an an aspie this morning. haha My grandmother called a police man to take care of a snake trapped on our porch. She was nervous & didn't want me to do it. He knew A LOT about snakes & breeds them. If there is ever a snake problem, they call him. He had the telltale voice, so I'm pretty sure. =)

I have heard that Florida has a larger than average population on the spectrum because the KSC area draws scientist & space junkies from other places. That could be an urban legend, though. I don't live close enough to have an opinion on it.

May life be gentle on you, too! :) That's a great & wise saying.

That wasn't aimed at you, he said that in response to FaceofBoo who said that I lusted after him or something. Cos, FaceofBoo quite often feels the need to get my attention... ;)

I really enjoy your posts. You are smart and have integrity and are not afraid to speak up on important issues. Please don't leave the forum. Of course if you still want to, you should do what you feel is best for yourself.


Thanks! I really enjoyed your posts as well, actually. :) I have a lot of respect for your thought process. I think I just spent more time than I should've on it. I'm supposed to limit computer time to avoid seizures & migraines. I did get a little confused about when people were joking or not & did maybe take things to heart a little, but it really is just too much computer time. It's interesting, so moderation went right out the window! I think I'll try a break, then only get on here if I feel really fantastic in the first place. lol Take care!


Thank you so much for replying. I am glad to see you post again. I totally understand about physically needing computer breaks and finding it difficult at times to tear away from it.

Take care of yourself. Wish you all the best. Hope you will pop in when you are feeling up to it.
